Unfortunately, I have some gum recession that I needed to get fixed. Super nervous and not excited for the procedure. Thank goodness Dr. Cwiklinski was able to help me. He and his assistant did a terrific job of calmly explaining the whole process and made it nearly pain free. They clearly know what they are doing and got the job done in a timely and efficient manner. I am so thankful to have periodontal associates and Dr. Cwiklinski to help me out on my gum recession.

I think I can speak for most that no one is ever overjoyed to go see a gum specialist. Usually you have been referred by your dentist and may be a bit nervous. Dr. Michael Cwiklinski is simply stellar on all fronts. He really takes a comprehensive personable approach to his practice. And makes an otherwise nerve wracking experience one of clarity & smooth sailing. Excellent communication and listening skills and awareness as well as attention to detail. Professional with integrity & Awesome personality. He and his staff are efficient and mindful as well as considerate. Won’t go anywhere else; simply the best.

Excellent service by Allyson. She is a dental hygienist that helped my fear of the needle disappeared. I had a terrible experience of local anesthesia in a prior dental visit and I was scared to death of pain. But Allyson was amazing I never felt the 4 injections she had to do. She did a fantastic job. Thank you can’t wait to see you next time.

As a referring dentist, I can not say enough about how wonderful this practice has been to work with over the past 20 years. They are extremely kind, conscientious and professional and all of our patients are very impressed with their experience there. Thank you all for being such wonderful professionals.
