I found this dentist because he was close to my job at the time and I got lucky. He was able to handle one tough filling which had been botched by my previous dentist; the cavity was very close to the nerve, so he had to do some high-precision drilling without hitting the nerve, and then put a temporary filling with clove oil to cause the nerve to recede a bit, then a few months later drilled again did the permanent filling. Others might have given up and done a root canal. I've had a few other fillings too. The equipment is fairly high-tech compared to other places I've been. The hygienist will use the ultrasonic instrument at every cleaning if it's necessary or helpful, which I think is very effective. The previous hygienist was very perky and liked to make you feel guilty (you don't floss 3 times a day, shame on you!) but the current one is more laid back, and easy to get along with. I recommended this dentist to a couple coworkers and they were also very satisfied. The less than stellar ratings are because of my wife; she had a crown done and was not satisfied with how it fits (it doesn't make tight enough contact with the gumline). Also had some billing problems once but the front-office lady who did that got fired.
