The entire staff was amazing and Dr. Rafoth made everything extremely comfortable and informative for someone like myself who hadn’t been to the dentist in quite a while. Highly recommend Lyons Creek Dental.

I’ve been seeing Dr. Chris Rafoth for as long as I can remember (15 years?), and I couldn’t be more impressed with the level of care he provides. He’s truly invested in his patients and takes the time to clearly explain any dental concerns, offering multiple solutions in a way that feels collaborative and never pressured.

It’s obvious he cares deeply about his work, his patients, and the overall experience in his practice. You feel like you’re in good hands from the moment you walk in. Highly recommend!

I don't usually write reviews but I just gotta say, Dr. Chris is the best dentist I've ever seen. He's very professional, respectful, knowledgeable, thorough and just straight up a cool dude! He made me feel very comfortable. Someone who really cares about his patients. All smiles from the staff, super friendly and made us feel welcome.

Just the best! I wish every clinic are like this. Definitely a gem, glad we found you guys! Thank you Dr. Chris and everyone from your team.

I had one of my front teeth laminated(labial veneer) about two and half months ago in this office (3/31/25), at beginning the front desk told me that it will cost me total $500ish, I paid $100 upfront and paid $424 immediately after the work done. But I received another bill of $250 a few weeks later, when I asked them why they charged me this another $250? they explained that this $250 is the uncovered insurance charge and they also explained to my wife that they have already told me before the treatment( actually they never told me there will be possible $250 charge).

They lied to my wife, their explanations were completely different from what they explained to me, when I called them to ask why the front desk didn't inform me the possible insurance charge, they explained that the front desk didn't know it at that time, I think this is a kind of cheating to me, they lied to my wife and me. Although I have paid them the $255, my wife and me decided to leave this office immediately.

I highly recommend finding another dentist than this one
