I gave them a fair shot, but the experience was so frustrating and underwhelming that I switched practices almost immediately.

I've lived in Franklin much of my young life, and I have been going to this office since my very…read morefirst tooth cleaning, when the practice belonged to Dr. Walsh (who was amazing). Dr. Smyth has been there just as long and has been working on my teeth for a long time as well. So the last time I went to the dentist was three years ago. I brush 2-3 times a day, use mouthwash, and floss when I remember. I started feeling this excruciating pain in the bottom left side of my mouth two months ago, and after suffering for a few weeks, finally bit the bullet and made an appointment. I met with Dr. Abernethy, who I'd never met before. Let me tell you, she is the nicest woman ever. Let's face it, people usually hate dentists, because they're usually hurting you with those little metal hooks when you see them. But Dr. Abernethy was so awesome, try as I might to hate her for scraping my teeth with what looked like an ice pick, I could only feel mildly annoyed. It turned out, my love for all things chocolate (ooh, that chocolate mousse from La Voile) or just for sugar and carbs for that matter, completely rotted out my teeth. Seriously. So I scheduled an appointment for a week later to get some fillings. The reception staff are all very friendly and keep things running smoothly. I arrive for the appointment, and she got started :(. All in all, I received three new fillings and she removed and repaired an old one that had broken (thus the horrible pain that sent me to the dentist to begin with). The procedure was fine, I am terrified of needles, especially the huge Novocaine ones, but the doctor and her hygienist (also a sweetheart) talked me through the whole thing. She started drilling (my favorite part) and I was surprised I couldn't feel anything. My previous experience with dentists and fillings have all been negative, I could feel pain the entire time. Not the case here. It was comfortable, Dr. Abernethy made sure I wasn't in pain at all and described to me exactly what she was doing each step of the way. About an hour later, I emerged with a mouth full of fillings. They healed fine, I had minor discomfort later on when the Novocaine wore off, but nothing severe. I was pretty much up and running immediately after (which again, in my previous experience, getting a filling would have effectively ended my day). I returned again a week later for them to work on the right side of my mouth. This time, I got four new fillings and she removed and repaired an old silver one. Again, I was impressed at how smooth the procedure went. The doctor told me afterwards that in a few of the teeth, the decay was so extensive she was nearly at the nerve when she was drilling. Still I only felt very very minor discomfort (and strangely, not caused by the drill, caused by the filling material which stung a bit). I have to go back one more time to get one or two more this week, however will expect the same high quality service as the past two visits. Dr. Abernethy is almost too nice to be a dentist. I wanted to talk to her during the appointment, but couldn't with my mouth full of tools and whatnot. She is a professional with a sense of humor who is really, really good at fixing teeth. Also, this office accepts most dental insurance. I personally have Blue Cross-Blue Shield, and while I do expect to have to pay a little bit for all the fillings, I don't imagine it to be too extreme.

As a child I had a very negative experience with dental care and have to admit I have never felt comfortable and have a history of avoiding trips to the dentist. I have to say that my experience with Aesthetic Dental of Bellingham completely negated my former experience. I think I have found a service that makes patient comfort a priority. For the first time in my life I look forward to continuing dental care and getting long overdue dental work completed. Unequivocally, I can say that no one in the office knew of the negative experience I had as a child, leading me to believe that the compassion and gentleness exhibited to me is just "second nature" to the staff. It just comes naturally. Thank you for your compassion! I hope you can begin to understand the difference you have made. I am grateful. Mike Kearney

The staff was very kind, they made me feel listened to, and when they found cavities I was glad I could go back the next day to fix it. The day I got my cavities done was a whole different story. When I went in that day, I made two things VERY clear: I was anxious, and I would need more numbing than the average person. Every other place I have gotten cavities filled at has listened and given me extra doses of numbing agent if I needed it, even stopping treatment to add more. I got the gel and one shot, and by the time they started working I couldn't feel my teeth but I was less numb than I thought I should have been. My cavity was far back, so it was going to hurt my jaw regardless. They put something for me to bite in my mouth after they sprayed water in the back of my throat and I flinched. As the procedure went on, my jaw began to hurt a LOT, right around where all the work was being done. I told them it hurt, and they kept going. I tried to power through, and thought I was doing okay, but as the pain increased my anxiety got worse. My whole body was shaking on the table and tears started coming out of my eyes. I even wiped them away! They just kept working, and didn't stop until I raised my hand. I then cried for a few minutes and had to calm down a lot. After that they asked me if I was okay throughout the rest of the process, but how could they have not realized I was in distress? By the end of the procedure I could feel what they were doing to my teeth, they did NOT use enough numbing agent. The cherry on the cake was when at the end, after I had cried and been obviously upset, the dentist told me I should get Invisalign or braces because my jaw is misaligned. NOT THE TIME!! I thought I was okay, but the second I walked out of that waiting room I broke down and sobbed. I didn't stop crying for at least half an hour after, I felt so confused and hurt. I had told them I was anxious and I would need extra numbing, and I felt ignored. I have never cried during a filling before. It was the worst experience I have had in a dentist office, and I will not be returning.

Anyways, to keep it safe, we went with the California (avocado and crab stick), Wayland Maki roll (shrimp tempura, avocado with masago, and sweet soy sauce), and veggie pad Thai. The sushi came about only after about 10 minutes, followed by the paid thai 5 minutes later. Each roll brought about 6 pieces. The California was simple but good. I enjoyed the Wayland maki more, but I think I would have liked the sweet soy sauce on the side. The pad Thai was delicious. The veggies were mainly scallions, peppers, bean sprouts and maybe snap peas. I think some carrots and mushrooms would have paired well. We both left very satisfied. There was a price discrepancy on our bill (the menu said $15 and the bill said $17), so just be aware some items might be a little more expensive. They don't have a designated parking lot, but depending on the day and time you go, there is plenty of parking on the street. Our waitress was attentive and brought us everything we needed. They do have TVs and are typically on sports channels. In addition, you can watch them make sushi right before your eyes with their semi open station.
