Her 26th birthday was less than a week away and Dr. Gillis and his friendly staff fit her into their busy schedule for both her initial consultation and the extraction within a week! The office was very comfortable and everyone was extremely nice. My fiance felt no pain and was given very thorough instructions for pre-op and post-op care. Dr. Gillis was very kind and straightforward. The bill came out to be exactly what we expected and we were in and out of the office within an hour and a half. Oddly enough, I was scheduled to have my own wisdom teeth extracted next week with a different oral surgeon, but I was so impressed with Dr. Gillis and his staff that I have canceled my appointment and am switching to Dr. Gillis for the surgery! Anyway, highly recommended. I do not usually take the time to review, but I am making an exception in this case because I was so impressed. 5-stars! - JoJo Tann

My son had his wisdom teeth removed in Feb. 2025. The service was excellent - the billing was…read moreawful. I was asked to pay $2100 in advance and told I would be refunded by the insurance. What I did not understand is that the dr took my money instead of waiting for the insurance to PAY HIM - under our insurance, we only owed roughly $400. Lo and behold, the office submitted the paperwork incorrectly and the insurance took until June 2025 to process. My insurance paid the dr (not me), THEN the dr refunded my payment less the $400 - and required me to pick up a check from the office, refusing to mail it to me. Good grief. I will not return simply because of the billing practices. I have never been asked to pay the entire amount of an insurance claim so the doctor does not have to wait for the insurance payment!!! What??!

From the moment I arrived, the women at the front desk and in financial services took such kind, compassionate care of me -- I was a bundle of nerves, and they made me feel completely supported. Honestly, it felt like I was surrounded by angels. Dr. Edmonds explained that one of my lower teeth was touching a nerve, which could potentially cause nerve damage. He was incredibly calm and reassuring throughout the process. When I woke up from surgery, I realized my neck pain was gone! It turns out that the tooth pressing on the nerve had been affecting my neck and upper back. Afterward, I was given Dr. Edmonds' number in case I needed anything over the weekend -- and he even called to check in on me. Hands down, it was the best experience I could have hoped for. Thank you to the entire team for your exceptional care and kindness!

With that said, over the years.. things happen. Including breaking teeth on popcorn. I had a toothache from hell last week and I was brought to tears in pain. My mother knows Dr. Mow from her chiropractor office and called his office to get me an emergency appointment. Allison scheduled my appointment for the same day and was just the absolute sweetest, she was so kind and gentle. I cried the entire visit, heavily from anxiety and pain.. the dental hygienist, I forgot her name I was in so much pain, was just so unbelievably kind to me. She was soothing and tried so hard to distract me from my pain. She was absolutely, hands down.. going above and beyond for me to feel comfortable and to find comfort. She even tried to get my mom to come see me, but covid regulations prevented that. I appreciated the sentiment, I was a mess and needed my mom and she recognized it. Another assistant came into check on me, too, so kind!! Finally, Dr. Mow and I met and he was very gentle and understanding. He could sense my level of fear, anxiety and pain. He walked me through everything, recommended a wonderful surgeon and prescribed antibiotics to assist. Best part was he numbed the tooth that was causing me pain so I could eat/drink, finally, after several days. I will be returning to Dr. Mow's office to receive ongoing care and work through my phobia. Thank you so much for everything!!

End your search and call Moutainside family dental! You will not be disappointed! I have struggled with the thought of setting up a dental appointment for many years, more than I'd like to admit. I finally decided to set up a "Welcome back to good dental health" appointment. Nervous to say the least, my conversation started with Emma over the phone.. she was the MOST KINDest! They were even able to get me in the next day. She explained exactly how my insurance would be able to be applied and really broke it down, with NO judgment passed! Very welcoming! Turning around and running NEVER crossed my mind, in fact I was early and I just waited briefly and that could been a good chance to run. Stacy showed me back and took x-rays and pictures. She also was so VERY kind! And again not judgement at all. Talked me through every move and even had me laughing and smiling along the way. If covid didn't require us to stay 6feet apart, I probably would have hugged them both! Then there is the main man Dr. Mayer, he also was extremely kind and also no judgement passed. He was VERY gentle and really broke down a time line for getting me back on track and assured me it would be a lot easier and a lot less painful compared to the fear that had held me back for so long. So again to say the least if you have been holding off or you are looking for a more trust dentist, they are the way to go, hands down! I am excited for my journey to my improved and more confident smile.
