Dr. Garrett is the most kind and gentle dentist I know. When I was younger I hated going to the dentist for the fear of the unknown. I was petrified to hear the sound of the drill let alone hearing the tinkering of the dental tools. He is very patient and understanding especially with scared people like me. He took me through all the steps of having a cleaning, then a couple of fillings, and I even had a root canal and a crown done. All actually went very well. Even when I had to get shots, I didn't feel a thing. I feel completely relaxed and have referred all of my friends and family to him and his office. The only downside I can think of is that his office is somewhat difficult to find from the street. As you go down on Warner, he's in the last glass buildings, but the sign is somewhat small. If you need a really good dentist who will do a good job, you should see Dr. Garrett in Tempe.
