| - Most people don't enjoy going to the dentist, but Dr. Wills and the staff at Current Dental are clearly on a mission to change that.
The receptionists are super friendly and greet everyone with a smile. The reception/waiting area is nicely designed and the leather club chairs are really comfortable. Unfortunately I didn't get to sit in them long, because right when my appointment time arrived, they called me in (unlike other dentists where you wait 30+ minutes to be called). I love how streamlined everything is, these guys are organized and know what they're doing.
The hygienist did my cleaning first, and she was really sweet and personable. She did a very thorough job and explained what she was doing at each phase of the cleaning, checking in with me constantly to make sure I was comfortable.
The cleaning went off without a hitch, so next up were a couple fillings I had put off for over a year. I waited literally like 2 minutes and Dr. Wills and his assistant (Simon?) were already there to greet me and to start working on my teeth.
The doctor made a few jokes and got me comfortable while I was getting numb. The process they use keeps you extremely comfortable and although I'm not an anxious person, if I was I think I would be very at-ease from the way they do things here. My fillings were done in like 15-20 minutes from start to finish. Dr. Wills even took before & after photos of my teeth to show me where my cavities were and how the fillings turned out; this guy is a true artist.
When we were finishing up, the doctor informed me that because one of my fillings was so deep, I might have sensitivity for a couple weeks. After the anesthesia wore off, I was hesitant but drank some ice water; no pain, none. I made dinner and very carefully tried chewing on the side he worked on; no pain. I increased to normal chewing at full force, and still no pain. Today I had a coffee, thinking maybe instead of cold sensitivity I would be sensitive to heat, again zero pain.
Both fillings are smooth and feel as if I didn't even get anything done. I'm extremely happy with how my teeth turned out, and with how pleasurable the experience was to get them taken care of. Now that I have found such a great dentist, I won't put off going to get future checkups and cleanings because I am confident that I'll get the best quality treatment, my time will be respected, and I will be made as comfortable as possible.
