   We had such an amazing experience with Dr\. Shea and her wonderful assistant\! We brought our son, Hudson, in for laser treatment for his tongue\-tie, and from the moment we walked through the door, the entire office made us feel so welcomed, comfortable, and cared for\.

As new parents, having any procedure done on your baby can be incredibly stressful, but Dr\. Shea made the whole experience so peaceful and reassuring\. One of the most meaningful moments for us was that we even prayed together before Hudson’s procedure\. ❤️🙏 That meant more to our family than we can put into words and immediately gave us such a sense of peace\.

The procedure went amazingly well\. Hudson did great, was comfortable afterward, and we truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience\. Dr\. Shea was so gentle, caring, knowledgeable, and compassionate throughout the entire process\.

We were so impressed with Dr\. Shea, her assistant, and the entire office that my husband and I actually booked appointments for ourselves to come back for X\-rays and cleanings\! That alone says how comfortable and confident they made us feel\.

Thank you, Dr\. Shea and your team, for turning what could have been such a stressful and emotional experience into such a peaceful and positive one for our family\. We are incredibly grateful for the care you gave our sweet Hudson and would highly recommend you to anyone, especially parents going through something similar\! ❤️

   I paid about $1000 to have a crown put on.  The crown kept coming off and I was told that I need another new crown for another $1000.  Why should I have to pay again because the original crown they did failed to stay on?

   I was extremely pleased with this office! The reception room was small and not overly fancy, but clean and welcoming. The front office staff was friendly and helpful. When I got to the back, I had a very pleasant young Lady doing the x-rays. She was Very thorough, explaining each step of the process. The hygienist came in to do the check of my teeth which she completed quickly and efficiently. I could tell she had many years experience. She was also very kind.
I saw Dr. Jones today. He is a new dentist and I liked his manner. He was personable and kind, explaining what the first step of the treatment process would be and making sure that I understood. Then they printed out a treatment plan right there for me! I had accidentally gone to a different Dentist earlier this week, not on my insurance, and they wanted over $12,000 worth of work done. Dr. Jones gave me options and they will do all of the work, place an implant and routine cleaning for less than a third of the other office!
I highly recommend this practice!!!
