I had an amazing experience with Dr. Minka Hotic for my dental implant. The entire process was incredibly smooth and worry-free from start to finish. She made me feel comfortable and confident throughout every step, and the final result is absolutely beautiful. Everything looks and feels so natural, and I couldn’t be happier with my smile. I finally have the perfect smile I’ve always wanted! I highly recommend Dr. Hotic to anyone considering dental implants or looking for exceptional dental care.

Ms Mia greeted me as I entered this office. Miss. Nyishma was also friendly. I was promptly received for my appointment. Dr. Minka Hotic was one of the most professional dentists/doctors that I have ever encountered. She seemed genuinely concerned about my overall self and most important, actually listened. My hygienist Carolina was so thorough, providing the best cleaning. My teeth felt all new. Although the were out-of-network, I would be happy to receive care at this practice. Also, snacks were provided for after oral care. This seemed to be a family care environment, providing service from the littlest to the eldest patient. Overall 5 of 5 stars.
