Roots Dental and their people are top notch. I had some dental work that needed to be done that I was very nervous about, and they were extremely patient and accommodating throughout the whole process. The office is gorgeous and I always feel deeply cared for by everyone from the front desk, to the dental assistants, to Dr. Clarkson himself. I would never go anywhere else in Bellingham!

Dr Clarkman is the real deal. I’ve had a lot of dental work done over the years, and he’s a standout. Only one other dentist with decades more experience was able to offer comparable work, at twice the price. Everywhere else was subpar. The whole office is down to earth and easy to be around. Ethan is exceptional as well. He could put literally anyone at ease. I’ve found my lifelong dentist, and I’m very happy about it. Good luck finding better in Bellingham.

They have state-of-the-art equipment. They are very direct and kind at the same time. It's a wonderful atmosphere. My husband has avoided the dentist for 20 years or more but after meeting them he felt comfortable and felt they were down to earth and trustworthy. They still have the human element while getting to the point and being very professional.
I scouted this dentist for almost 6 months before I decided to use them. I just kept getting person after person who were telling me what a wonderful dentist they are, so I started to believe it and I'm glad that I did. It's a great team.

I have been a patient here since before Roots was Roots. Since the shift, I have been completely satisfied with every interaction and appointment. They are timely in their requests/reminders for appointments. Super kind and respectful when issues arise regarding payment or scheduling. Their work on my teeth has kept me from cavities for years now! I cannot recommend them more! If you need a reliable Dentist choose Roots Dental!

I love this place. When you check in they are so welcoming and patient with me. Dr. Clarkman is so informative about what is going on and he will not take advantage of you. If you do not need something done he does not do it. My son had a small cavity and he said if you take care of this, I have seen this small of a cavity go away and it did. Other dentist would have dove right in and charged you for it. I trust him completely. Not a huge chain business. You don’t find those much anymore. Highly recommend.
