I had to have a tooth pulled per my dentist. He sent me to this office and they immediately put me at ease. They explained every aspect. They were calm and nice to me the whole time. They said I wouldn’t have anything to worry about and they were right. The cost was sufficient. The treatment was amazing. I will totally suggest this office to anyone who needs a tooth removal AND is nervous like I was.
