After I'd been waiting about 10 minutes, another young lady came from the back with 2 patients. She finished with them quickly then checked me in. She was very nice and apologized. I waited about another 10 minute to be called back. Everything in the back went smooth and professional. Claudia did my cleaning and Dr Amanda & Dr. Kim were great. So, one star off was because of the long wait for acknowledgement and checkin when I arrived.

The front staff is great, and the hygienist is phenomenal! In my opinion a good dental hygienist is just as important as finding a good dentist, and the hygienist in their office was very thorough with my cleaning. The dentist was also very friendly and thorough as well. I am very happy with my experience and will see them in six months for my next cleaning!

I stood/sat in the lobby for the next hour half and was told "it'd be a few minutes". I then went over and asked about how long it would be and was told about "10 minutes". Yeah right. I requested my money back as I had already paid for the upcoming procedure even! As I'm waiting for my refund I come to find out they scheduled the TWO other people on my appointment time that were sitting in the lobby!!! WTF!!! My first visit here was immaculate and felt cared for the entire time. My very next visit? The exact opposite. Maybe an ongoing trend? I'm not sure. What I am sure of is I will NEVER return to this facility and I strongly recommend that you do not as well! Stephanie and Rachel are awesome and the only reason for 2 stars.

I had done antibiotics in the time since my last dentist visit. I was still sensitive to cold but not overly so. Dr Nair said I didn't need a root canal at this time, but gave clear instructions on what to watch for, and invited me to call directly back if my symptoms worsened at all. I paid $75 with insurance. They could have just done the root canal after all and charged over $500, but they didn't. Truly a mark of a good doctor is one who does not intervene if not truly required. Love this place! (And hope I never need them LOL)

I came in and the lobby is small but super cute. It smelt so nice inside! The ladies at the front were nice & efficient. I was brought back and the hygienist went straight to work. I got X-rays of my mouth and teeth done. She was skilled at her job because that was the fastest I had ever gotten X-rays done! With someone who has a small mouth I appreciated it. We had some small talk and she got to cleaning my teeth. My God today I needed that! Once she was done Dr. Stafford came in and checked my mouth because I needed a fill-in. She was so kind. She told me there was another area that may be a problem but would keep an eye on it. She suggested other things I may also need to look into but nothing that was pressing at the moment. I didn't realize she knew one of my old dentists and to know she was doing fine made me happy. Back to the front staff she told me about my insurance and when and what they were going to cover and it made it easy for me to budget around the expense. I am glad that I found Dr. Stafford's dental office. I really lucked up again finding a great dentist that has the staff to match!

I drove 20 minutes and left my job and took him out of school to be there and we were there 10 minutes early. At 9:40 I went to the desk and confirmed our appointment was at 9am. They stated we were next and I asked if so how long would it be before we would be next. The receptionist asked someone and they stated they didn't know. My time is valuable and everything did to get to this appointment was a waste. I made a decision at that time this will not be the place for us cause my time and effort wasn't appreciated. Why book appointments if everyone is waiting over an hour to be seen. I guess I got my answer to not move forward and chose a dentist that values their customers. Maybe since I wasn't a paying customer they didn't value me but now you lost a potential customer.

From check-in through communication with the dental assistants, my experience was excellent, and I am truly grateful for the professionalism and kindness shown at the front desk. Unfortunately, my visit took a concerning turn once I was seen by Juanita, the hygienist. At approximately 4:30 p.m., I explained to her that I have sensitivity in my upper left and lower right jaw before the cleaning began. I also mentioned that I initially believed my appointment was for an extraction, but after she clarified it was for a cleaning, I agreed to proceed without hesitation. During the cleaning, I was not offered any preparation for my gums or suctioning to ease the discomfort. When I raised my hand to signal pain, Juanita accused me of "trying to hit her in the face." When I raised my hand a second time, she repeated this accusation, stating I was "acting like" I was going to strike her. These comments were accusatory and inappropriate, as I was only signaling discomfort. I even asked her what alternative signal I could use, but she did not provide a response. Instead, she left the room, ending the cleaning prematurely. This experience was extremely upsetting. I was left in pain, had to spit into a paper towel without suction, and felt unjustly accused of aggression. I hold a Doctorate in Special Education with an emphasis in behavior, and I professionally train teachers and students on how to identify, interpret, and appropriately respond to behavioral cues. Because of this expertise, I am confident in my ability to communicate non-aggressively and to use appropriate signals to express discomfort. To have my calm and intentional actions misinterpreted as aggressive, and to be accused of attempting to strike someone, was not only inaccurate but also deeply unprofessional. As a long-term patient of Wheatland Dental, I have never before encountered this type of treatment. The accusatory remarks made toward me were not only unprofessional but also damaging to the trust I have placed in this practice. I am sharing this concern because I value the excellent care I have historically received at Wheatland Dental, and I believe this matter deserves to be addressed. However, due to the seriousness of this incident and the false accusation made against me, I will also be submitting a written complaint to the Texas State Board of Dental Examiners (TSBDE). Please be advised that I have an audio recording of the encounter, which supports my account of the events. I respectfully request a written response outlining how this matter will be addressed within the practice. Thank you for your time and attention to this serious matter.

From the…read moreprofessionals at the reception desk to the hygienist, X-Ray techs, dentists, and support staff who take care of you, the treatment you'll receive is always friendly and efficient. At the beginning of COVID, I developed an excruciating tooth pain. MINT was closed so I had to seek other options. I went to 3 different professionals who all said my tooth was cracked and had to be pulled. Not willing to accept that, I tried MINT again. Hallelujah! They were open again. AND- I only needed a root canal. I cannot praise Dr. Reid (who gave me hope) and Dr. Sonia Smith (who performed my root canal) enough for saving my tooth and restoring my trust in dentists. Other professionals who have provided exceptional services include Julia, Dawn, Dez, and Dr. Chen. I recommend MINT to everyone I can. Making teeth sexy and free sunglasses are just some of the major perks here.

There haven't been any drastic changes in her health from her last regular visit to Mint and six months later, she requires an extensive amount of dental work. It doesn't make any sense. She had a deep cleaning maybe 12-18 months ago from another shady dentist, Mint did another one, although there hadn't been a diagnosis of any gum disease. Dr. Harrison, this unacceptable from a proclaimed Christian based dentistry. Find a dentist with morals and desires to help, not take advantage of senior citizens.
