Went in today to get assessments on work I needed done and to set up and plan to get everything taken care! I suffer from severe generalized anxiety and the... Read More dentist makes that 10x worse. Well not at this office. I’ve never felt more comfortable in a dentist office in my life. The receptionists and girls behind the desk were welcoming and some of the friendliest people you can find. With nerves still running high I was then introduced to my dental assistant and while I’m terrible with remembering names she truly was fantastic at lessening the anxiousness and not making me feel terrible for the way my teeth look. Then comes Dr. Price. Truly the first dentist I’ve ever found that put me at peace with being there and needing work done. I’ve always had previous dentists and assistants lecture me and make me feel worse than I already did about the condition of my mouth and teeth. Not the case with Dr. Price. Hands down the best dentist I’ve had and that’s before I’ve had a second of work done. His detailed explanation of things and complete honesty was such a blessing for me because I didn’t feel an ounce of embarrassment like I normally would. Felt like I was talking to a friend that I’ve known for years. And there was not an instance where I felt like they were trying to upcharge or upsell things that really weren’t necessary being that we are getting everything taken care of on time. Weird to say but after my visit today I’m actually excited to get back in there and get myself taken care of finally! Truly an amazing staff from top to bottom!

Our Approach to Comfortable Care
We want our patients to feel as comfortable as possible at our practice, which is why our dentists take a gentle approach to care and offer sedation options. With nitrous oxide and mild oral sedation, patients can feel calm during their visits with us. If you are nervous about scheduling any type of dentistry appointment, ask us how sedation can be used to alleviate your anxiety.
Advanced technology offers many benefits. Cone beam scanning and 3-D x-rays help us accurately diagnose dental problems so we can provide high-quality care. Our dentists also offer CEREC same-day crowns, which are more convenient for patients. Overall, the state-of-the-art technology we use enables us to provide patients with quicker, more comfortable treatment.

How to Know
It's Time to Visit the Dentist
It's Been More Than Six Months
If you have gone longer than six months without seeing a dentist, plaque and tartar can accumulate and begin to penetrate the protective enamel.
You Are Experiencing Tooth Pain
If you experience tooth pain when chewing or eating hot, cold, or sweet foods, it could be an indication of a dental problem.
You Have a Chipped, Fractured, or Broken Tooth
A broken tooth is more vulnerable to bacterial infection, and the tooth should be treated as soon as possible to prevent further dental problems.
You Are Unhappy With the Appearance of Your Smile
If you are unhappy with your dental appearance due to cosmetic issues like tooth discoloration or a health issue like a missing tooth, we can help.
