Lewiston Family Dental

I used to hate going to the dentist but because of this place I am working towards a much healthier smile! I actually looked forward to my 6 month cleanings! I thought I would give this review because I moved across country and really wish this place moved with me! I highly recommend this dentist!

I used to hate going to the dentist. Not because I fear pain, but because each time I went I would receive a lengthy lecture about brushing and flossing -- with the subtext that I wasn't doing it enough/properly -- and I'd walk out feeling like crap. As much as I tried, I'd be criticized. Finally, I have found a dental group that doesn't make me dread every visit. As a matter of fact, I enjoy the visit. They compliment me on the care I take, and the dentist even goes so far as to say that my previous dental work is excellent. (Yes, I had lots of cavities as a small child. As the fillings deteriorated, I had caps to replace them. I've spent thousands ensuring that I keep my teeth -- and even went so far as to have braces as an adult when my teeth began to shift.) What my husband also noticed about this dental group is that they don't push you to have unnecessary procedures. In our previous city, they were always trying to add things that either weren't needed ($2000 to "tighten" my gums). This dentist tells you what you may need in the future, but assures you that it isn't necessary now. Thus, I will be able to trust him completely when he finally says, "We ought to do it now." If you dread your dentist because you're tired of being chastised even when you know you're doing everything you should, this is the place for you. They're honest, do a great job cleaning your teeth, and you walk out feeling very happy about the entire experience.
