Not only is Dr. Koppikar gentle during procedures (he has done a crown and fillings for me), but he makes sure that you are very comfortable before, during and after an examination/procedure. He breaks things down in great detail, and doesn't make you feel like he is recommending procedures just to make money. His staff is also very friendly and accommodating. I would highly recommend anyone who is looking for a new dentist to check out Biltmore Dental.
