I had a tooth pain and was able to get in quickly as a new patient. The facility is so clean and nicely designed. The walls and floors are beautiful. The staff was so amazing. They were patient. The dentist was also very helpful. Such a professional practice. I got all of my questions answered and they helped me. I would recommend them without a doubt.

Dr. Balon and the staff are great! Everyone was polite and helpful. I had a cracked tooth and after the Doc presented me with my options, I elected to have it pulled and do an implant. The tooth was extracted in minutes and was completely painless despite being a molar.I am happy to have found them and would recommend them to everyone!

Precision Dental Center is the absolute best. I called for an emergency appointment and got in the same day. Everyone in the center is very friendly and helpful. Dr. Balon was the best Dentist I have ever had. I highly recommend Precision Dental Center.

We love Precision! The office is clean and so friendly! Their team uses technology to keep in excellent communication with each other during the entire visit, I’ve never seen anything like it. They are the most professional office I’ve ever seen. I took my two kids there and were both done in under 40 mins.

Ive known Dr.Balon my whole life. Other than marrying my wife, making the switch to Precision Dental was one of the best decisions Ive ever made. I had a ton of work that needed to be done and I was actually happy and relieved to go to appointments. Its an extremely clean and friendly environment and I love the family feel, as well. The staff really know their stuff and the care is second to none. If youre looking for a dentist that cares, make an appointment here.

Most people probably will not have a problem with this place as our issue is unique. PDC ran our insurance for which they said was in network and were in contact with the insurance company to make sure that we paid the amount we had to pay and all our family went there. Well then we get a call from them saying our insurance company is in network but paying them the out of network rates. As a courtesy we tried to talk to the insurance company but we did not really get anywhere. Now they are saying I apologize for the inconvenience of this matter. Unfortunately, your policy is, and always has been a No Network policy. Unfortunately it seems that we were all misinformed initially. Our office contacts insurance companies as a courtesy to verify benefits. The insurance companies protect themselves with the disclaimer that the benefits given are not a guarantee of coverage. The estimates that our system generates is only as good as the information we receive from the insurance companies. The estimates we go over in our office prior to any restorative work is just that. An estimate. We cannot guarantee any specific payment from the insurance company due to their disclaimer. Being thousands of dollars off is not an estimate.I will add that even though I had an appointment to see the dentist, they spent too much time taking X-rays that the insurance would not pay for because they exceeded a full mouth series.See the photo for the insurance company comments that appear on a lot of the EOBs.

Just switched over to Precision and this was our first time there and the appointment was for my son. He liked them very much and that’s a big deal for him. I have my first appointment in August not because they can’t get me in til then, I’m not due til then and I’m looking forward to it. I think we made the right decision to switch.

Hadn’t seen a dentist for several years and was rather anxious about going to my appointment, knowing I need to have quite a bit of work done. Facing my embarrassment and anxiety head on, I met with Dr. Balon, his dental asst., Danielle and hygienist, Megan. All three of them were friggin’ amazing! Of course they did the work they needed to and created a treatment plan, but they also showed they care. They listened, provided the space for me (the patient) to process and ask questions, along with some light-hearted conversation (It’s amazing how many of us travel to FL during the summer months). If you’re looking for a dentist - nervous or not - Precision Dental is the place to go. Really, really good people!

Made a last minute appointment with a painful tooth. Everyone was professional, made sure I understood my situation and the choices. At no time was I not comfortable with the staff who were taking care of me. It was a situation where several teeth were involved. Taking extra time. So when theywere understanding of a previous appointment for physical therapy!! What a different experience!! Very pleased.

Dr balon is the best of the best, and himself as well as his staff truly care about every patient!! I have always received the absolute best care when I go there, and there have been in several situations where I needed immediate tooth work done and they got me in the exact same day! Perfect mix of gentle and efficient, I would rate them 10 stars if I could!! True professional!

Review №25

The staff here is amazing and very friendly. The office atmosphere is positive. Dr. Balon takes the time with his patients to explain things never pushing you to do anything that you don’t want. He has been working with my orthodontist to fix my teeth and it’s been a pleasure. The pain has been minimal and prices reasonable. I have been going to him for years and wouldn’t change a thing. My hygienist, Cami, is the best. She’s gentle and has the patients care in her best interest. Please give these wonderful people a try. You won’t regret it!!!

My husband and I have been going there for years and recently switched our kids over there as well! Everyone is always so pleasant and professional. They always remember us from visit to visit.

I am so happy with Precision Dental and their staff. I felt like a valued patient and not just someone to rush through so they could move on. The dentist and dental assistants made an effort to get to know me. They made sure I was comfortable. Every time I call, they almost immediately answer and are friendly and helpful. I can not recommend this place enough.

We have had such a great experience at Precision Dental! We have been going for 5 years and we can’t say enough about how great the people and care are! We just started taking our 2 year old and he did great! They made sure he felt comfortable with every step and did not push him to do anything. Precision dental is where you should take your entire family! Thank you!

Review №36

They are the most wonderful people that work in this office. I have not met one employee there that doesnt always have a smile on their face and a kind word to say. I have had to cancel 2 cleanings almost back to back and they have been more than understanding and patient with me. I cant say enough good about the doctors either. They are just the best and I feel like I hit the jackpot when I moved to Chesterton and found this amazing office and staff. Thank you to each and every professional in that office. I have plenty of dental problems and I wouldnt want to have to ever find another dental office to be a part of. So if youre looking for professionalism look no further.

What a great place. Megan cleaned and charted my dental health. Very thorough and gentle. No anxiety with this lady. Filled me in every step of the way. Then I met Dr Balon. Another first rate person. Went thru all my issues. Offered solutions and the reason behind them. Very refreshing. I recommend these people and their practice as highly as possible.

Excellent! I was explained in depth patiently, my dental procedures, by Dr. Balon. To the extent I understood exactly what was ahead. The office staff could not have been more caring, efficient and willing to go the extra mile. Especially Lori and Ally. I left feeling informed and positive. I highly recommend Balon Denistry: )

Cami is the BEST‼️ I told her about my back issues and she made sure I was as comfortable as possible. She is friendly as well as professional. She treats my husband and I like we are friends and it makes me excited to get my teeth cleaned. The rest of the staff make you feel like they are genuinely happy to see you and it is over all a please t experience. There is not another 🦷 dentist office I would rather go.

Review №67

2 year old, 3 year old and 5 year old all just had their very first visit/cleaning and I am absolutely AMAZED at how well it all went! Megan and Kayla did a fantastic job talking my little ones through their cleanings and explaining the tools and letting kids feel the tools on their little hands to know what to expect in their mouths. They definitely put them all at ease! My 2 year old tried to bolt upon arriving, but after watching big siblings do such a great job and receiving positive affirmations from the hygienists, he hopped into the chair and sat through the entire cleaning! I’m shocked! Dr. Baron was great with my kids and myself. He has little ones as well and was understanding and patient with mine! I had an extremely traumatic experience as a child, so I’ve been anxiously searching for a dentist for my children that will attend to their dental health and leave them feeling with positive emotions towards the dentists office. This office delivered on all aspects. Absolutely amazing!

I’ve been going to Precision Dental for almost a year now and i refuse to go anywhere else. Every time I go in, Cami takes care of me and she is just wonderful. She’s great and making you feel comfortable and making a dentist visit fun. Cami also took care of my son on his first ever dentist visit and he fell in love with her. My daughter is now three and she can’t wait for Cami to clean her teeth too. Thank you so much for everything you do Cami! Precision Dental is the best

I went there because I wanted a place closer to home. I was told I have 8 cavities. I took my films and got 3 other Dental opinion. All three separate Dentist concluded, that I had one very small cavity and NOT 8! Some people give 5 stars because they dont know any better. Get a second opinion!!!!! This places sees your insurance and takes advantage of you!!!!

Im gonna start this review with I am that person that hates the dentist, l avoid them at all cost but I was PLEASANTLY surprised at my appointment this morning! Firstly, their office is very inviting (clean, up to date, and organized) and the front desk staff were friendly. l have never had such a thorough exam done, they even checked the lymph nodes in my neck and took my blood pressure! The dental hygienist I had, Megan, was wonderful. She was friendly, personable, knowledgeable, made sure I was doing okay throughout the entire exam. Also, they said to plan to be there for 90 minutes, my appointment was at 11 and I was walking out of there at 12:35. I will definitely be keeping up with my routine check-ups now that Ive found a dentist I love.

I had my first appointment here this week. If youre looking for a dentist office in the area, or just a new one in general; you should just come here. The office staff was very nice, hygienists were fun to talk to, and Doctor Balon made it easy and interesting to understand what I needed to do to correct my issues. The equipment is the nicest Ive seen and their procedures made my visit quick and painless.

I had used the same dentist for a long time, even after I moved away from the area. So, I was living in Chesterton and driving a great distance to go back to the same dentist Just because I couldnt find anyone locally that compared. That is until I found Precision Dental Center and Dr. John Balon. It is a great facility, friendly staff and I felt completely comfortable from the second I walked into the place. If you just moved into the area, or are not absolutely thrilled with your current dental care you should call them today. Definitely!
