So I HATE the dentist. I'd rather stab myself in the eye with a spoon. But being a Mom now I knew it was important to get my daughter started right with the dentist and hide my anxiety about it. I tried to talk myself out of going all day, but man I am glad we went. They started with my daughter (she's 3) and were absolutely amazing!! I can't thank Ashton enough for taking her time with Peyton and making sure she had a positive experience. She explained every single tool, let her play with some of them, was engaged and personable with her. She turned cartoons on the tv for her and even got my 3 year old to let her clean her teeth at her first visit. I was shocked and as a mother, ecstatic. Ashton is a true gem. For myself, I also had a great experiences. I explained my anxiety and they made sure to also explain everything to me and I felt completely comfortable after a few minutes. Dr Mitchell was great about going over my teeth, explaining things and being positive. I made an appt for two weeks from now to correct some things. While I'm not exactly excited about it, I have to say I'm not completely dreading it and I look forward to seeing the staff at Smiles for Life again. Highly recommend this office to anyone.
