Place has gone extremely downhill since Dr. Kristen Graham left. You guys lost the best dentist at your practice and the only one who actually cares about the clients. We will not be returning due to the staffing changes. It's sad when local businesses go downhill because they can't keep staff. A shame. read more

See all

I used to go here years ago and when I went due to pain and a cracked crown, I got Dr. Shaw. Historically, I saw Dr. Raiffe but I guess he was fired (based on feedback) and tech Summer is gone as well. They made the place warm and did excellent work. However, the place is cold and Krista is the worst. I came in with my child that is special needs because his tech called off. They said it was "fine" to have him there (they wanted the money) although I told them that I could come back. It was pretty empty that day and some staff that wasn't busy played with him during the crown replacement. After this, I called in because I was having more pain after the crown and wanted to schedule for this and eventually my cleaning. Krista told me that my son was not allowed on the premises (although I told her his technician would be with him in the waiting room). She stated that I needed to "leave him at home" which is in violation of ADA laws. I went to another dentist due to this and found out that Dr. Shaw put a crown on a tooth that had an infection on one root - something that she should have caught with due diligence. The other dentist did several x-rays but NDP only did the one with the machine that spins around your head. I had to pay for x-rays a second time because Krista did not send my records. I requested my records several times and Krista claims she mailed them but in email correspondence; she is completely dishonest about several things. She also ghosted me and ignored my requests to resolve the matter. Once I mentioned contacting my attorney, she stated that "you can bring your son." He wasn't welcome before I contacted my attorney. I am serious about my son's rights as a disabled person and he should be treated with dignity. Krista is cold, unprofessional, dishonest, and her name should be Karen. This place is cold - it wasn't like this before. They lack empathy and seem to only care about money. The quality of care has tremendously declined as well. I did not feel cared for and ended up paying twice for one tooth. I want a refund and will not be going back! I had planned on getting an implant and invisalign with them but will go elsewhere. I saved up to treat myself but I do not trust Dr. Shaw's work. I specifically asked her for ozone and she did not want to do it. I remember when Dr. Raiffe did my other crown, he did the ozone as a preventative measure and no pain after the crown. They are expensive and I don't mind paying for good work; but they are unprofessional, lack empathy, and not a quality provider in my opinion. I should not have to spend approximately two months requesting my records or a refund. I have to pay to another provider to get the tooth properly fixed. Not worth the time or headache - find a practice that actually cares about their patients. Taking short cuts to save money at patient's expense is wild work. Shame on Karen and Dr. Shaw. Shame on you both. read more

I recently had a difficult molar extraction with Natural Dental Partners. I also had a similar procedure by Natural Dental Partners.4 years ago and I am very impressed with their Dr.Shaw and all of their staff. Great people and clean professional atmosphere. I would give them 10 stars. That means I wholly approve. read more

Extremely UNPROFESSIONAL and rude staff. Specially Irene, who is the Office manager no less. But also Summer and frankly, everyone I interacted with, except for Megan. Do not recommend this office at all. Do yourself a favor and stay away. There are other holistic, naturally minded options available that actually care about their patients and are reasonable and professional. We live 2 hours away from their office in Phoenix. We do our regular dental care here in town but since it's a small town I couldn't find a dentist that offered the dental appliances (Homeoblock for adults & Healthy Start for Kids). My husband stays home with our baby and loses his workday, I take my 3 kids out of school and off we go on the 6+ hour exhausting day that awaits us (4 hr drive to Phoenix total + appointment time). We get there and they have a projector in their lobby. My 6 year old twin boys and 4 year old daughter are of course immediately attracted to this bright light that somehow displays images. + There's nothing else that stands out in a gray and white lobby for kids. You'd think if they are going to see kids, they'd be prepared for them. In any case, the projector is set on the wall in a box so no chance of it getting damaged. They are using their fingers to block the images and laughing and talking to each other about it. Not an ideal way for them to act but they just sat for 2 hours straight in the car and the staff isn't complaining so I decide to give them a break and let them do that. Also, I practice conscious and gentle parenting as much as I can so I try to be tolerant of them and let them be kids as much as I can. One of the twins gets on the box that encloses the projector (I think to see the image closer & because he's 6), gets told by Irene to get down, he does and doesn't do that again. She then brings them scratch books to play with and after that, of course, since the kids have something to do & are entertained, the rest of our waiting time in the lobby was fine. We finally get called back & nobody mentions anything about the kids being disrespectful or anything along those lines. They are very still and stand very precisely for panoramic X-rays as instructed (mind you they are 6 & 4) and then we head to the room for bitewings X-rays; which was a lengthy process because they either did not have the appropriate pediatric equipment or Summer has no experience with kids. I know my regular dentist has no problem getting their X-rays. We get through it though & it's finally time to see Kristen Graham to get their Healthy Start appliances. She comes in the room and instead of greeting me, perhaps asking how the kids are, how was our drive or any of the standard medical or dentist welcome, she informs me that it has been decided because my kids were being loud, putting their fingers on the projector and because apparently one of the twins put his shoes on the wall while on his seat at the lobby, that they will not be seeing us and they will not provide the service we booked and paid for. No warning, no -hey, we do see kids but we are not a pediatric office, so if the kids keep being loud or misbehaved or whatever they thought they were being, we are going to have to ask you to leave-. Or maybe, -hey, can we suggest you put a video on your phone, we really need the kids to be settled- or anything that you'd expect from an office that is run professionally would do. 0 care for my kids, me or my family. They just couldn't handle kids having normal age appropriate behavior and instead of trying to find a solution and communicating and working with me as mature, professional adults, they just kicked us out. Irene, Summer, Kristen, Ingo Mahn (who I spoke on the phone) and the office staff handled this so poorly and with such an attitude and disdain that I'm truly in awe that they are in business. Such an irony, because they advertise, that the appliance is helpful for kids with ADHD. If they couldn't handle my kids, who do not have ADHD; they sure can't handle the target population they claim to want to help. read more

I had lost my sleep apnea device on vacation and had been to a dentist across the street who required excessive treatment before they would help me with my sleep apnea device. They said I needed five fillings, sealants and multiple gum treatments before they would work with my sleep apnea device. That company took insurance. I sought a second opinion from Natural Dental Partners. I was delighted! I had no cavities that required filling just observation, no sealants recommended, they had in office laser treatment for my gums that day and set me up with Dr. Mahn to get going on my sleep apnea device. Yes I had to pay out of pocket, but saved myself unnecessary treatment and the got the care I needed. This was 3 years ago and I'm still seeing them regularly at their new location. Dr. Mahn & Megan are awesome! read more

Be warned! This is not an ethical business! They are not even holistic. For example, they never once offered ozone over four years, even when requested. We have had two family members use their practice for over four years. I had a dark spot on a tooth that I asked about and they said it was "discoloration". The next appointment, they tell me it's decay and needs to be addressed. If I had known that I would have been addressing it for those six months. They wanted to get money out of this tooth is the only explanation (or perhaps they are ignorant to what decay looks like???). My daughter had painfully deep cavities filled last December which should have never been allowed to get that deep while coming every six months for years. They admitted that they missed an X-ray during one appointment. Sloppy business practice? Then, when she went this summer, they said she needed ten cavities filled. In six months? They said all were through the dentine and necessary to fill. We have since received two other evaluations and only five need to be filled but it's not urgent even for those. We have also received much better care such as getting to the root cause and recommendations of products, habit and diet that were never made by Dr. Mahn's office. Further evidence of shady business practice when we asked for her week old X-rays to get a second opinion. The dentist nervously called her. They refused to send over X-rays without a $250 fee. This was not disclosed PRIOR to taking the X-rays. We were informed of the fee AFTER we requested the records, not prior to buying the X-rays. They sent a form to fill out for the transfer and that had the fee listed on it. Bait and switch could be applicable here. We pay for the X-rays so they are ours. This is not usual and customary business practice anywhere in the dental nor medical field. So, be warned! You can go here for years and still get your deepest cavities ever, be lied to about your X-ray results and also be forced to pay $250 to get a second opinion! Steer clear! There are many holistic dentists in the area that are thorough, professional and kind. There are even non-holistic dentists that are better in the area. read more

I'm GRATEFUL beyond words for all of the Kind, Loving, Generous and EXPERT care that I have received over the years! I've Never found such an Amazing & Professional Group of people in my many years of life! Incredible Dr. Shaw & her top assistant Blanca have absolutely gone far above and far beyond to meet my Complicated & Extensive needs! The Entire staff has such a high degree of Harmony with each other, which I Value Greatly! I have a hard time comprehending such an office like this Exist! AWESOME! I Love All of these people! read more

Found Natural Dental Partners after doing a natural care dental search. There really aren't to many natural care places around. Super happy I found this place! Dr Shaw and everyone that works there are nice and helpful. I got my toxic mercury fillings out. My consult with Megan the airway clinical coordinator was informative and I am excited to get my treatment going and start feeling better! I will give all 5 stars after treatment. Only down fall is how expensive natural care can be. read more

Natural Dental Partners - Front door to office. - General Dentistry Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

I had been wanting to get my amalgams out for a couple of years, but had to wait because I was pregnant and breast feeding. I did my due diligence and looked up dentists who were SMART certified and IAOMT ceritifed. I came upon 2 dentists that I could drive to. When time came for me to finally be able to get them out, I called both offices. The other wasn't seeing new patients for 6 months, and since I had already waited a couple of years I opted to go here. I was told Ingo Mahn (who is on the IAOMT site) was not doing procedures himself anymore, but every dentist in their office followed the SMART protocol and the IAOMT website just didn't reflect this yet. Their website reiterates their use of the SMART protocol as well. Upon booking my appt for the removal, I asked if they followed all SMART protocol steps and was told yes. The day of removal, I was given a solution to rinse with. It seems to be iron, sodium, betonite clay. I was told to rinse for 30s and swallow. I had a usual small dental covering piece of material placed around my neck (paper towel size). I had a dental dam placed around the tooth. I was given cannula oxygen. At the end of the procedure, I was regiven the detox rinse and told to spit it out. That's it. That's all that was done for their "SMART Protocol". I am a busy mother of 3 who works full time, so late that night when I had some moments to reflect on this procedure and really look over the SMART protocol, I wanted to cry at how upset I was over what was missed. I will speak from my perspective as the patient vs what the doctor and assitant may have missed for theirselves. I did not have a protective gown placed over my body. I did not have a head/face/neck barrier under/around the dam. The nasal cannula was pointless as my nose was not completely covered by an impermeable barrier. A saliva ejector was not placed under the dental dam, and I could feel the water leaking in my mouth when sprayed (not sure it was sprayed enough either). I don't know if the oral aerosol vacuum was used during procedure, but I suspect it was not. I drove 4 hours and spent $1k to have this work done. I am horrified at what they consider "smart protocol" and how they lie to people. I am also upset with myself for believing them when they said they followed the smart protocol. This was no where near close to the protocol. If you want your amalgams safely removed, DO NOT GO HERE! Only see a dentist who actually shows up on the IAOMT website. read more

Updated to 5 stars. I'm seeing a different dentist and she is amazing. The hygienist is also very nice. The new location is gorgeous and a lot more convenient. read more

Great staff and great experience. They will also bill your insurance for you, which is awesome!

I love this office! I travel from South Phoenix (40-45 mins one way) because they are so great. They always take their time to explain everything to me and are so friendly. Blanca is a huge help every time I am there, and Dr. Shaw does amazing work. I needed a lot of dental work when I started coming to their office and was really scared about some of it. Everything has been so smooth and they are always available to answer my (numerous) questions and out my mind at ease. read more

Truly amazing office . Dr Mahn is very personable and knowledgeable in treatment of sleep apnea.

typically have my regular cleanings done but absolutely avoid having deep cleanings if I can due to many bad painful experiences in the past. I came across Natural Dental Partners Office where Dr. Natalie Shaw has been repairing past dental work for me done by outside Dr. Offices that I was not happy with. Dr. Shaw is absolutely professional, friendly, comforting and I have to say every procedure done I have had a painless one. Dr. Shaw highly recommended me to Dr. Leah for my deep cleanings. I completely trust Dr. Shaw and I was happy to schedule my appointment with Dr. Leah. My cleaning with Dr. Leah was relaxing I felt that I was in good hands and my teeth looked great afterwards. And best of all it was pain free. She was thorough with me and made sure I was comfortable and gave me breaks in between if needed. I highly recommend Natural Dental Partners and their entire staff are truly amazing. read more

The care was beyond awesome! The office is wonderful with great staff - free of fear - a truly healing environment. Dr. Mahn and Alley my hygienist are exceptional - I would drive 2 hours to get this care if needed. Thanks again - I am blessed and privileged to receive this awesome care! read more

Where do I begin!? Every single staff member was helpful, kind, supportive and professional. I had an emergency appointment scheduled within 2 hours of calling them. Not only did they get me back quickly, but they were able to resolved the issue the same day. It was so small issue either (upper wisdom teeth removed)! I was entirely done with everything in under 2 hrs. Dr. Nguyen & Jody were amazing! As a person who has extreme anxiety when it comes to the dentist (and I won't admit how long it's been since I have even been)--- the entire company made me feel at complete ease every single step of the way. No shame involved. Just pure compassion, care and concern. Thank you! read more

Dr. Natalie Shaw and her team are highly trained, professional and extremely personable individuals. I am very pleased with the customer service from the receptionist, office manager and all the way through everyone who provides patient/client/customer care. The office is modern and exudes calm, confident and organized care for all who choose their services. I am extremely happy with their methods, education and the end product...my now confident smile!! Many thanks to all whom I interacted with at Natural Dental Partners. read more

This would be a five star review except that they have not filed any of my dental claims with my dental insurance from visit on 2/6, 3/20, 4/1, 4/17. When I mentioned this on 4/17, they said they'd do it that day. Well, it's now May 17, a month later, and my PayFlex account wants a processed EoB sent to them to validate the expense. The dentists are the best I've ever had in decades of dental work. The precision and knowledge is unsurpassed. The clarity of explanation is incredible. The cone beam scan showed a hidden infection under a root canal, and Dr. Shaw took care of it with dignity and patience (it was a tough tooth to remove). To be treated like a critical thinking human being who wants to know the why, how, and what is an amazing experience. I'll be calling them on Monday to make sure they have my dental insurance information and file all four visits SOON! Great dental facility and staff. Everyone forgets things from time to time, but the time has come to remember:) read more

I went to NDP, because I wanted a natural/holistic approach to dentistry. It didn't hurt that there was also a $50 new patient promotion, which included the x-rays, panoramic 360 CT (incredible) and consult with Dr. Mahn. He found something that my regular dentist missed. There was also a scheduling snafu (on my part), and I showed up on the wrong day/time, and they kindly squeezed me in (even though they were busy). read more

Excellent staff, attentive, knowledgable and friendly. They are prompt, even with a very busy schedule and office. Natalie Nguyen, DMD is fantastic about explaining everything. read more

I could not have asked for a better dental experience! I have been going to NDP for the past 6 months and will NEVER go to a conventional dentist office again. The entire staff there is so knowledgable and take a systemic view of dentistry. The staff here actually get to know you and remember you. I definitely don't feel like a patient being pushed in & out the door when I visit Dr. Nguyen. read more

I LOVE this place, the incredible staff and Dr's and the results! The natural approach has always been favorable to me and I'm so glad to have found them to take care of my needs- even squeezing me in despite limited hours with two cracked teeth needing repair. I love the use of ozone and the reasoning behind using everything they use. Their levels of professionalism, genuine care and absolutely perfection in the work done. Five stars and a HIGHLY recommend! read more

The office is nice. The equipment was state of the art. I met with Dr. Mahn who is funny and made me very comfortable and he answered all my questions and supported me in my dental need decisions. The assistant was also very nice and friendly. I'm glad I found them read more

Dr Mahn is THE BEST dentist on the planet!! His staff is amazing as well and made me feel at home. I had quite a bit of dental work to be done and was terrified of dentists due to prior bad experiences. Dr Mahn and his staff made it painless. It was like getting dental work done at a day spa. Prices are extremely fair. Two of my friends drive over 30 miles just to go to this wonderful, life changing dentist. read more

I had my initial visit and from the online pre-screening forms that save a LOT of time in the front office, greeting and meeting my dental assistant, was a great experience. Looking forward to a solid relationship going forward. Blanca and Dr. Mahn are very good people. read more

Absolutely the best from my initial call to my visit. Had an emergency and they squeezed me in the next morning. Everyone from the front office to back was so incredibly kind. Holistic health is important and removing my mercury is a top priority. Everything was transparent and everyone was incredibly friendly and happy to be there. What a difference!! Dr. Raiffe has put together a great team! They go above and beyond! A model every company would benefit from!! read more

Allie does an amazing job with cleaning, very thorough with the cleaning and explaining where more attention is needed! Dr. Nguyen did an amazing job with fixing my chipped teeth! As well as pulling out my wisdom teeth, making sure I was comfortable and numb enough to proceed! Dr. Nguyen and her assistant Blanca make an excellent team! Very very efficient! The staff is overall great and very welcoming. 10/10 recommend stopping by to get checked out they will take care of you! read more

Dr. Mahn and his terrific team have renewed my faith that there still are caring, talented dentists in this world. Dr. Mahn's natural, holistic, and biological approach to dental care has been a blessing to me and my entire family. I highly recommend Dr. Mahn's dental group, especially if you don't like going to the dentist! They will change your mind. read more

I can't say enough about how great this place is... My kids and I go here and they always do a great job... Very professional, honest and truly care about there patients. I'm very thankful we found a natural dentist as good as this one. read more

The BEST dental experience of my life! Thorough and knowledgeable and the one time I mentioned a procedure he wasn't 100% on he said he would research it and for me to do the same and we would reconvene....THAT is the best possible response you could ever get! Every single person in the office was sweet and accommodating to my 4 year old daughter who had to come with me since it was a last minute appt...I lucked out and got in quick filling a canceled appt slot! I've scheduled an appt for my husband and we will both be continuing our dental work here. If they saw children I'd have them seen here also but I went ahead and scheduled my kiddos with the office they referral out to. I'm so happy I finally decided to bite the bullet and see a biological dentist. There's no going back! Even though I'm a little nervous about replacing my crown, I'm so excited to get my mouth cleared of metal and have the smile I've been wanting for a while ! 10 stars ! read more

Dr. Mahn is the best! Highly skilled professional. He removed all four of my mercury fillings. He was flawless and it was painless. Even though I live 15 minutes from his office I would drove hours to have him work on my teeth. I literally have a brand new set of teeth. I had those terrible toxic mercury fillings since I was kid. His staff is a pleasure to work with. #highlyrecommended #bestdentist #greatguy #greatstaff read more

I highly recommend. My hygienist is great! Scheduled for restorative soon.

I always look forward to my visits! The staff is so warm and friendly! I am so grateful that I found Natural Dental Partners!

I was drawn to this place because of the good reviews and the natural dentist practices. I liked both Dr Rafi and the dental hygienist and would have liked to continue however, what I do not like is that my appointment to get involved procedures complete that I coordinated my life around was cancelled and reduced down to a 30 mins consult only with no explanation. I ws supposed to have a 10:30 consult and then start the procedures at 11am, back to back. While it was explained to me that they were short staffed, I was never apologized to, or given any explanation for the change in this appointment. I called a week early to prepay to get their 10% discount and that is when I found out. I would have been very upset to show up and not get the work done I had planned for. Like many people I am busy and do not feel that my time was respected, or that customer service is a priority at this practice. I even informed them that a phone call from management with an explanation would have been nice. I got nothing. The only thing I can surmise is that the front office staff is lacking organization and no one really cares. I guess someone much more important than me was coming in and I got bumped! I have never been treated so poorly. I can not continue with a place that does not care about me, my time, customer service and proper communication about appointments. read more

Dr. Mahn is excellent. He is very knowledgeable and did a great job. His staff is very friendly and excellent at what they do. I am very happy I chose this dental office. Being a holistic dentist assures me that my total well being is considered whenever a dental procedure is done. read more

You will get a VIP survice and learn the truth about teeth. Dr. Ingo Mahn has a very personal aproach and he really cares about his clients (not to mention that he doesn't use any damaging chemicals in your mouth). I'm super happy that I found this place by chance. Highly recommend! read more

I learned of Dr. Mahn from an acquaintance. I immediately was interested because I was seeking a natural Dentist. I wanted to avoid mercury and other toxic substances. Dr. Mahn replaced 2 old crowns for me. The process was clean, easy, quick and comfortable. The crowns were ready and replaced in one visit. The numbing was non-toxic and effective. The staff are relaxed and pleasant. I cannot say enough about the wonderful atmosphere they provide as well as the amazing non-toxic, safe, natural approaches and products they use. Other friends of mine are going he e as well and I hear only positive comments. read more

Can not say enough good things about this practice. Doctor Mahn and his staff truly put the patients before the wallet. They gave me fair pricing and excellent service. All of the equipment is state of the art . I felt no pain with any procedures. Can't wait for my next visit! read more

Wow! I don't give 5 star reviews lightly. In my 2 year "odyssey" to find the right dental practice for myself and my family, I have experienced it all. With my family (with auto immune-issues, a kid on the autism spectrum, genetic mutations, allergies to common dental materials, weak dental enamel, and fears galore), we needed a place to accommodate all our challenges. I truthfully had very little hope by the time I walked into Dr. Mahn's office. As the family "guinea pig", I went first, using their intro $49 offer. Fast forward to now (several months later)- Dr. Mahn has now successfully treated me, my 2 young sons, and will soon see my husband. I could not be more thrilled with Dr. Mahn's incredibly gentle, minimally-invasive, modern approach - my hopes were far exceeded at each and every visit. My kids LOVED it there (even the one with Autism and MAJOR fears, who is tricky to please), and both came out saying it went "AWESOME". Irene, Dr. Mahn's front office person, is a dream. Sweet, efficient, helpful, all of the staff there, like Dr. Mahn, is just so... NICE! I can't thank them enough! Beyond grateful! Give this dental practice a try, I promise you won't be disappointed. * I have to add 'ethical'. After a tooth Dr. Mahn repaired didn't need as much work as originally thought, I was told they owed ME money back, as I had pre-paid based on the original exam. How often does that happen? :) read more

Best Dentist I have ever been to! Dr. Mahn is very personable, caring and understanding to his patients - no matter what your dental challenge. His staff are just as pleasant and love Allie the hygienist! read more
