This office and the folks who work there are welcoming and very capable. Scheduling was easy and I was able to get an earlier appointment when a cancellation opened up a time slot. Barbara explained everything to me as the appointment progressed. The mouth & teeth exam was thorough and a treatment plan well mapped out. An overall calming atmosphere makes for a pleasant dental visit.

If you’re looking for a great Dentist you’ve got to try Gettysburg Smiles! Dr Tempel is First Class and her staff go above and beyond to make your visit pleasant and comfortable. Props to her Dental Hygienist Barbara. I’ve never had another hygienist take the time to make the experience pain-free and thorough at the same time!

My recent teeth cleaning appointment was great. Barbara showed me some tooth brushing and flossing techniques that should help me. I appreciate all the time and care Dr Temple and her staff to keep my smile looking good!

A Perfectionist. I am writing this review for Rita Tempel and associates. I am 37 years old and had not seen a dentist since I was 20 years old. The reason for my initial visit was because a sensitive spot on one of my wisdom teeth - they needed to be removed. She was quick to have an oral surgeon refered to me and set up for the removal process. I had also gotten Periodontal gum disease due to not seeing a dentist and having plaque buildup below the gums. She had been able to set up a treatment plan that included deep root scaling to remove the plaque, teeth cleaning, periodontal disease treatment, stain removal, and finally resin fillings. The treatment plan has taken the entirety of 2025 to complete and I am on my way to the last appointment! The process was slowed on my end and visitations had to be spread out due to no dental insurance. I was able to work with them to open an account and take advantage of 6 month no interest promotional plans per visitation instead of paying a full lump sum out of pocket. Will recommend as she is a perfectionist and takes her time to ensure that the disease has recessed and no longer evident before doing the fillings. The resin is not noticeable as the color matching has a wide range to choose from. No pain - no stereotypical dentist inducing fear. It is an in an out experience for a perfect appointment. Don't wait too late even if you have no insurance to schedule with her as there is a reason why she has won awards in the area and has a solid backlog with quite the team to help her out with appointments. Appreciate your work and will see you later this month for my final treatment! -Brandon S

Barbara goes above and beyond professional hygienic skills. She is thorough, calm, and polite at all times. Made the experience worthwhile with minimal anxiety on my part. Kudos!
