Dr Linda is the best..very caring and really good at her job. She did implants for me, and my new teeth look beautiful...just the right size and color for my age. They look totally natural. I see dentures on some people that are too big or too white...not the case with Dr. Linda. My teeth are beautiful.

I saw Dr Bartuska my regular dentist, this was a follow up visit trying to resolve issue on lower left, pain + sensitivity. Dr Bartuska listened, + reviewed notes regarding issue from previous visit+ attempt to resolve issue. He then explained that it may be one of two possibilities that is causing sensitivity+pain. He mentioned that he showed chart to Dr Phil for further in depth review. DR PHIL confirmed along w Dr Bartuska that root of tooth is OK. So it is either a fracture or some tiny part of root is exposed below gum line. So Dr Bartuska checked for fracture. NEGATIVE. So then he explained that he will do more bonding below gum line, + that should be the answer. Dr Bartuska numbed area, did bonding, checked bite afterward, then Polished. Issue solved, no more pain or sensitivity. DR BARTUSKA IS PHENOMINALLY EXCELLENT IN ALL HIS DENTAL SKILLS. I have been his patient over 8 yes. I am a very complex patient who has a very small mouth + very small teeth. Doing dental work on me is quite complex. I went to other dentists yes ago, and NOBODY comes close to the phenomenally excellent skill and successful procedures as Dr Bartuska.HE IS THE BEST.

Great front desk, polite and friendly...I hate going to the dentist: had a really bad past experience of not enough numbing medicine and a drilll...enough said...anyway my visit to the dental building was good...I just wish there was a better way to deaden your mouth for a root canal but I guess some pain is unavoidable. Overall good experience, good dentist, good assistant.
