My new patient appt; needed a cleaning and general check up. Intake process was easy and I was taken back for my appointment almost immediately. Angel was my hygienist; very kind and thorough…which I really appreciated because I’m kind of a chicken. The dentist I saw today was covering for Dr Monika, and was also very thorough; answered all my questions. They had state of the art equipment throughout. It was a great experience and I’ll be back for my next routine appointment in 6 months; I highly recommend this dental practice.

I have been here 3 times seen 2 different providers and I'm impressed every time. I had really bad composite build up and gum disease and they are helping me get it in check. I appreciate these guys so much! Embarrassing but I posted my before and after because it's really such an amazing difference.

I was very hesitant about posting this because I have never written a bad review but I feel like this experience should be shared about this office. I went to the dentist (sunrise smiles in Idahofalls) back in august. They examined me and told me that they recommended I fix a few of my teeth with fillings. One of those teeth happened to be my upper left had tooth. I noticed pain after it was filled and called several times. They told me it was normal and I needed to wait. Well…the pain only got worse. There was a throb and shooting pain anytime I ate anything cold or hot. Ever since so got this tooth “fixed” it’s also catches food worse then any I’ve ever had. I called once again and they told me to wait. After calling several times they told me to finally come back in. They examined me briefly before telling me that the filling wasn't lined up because of the shape of my tooth and that it was most likely what was now causing decay. They then informed me that I now needed a crown. I asked if they would redo my filling if at all possible to fix the food trap. They told me no and that I needed the crown. When I asked about price they quoted me almost $1,500 for a crown on the tooth that they were supposed to fix back in august. I was upset and pretty freaking confused to say the least. So I went and got a second opinion. The dentist that I saw is a family friend and examined my tooth. He told me I needed to get my filling redone and if it didn’t get better to go forward with the crown but that he wouldn’t rush it in fear that the crown would be a root canal anyway. After talking with him I called back sunrise smiles and explained what I had learned in my appointment to get a second opinion. They told me they could not redo the filling. They then told me if I was still hurting they could do the crown but they would not cover it even tho they were the ones who had messed up my tooth. Fast forward to now. I have waited to see if the tooth would get better, I waited until my sinus cleared up, I got a second opinion, and waited for things to shape up. It definitely hasn’t. I am now even more sensitive to hot and cold, I get shooting pains in my tooth that give me headaches and zinging in the nerve. Unfortunately I think the crown and filling are now completely out of picture as I now believe I will need a root canal. So sad to say I will definitely be taking my service elsewhere.

I had a chipped tooth, and Dr. Monika was able to fit me into her schedule to have it fixed the same day as my cleaning. I appreciated her attention to detail, the quality of her dental work, and her professional, caring demeanor. Angel is a wonderful hygienist, he was very gentle but thorough with my cleaning. He gave insightful advice and guided me through the appointment in a calm, reassuring way that made everything feel easy and comfortable.

As someone who hasn't been to the dentist in almost 2 decades due to some childhood dentist trauma. Shannon did amazing offering me all the comforts possible for just a simple cleaning. Also changed my kids from their pediatric dentist to them and they love it.
