Please see the LENGTHY review I posted on Google…read more I wish I could copy and paste it, because I detail the exhorbitante billing practices employed by this "care giver". Changing her prescribed dental procedure, and announcing "We're going to do partial, rather than a crown!" indicated she does not have a clear vision of "best practices". At one point, while preparing a tooth for a crown, I experienced a tangible SHOCK emitting from my tooth and down into my leg. OBVIOUSLY striking a nerve in the tooth, she proclaimed that the tooth was absent a nerve - she proclaimed that the tooth had undergone a root canal. After POKING THE NERVE AGAIN, and my visceral reaction, she wisely (???) determined I needed to see an endodontist. I am GRATEFUL to have found a more compassionate and competent dentist than Dr. Nikki Christian. They ARE OUT THERE! #btw her practice encourages patients to post POSITIVE reviews on Google and rewards patients monetarily. Not very ethical in my estimation.

I can't say enough for the professionalism, kindness, and taking the time to explain and understand what is being done.

Dr. Hanson is such a kind, and professional man and it was so comforting to be in such good hands. I was so appreciative of everyone and their going above the typical service you get other places.

To be honest I was really hesitant about trying this dentist based on it's reviews. If it hadn't…read morebeen somewhat of an emergency I probably wouldn't have. My son had a really bad toothache and our regular dentist couldn't get him in until the following week. Even after I explained the situation. I called Eastland Family Dental kind of expecting the same response, only to my surprise they told me to bring him in that evening! Even though he was squeezed in, we didn't have to wait that long. It was less than 20 minutes. The entire staff was so warm and friendly. They also put my sons mind at ease, as he tends to get nervous about dental appointments. The waiting room is nicely arranged with ample seating, with a restroom conveniently located. There's a television to pass the time, which was also helpful to my son in taking his mind off the appointment. There's also a second waiting room located past the main office for when the patient is in their appointment. To add to that is a second counter where you'll give your insurance information and make your payment in a more private manner. There's an oral surgeon in this office which is convenient if you or your child needs any sort of oral surgery. You won't have to go anywhere else. Should you have to have any procedures, they offer sedation dentistry. There's parking in the back and a second exit for patients who had to be sedated to discreetly leave without having to be paraded through the waiting room. I can not tell you how glad I am that I took my son here. If you're a parent I highly recommend this dentist. It was a pain-free experience for my son and as a parent your childrens peace of mind is worth switching dentist for. I liked this place so much that I transferred our entire family here, leaving my original dentist. They even checked on him a few days later. They're THAT good!
