I have alot of dental trauma and they have literally made it easy for me to go back to a dentist after 4 years of being petrified. I had my first cleaning a few months ago and they explained everything step and it was the same way today after I got my first ever cavity taken care of. They made sure I was comfortable and even offered to hold my hand during the injection process. I cannot recommend them enough. As a Mental health nurse I can say they appear to be very trauma informed and their caring and gentle ways are unexplainably helpful. Take the leap if you're on the fence you wont be disappointed.

Shoutout to Angie! This was my first time having her as my hygienist and she did a wonderful job. Angie was very thorough and informative while performing my cleaning. She was so easy to connect with and very kind :)

Really great with my son, he has a fear of laying all the way down while in doctors offices. They were really patient with him and compromised with his fears. Awesome first trip to the dentist.

Had my first visit today after transferring in from another practice - replacement of a crown. Lovely experience! Beautiful office, friendly people, excellent results. Gotta love a dentist who hums while he works!
