Dr. Thomas truly is the GENTLE DENTIST. He is kind, understanding, patient, and thorough. His work is fabulous too! His shots are painless and he is wonderful at explaining exactly what he's going to do and what he's doing as he does it. You can use Nitrous if your nervous and he's not too stingy with pain meds like some dentists. He is a bit expensive but then is IS a RESTORATIVE AESTHETIC DENTIST so you get what you pay for. He has the education and the experience and his office has the latest technology. He is on call 24/7 for his patients. He is the BEST!
