“

Went in for a basic teeth cleaning. My insurance covers this once every 6 months. Because I didn’t want to do the super deep cleaning that they wanted to do, which would have cost me almost $500 out of pocket they refused to do my basic cleaning and told me I should try to get into LCC school. Which is not covered under my insurance. Spent an hour and a half there for absolutely nothing. The tech and dr were nice, however I feel they should have done what my insurance covered even if I couldn’t afford the super expensive cleaning. Will not be going back.

I came in as a new patient, everyone on the staff that met were very friendly and professional. The Doctor and his assistant were great and the conversation during my procedure was interesting and fun. The Doctor is very skilled, my procedure was done very quickly and I love the results. Elite Dental is now the practice I will continue with. The atmosphere and decor of the office was top notch and they have the latest in Equipment. I highly recommend this practice....To update this I received the best tooth scaling ever...

I presented with a toothache and they got me to see me the same day as a new patient and I’m going back today for a root canal. Everyone was very friendly great service. I’m switching Dentist to them now.
