I've enjoyed good dental care in the NoVa area primarily b/c I have always had good teeth and pleasant hygienists. The dentists in my practice were nice, but would only step in and take a cursory look and bid me a kind farewell.
Dr Dikeman has a warm demeanor. He took the time to get to know me as a person and understand all the physical issues (TMJ / facial trauma) and emotional stress factors that contribute to jaw pain and the demise of my teeth b/c of clenching. His interest and suggestions have built trust and helped me relax in the dental chair.
No dental office is without expense, but the peace of mind, the quality dental care, concern and warmth of staff, will keep me coming back until (Yikes!) he retires.
