Will definitely recommend. My coworker recommended this dentistry. With past experiences I have given up. My teeth are beyond bad. To the point that people would think I'm a junkie when really my teeth were drained of the vitamins and nutrients and broke. I made the appointment and I went in thinking 'yep they are going to judge hardcore' meeting with one of the nurses I told her my mouth was going to be in her nightmares. She giggled and said that she had seen worse. The process was fairly easy especially where I already know what I want done. The dentist was amazing. Everybody is easy to get along with and they don't judge. I have walked out of places for judging before they even knew the truth. This place is better than any dentist I have gone to in the new England area. Meeting and being able to be on the same page with out being judged or made to feel small makes me feel alot better. It's my first time there and they listened to me. They didn't say you should be doing this instead it was I know you want to do this but there is an option to do this other part differently but all in all I think you know you better and you are the one who makes the final decision on what you want done. I will forever be grateful for the staff at this place just from a first meeting.
