I've never laughed so hard at a dentists office without laughing gas before. Dr. Kubota makes everyone feel like a part of the family that is so obviously his colleges and co-workers, as well as making sure you are relaxed and not terrified. Also, even if he isn't the one working on you, he tries to stop in and make you laugh (something he always manages to do). I'm a student, so money is always tight, but Dr. Kubota is more than willing to work out whatever you need because to him it's more about healthy teeth than getting paid all at once. I will never go to another dentist as long as he continues to practice.
