The utmost in patient care and pain free dental work. Dr Wu is a great listener, and works very well with you to set plans that work specifically for your situation. Simply the Best ive found in my 71 yrs of visiting dentists.

Best. Dentist. Practice. Ever. I could not be happier with this practice. The office is technologically advanced well ahead of most other offices I’ve visited. They are all top notch professionals. Very friendly group of people to work with. I was with Canton Valley Dental, Canton Ct for 10 years prior to moving over to Blue Back Dental last year. After having several bad experiences (like chipping my front tooth during molar extraction and saying they couldn’t fix it yet Blue Back literally fixed it in 5 minutes! ) with CVD I moved to BBD. Wish I left sooner as I would have avoided so many costly problems with inferior dental work at CVD. I highly recommend Blue Back Dental. 👍👍👍👍👍

Dr. Tim and his team are incredible. The standard of care at Blue Back Dental far exceeds any other practice I’ve experienced. You can tell that they truly care about their patients and the work they do. I can’t believe I’m leaving a Google Review for a dental practice, but they are that awesome!

Dr. Wu and the team at Blue Back dental are incredibly professional and skilled. I have had a number of excellent visits, from a cleaning to a fixed crown, and I have been deeply impressed by the technology that they employ that makes dentistry far less uncomfortable. I've also been impressed by their thoughtful and respectful way of treating patients. I would highly recommend them as a state of the art practice.

I was with another dental practice for 50 years that was great, but my dentist recently retired and my wife had urged me to contact Blue Back Dental...which I did and have thanked her ever since. I've never experienced a more professional, competent and beyond friendly & reassuring medical facility. Every medical & admin staff I've encountered has been nothing short of awesome...and a special "shout-out" and sincere "thanks" to Dr. Talia who recently took care of me with some major dental surgery...I can't imagine any dental professional better than him. I truly love BBD..they are all the best!! xoxo
