The dental hygienist Laurie did a very competent dental cleaning and exam with totally no discomfort. She is a very competent hygienist. Dr. Banderet is a wonderful dentist, extremely competent and professional. I would recommend Dr. Banderets practice

Had problems with a broken tooth. Dr. Cindy B. not only made me safe but gave me options for further care options that fit my budget. She's not only a wonderful clinician but a person I'd want as a friend!

We found Dr. Banderet because another dentist told me I needed to replace a crown that was only three years old. I went to Dr. Banderet for second opinion only to confirm my suspicions that nothing was wrong with my crown. Our whole family have been patients ever since. Dr. Banderet and her entire staff are kind and professional. We actually enjoy going in for our cleanings and we know we can count on them to give us good, honest care.

The experience is fine as far as dental work goes, but they seem to drop the ball when communicating what you owe after insurance. You can be told your insurance took care of it only to get a bill in the mail later showing you where not actually covered for all of it. They have a website set up, but unable to pay unless it's in person or you are one of the few people in the world still mailing out paper checks.

While no one really enjoys going to the dentist, Dr Banderet and her team made this a great experience. She took the time to get to know you, and was very personable and professional. Her staff was also excellent, just as thoughtful and caring. On the patients side, it is truly comforting when your health care providers take time to develop a rapport with their patients. I am so pleased that I found these dedicated folks!

Orchard dental is the place to go! The staff is welcoming & accommodating, our hygienist is extremely caring & personable, and the doc is competent & truly interested in addressing any of my concerns in the best way possible. They also have cutting-edge equipment. You'll experience top-of-the-line dentistry in a home-grown, down-to-earth atmosphere. Orchard is family friendly: I have 5 kids 7 to 2 years old and I have no problem bringing them in for back-to-back/simultaneous appointments.
