Dentist offices are generally very clinical, strict, and not overly welcoming. I cant explain how far this office and staff were from that. The building is very homey and welcoming. It didnt feel like I was walking into a hospital. The staff was immediately very friendly and comforting. The receptionists and assistants made me feel like I was important and taken care of. There was no shortage of kindness and encouragement. And the doctor was very professional without being standoff-ish. He explained things and answered questions without talking down to me or treating me like Im an idiot. I needed a tooth extraction and referral for a root canal. The extraction was done an hour and change after my initial exam, and they were so patient and caring throughout the entire procedure - which took about 15 minutes all told. As much as I hate dental work, and that hasnt changed, I cant recommend them enough for helping keep the anxiety down.Thank you to the team for all the help making this experience less traumatic than Ive experienced in the past.

In brief: DONT GO HERE, or at least GET A SECOND OPINION.Heres why Im saying that (full story):I went in for a routine cleaning with Dr. Quigless. I was told I would need to schedule a more expensive deep clean at a later date and that they couldnt do the cleaning that day -- weird. I only had x-rays taken and an examination done. I was told that I needed numerous fillings totaling $1800. Before the examination by Dr. Quigless the assistant took photos of my teeth and made many suggestions that theres definitely something going on there while showing me pictures of my teeth that had yet to be cleaned -- which, of course, look gross in high-res photos anyway. This felt manipulative and was one of my first concerns since its an obvious way to lead a patient into agreeing that theres something wrong before the doctor even sees them. Doctor came in, didnt say much or confirm anything directly, then left, and the assistant came back saying the doctor confirmed everything. Why didnt he tell me directly? Odd.I went home, felt that the experience was off and I read reviews on other sites from patients who had the same experience I did -- going in, being told they needed lots of expensive cleaning and dental work. Those reviewers got second opinions to be told they had no issues. I did the same and the second dentist said Quiglesss suggestions were very aggressive, which was a quite diplomatic way of putting it.If you choose to go here or are going here currently, be very cautious if they suggest that you need work. If you agree and they do the work, the evidence that you needed it is gone and you will always wonder if they were being honest. This has happened to me at another dentist years ago, so I was more aware of warning signs this time around and feel lucky I listened to myself and canceled the follow-up appointments I had scheduled.

Went in for a double root canal and double crown, Dr Keglar was absolutely professional and great personality, I felt zero pain during the procedure. The whole staff is amazing and professional with impeccable customer service skills, Smile Team has been my dentist for about 14 years and here’s looking forward to the next 14. Thank a million Doctor K and staff

Awesome dentist and staff! For a dental emergency, you definitely should contact Smile Team Dental! I cracked my tooth and due to the Holiday no one would see me until after Christmas! I called their office just by looking at the reviews from a google search. Cate, the receptionist reassured me that I would be seen, and my tooth would get repaired. Pleasantly greeted by staff, and Dr. Keglar. He was professional, knowledgeable and did a FANTASTIC job on my tooth! Discussed other dental issues I had, and I am definitely making him my dentist! :)

I recently had 3 cavities filled and two new crowns with Smile Dental over only 2 visits and I couldn’t be more pleased. Everything felt so smooth and normal that when I woke up the next day, I had forgotten I even had dental work done!! Staff was very nice and friendly. Highly recommend.
