I can’t say enough good things about Badger Smiles in Onalaska, Wisconsin. Dr. Terry Cowgill, along with his team—dental assistant Lindsey and front desk administrative assistant Kristen—deserve all the praise. Their talent, understanding, and responsiveness are beyond exceptional. I recently needed both a crown and a root canal done on short notice. The root canal was administered by the endodontic specialists right next door, and Dr. Cowgill was able to accommodate me for a same-day crown procedure using their amazing CEREC machine.

His expertise ensured the process was smooth and pain-free. Lindsey was incredibly skilled and attentive, making sure I was comfortable throughout. Kristen at the front desk was welcoming and efficient, handling my appointment and paperwork seamlessly. If I could give six stars, I absolutely would. This team truly goes above and beyond to provide outstanding dental care. Highly recommended!

Called this place from being referred, thought hey I had a rough experience at Aspin Dental. Went in for a consultation, submitted my insurance, but it took almost 1 week to even hear anything back, even with Email. tbh it was quite expensive, a realign alone was nearly $700, and a lower partial was nearly $1600. 00 with my insurance only paying $517. 00. Out of pocket I would need $1568.

00. I decided to pass on the service as it was ridiculously over priced, and not to mention a consultation was 5 minutes tops. with little to no results. Fast forward, my dog decided she needed to eat my partial and upper as a snack, So i reach out to them, and told them what had happened and even sent them pictures thinking hey I really need help here, but all they care about if lining their pockets with money and can't or won't even help someone in dire straights! I told them I do not have access to the full amount that is needed to be due, and I could max out 2 of my credit cards and give them $600. 00 for a down payment, and be in the following Friday with my entire check, (no bills need to be paid that week) and it was a big FAT NO! I'm not sure about anyone but not many people just walk around with wads of money in their pockets or in their bank accounts. I certainly don't, I live pay check to pay check, and sometime I have less than $10.

00 to my name after all bills are paid when i get paid, and I get paid bi weekly. I called around, Aspin never answers their phones EVER! I wouldn't even take my fish to Aspin! I called another Dentist office, told them my issue, ran my insurance, and scheduled an appointment, out of pocket for a lower partial is only going to cost me $900. 00, and they don't need it up front either, unlike other money hungry business's! at least they understand and are compassionate about their guest! I wouldn't recommend this place, unless you have bricks of money just laying around loosely, just saying! check around the no name dentist offices, before this one. I said what I said!

My daughter went to Terry at my recommendations when she was needing urgent dental care. I've known Terry since grade school. We knew he would be a dentist at a very early age; especially when he gave a presentation to the class in grade school on how to floss.
