Just had a second crown done by Dr Liggett. He is a very professional dentist. It was painless, and after the procedure, while I rested/and waited for him to manufacture my crown, I was treated to Dr's slide show of his photography. He could easily be a professional photographer. The show was of wildlife, flowers, and Nature. It was a treat to watch. And once my crown was manufactured he simply installed it for a perfect fit. Much better than old days when patients had to wait for weeks for replacement to be made. Great dentist, great and caring staff, and for me...no pain! Obviously, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Liggett, and Morning Star Dentistry! Bill Pope read more

I can't express enough how much I enjoy my visits to Morning Star Dentistry with Dr. Justin Liggett! From the moment I pull into the parking lot, I'm greeted by the most beautiful office and the most breathtaking views that instantly lift my spirits. The staff at the front Katlyn and Laura are wonderful, making you feel like family! The hygienist, Lisa, who has been part of this wonderful practice for years, always takes her time to ensure that every cleaning is not only thorough but also comfortable. She cares about her patients and it shows. After my cleanings, my teeth feel absolutely amazing, and I always leave feeling happy and cared for. Dr. Liggett is simply the best dentist I've ever had. He is so sweet, articulate and detail-oriented and I appreciate his honesty--he clearly explains what treatments are needed right now and what we can keep an eye on for the future. It gives me peace of mind knowing that I can trust his recommendations 100% of the time! . If you're looking for a truly wonderful dental experience, I wholeheartedly recommend Morning Star Dentistry. Dr. Liggett and his incredible team make my trips to the dentist something to look forward to read more

This place is awesome they are very very kid friendly all the ladies that work there are very welcoming and warm. They made my 3 yr old daughter's first time visiting the dentist an amazing experience for her! The dentist saw her last minute and I greatly appreciated that, he was friendly and quick which was great being my daughter is 3 :) I highly recommend this place all the staff is top notch read more

I am a big baby when it comes to the dentist. So it was with some trepidation I tried Morning Star and Dr. Liggett. I needed a crown and I didn't want to make several visits as I live an hours drive away. I did my online research, saw he did same-day crowns...and sent my husband first (lol). His exam went great and he told me I really need to go meet Justin - he's a Veteran like me, and he will help me out. I set my dental PTSD aside and it was the best decision ever! I was overdue for everything but within just two weeks I had my initial exam and X-rays, teeth cleaning, and a new crown. All painless and beautifully done. They have a nice clean office, soothing photo montage to keep you calm while you're staring at the ceiling, and prices are reasonable for someone without insurance. read more

This practice was easily a 5/5 when Steve owned it. It had an atmosphere of warmth and was welcoming of families. His attention to detail and sense of humor made the experiences enjoyable (I genuinely liked going to the dentist). This is, in large part, due to Steve Baker and his values. read more

My 1st visit out in the world & I will admit to being a bit anxious (always am when it's the dentist) & was thinking how is this going to work considering all that's happened around us but it was as good as it gets going to have your teeth worked on! They are always welcoming and Lisa is so kind when cleaning my teeth & Dr Baker has eased my fears of going both by his professionalism & the manner in which he plans your care with you! Best Dentist ever!! read more

Our family have been patients of Dr. Baker's for 25+ years and even though we now live over 200 miles away we still travel to have our dental care done with Dr Baker and his team. Every one is professional, competent and they are all so friendly. Dr Baker has a great sense of humor too which makes all visits fun as well as pain free. Dr. Has had the same staff all these years as well, which shows they are a fine working team. They have added a few employees in recent years to keep everything running smoothly and accommodate his patients needs. Dr. Baker is honest and does not ever recommend work or expensive procedures that are not necessary. He gives you all the options available for your needs with pros and cons and then lets you decide. I am in my 60's and have had bad and good dentists. Once you find an excellent dentist, which we have with Dr. Baker, you never leave! read more

I can't say enough good things about Dr. Baker and his staff. They are the best in my opinion. I have been going to Dr. Baker for YEARS and always receive the best service. I feel his prices are competitive and fair. The staff is always cheerful, helpful, and willing to answer all questions without being condescending or negative. I will happily continue to use Dr. Baker and his staff since I never need to worry that something is being done unnecessarily. read more

He and his staff did a great job. He fixed my upper teeth so well like an art work. He knows how to listen to his patients. His staff is caring and kindness. read more

Second time here for a cleaning. First time X-rays and a follow up X-ray yesterday on one tooth/crown he's watching - nothing needed. Here's the deal, he's been here a long time, his educational costs are paid off and he's not trying to do extra work or over charge to pay off a boat. Long time employees with legitimate benefits - not part timers hired cheap. So for a $100 I got a touch up x-ray and a good cleaning by someone who was full time with health benefits - a deal all the way around. I'm 70 and have been around the block with dentists - this is good for all. read more

Im from out of town and they fixed my front tooth crown that broke right away. They were fantastic!! I would highly recommend them and if I lived in sonora I would definitely be a patient. read more

I visited their office today and was mightily impressed. With the exception of desperately needing a bull nose on the granite countertops they have the counter staff was welcoming and aware of the protocol for confidentiality. Their cerric milling station is outlined by teal hues of LED lighting and if you are needing a crown replaced this DDS does it all in-house. He may be the only one in possession of this modern milling station on premises read more

Very friendly and professional staff. Been going there for 4 years . Always make me feel welcome

Dr. Steven Baker is a fantastic dentist. I had a horrible abscess underneath my bridge and was in a lot of pain. I "cold called" Dr. Baker at 9:30pm, on a Friday night. He met me at his office Saturday at 7:00am. He took x-rays and prescribed antibiotics and some pain medication. He is by far the most caring dentist I have ever seen. Subsequently I have seen Dr. Baker several times to improve my dental health. Also his office staff is wonderful. I actually enjoy going to the dentist now; which I never would have thought possible. His office and equipment is "state-of-the-art". I love the care I receive from Dr. Baker. read more

We love Dr. Baker!!!!! He makes you feel at ease and makes sure you have no pain. He is great with kids and his staff is warm, friendly and kind! Can't imagine going anywhere else. Thank you Dr. Baker!!!!! read more

The greatest dentist and a human being in Sonora. Before mother's day weekend. My wife started to feel pain in her front bottom tooth and by Sunday her pain was unbearable (after atb and pain meds). To make the story short , Dr Baker opened his clinic and took care of my wife. This man is an angel, a blessing in this community. He will go an extra smile to take care of you even on his very hectic schedule. This is an over the top act of human kindness. God bless you. read more

This dentist office is the best I ever been to. I am from the east coast and had severe trauma to my face, leading to an underbite and eventually root canals to all my front teeth. Brandi is the absolute best and helped me make a plan for my future care, not only that but arranged an appointment with an orthodontist as well. I am so grateful for the wonderful people that work at this office and all the help they provided to me. read more

I had a excellent experience today with Dr. Baker and his staff. My father had been the only dentist I had ever seen, but he retired and I had to find someone new. Everyone was so pleasant, friendly and great at explaining what they were doing and what was going on in my mouth (which wasn't much, so go me!). Thanks guys! read more
