I had a FANTASTIC experience receiving my very first dental implant at Dr. Holden's. Nothing was rushed and all questions and concerns were thoroughly addressed. My implant is now almost 1 year old and I couldn't be happier. Dr. Holden certainly knows what he is doing and I wouldn't dream of going anywhere else should I ever require additional implants in the future.

Dr. Barry Holden is, in my opinion, an excellent practitioner who is quite "particular" and "exacting", with regard to how procedures are planned and implemented. He also seeks out my thoughts about the long-term goals of my treatment and then gives me options to help reach those goals. In addition, he and his staff emphasize postoperative care to hasten my recovery.
However, the most notable aspect of his practice, is not his clinical acumen and precise work, but his ever-present, genuine, pleasant demeanor. Besides being a medical professional, he is the kind of person you would just like to sit down with and chat.

Dr Holden (and his staff) is simply fantastic. He has such a great demeanor from his decades of experience caring for patients and teaching the next generation. I valued hearing everything that he explained to me and felt confident and appreciative that I was able to be in his care.

I had a tooth extracted. Everything went smoothly and with little discomfort post surgery. Dr. Holden and the staff are very professional, take the time to explain your procedure, and have genuine concern for your dental health.

It was a very brief discussion. I had been in the chair for an hour with a very talented girl scraping the backs of my teeth.
There were several things that preceded that moment with as I have known Barry for many years. He came in, we had a short discussion and then said he was very pleased with the result.

About Holden Barry L DMD, PC
Barry L. Holden, DMD, PC is a periodontal and dental implant practice with offices in State College and Williamsport, Pennsylvania. The practice focuses on gum health, bone regeneration, and implant dentistry, offering dental implants as a more secure alternative to traditional dentures and bridges. With implants, titanium posts are placed to support gum tissue and jawbone density much like the roots of a natural tooth.
Patients considering dental implants can expect a specialty-focused approach that looks at the health of the gums, teeth, and bone together rather than treating implants as a standalone procedure. The practice also offers sedation dentistry, including a consulting board-certified anesthesiologist for patients who need general anesthesia, to help ease anxiety during treatment. The team describes its goal as restoring and maintaining both dental health and patient confidence over the long term.
