The place is immaculate, the equipment is the latest technology and looks brand new. I will be returning for a couple of appointments in the next few weeks to have work done, and I'm not stressed out at all, which is unusual for me. I know my dental work is in good hands and will not go anywhere else for my dental work in the future. HIGHLY recommended.

Exceptionally friendly and caring people. Most gentle dentist and hygenists I have ever been to.read more

Peninsula Family Dentistry is the best office for anyone struggling at the dentist. As a child, I…read morehad incredibly traumatic experiences with an unethical dentist. Because of the pain and fear that I went through I developed a debilitating dental phobia. I went to a few different dentists in emergency situations as a teenager but then stopped receiving care for 18 years because the fear was so powerful I was unable to conquer it. Finally, as an adult, and in a situation where I was in considerable pain, and had no choice but to seek out a dentist specializing in patients with dental phobias, I looked for a dentist willing to do IV sedation dentistry even for the small cavity that had developed after decades without office cleanings. Even though my experiences at this other office were excruciatingly painful and exhausting- I continued to go there because I had developed bone cancer and maintaining my dental health was no longer something I could avoid without risking my life. Unfortunately, the work that was done there was sub-par and a crown needed to be completely re-done after just three years. I paid for both services, which I should not have had to. The last experience I had at that dentist was so incredibly traumatic and painful that I had a dissociative PTSD attack. I developed an infection and tried to get in contact with them but they were out of the office and I couldn't figure out any emergency contact information. In a panic I called Peninsula Dentistry fearing the infection could spread to my jaw and cause osteonecrosis because of my chemo. I called in tears while having a panic attack trying to explain my situation. Even though it was minutes before closing, I reached Rhyana the office manager and not only did she not make me feel rushed despite my terrible timing in calling, but her genuine kindness immediately put me at ease. They were able to see me incredibly fast and in the initial meeting, Dr. Duffy listened patiently to all of my fears and extensive list of things that made prior experiences with other dentists so traumatic. Dr. Duffy's assistant, Kimmy- was beyond understanding and definitely one of the most committed and incredible people I have dealt with in a medical setting. Both Dr. Duffy and Kimmy asked so many questions to be sure that they knew what to do to make my experience something I did not even believe was possible. I felt like I was the only patient in the office as they spent so much time getting to know me, getting to know my past traumas and truly listening to the things that I believed would make any experience tolerable. Today was the day of my root canal and of course I could not sleep last night. I had some faith that the experience wouldn't be as horrific as past experiences, but still- I was terrified beyond belief. Immediately I was greeted warmly by Rhyana who treated me like she had known me for years and not two days. Everyone listened to every fear and every suggestion I had, and not once was I rushed or made to feel that my fears were invalid. When it came time for the procedure they both tried multiple little things to ensure my absolute physical comfort in the chair before we even began. Dr. Duffy explained everything that he was going to do and l was doing my best to not embarrass myself by crying or becoming hysterical. Before I knew it the nitrous oxide was working in a way it never has before. I did not feel a single injection as Dr. Duffy numbed me. I felt absolutely nothing through the entire 4 hour procedure. Not only was the process completely painless, but Dr. Duffy and Kimmy made me feel so comfortable and safe that I actually fell asleep. The whole process felt like it was over in 5 minutes. When it was over and they turned off the nitrous I began to cry. Not because the experience was a bad one, but because it had been such a good one I was saddened at what I had been putting myself through for years. If you suffer from any dental phobias- there is no better place than Peninsula Dentistry. Dr. Duffy is a miracle worker and I look forward to a life without fear at the dentist, which is a life I dared not even dream of for myself before today.

Alright, this review is going to start at the beginning. I started coming here roughly 5 years ago…read more I hadn't been to the dentist in over 10 years. Everyone's mouth ages differently, and mine? Mine was a mess. I needed to have 2 major gum grafts, a few root canals, a few deep cleanings, many scaling's, fillings, etc. I am still nowhere near done, but I can solidly affirm the quality health care this place can provide. Due to the pandemic, staffing has been an absolute nightmare, everywhere. The Silverdale location is no exception. I have had to travel to Gig Harbor a few times to have a root canal and a crown done, because the Silverdale location had lost its dentist. The dentists and surgeons also are shared between the other locations, so I had a crown lengthening procedure done on my tooth at the location in Lynwood. With that being said, I have interacted A LOT with the staff at Bright Now Dental as a whole. From Silverdale, Gig Harbor and the Lynwood location, each person I interacted with was friendly and attentive. I was also very nervous each time I went in, but they made sure I understood what was happening and that I was in control. The crowns I have gotten are all excellently placed and were done using the latest scanning technology. The dentists, dental assistants and periodontists really know their stuff. I never felt like they didn't know what was going on. They accept insurance (I have Delta Dental) and they also allow you to sign up for Care Credit, which I did. I would recommend this place for sure. They have taken great care of my mouth and helped me get back on the road to recovery.

Earlier this week I had a consult to discuss bonding, which seemed to go well, and I signed a quote from the receptionist, Alicia, for around $1700 for everything. Two days later I received an email, rather than a call, stating that they had made a mistake. I was okay with paying a bit more if necessary, so I wasn't concerned until I saw that they had doubled the cost to $3500. Alicia never took direct accountability for quoting me the wrong amount, instead saying that she was "sorry that an inaccurate price was quoted" as if it wasn't her mistake. There have been a lot of minor issues, like rescheduling me last minute, that I have looked past because I understand that things happen, but the way this situation was handled showed a lack of care that is extremely disappointing.
