I was referred to Dr. Edwards of Optima Dental over 2 years ago. I had had clicking and popping in my jaw early on in my life and I lived with it for decades until it was so bad, my jaw would lock open several times a day. From the very first visit with Optima Dental, I knew this place was different just from the questions asked and the tests done. Dr. Edwards is one of a few dentists that practices Bioesthetics, a word I was not familiar with until meeting him. He took the time to help me understand his use of Bioesthetics and how it could help me. My jaw no longer clicks or pops or causes me pain. Additionally, ear infections, that I had no idea were related to the problems I had with my teeth and jaw, are gone! The decision I made to go to Optima Dental was, for me, life changing. The staff, especially Ashley and Elizabeth, made my visits relaxed and enjoyable. I never felt rushed through a visit and the team always made me feel welcome read more

I was referred to Dr. Edwards at Optima Dental Group by a friend in April 2019, and I'm so glad that I found them! I feel like the dentist I've been seeing over the last 10 years or so was okay, but he was treating me only for symptoms and not for the root of the cause. Dr. Edwards looks at your mouth/jaw/teeth as a whole and how it relates to, affects, and is affected by the rest of your body. My tooth pain and continuingly receding gumline is now being addressed by Dr. Edwards in his expertise of BioEsthetic dentistry. I wish that I'd starting seeing him years ago; I could avoided painful and expensive procedures from "the other dentist". Dr. Edwards and the crew at Optima Dental Group are fun and welcoming, and everyone could benefit from their expertise! read more

2nd time here and it already feels like home. Dr. Edwards and the entire team really make you feel like family. It's amazing how much of a difference it really makes when you can tell that everyone loves what they do. The whole team is super friendly and I love how they go into detail with all the options and more importantly how personalized everything is. It never feels rushed and it feels like your the only patient in the world getting attention versus feeling like a number. Wish I could give them 10 stars for how awesome they are! read more

Dr. Edwards, Dr. Burchett, and the entire Optima Dental Group are hands down one of the MOST nicest, kindest, loving, smiliest, and educated dental team in all of Franklin county. They don't treat you like a number, but as FAMILY. I highly recommend everyone to go to this establishment for all their dental needs. read more

Gateway Center for Sleep Apnea & TMJ Therapy

A warning to anyone considering this practice…read more I went to Gateway Center for Sleep Apnea & TMJ Therapy for a sleep appliance and ordered the recommended EMA Nylon device after a positive initial visit. Shortly afterward, I asked some basic questions about the appliance's material safety and which laboratory was producing it--reasonable questions for a device worn and bitten on nightly for years. I was sent vague, outdated documents from Germany that didn't even address my questions. When I asked for clarification, I was abruptly told by "Belinda" (Dr Postal's assistant/wife?) that I was no longer a patient and that no further questions would be answered. I later went to the office in person, in good faith, to clear up what I assumed was a misunderstanding--especially since I had already ordered and paid for the appliance. Upon seeing me, Belinda refused to speak with me, locked the door to the hallway, and secretly called the police to trespass me while I was discussing the matter with the front desk. The behavior I witnessed suggests something very sketchy is going on, and I would strongly caution anyone considering care here. Any practice that deals with a concerned patient by hiding in the back of the office and secretly calling the police to intimidate you rather than providing basic product safety or sourcing transparency is likely hiding a lot more, and almost certainly does NOT have your care as their top priority

Excellent care. Office staff great! Dr. Postol is pleasant, professional and knowledgeable! My TMJ…read moreis so much better too!! Thank you Dr. Postol!!!!!
