I've been coming to Tietan Dental for decades. Love my favorite dental hygienist (Debbie!) - she is amazing. I just started seeing Dr. O since Dr. Don retired. I'm thrilled to have such great care from Dr. O and Debbie. Cheers!

I called with a dental emergency on a Friday morning and was in the dental chair in less than two hours. The service provided was top quality and I was treated with respect even though it had to have thrown them off schedule for the day. The solution chosen was the least expensive option and is working perfectly!

Amazing job during an extraction, I went in hoping for the best, but expecting the worst. Fortunately, Dr. Mertz was in and out in 25 minutes, with almost zero pain, and the after care is super easy due to the phenomenol job done by Dr. Mertz... all in all the best experience I've had in a long time has been at Tietan Dental, with a 10/10 experience, I will definitely be going back for all my dental needs
