Dr. Pickel's hygienists and staff are very friendly and helpful. The first time you go in, they take photos and you go in for a follow-up to discuss all aspects of your dental health. This is included in the price of your first visit. I haven't been to many dentists, so I don't know how the prices compare. It seemed expensive, but worth it because the work is high quality. I have had cleanings, fillings, and sealants by Dr. Pickel (pronounced pick-ELL, not pickle). Dr. Pickle is very knowledgeable and tries the simple, inexpensive ways of solving a problem first. I was convinced I had a cavity or gum problem because one tooth constantly hurt. After talking to him, I discovered it was from bruxing (grinding my teeth). He used bite paper to see where my teeth were hitting, and shaved off a tiny bit of the culprit tooth. He said if that didn't solve the problem, I could come back and be fitted for a night guard. I didn't have to, because it hasn't hurt since!
