Thank you for your call today and giving me a September 2026 appointment for a five-minute doctor examination and cleaning my teeth.
I really believe that this is simply outrageous! My doctors in Turkey (three highly qualified Professors) worked on my almost non-existing teeth for two weeks (nearly every single day). At the end, they gave me a new life (see the attached photos). Now that I am back to the US, I cannot even get a simple appointment until September 2026. Wow!
I am very sorry but tomorrow I will look for a new dentist for my needs. That said, I am truly grateful for all the help and hard work I received from Allison for many years. She is simply wonderful. God bless her!
Sincerely yours,
Prof. Silay

This is a very clean, modern office. Everyone there was very nice. Rachel (my hygenist) made me feel very comfortable by talking with me the entire time. She was also very informative and knowledgeable about different products and such that she recommended for me. I would definitely send family and friends here.

Bloomington Dental is always awesome from the friendly front office to the to the people in back. This time I had just had back surgery and the hygienist took extra care to ensure that I was comfortable throughout the exam

Today was my first visit at Bloomington Dental Group and I was so pleased with my care and treatment from the start of my appointment to the end. The staff was very cordial and professional. Bethany did an excellent job cleaning my teeth and giving me helpful tips on dental care. Dr. Parker was so kind and took her time to welcome me to their office as a new patient! I look forward to my next visit as my first visit exceeded all my expectations!

The Bloomington Dental Group has been my choice for dental work for more years than I can remember, which is by way of saying they are impressively professional and always friendly, thus my return twice a year.

About Bloomington Dental Group
Bloomington Dental Group is a general and cosmetic dentistry practice located at 907 West 2nd Street in Bloomington, Indiana. The practice describes its mission as helping patients live healthier lives in a caring, nurturing environment where comfort and health come first. Its services range from preventive care such as teeth cleanings, checkups, sealants and gum disease treatment to cosmetic treatments including porcelain veneers, dental bonding, inlays and onlays, teeth whitening and same-visit CEREC restorations, along with restorative dentistry such as fillings, crowns, bridges, non-surgical root canals, tooth extractions and dental implants. Child dentistry is also offered.
For patients missing teeth, the practice explains that dental implants are small titanium posts placed in the jaw bone to serve as a foundation for replacement teeth that look, feel and function naturally, and that they help preserve facial structure by preventing bone loss. Implant consultations begin with a dental and radiographic examination and health history, and the practice notes that a patient's needs may be addressed by its own dentists or by an oral and maxillofacial surgeon the practice refers to. The practice also offers a membership plan, extended office hours on select days and appointment reminders, and it serves patients from Bloomington as well as nearby communities including Bedford, Martinsville, Ellettsville, Nashville, Bloomfield and Spencer.
