I always hate going to the dentist and try to avoid it as much as possible. However, I had an appointment this week with Nicole and I could not be happier! Everyone in the office was so kind and helpful, Nicole did such an amazing job and thoroughly answered all my questions and concerns with next steps. I will definitely continue coming and I'm happy that the environment is so welcoming and helpful.

Very impressive staff & Dr. They would've gotten 5 ⭐ if they offered sedation or at least nitrous oxide. But they were happy to give a referral, and invite me back to get my dentures made.

I've been seeing Nicole Bedell for a while now and she have always been a wonderful Dental Hygienist to work with. She is very knowledgeable, caring, down-to-earth, and is super friendly to her patients. The front desk staff are good as well, and they always send out text messages in the advance to remind patients about their upcoming appointments.

Everyone was fantastic! From the moment I walked in the door all the way until I checked out of my appointment. Everyone was kind and professional. My doctor and her technician did a very good job on my cavity fill as well as the cleaning that was done by the dental hygienist there too. Will definitely recommend this location to family and friends!
