"If you need a new dentist this is the best place to go. I had alot of work done was scared and they are awesome at making you feel comfortable. I would never go anywhere else."

Andrea D.

"I am new to the area and a former Dental Hygienist. Nicole has a great personality and did an awesome job cleaning my teeth! It turned out that I had a small chewing surface that needed a filling. Dr. Nelson filled my tooth and it was super easy. When she numbed the area I barely even knew that she was doing it. She shared about her weekend and I was so focused that she was done before I knew it. Great office. As a former dental health professional who is a very discerning customer - I recommend this office."

Sara K.

"Love going there for my dental needs."
