My Hygienist Was Amazing.

"I am really dentist phobic due to childhood experiences. I went in for an exam & have never been more pleased! My hygienist was amazing. Only time I didn’t hurt for days afterwards. The new dentists are both friendly & easy to work with. Having the option of nitrous is great for people like me. Just take it, don’t try to be a hero.

I almost hate to say this but I will be back. Lol. This from the girl who only will go in every two or three years. It was truly as pleasant & easy as it could have been."
