I’m thankful grateful for a great visit to Tusk Dental. I was surprised that the staff was able to fit me in on such short notice for a Dental Exam and cleaning on the same day as my call. They were efficient and friendly throughout the visit and were more than accommodating. I was fortunate to have Dr. Vishnu Teja perform my examination AND scan for Invisalign. Dr.

Teja was an absolute delight and explained everything as she conducted the exam and the scans. I would highly recommend Dr. Teja and Tusk Dental. Great dental service, polite staff and very welcoming Docs. Thank you!

Edit: the out of pocket expense that I was shown before the procedure was not accurate and over $1k from what I was originally quoted. It is clear that the estimated patient portion was not checked through my insurance plan otherwise this situation could have been avoided. I will be returning to complete the work on my teeth and attempt to see what negotiation can be done with paying the bill. Dr.

Vishnu was very thorough in her exam of my teeth as well as explaining to me exactly what she found and the treatment plan. She even made sure to show me the out of pocket expense I would have to pay for my procedure the day before so that I would be prepared! Scheduling an appointment was very easy and very quick - I was a new patient that was seen the very next day with the procedure also being scheduled the day after my initial exam. The front desk was very friendly and welcoming. The dental Hygienist, Carolyn, was very kind and made sure I was comfortable.

This is a great place for those with anxiety about going to the dentist and also for those who feel shameful about their dental health. Dr. Vishnu's calm demeanor provided reassurance, even without many words about my poor dental health.

Dr. Vishnu was very kind, personable and understanding. She discovered I needed a few fillings and was willing to do them in the same appointment. Looking forward to continuing to work with Tusk.

Addie was amazing and knew what she was doing to take care of my x-rays and pictures. The examination was quick and easy and very comfortable. I like the scenery of the ocean on the TV. It’s a very comfortable atmosphere.
