We have been taking our daughter to Expedition Dentistry for over 5 years, and we couldn't be happier with the care she has received. Jesse Gardner has been absolutely amazing from day one. He is patient, kind, knowledgeable, and always makes our daughter feel comfortable and at ease during her visits. The entire staff is friendly and welcoming, and they truly care about their patients. Thanks to Jesse and the team, dental appointments have always been a positive experience for our daughter. We are so thankful for the excellent care and highly recommend Expedition Dentistry to any family looking for a wonderful pediatric dental office!

We took my 3 y.o. daughter here for her first dental visit and I will be honest, I was nervous for her as I have a fear of going to the dentist and I didn't want to project that on her. She did so amazing and they were wonderful with her. Everyone was so kind and they took their time with her visit, explained what they were doing before they did it to her and answered any and all questions that we had. She had such a great first experience that she has since asked if she can go back to the dentist office at least once a week! Highly recommend Expedition Pediatric Dentistry and Orthodontics and Dr. Hayter and their dentistry team!

We have been taking our kids to Expedition for 3 years. They are so gentle and sweet with the kids, explain to the kids what they are doing before they begin, and answer all of our questions that we may have! They have always been kind and appointments have always been on time which is a huge plus with little kids! Highly recommend!!

We initially came Expedition Pediatric Dentistry and Orthodontics when we needed a second opinion for some dental work that our daughter needed done. They understood our concerns and helped us to feel comfortable with the treatment plan. We have continued to bring all of our kids to them. Our youngest recently had his first visit, and it went even better than expected.

It was my daughter’s first trip to the dentist ever and I am so glad we chose Expedition! The office was super kid friendly, the staff was so kind and welcoming, and everything was explained in great detail before being done! Both the hygienist and dentist went above and beyond to make sure my girl felt comfortable! Can’t recommend this place enough!
