I have always received excellent dental care from Dr. Bettinger. He is very knowlegable and professional. Best of all, he is very gentle when you're in the chair.

From the first time I visited Dr. Bettinger, I got such a good feeling from him that I left my family dentist whom I had been with for over 30 years. I would give Dr. Bettinger 10 Stars if I could!!! He has been so wonderful to me and my family. His professionalism and care go beyond most dentists or doctors I have been to in the past. He takes a real concern and thorough approach with every patient. My family has avoided some major dental and health issues thanks to his expertise. I trust him implicitly! I am forever grateful for finding such an awesome dentist, and I have recommended him to many friends over the years, and I have only ever gotten back the most positive feedback and all my friends remain as patients. His staff is also very caring and always helps me to get an appointment, despite my busy work schedule. His work on my family, especially on my husband, has been extensive including crowns and a major gum infection that my husband's periodontist did not catch. His advice and personal attention has been perfect. Unlike most dentist visits, my familly always looks forward to our visit with Dr. Bettinger, and I will continue to give him the highest recommendation!

Dr Bettinger is the dentist used by a majority of my coworkers, and with good reason. Professional and very patient-friendly, John understands "lazy-no-flossing-chickens" like myself. He fully explains everything I wanted to know about the procedure; different options and recommendations, and any insurance and cost issues. Everything went smoothly and as painlessly as I could imagine. I would highly recommend Dr Bettinger and his staff.

Dr. Bettinger has been my dentist for almost 20 years. I can't say enough wonderful things about him and all of my experiences there. He and Joan have been truly incredible, kind, helpful and professional- they've gone out of their way to help me - with my teeth and overall well being. I feel so taken care of when I go there- appointments are always on time, Dr. Bettinger himself does my cleaning (not just a dental technician ) and when I've had work done, I know I am in extremely competent hands using the latest advances and dental technology. I've gotten a few crowns, two bite guards and a few cavities fixed over the years. Dr. B and Joan truly love what they do, and it shows.

I have been a patient of Dr. Bettinger's for 12 years, and have recommended him to all of my coworkers [of which about 15 are now patients]. The personal attention he and his team give you are unmatched. He even does the cleanings! He has a very hands on approach you don't see much anymore. I have had everything from simple cleanings to fillings to crowns, and even a root canal, and have been 110% satisfied with his work. He has a conservative approach and isn't one of those dentists that instantly sees $$ signs and wants to crown a tooth or do a root canal. He's always up on the latest procedures and explains everything he's doing during your appointment. And when you are arrive for your appointment, you're promptly taken in and are being examined within about 5 minutes. I've never waited more than 5-10 minutes for my appointment. Ever. Which is HUGE when you're fitting into your work day. I can't say enough good things about Dr. Bettinger's practice, and the fact that so many of my coworkers are now patients, is a pretty good seal of approval. I wish all of my health care providers were more like Dr. Bettinger.

He placed an implant and it failed immediately. He did not give me antibiotics before he placed the implant and I had an existing infection. Needless to say the area never healed and the implant needed to be taken out in once month. He then pushed me onto another dentist and refused to take my calls. During one of my follow up visits I walked toward the back of his office and he quickly guided me away. He did not want me to see the messy lab area.
