My orthodontist recommended Pleasant Valley Dentistry. Excellent service and you can tell that they really and truly do care about your oral health. I traveled from Boston to come see them and I'm glad I did.

Pleasant Valley Dentistry has completely changed my smile/life for the better. Dr. Tom is a total professional with exceptional attention to detail and skill. His care has not only repaired my smile/teeth but restored my confidence and got me ready for my wedding! Their staff is well informed, accommodating, and flexible with scheduling. I recommend them to anyone I can tell them about. If you've neglected your teeth and are looking to start the process of repairing them look no further they are the best!

I haven't been to a dentist in a very long time due to multiple reasons but mostly because of bad experiences with dentists in the past. This office from the front desk to the hygienist to the dentist herself I cannot say enough about. They are kind, compassionate and very caring. Sure most places should be that way but they are so genuine here. It's exactly the right place for someone like me. Catrina the hygienist is absolutely amazing. She is so sweet and is so easy to talk to which helps with the anxiety of being there in the first place! Dr. Theresa is also amazing, she truly cares about your health and wellness and wants the best care for you. They are not pushy or impatient. I am actually for the first time in years looking forward to getting my dental health on track, something I have avoided for so long. I could go on and on but I will say this, if you are afraid to go to the dentist don't be! Give them a try you won't be disappointed. Do yourself a favor and let them take the care you need to get back to or continue your great dental health.

This was my first visit with Pleasant Valley Dentistry, and I was impressed by the thoroughness and quality of the assessment and suggested treatment. The office is bright, clean and modern including the tools used in assessment and treatment. I would give 5 stars for the above, but I decided on 4 stars because I wasn't impressed with their self-pay policies and procedures. Nevertheless, I do recommend them.

Dr. Susienke is a fantastic dentist!! She is kind, thorough, informative, professional, super gentle and extremely good at what she does. Every time I have been to this practice, everyone has taken amazing care of me. Unfortunately I get extremely anxious about having work done on my teeth (this visit was a crown...yikes). But Dr. Susienke and her team always ease my mind and take excellent care of me!! I would highly recommend her!!

This was only my first visit but everything about it was exceptional from start to finish. Everyone here is so kind, professional and knowledgeable. They reviewed everything thoroughly and came up with a starting plan that they made sure I was comfortable with. I left feeling like they have my best interest at heart and that they would help me achieve my goals the best way possible. I would definitely recommend and already glad I've found them.

This is by far the most positive experience I have ever had at a dental office. Everyone in the office is kind and welcoming. They make every effort to ensure things are safe, sanitized, and COVID compliant. They are thorough with explanations of all dental processes in terms understandable to the average person. I cannot speak highly enough about Pleasant Valley! I have already recommended them to my family and friends!

As someone with some pretty severe dental anxiety, I'm fortunate to go to Pleasant Valley Dentistry. They take every measure to make their clients comfortable and are patient with me even though I'm not the easiest to work with. If you are not the most comfortable getting your teeth worked on, like me, I guarantee you will find comfort here!
