The staff is so friendly and the second time I came they remembered me, even after only meeting once before. The lobby is cozy and comfortable and the office is very up to date. I have never had any billing issues and have been impressed they can give me quotes for procedures right there in the office. I have also felt very comfortable with the precautions they have taken with the current pandemic. I would definitely recommend this place if you're looking for a great dentist!

The 2 cleaning visits were gentle and thorough and I appreciated that I was communicated with during the entirety of the procedure.

Along the way, the dialogue was constant which was important for my anxiety as well. I appreciate that she is also willing to 'refer out' when advisable.

Each one sought to potentially injure me by demanding a series of dangerous and unnecessary dental x-rays. They falsely asserted that they routinely need the series every three years before they can conduct a simple cleaning. They asserted that this is mandated by the American Dental Association (ADA). First, there is no 3-year rule or policy. The dentists fabricated that. Second, the ADA's new 2026 guidance reads the OPPOSITE. The ADA mimics the Arizona Administrative Code R12-1-407 which considers dental x-rays to be dangerous (i.e., there is no safe level of ionizing radiation). Both mandate that dental x-rays only be ordered where medically necessary, and not routinely. I then contacted the Arizona Dental Association and they wrote back concurring that these dentists were operating illegally and dangerously in violation of Arizona law. Dental x-rays may not be acutely dangerous but they are cumulative in their hazards, which means your cancer may not develop for 25 years from their unnecessary x-rays. Too late to sue the dentist. The genetic damage leading to cancer can build on itself year after year. The push for expensive x-rays seems to be motivated by profits instead of patient safety. MetLife and other medical malpractice insurance companies, on their websites, endorse the positions of the ADA and the State of Arizona. No one supports unnecessary medical procedures, especially if they are dangerous. You should know that 100% safe dental imaging exists. This includes dental ultrasound, which in many cases is actually superior to x-rays in detecting early cavities. Insist on ultrasound. Maddy Cottonwood, AZ Age 69 - Veteran

I needed a cleaning...that is it! Apparently, when a patient/client refuses deep cleaning and if the patient asks for gentle cleaning in a sensitive area, the Dentist will give you the boot! They only like patients who allow them to do any and all procedures they suggest. These folks absolutely do not understand how patents want to be treated. For example, if I refuse a treatment that I do not want, that should be ok. The DOC says I am not a "fit!" Beware....this office has all the latest greatest equipment and lots of staff. I even witnessed one staff member being verbally rude to another!? The hygienist that cleaned my teeth was clearly inexperienced. Extremely rough with her power tool annd kept gagging me with the other suction hook. Another so called "dr" spoke to me in a child like manner. My husband was in for a cleaning as well, and he was not satisfied with the staff, and agreed.....these people are NOT a "fit" for us! It was over a 2 hour horrible experience just to get my teeth cleaned! DONE with Herald Dentistry in Cottonwood Az

The insurance paid them over $500 which wound up costing us out of pocket later when the tooth was replaced with a crown because we ran out of benefits.

The salt in the wound was when we questioned it, they told my husband that they have a $59 new patient special that they could have done if he didn't have insurance and they would've written off the X-rays!!
