HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! Christin, Lee and Toni showed my 99 year old mother the utmost care and Dr. Christian was very thorough and answered all my questions.

Cannot speak highly enough about my experience here. I was so nervous for the procedure but they did everything in their power to make me feel comfortable and informed. Dr. Christman did a fantastic job on my gum graft and his assistants knocked it out of the park as well. Lee was who assisted on the day of my surgery and he may have set a world record for the quickest and most successful blood draw in history (and this is coming from someone who is known to pass out!) He even grabbed another colleague who came in to chat with me (ie: distract me..) after he heard I was prone to passing out. The front desk staff was a pleasure to work with and made the administration of it all so seamless. Thank you to everyone who helped make my smile so much healthier!!

The doctor is the greatest and most compassionate doctor I now know. He and his staff are very professional and great with time. He took me on as a new patient during a true emergency and healed my pain. His staff was very supportive and kind. I drove in the past two days over 3400 miles to have him help me again. He did not disappoint the second time around. Great staff, office, and doctor. Rev. Dr. Linda Kay Porter

I had emergency work done. I was scheduled with an appointment very quickly. Dr. Christman and staff were excellent. They were very friendly, professional, and patient in explaining my implant procedure, timeframe, and insurance coverage. They worked quickly, and with minimal discomfort. My follow up was great, and my implant is all set. I am very happy with the care and experience with Dr. Cristman and staff. They also get bonus points for playing great music during my time in the chair!

Dr. Edwards doesn't listen to the patient. They sent me a letter that was very unexpected in the mail. It was stating that we do not align, and it's simply because I was pushing back on them, and i had a very rare condition that needed to be treated by a surgeon. I had to get it from my General Practice Doctor. They would not even give me a referral to surgery. Dr Michael Edwards made me feel like a complete ignorant idiot when I came to his office in tears. He wouldn't listen to me when I told him this was affecting the roof of my mouth. He basically had a "suck it up" attitude and then came back in the room and apologized for being insensitive. In my notes, they stated that I called the office and was comparing prices of them pulling a tooth versus the er pulling a tooth. I'm not sure how that constitutes being dismissed as a patient. I was looked at like I was crazy the whole time I was trying to explain my condition. I kept being told to leave the areas alone and let it heal. Turns out I was right and they were wrong, and it's just an ego hit. The hygienist was getting very upset at me, questioning or rather giving her advice on where to go in the mouth. I guess we are supposed to just trust every healthcare provider to know every single answer. I guess we are supposed to keep how WE feel & what WE know to ourselves I was told they knew about my condition, but i'm actually fairly certain that Michael has never treated it. He absolutely did not know anything about root scaling and didn't even want to pull my tooth, which ended up being severely infected. After he pulled it, he said, wow, yes, we should have pulled this. It's like no kidding.This is going on in my mouth. The letter that they sent me stated that communication and understanding is not aligned. So in layman's terms, basically, they wanted to say that I was questioning their medical excellence, supposedly. I am not sure how doctor edwards did not notice on my X-rays or cbc i had fluid built up in the roof of my mouth. I spoke with his office manager, who said that A letter in the mail is normally a last ditch effort. I never even got a phone call. Considering I drove 40 plus minutes to see them and spend tons of money. You would think that the doctor would tell you the price of an extraction before he does it. You would think they would recommend you to an oral surgeon. You would think they would actually diagnose you with a condition rather than doubting if I even have it. As the letter stated dentistry is personal. Maybe they should take their own advice and listen to a person who's actually living through the issue and has a mouth they live in. I will be seeing a periodontist that was recommended by my dentist and local. The only star i'm leaving is for the office staff who does a good job. If I could leave zero stars, I would. When they were doing a cleaning, they didn't even work for more than eight minutes. I'm not sure how that constitutes a deep cleaning When i've had deeper cleanings at a general practice. Essentially thank you for taking my money. Thank you for failing to refer me to a surgeon. Thank you for ejecting me as a patient. Thank you for making me believe that this is my fault. Additionally, thank you for the 50% bone loss in my mouth that my scan 2 weeks ago showed. My condition went downhill FAST and you treated it like it was nothing. Failed to diagnose me correctly. Failed to come up with a treatment plan. Failed to spare me the pain and pull my infected tooth. Failed to refer me to surgery. Failed to recommend gum surgery or a laser that he supposedly specializes in. WOW! Not a single mention of a gum surgery which I ABSOLUTELY needed. Now I was told I may need prostethics, bone grafts, etc. and multiple surgeries. Thank you for not taking accountability for your lack of knowledge into my condition. 10/10 do NOT RECOMMEND. Find someone who is willing to listen to you, the patient. It's odd how offended doctors get when they are questioned.
