As far as dentists go, these guys are good (meaning I hate going to the dentist. Any dentist) What I appreciate about these guys is their care, procedures, equipment and non pushy approach. Having said that though, dentists are in the field of "perfection" so most recommend doing things to your teeth to achieve that. I myself prefer the look of a somewhat original smile, (a crooked tooth here and there does not make me think one needs braces!) The difference I have found at this office is that they listen to you, allow you to question things and gain a full understanding of what is being recommended/suggested, and then allow you to make your own decision with freedom. Bravo.
