The Hygienist was friendly and helped me relax as a stressed out patient who does not like going to the dentist.

I've had dentists that are obviously making stuff up like an untrustworthy auto shop trying to sell you stuff you don't need. I never felt that pressure here. I already have my next appointment set up and will go in with a lot less stress knowing I will be treated with respect for my time and concerns while taking good care of my dental needs.

Dr. Futrell came highly recommended to me from my orthodontist in Wilmington about 7 years ago…read more That orthodontist is one of the best in the state and he spoke very highly of Dr. Futrell and said I should try him to fix the problem I was having because he knew personally how good his work is. I had cavity that was drilled out improperly at my previous dentist and it was causing all sorts of issues for me. That was 7 years ago and I haven't seen anyone else since. I couldn't be happier with how thorough, professional, and friendly Dr. Futrell and his entire staff have been. He doesn't make you feel rushed even though you know he's very busy. I would recommend him to anyone. If you're searching for a dentist this is who you need.

As someone who was traumatized at a young age by my local pediatric dentist, I understand all too…read morewell the significance of having a dentist who goes above and beyond for children when it comes to something important, like teeth. We went to another family dentistry across town (they were also exceptional in treatment of my kids, I still go there for myself) but since they caught a cavity they sent us to White & Johnson, knowing they could handle my oldest kids anxiety. I am beyond grateful to have such an amazing staff to work with my kids. The layout is efficient, the teamwork that I have witnessed during our appointments is flawless , and bedside manner is second to none- they sing songs, talk to the kids throughout cleanings to explain what they're doing and reassure them, and are completely transparent about everything upfront with parents. The only crying my anxiety-prone child did was in the wilmington office, as they tried to get the gas mask on him (he ultimately had to have his cavity taken care of at the hospital under general anesthesia) but even having gone through that, he is not at all scared of coming back. THAT is how I know they're doing everything right. While we do spend a bit more money here than we did elsewhere, but it certainly shows in the quality of care our kids receive.

My four year old needed X-rays and there was a lady holding his mouth shut while he was screaming and crying so they could get the picture. Not okay. They were also back there complaining about eveyone working with them as well which wasn't professional to me either. When the dentist saw my son's teeth I was told he needed a bunch of work including work he would need when he was 10. Mind you he's still only 4. I had a weird feeling so I took him to another dentist and he didn't need any root canals. They were about to put my child through unnecessary and painful work. I don't recommend them to anyone. They were very unprofessional, and I was not comfortable with anything they did there. I am not one to typically leave a review but I would never recommend this place to someone with children. I was told to Go somewhere else and I tried it and should have listened and never gone here.

I'd like to state prior to coming here my son had been to a pediatric dentist before had some work done and never had to go under anesthesia. He had 3 small cavities that needed to be filled so I booked a appointment, during the appointment I had to sit outside the room (my son is 5) and watch in the distance, the dentist claimed she counted continue because he kept sticking his hands in his mouth. She then referred us to a dentist to have him go under anesthesia all the way in Raleigh. I found another pediatric dentist in New Bern and my son like always had no problems getting his cavities filled without anesthesia. From what I got at that office is that the dentist prefers to take your money for cleanings and does not like to do any other dental work because most likely you will just get referred out.

Horrible experience and will not be going back. Went it and it was odd at 9am I was the only person…read morein the entire building I called weeks ago and they said they were fully booked out and only time I could get in and not a soul was there but me and 4 others who worked there. Got seen and did my X-rays got sat in the chair and seen the dentist. I was there to get my bottom dentures started. First off he comes in and ask if I want to pull my bottom teeth, I said yes pull them all I'd like to just finish what I started, then he proceeded to ask if I had top dentures.... At this point I'm confused so I move on. He told me we would need to get my insurance approval perfect great fine with that. Don't really have a choice, next He goes off and says let's just do the surgery pull all the bottom teeth then heal up then submit the request to approve my dentures. I said absolutely not. Get approved then do the extractions around the time the temporary dentures would be in so I had them to wear. So I could heal and eat. After that he agreed to do that but we would need to do a mold of my bottom teeth. So we go ahead and do so, in the process he brings this liquid mold half way down the hall to the room I was in proceeded to make the worst mess all over my face shirt and pants. I ask if there was anything I could use to clean up the mess he told me no that I needed to use what I could see and not dig through anything. No water to rinse my mouth nothing. After all that I go to talk about process and what it looked like because I know all places are different, receptionist and dentist both said they would numb my bottom jaw and do full extraction while awake. I said HELL NO. absolutely not. You are extracting my entire bottom jaw, wisdom teeth that are impacted coming in sideways and you wanna just "numb my jaw" while fully awake while you yank out everything. Nooooo. The dentist got all rude and started to refuse me a referral to an oral surgeon. I left. That was the worst customer service and dentist I've ever been too. Thankfully I have a few people I know who are dentist and they said oral surgery like I would need for my teeth being numb is extremely dangerous and no recommendation at all for the course of action. I will never be going here again.
