| - Who looks forward to a dental appointment as a break from a hectic day? It sounds bizarre, but that's how I feel whenever I see to Dr. Turner, Dr. Price, and Nicole, the best dental hygienist ever.
The facility itself is clean, calm, and relaxing - more Valley Ho than dental office. Every detail has been considered - shaded parking for guests, a beautiful courtyard, a comfortable waiting area with bottled water, bathrooms with rolled hand towelettes and toothbrushes. When you sit in the dental chair, you overlook a shaded garden. They will give you headphones for music, a blanket if you are cold, and are generally very attuned to your well-being during your visit.
Each and every staff member is warm and professional. On a purely superficial level, everyone has very nice teeth, the dental uniforms match the building decor, and the staff wear little Star Trek things on their shirts to communicate with each other which I've always found intriguing. More importantly they will remember you after your first visit (or at least pretend to, and that's good enough for me!)
In addition to being incredibly friendly and able to put you at ease, Nicole is thorough, diligent, yet gentle when she works on your teeth. She and the other hygienists here are very careful about checking in to see how you are doing. They make sure you feel no pain - or are numbed to your comfort level - during more "fun" procedures. I like that Nicole will point out any minor problem areas calmly and clearly but without being alarmist and freaking me out.
Dr. Turner is friendly, informative, and doesn't act like he's in a big important rush to get to the next patient. He has done some bonding on my teeth and he matched my color and tooth shape perfectly - best I've ever had.
I really appreciate the fantastic professionals at this dental practice and the care they have given me over the past 5+ years. Thank you!
