Desert Ridge Dental is simply wonderful. I have gum issues and require more frequent cleanings and…read morecare. So, for the most part, my interactions revolve around dental hygienist visits/cleanings. Most of my dentist visits with the Dentist are super quick and basic. Over the years, I have felt like it can be very challenging to locate a great dental hygienist. Don't get me wrong, the reception staff are wonderful, and the Dentists are top notch, but what keeps me coming back is my hygienist. If your story is the same, boy have I got good news for you. Dillon is simply outstanding. I actually prefer him to most of my family members. He is thorough, gentle, and also has a smile on his face. I literally drive 30 mins just for their services, they are just plain excellent.

I recently moved to Albuquerque and with that comes finding new doctors. I rely heavily on reviews…read moreand I have to say the reviews for Wisteria Dental and Dr. Le are spot on. The office personnel are fast, efficient and friendly. My dental hygienist, Stephanie, was gentle and thorough. She made me feel relaxed and comfortable and we had great conversation in between things going in and out of my mouth. Over the years I've been to many dentists, Dr. Le is by far the best dentist I've ever been to. Besides being personable and gentle she's highly skilled. What you'll find in this beautiful, modern office is top notched dentistry with a side of TLC.

I was able to get in on Monday (same day I called)THANK you Ashley and saw Dr. Le for a cavity. To say she was kind is an understatement! I am extremely fearful and my autoimmune diseases cause extreme sensitivity with extreme flare ups, Dr. Le was VERY understanding and attentive during my procedure, asking continually if I was OK and did I need to take a break ( highly unusual in most cases). I also received a follow up call the next day just to make sure I was OK FROM her!!! If you are looking for a dentist I can't say enough nice things from all of the staff!

We checked in and waited for over 45 minutes without being acknowledged Or spoken to , to let us…read moreknow there is a delay ! My wife finally asked them to see how much longer it would be as my apt , by the way my very 1st apt trying to go there off a referral recommendation was scheduled at 10:40am and here we are at 11:15 never even acknowledged . Then a lady most likely the office manager said yeah sorry there is a delay it's going to be another 20 maybe 30 minutes before we may get called in Although there were several patients that got there after us that were pulled in , so not sure what the problem is but what a waste of time We won't be going back there, to not even be acknowledged until 40 minutes after our appt was probably the worst professional customer service I have ever had and it's really unfortunate as I am in a lot of pain. If you are a new patient and your in pain I would not recommend going there as you will not even be acknowledged even when they are overstaffed in the office there was over 4 ladies sitting upfront and not 1 had the decency to inform us . Usually you would thing around the 15 minute mark you would be acknowledged For sure by the 20 minute mark after a past due appt time then to go into the 45 minute mark and finally asking about how much longer it will be to have another lady with 0 care for patients time and 0 empathy about the fact you schedule us in at 10 :40 and then don't even say anything is incredible rude and totally unacceptable as a place that is suppose to care about a patient and thier health and feelings ! Anyways I'm out and I dont recommend this place to anyone

We were very happy with each phase of our first day with this company. They set us up with their 1st available appointment that was over a month out, but put us on a call earlier list if there is a cancellation. This was great for us, because as retirees we could be available at a days notice. Both of us got calls to come in earlier than our scheduled appointments. Front desk staff were very efficient at processing Maggie & I as 1st time patients. The dental team makes the 1st appointment 2hrs long to do a very thorough exam. They want your input to get your level of involvement in the dental care process. The equipment they have is top of the industry standard. It gives the patient a good view of dental issues, allowing a more knowledgeable choice by patient & Dentist. We never felt pressured to additional care that wasn't truly required at the present time. We were given a break down priority list of items needed & told they would work with us on payment steps based on the priority list. Even given discounts on how payments can be made. I see them on Monday for 1st step in fixing some of my issues. We highly recommend this Dental Care Family

About a quarter of the way through today's checkup, I said to my hygienist, Stephanie, "This is…read morehonestly the best cleaning I've ever had," and I was being totally honest. "This is totally painless." Then, as I settled into my thoughts -- because Stephanie wasn't a talker -- I realized I should be employing this conversational approach to lots of situations in life. I mean, it pretty much guarantees better-than-average everything, right? "I know you're just getting started, but you're quite possibly the greatest house painter I've ever witnessed." "Wait, just a moment, before you move to my shoulders, I need you to know that this is the most epic massage I've ever experienced -- and I've had my share of deep tissue work, let me tell you." "Is it just me or are you an absolute stud with those hedge clippers?" Figured I'd pass along this little life Pro Tip, you're welcome. So yeah, when you set up your first appointment here, go with Stephanie, she's completely painless, start to finish. During the pandemic you can also anticipate arriving early and calling the office from your car. Stephanie will come outside when she's ready to take you in, and you'll be impressed by their Covid protocol, including the HEPA filtered air, double- and triple-masked staff, and sanitizing requests. "Judging by your expert cement mixing technique, I'm going to guess you started doing this at what, maybe age five?"

I've been a patient of Dr. Babilonia's since she took over the practice at Smiles That Work, which…read moreI think was about 2 years ago. Everyone in this office is kind, professional, and always puts you at ease with whatever you're having done. Their office hours are very accommodating, with early morning and evening appointments available if you need them. I've seen them several times over the last couple of years for everything from cleanings, to cavities, and more. Then, yesterday, August 7, 2020, I tripped over a small gate in our backyard, landing face first on our concrete walkway, damaging several front teeth in the process. I called their emergency number, and Dr. Babilonia answered right away. She asked me to text her a picture of my teeth, and upon seeing the picture, decided I needed to be seen by an endodontist, as the injury was more severe than she could care for in her office. Luckily, her husband, Dr. Hochberg, is an endodontist with a practice located near Montgomery and Pennsylvania. Agreeing that immediate treatment was crucial, she and her husband met us (I was in no shape to drive so my boyfriend took me) at his office within 45 minutes. Let me repeat that, just so it's perfectly clear. Dr. Babilonia and her husband came in on a Friday night, in the middle of a pandemic, to help me. Now you may think, well, that's their job, and sure, I wouldn't disagree with you, but they could easily have said, you know what, given the extent of the injury to your teeth and mouth, it's probably better if you go to the ER. That would not have been an unreasonable call to make. But they didn't. They gave up their Friday night to help me instead. Throughout the whole experience they were both calm, calming (I was a little freaked out), consultative, and clearly concerned about my physical, and emotional well-being. I'm going to leave a separate review on the page for Dr. Hochberg's business (Endodontic Associates of Albuquerque) as well, but I want to make sure I say how impressed I have always been with Dr. Babilonia, her staff, and her practice. Last night's emergency just solidified what I already suspected. These are good people, doing a good job, and taking care of their community. If you're looking for a dentist, you can't go wrong with Smiles That Work.
