I have been bringing my son since he was a toddler and he is now 15, the team is always professional but yet patient and caring. They helped with my sons fear of the dentist. They are top notch

here to again warn anyone not to go to this dentist. i've been in genuinely excruciating pain from a cavity being filled way too close to the nerve for around two months. had to take every single AP exam, test, final, etc. with a splitting headache and ~4 hours of sleep since i literally CANNOT SLEEP due to the pain.

how are you a licensed dentist and CANT FILL A CAVITY? need to pay $1000 FOR A ROOT CANAL because the dentist CANNOT FILL A CAVITY. what a joke. thank you tooth fairy world for genuinely putting me in the most miserable pain of my life and ruining my future -- i'm a junior in high school if that gives you guys an idea of how important those tests were this year, that i had to take with this awful pain. please -- do not ever go here unless you want your entire life disrupted because a dentist can't fill a cavity right

friendly staff. can't fill cavities. i have two cavities that were filled and they were filled way too close to the nerve and the bite was wrong. i have been suffering with horrible pain for months and have had to take a lot of tylenol every day to curb the pain. i need a root canal & basically i had to pay money for cavities filled. . . which now just need to be removed.

. . and i have to pay more money. . . and i'm in a lot of pain. great. go here for teeth cleaning and nothing else
