Man oh man, talk about bending over backwards! I'm here in Missoula for a month, and shortly…read morebefore arriving I had a front crown fall off. So I called after reading so many positive reviews on yelp, expecting to be turned down, especially after they told me the hygienists are booked out into December. But I explained my situation and they told me to come in the next day(!) so Dr. Felton could check it out and advise me. So I show up the next day (15 minutes late even) and they still took me! I should stop here and say how wonderful every staff member I interacted with was. The front desk person, the dental tech, Dr Felton, all amazing. And the office is big but beautifully appointed and they have all the most current technology and the equipment that it comes with. They can even make crowns on-site and no impressions! They digitally scan my mouth and then fabricate the crown right there! So in 3 days I go in in the morning and walk out in a few hours with a brand new crown. Omg, how I wish I could find a dental practice this good back in Northern California, but I'm still looking. And if you're freaked out about being in the dental chair I can't imaging a better place to go and have your nerves calmed down. This practice is top shelf all the way.

Dr. Olsen might be a good dentist, he cannot be trusted as far as patients'…read more finances are concerned! I saw Dr. Olsen several times. A mayor procedure was planned, involving Dr. Olsen from Smile Missoula, as well as dental surgeon Dr. Holtzen and anesthesiologist Dr. Ochs both from the Cosmetic Arts Center, Missoula. I have epilepsy. All doctors involved were fully briefed and assured me their experience in working with people with epilepsy. Turned out that Dr. Ochs was absolutely not prepared to work with me. He refused anesthesia while I was sitting in the waiting room, all prepped for surgery. All was cancelled even though I had followed each and every step necessary to make the procedure a success. While the surgeon's office refunded the entire amount of my prepaid fees, Dr. Olsen thinks it's justified to keep part of my money for preparatory work. He charged me instead those responsible for the cancellation: Dr. Ochs! Dr. Holtzen! The Cosmetic Arts Center!

I've been going to Dr. Hoaglin since he first took over…read morethe practice from Dr. Sperry (more than 15 years ago), and I can honestly say he is the finest dentist I've ever been to. He's an artist when it comes to the finer points of dental work. In addition, the services he offers are state of the art--no more uncomfortable x-rays (something I always dreaded). The practice's high tech x-ray machine takes only a completely comfortable few seconds! The hygienists, Katie and Bruce, and the assistants, Pauline and Beth, are also excellent. They are well-trained and professional. And the front office staff of smiling Jo Ann and upbeat Malinda is superb. What makes this dental office so particularly outstanding is that each individual who works here is a fine human being! Thanks guys!

I have been a patient of Dr. Hoaglin's for over 5 years. This morning I had a 8:50am appointment…read morefor a cleaning that I made a month and a half ago. I received a phone call a day prior to the appointment as a reminder. I arrived at 8:45 and filled out requested paperwork. Around 8:50, 2 hygienists came to the front; one assisting a patient and the other leading the receptionist back to an exam room. I was then told by the employee that usually handles billing that it would be a little bit. I left the office at 9:15am without being seen. My time is as valuable as anyone's and I don't recommend that anyone looking for dental care in Missoula subject themselves to this way of doing business.

I only had one examination with this man and I noticed multiple red flags. He seems very judgmental…read moreand insensitive. From the moment I met him I did not get that friendly welcoming feeling. Instead I got a rushed, uneasy and uncomfortable feeling from the way he spoke to me. At the end of my visit I was confused and had no idea if my cavity was an easy fix or if it was going to kill me. He made it seem like it was an impossible fix, and at the end of the "examination" (he only looked at my teeth for 30 seconds and then gave me a lecture on wether or not I should think about stoping my bipolar medication, something he never consulted my psychiatrist about, and never asked for their approval). After that He said "ok... so what do you want from me?" As I was walking out I could overhear him speaking to his assistant about me in a rude tone. I was So distraught from it all and cried when I got back into my car. I wouldn't recommend.

Jolynn takes her time and does a thorough job, always taking my comfort into consideration. The only thing more I could wish for is that my teeth always feel as good and smooth as they do when she is finished!! Over the years I have had several crowns made and it is such a time saver to have a crown prepped, milled and seated all in one appointment. I have recommended Dr. Wilcox to several people and will continue to do so. He and his staff are top notch!! Kimmer R

You can tell a lot about an office based on how you are greeted and they types of technology they use. I was greeted by Michele at the front desk. The forms were minimal but comprehensive and I appreciated the low environmental impact of their intake forms. Michele was very friendly and very helpful with breaking down how my insurance is used. Paula was my next contact, she got me hooked up with x-rays and ready for my cleaning. Paula was friendly and engaging. I always get anxious going into the dentist, so having friendly staff goes a long way with me as it eases my anxiety. I had the pleasure of working with Dr. Austin Erler. Very enthusiastic and knowledgeable. I have never had a dentist explain and educate me in the way he did. I see a bright future for this office with dentist like Dr. Austin Erler involved. To book end my experience...Tracey...the hygienist...probably the most joyful person there! She was great! She was soooo good I felt guilty for eating after my appointment...my teeth felt so amazing! I was inspired to, "Do better," with my daily habits of flossing, water picking, and brushing (the entire 2 min lol) There is no hiding your bad habits from Tracey :) All in all, a pleasant experience and I will be back! Thanks for the fun new tool to use with my floss.
