Dr. Murry Thompson has made me able to smile proudly! He is so good at what he does and so informative in the process of dentures! The whole crew are very friendly which has been nice. The whole process can be scary but I felt at ease with this crew at Pierre Dental! 馃憤馃榿

Professional and friendly staff go out their to help you and making the trip to the dentist feel at ease. The staff and Dentists at DDS are very professional and care about their patients. They ask you how your doing? They don't want your trip to the Dentist to be painful one. They give you different choices in treatment so you way all your options after you have all the information. This way you can ask questions and make inform choice. They treat both you and your family with respect. Some people are scared of the dentist chair you don't have to be with Dr. Thompson as your Dentist. It also important you suffer as little as possible why your being treated. He goes out his way to make of that in fact both Dentists do they ask you several time how your doing if your in any pain. He also make sure the area he going to be working good numb outed before starting working on the tooth. Like I said very professional staff and caring Dentists.actually I give the place 10 stars that's how good and professional they are best Dental Clinic in area. You know they want to help people take care of their teeth.

Unfortunately I have bad experience with them. They did a filling for my wife. The same day she flew to Taxes. Next day she got toothache it was the same tooth which dentist Bechtold fixed. After a while she got very strong toothache, she couldn鈥檛 sleep, she cried. In morning she went to another dentist in Amarillo, Texas. This new dentist did a root canal for her. Also this new dentist mentioned the Bechtold鈥檚 filling was to big which pinched the nerve and that was the reason of my wife鈥檚 pain. And nerve started dying. So it was a lot of stress and money. I asked Bechtold to help us paying some of the bills but he refused. Maybe Bechtold is good man and good specialist, maybe it鈥檚 just my wife is unlucky. But she never had pain before she visited his clinic. She felt some cosmetic inconvenience. But she got toothache next day after Bechtold did a filling. So I assume there was some mistake. I don鈥檛 Also this dentist mentioned the Bechtold鈥檚 filling was to big which pinched the nerve and that was the reason of my wife鈥檚 pain know. Just want to share with you guy. Have a good day! Stay healthy!
