The facilities and equipment in Dr. Aten's office are top notch. I am also impressed with 2 of the 3 hygienist in her office that I have seen (the 3rd is no longer with Dr. Aten's practice). However, both my daughter and I have had relatively minor composite fillings performed by Dr. Aten and we have both had problems with them. We both felt Dr. Aten was quite rough administering the novacaine. Unfortunately, I now need to get a root canal performed on the bicuspid she filled (the first and only filling in that tooth). I cannot recommend Dr. Aten to anyone looking for a family dentist.
