My visit was fantastic. Staff was great to deal with from check-in, to X-rays, Exam, cleaning, and checkout. X-rays were quick and efficient. Cleaning was great. Dr. Rushmore was excellent, explaining my X-rays to me and proving a unique insight. Had a cavity filled and it was about as painless as it could be. She works quickly and efficiently. Will be returning.

Dr. Powless and the entire staff are great! From my dental cleanings with Megan or Whitney to my implants with Dr. Powless and Kim, everyone has been exceptional. The front desk staff are always welcoming which starts off each visit on the right path.

I found this office through word of mouth, and I'm so grateful I did. I wanted a complete restoration after decades of teeth clenching, and Dr. Matos performed an incredible transformation using zirconia crowns and an implant. He did a fantastic job. I get asked multiple times a week how I keep my teeth so white! Dr. Powless is one of the kindest and funniest people you'll ever meet, and he truly makes dental visits enjoyable. My entire family is treated at this office, and every single person—from the front desk to the hygienists—makes you feel welcomed and valued. I cannot recommend this office highly enough. If you're considering a restoration, see Dr. Matos!

Terrible place! Perform services on you without verifying or getting your permission to provide a service that is not covered by insurance, then slap you with a $200 bill like it’s no big deal. Run run run! Do not go here! They are money hungry! Not for nothing, I’ve been loyal to this place for 8+ years and this is how they treat loyalty. They changed and performed services on me without my consent. I was booked for a cleaning and nothing else. I was then told I was due for X-rays and that it was covered. It was not. Not my fault or insurances fault. It is the responsibility of your facility to give your customers the correct information prior to charging them. If it was not covered. I wouldn’t have done it. We put our trust in you to guide us through your services.

I had a great experience for the first time. Haven’t been to the dentist in about 10 years. Loved Dr. Matos and his assistant was lovely. I had Debbie clean my teeth and she was a gentle touch. She was informative and caring. Loved the vibes. I know this place is newly built and very clean. Even the front desk girls were inviting and smiling. I hope it stays this way.
