My children and extended family also come here, and we all genuinely love this practice. I highly recommend Rivertown Dental to anyone seeking quality, compassionate dental care.

Update (April 14, 2026): I earlier wrote a rather harsh review of this dental clinic after having a…read moreparticularly tense check-up that included a root planing and scaling I didn't ask for. I got a refund after informing the practice that I wasn't informed of this procedure beforehand. Apart from this, Doctor Seri's advice to use my custom-made mouth guard turned out to be very helpful--she kept forgetting that I already had one and was suggesting that they make one for me, but she allowed herself to be corrected when I told her I had one already. I also took offense to some things the hygienist said, even if she was comforting at times and gave me very helpful suggestions for home care. She even told me "you don't have a bad mouth" which relieved my anxieties. All in all, it's an okay clinic but a little big.

Due to an infection, we had to postpone removing the tooth, but Dr. Smith and his entire staff have been amazing both times that I've been to his office now.

The admin staff is friendly and I have never had to wait more than 15 minutes before being seen. The dental technicians are friendly and they do a great job without pain, so that is a huge plus. Dr. Denamur is always friendly and smiling every time I see him. They accept the Tricare retiree dental, so that is another good plus in their favor.

I was seeing this dentist, and I was scheduled for a cleaning, in which the day of my appoint they…read morewould not clean my teeth because I owed a bill from xrays that were taken of my daughter from her first visit with them, I then paid the bill and the were scheduling a cleaning that was 6 months out they could not get me in, I then found another dentist that got me in that week, I request to pick up my dental records and took them to the new dentist that was great, but the new dentist was more up to date and did new x-rays and said if the insurance didn't pay they would right them off. my new x-rays showed where I needed 12 filings, I am like I go every 6 months for cleaning, I then told them I had given my old x-rays when I came in they then should me where they also were on the old x-rays from this dentist and were never brought to my attention nor taken care of. I would never recommend this dentist to anyone.

DO NOT TAKE YOUR KIDS HERE!!!…read more I took my two daughters to this clinic and unfortunately had a very disappointing experience. Our appointment was scheduled for 4:00 PM, and we were instructed to arrive 15 minutes early. We arrived at 3:45 PM as requested, yet we were not seen until 5:00 PM. However, I'm certain that if we had arrived even a few minutes after 4:00 PM, our appointment would have been canceled. To make matters worse, my daughter suffers from allergies. The staff told us they would not see her because of her allergies and requested a doctor's note. I provided the doctor's note, but then they told us it was too late and that they were about to close. After making us wait that long, that response was unacceptable. The staff was extremely rude and dismissive throughout the process. As a parent, I expect professionalism, clear communication, and basic courtesy -- especially at a children's dental office. Based on this experience, I will definitely be looking for another dentist.

Regardless of the circumstances surrounding the conversation, the tone and language used were extremely aggressive and unprofessional. Healthcare professionals are held to a high standard of conduct, both in and out of the office. Seeing communication like this from the owner of a medical practice was surprising and concerning. I am sharing screenshots of the messages so readers can evaluate the interaction for themselves. Professionalism and composure matter when patients choose who to trust with their care.
