BEST DENTIST OFFICE EVER!…read more I have always had THE best experiences at this office (lol which I am sure you never hear about a Dentist office simply because of the reasons for going). Rita, my dental hygienist is amazing, it has NEVER been uncomfortable or feel like it's taking forever when she cleans my teeth. Everyone is always so incredibly nice and you can see they really work as a team. I had an emergency this past weekend and was able to reach out, got a quick call back from Dr. Samantha Ward, got an appointment the next day, met with her and some other team members and figured out the problem and took steps to get a casting done asap for a mouth guard. I would highly recommend the office to everyone! They also seem to take all different types of insurance which was good because I didn't have the best when I first went.

Very disappointing situation. I was a patient here for some time when covid hit. I missed, but had…read morecancelled an appointment because I had covid, and did not reschedule because my schedule was very busy at the time, and time just got away from me. Fast forward to September 2026. I have a tooth that broke in half. I tried to make an appointment only to be told since I hadn't been there for 5 years, I was discharged and they would not make any further appointments for me. Yes, I understand I had not rescheduled in this time, but I had been very faithful all the way to that time, including many expensive procedures, some of which I paid out of pocket. I was always satisfied with treatment, but find it very sad that I was in extreme need and was turned away. Mind you, they are still accepting new patients, and it's not like I stood them up with a no show. I was told, point blank in an email "go find a new dentist". Rude and surprising to say the least!

I went during pandemic due to not many dentist open and had an issue with some of my bottom teeth,…read moreI had decided to get them all extracted and wanted to discuss implants instead of dentures, Got we will come back to that. The main dentist reprimanded a tech right outside my door and it was very unprofessional. Day of extraction appt, after 3 hours late for my appt, i asked if was going to be soon if not I had no issue rescheduling. Told will be in a few minutes. Another hour goes by and i go back to desk this time to just reschedule when said oh no she is coming to get you right now. Once in room waiting on surgeon and he and his assistant come in laughing but in a more sexual way, thought that was odd. I said i was ok to reschedule seeing as he seemed to be running so far behind. at this comment he was not happy, i said if running that late maybe ask desk to let people know and they could come back later. He got more upset at that and said " things happen" Honestly i think the thing was an adventure with the tech. After he was done and i was waking up, he rudely said i even left you impacted wisdom tooth in. "how is that". I was too out of it to even catch on before he left the room. Next on to 1st set of teeth which not going to say much about as too swollen to have any idea on fit. went back a few more times to adjust never fit good for more than couple hours before hurt again. Everytime they made my next set of dentures they used WAY too much of the goo and it made me gag. once time i started to choke and had to spit out the set and they got mad they had to start again. I asked many times not to put so much in, but never listened. Most times I was there it was like the dentists were more interested in extra curricle activities than my needs. I never did get a pair of good bottom dentures to wear and now I am looking to have top out and definitely going elsewhere, and will see about getting a new bottom denture done also

Just got finished my a cleaning at Mint Dental. The space is aesthetically pleasing and inviting…read more The equipment is brand spanking new. They have flat screens attached to the dental chair and I was told that they will soon have Netflix to go with them. Getting in a show while you are on your lunch break getting a cleaning! Sold!! Dr. K is very nice and listened to any concerns that I may had. I explained that I had a root canal with a semi permanent filling because I couldn't yet afford my crown. She completely understood and took it upon herself to get a prior authorization started so I would know ahead of time what my cost out of pocket would be. She also said that I could pay 1/2 at the beginning of the procedure and pay the other 1/2 at the end. That alone makes the burden less heavy. I also had what I thought was a crack in my tooth. She showed me (with a picture, not an xray) she took while she was doing my oral exam what I was feeling and was honest about what the future will hold for the tooth. Luckily, there is no real need to worry at the moment but they will be keeping an eye on it. Overall, my appointment from start to finish was awesome. You can tell that they are caring and are dedicated to their patients. I look forward to using them for all my dental needs in the future.

I rarely leave reviews this negative, but Mint Dental of Franklin absolutely earned it. The hours…read moreare completely inconvenient, and worse than that, they almost never answer the phone--good luck getting a live human when you need to reschedule, ask a question, or even confirm an appointment. On top of the poor communication, the prices are outrageous, especially given the mediocre service and lack of basic patient courtesy. I gave them a fair shot, but the experience was so frustrating and underwhelming that I switched practices almost immediately. Just not a great dental office by any stretch--unresponsive, overpriced, and poorly run. Avoid if you value your time, money, or sanity.

When Dr. Malesra took over Branch Village Dental, my wife and I decided to stay at the practice and…read moregive him a try. In late 2023 I began experiencing discomfort on the palate side of my gums and decided to wait a short time until my cleaning visit in January 2024 to have it looked at. The hygienist I had was pleasant to work with but, recently, has shown that she did not use good judgement. After looking at my issue, she had no idea what the problem was and left me with the impression that there was nothing to worry about and that it should clear up on its own in time. She not only did not have any idea of what was going on, she also did not feel it important enough to consult with or ask Dr. Malesra to spend a minute to look at it. My next visit was in July when the doctor would examine me. The discomfort had not gone away. Upon examination, he said that I probably at some point had a food particle, such as a popcorn husk, stuck under my gum causing irritation, but he did not find anything. He then advised that I try rinsing my mouth with 3% hydrogen peroxide three times per day and get back to him in a few weeks. After that he gave me a prescription for Chlorhexidine. Both did nothing. A few weeks later Dr. Malesra took an X-ray and said I might have gingivitis, recommending I see a periodontist. I went to the periodontist that he recommended. That ended up being a big mistake and a total waste of $115. I will spare you those details except to say that he mentioned that the x-rays Dr. Malesra's office sent to him were dark, blurry and unusable and had to take one of his own. Being totally unsatisfied at the point, I chose to see a different periodontist, one that my wife had seen. The difference between the two were like night and day. He, too, thought the x-rays were bad and had to take one of his own. He performed a complete checkup, took photographs of what he suspected and, after some time, did a biopsy as there were white bumps that proved to be Leukoplakia, a problem that could possibly end up being oral cancer. More time will have to pass to determine if this is the case. The point here, though, is that had the hygienist done her job and had Dr. Malesra look at me in January instead of having to wait 6 months, what may end up being cancer could have been caught six months sooner and most likely better treated! On a Tuesday, I tried calling Dr. Malesra and spoke with a receptionist to set up a time to speak with him to discuss my feelings. I was told he was at lunch and she would have him return my call. It took three days before I finally received a call from the office manager wanting to know what the issue is. I told her I wanted to speak directly with the doctor and she said she was told to speak with me instead. I could not speak with the doctor. I feel any small business owner who refuses to speak with an upset customer directly is a coward and a very poor businessman and should not run a business. To sum it up, in my opinion, it appears both the hygienist and Dr. Malesra are only adequate in their basic job functions, and when there is an issue outside of normal cleaning or pulling a tooth, they are not of much value. I recommend looking elsewhere if you are looking for a great dental practice. Both my wife and I have left the practice with no regrets!

Branch Village Dental has a very friendly and professional team. Dr Malesra is a wonderful dentist…read more He has a gentle touch and kind demeanor. I have total confidence in his care. I look forward to seeing this team on each visit. I highly recommend them.

When the only dentist that I've ever been to retired, he referred us to Dr. Phelan. I've always…read moreenjoyed going to the dentist (call me crazy) but was hesitant to go someplace new, but all my fears were cast aside when I met Dr. Phelan and his staff. The staff is SUPER friendly and make you feel very welcome. They even had the idea to schedule my families cleaning appointments at the same time so no one has to wait for the anyone to be finished and we can get on with our day. GENIUS!! (They have multiple dental hygienists that handle the cleanings) They also make it easy to connect with them and can send you reminders by phone, text, or email - your preference. They are kid friendly and have exercised kindness and care when in appointments with my kids to ensure they have wonderful interactions here and feel safe and comfortable in the dentist chair. A few other reviews mention that the pricing scale may be a bit more than other places - to be honest, I've never been concerned with the cost, but I would never sacrifice my comfort or peace of mind to save a few bucks. The care and support you receive here is worth every penny. Pro tip: They have a referral program, so each time you refer a new patient there's something in it for you (to date, I've referred almost a dozen friends and coworkers!) Follow them on Facebook for advanced notice about any specials they may be advertising on the Zoom! tooth whitening system and other items.

I was scared of dentists for most of my life. When I finally found Dr. Phelan @ Exquisite Smiles, I…read morecouldn't have been happier. ALL the staff go out of their way to make sure you're comfortable. Procedures are explained very thoroughly, which alleviates a great deal of anxiety. Before any work is done, they go over your record, asking if there have been any changes to your health, current medications, etc. They're always asking "Are you okay?" or "Do you need anything?" or just stop when you signal to ask a question or take a breather. They never "dismiss" you and listen very carefully to anything you need to convey. (That's a HUGE plus in my book!) Compassion & quality time are first and foremost. Their finance department makes all the charges understandable and will set up the best possible payment plan for you, if that is what you need. If I could give TEN stars I would!

I am absolutely blown away by the phenomenal level of care and client education that I received at…read moremy appointment. I have never had such a thorough oral examination and I was so pleased with their high level of attention to detail. Samantha, the dental assistant, was friendly, highly skilled, and efficient. She has excellent bedside manner and explained every procedure in detail before and during so I knew what was going on. She took beautiful dental radiographs in a very short period of time, I was impressed with her technique! Dr. Picard was warm, friendly, and knowledgeable. He started my exam by talking to me about myself and non-dental related topics which really made me feel at ease and definitely got rid of those pre-visit butterflies in my stomach! His exam was detailed and he took the time to ask me several times if I had any questions or needed further explanations on anything. Both Samantha and Dr. Picard went above and beyond! The texting feature makes check-in seamless! I really can't recommend them enough.

Dr. Cathcart and Brenda are a great team, working efficiently together and explaining each step of the process. The whole procedure was painless, my most important metric. I would strongly recommend Picard Dental Associates to anyone needing dental care.
