Dr. Kern was kind, friendly and helpful. Another dentist had told me I needed a tooth pulled, and Dr. Kern said that in fact he believed I had a sinus infection that was causing me tooth pain. He was completely right, and saved me from a painful and needless experience. He has since filled a number of my teeth, and I felt little or no pain. When one of the fillings he did fell apart the next day (it just hadn't had time to set properly and I bit down on it), he immediately made time for me to come back and have it fixed the next day. He also treats my mom, who has to have all sorts of complicated things done (including an implant) and she says that she can always get an appointment if she has an emergency. The office always has the latest dental equiptment, and it is very comfortable and clean. It's a bit expensive sometimes, but he doesn't push useless stuff, and you don't really want to stint yourself when it comes to dental care, believe me!
