Gene Brabston has been my dentist for over 40 years. I have found him to be honest, thorough, and compassionate. I’ve had fillings, caps, bridges, and a dental implant done by Dr. Gene. All good work. No complaints from me.

Nobody likes to go to the dentist. However, Dr. Brabston and his staff make a visit to their practice as pleasant as one could be. Dr. Brabston is professional, knowledgeable, caring, and competent, and my husband and I have always received excellent services, regardless of what we needed related to dental care - from routine cleanings to root canals.The hygienist, Toni, who most recently cleaned my teeth, did the best job ever! Thanks so much to everyone at the office in Fairhope.

I have been going to Dr. Brabston for eight years. He is a consummate professional. He is caring and competent and remembers all kinds of details about me from visit to visit. Dr. Brabston and his hygienists have gone out of their way to help me with my dental needs and to prevent possible future problems. The office staff is great, as well. It is so nice to find a wonderful dentist along with wonderful staff.

I’ve been going to Living Oaks for about 6 years now. I love Dr. Brabston and his staff! The hygienists are gentle and thorough and Lauren the receptionist is just about the sweetest person you’ll ever meet. I have anxiety and have had issues with numbing medications working properly in the past but Dr. Brabston has always taken great care of me. They offer sedation to make sure everything is comfortable and pain-free and I’ve never had a bad experience with them. I moved last year but I still drive all the way to Fairhope for my dental appointments because I don’t want to switch dentists. Highly recommend Living Oaks!

Caring, sincere professionals who take the time to listen to their clients concerns. Very conscientious about my feelings when I am sitting in the dentist chair! Not my favorite place to be; however, Living Oaks Dental is where I choose to be every 6 months.

I’ve been a patient in several dentist’s offices all around the U.S., and I can tell you that Living Oaks is hands down the best there is. I love the friendly staff, the hygienists, and of course, the man himself, Dr. Brabston. They’re all top notch and the best at what they do.

Genes dental work is meticulous, beautiful, and painless. Everyone in the office is accommodating and very competent. Other than retirement, there is little or no turnover among these professionals. That says it all. If you are new to the area, or shopping for a new dentist, Living Oaks Dental will be your last stop!!

I think Ive been going to Living Oaks for more than 30 years. Gene Brabston was only 12 or 13 the first time - as I recall. I thought a lot of both Gene and his staff then and my respect and admiration has only grown since. Fine people all around.

I had a fabulous experience at Living Oaks Dental and would highly recommend it! I’ve always been very anxious about going to the dentist and avoided it for many years because of that. I finally had to go to the dentist for a toothache that got bad. I was very pleasantly surprised by how easy and painless my appointment was!

Review №36

I had to go in today for 7 plus fillings. I scheduled this appointment over a month ago and have been worrying myself sick over it. I’ve always had fear of the dentist ever since my ever first appointment and always had nothing but horrible experiences and that caused what I thought fear forever. Causing my teeth to just rot out my head. I AM beyond thankful for this place. When my fear and terror was explained to them they explained a method called “oral sedation” to me in other words conscious sedation. I couldn’t eat/drink anything the night before after midnight and they scheduled me for a early appointment the next day, came in a hour before that and they gave me the oral sedation and told me to relax on the couch until I started to feel real sleepy before I knew it a hour had passed and I forgot to let them know I was getting sleepy and it was time to go back. Somebody walked me back... Not much more I remember after that point except seeing a couple things and feeling cotton in my cheek other than that I can’t remember the sound of the drill, and tastes or smells (if there were any at least) I just remember feeling totally relaxed in the chair that I pretty much slept through all of it if there was a way to explain being asleep and awake and the same time that’s how I felt today. I was conscious enough to open my mouth wider but didn’t care what they were doing or always jerking my head to look at what they were about to stick on my mouth. Next thing know they are lifting the chair saying I’m done and my lip felt as fat as ever got home took a great nap and woke up starving !!!! I was so pleased with this appointment I could cry tears of joy who knew you could be so relaxed in the dentist chair ESPECIALLY ME. But the best part of all this is it was painless & he was super quick doing them and did an amazing job this dentist has a lot of compassion and really cares about his patients! He means business got me in and out super quick and still did a rockin job. So I can’t thank you enough Live Oaks Dental for being my dream dentist office :) I love you guys!

Living Oaks Dental..I HIGHLY RECOMMEND their services..Dr. Brabston and His AMAZING team of dental hygienists .. do a really good job of monitoring and taking care of my teeth. Dr. Brabston was one of the first dentists in the Fairhope area, and as a result of his early presence in this area, he offered all forms of dental treatment for his clients. Because of this long experience in so many areas, he can diagnose..and probably treat..most dental issues. His team does an excellent job of cleaning and reviewing a patients teeth in preparation for his review.

Dr. Brabston has been my family doctor ever since I was a little girl, so its always been an incredibly comfortable experience for me. Ive never once thought about seeking dental services elsewhere. From fillings, 6 month check ups, and crown work, he and his team have been nothing short of professional and knowledgeable with the work Ive had done. My hygienist is incredibly sweet and patiently works around my tooth sensitivities.

I have been doing business with Living Oaks Dental for a number of years. The staff and Doctor are always kind & very friendly. They are professional, & will go out of their way to make you feel extremely comfortable. The office & treatment rooms are always clean & neat. And the atmosphere is so relaxed & soothing, try not to doze off to sleep. If youve yet to experience (Dental Care) like this, then give them A try. And let them make A believer out of you.

This office has taken the best of care of my family. They have gone above and beyond to make our experiences at the dentist as simple as possible from taking care of insurance questions, a pain free root canal, and treating my kids and making their experiences positive. Dr. Brabston even called me personally after my root canal to check on me. We are so happy with Living Oaks Dental.

Absolutely love seeing Dr. Brabsten at Living oaks dental. I cannot recommend him enough. He said to me once “You are such a good dental patient” it’s not that I am a good patient though, it’s because he is an amazing dentist. Very calming atmosphere and you always feel like you’re his only patient. If you’re looking to switch or just need to find a dentist, look no further!

Terrific place to get your teeth in tip top shape. Friendly staff, lots of genuine smiles, they remember your name, and Dr. Brabson goes above and beyond to help with dental care. My first visit was as a newbie in Fairhope with a dental issue. They took me in within minutes, took care of the problem within seconds, and then sent me on my way with my wallet intact and just friendly request that when I chose a dentist in the area they were available. I have been a patient every since. Thank you.

I came to US about 5 years ago and started going to Dr. Brabston with my husband and all his family. He is always nice and friendly, i always feel like im talking to a friend rather than a doctor. He fixed my teeth and gave me a lot of useful tips how to take care of them. I would recommend to everyone.

I scheduled an apt about 5 weeks out. I hadnt been to the Dentist in about 5 years. I made the apt for me and my husband for a side by side. Sandy the office staff was very friendly. I called her over the phone a few times to assure things with her, and she took her time out to explain a few things to me. They got us in quick. I was very nervous and didnt have enough finances to get the gas to relax you. Ashleigh who was my Hygenist came out to the room to speak to me to make sure I was relaxed and at ease when it came to cleaning my teeth, being an anxious person in all it was hard to relax. She assured me everything would be okay. My husband had an older lady. Not to seem mean. My husband stated she was kinda clumsy and squirted water in my eye when looking away, and she dropped and knocked tons of things over. i didnt find his experience to be quiet relaxing or comfortable. I recommended that we see Ashleigh. My husband told me she used a super sonic plaque remover. I know allot of Hygenists will get into a routine of using things they dont need to. I know everyones mouth is different. However me or my husband didnt appreciate that she had to use something powerful, instead of just using a regular metal tool. He felt like she was rushing him rather than just using what regular hygenists use. I asked Ashleigh if i had to have it done. She told me I dont do it routinely, unless someone actually needs it. I liked how Ashleigh doesnt use tools routinely, because sometimes you really dont Need it. My husband said it was as if she was just rushing and didnt want to take her time removing the plaque with a regular plaque remover. My husband said she made a 6th month apt date, however me and my husband wouldve rather spoke about how our visit went before we made another apt. Ashleigh had told me prior she didnt have to make an apt for me and wanted me to take the time to see if I really wanted to return. She was very nice, gentle, sweet, and careful. If we happen to return me and my husband decided Ashleigh would be the Hygienists to see. She didnt rush and took her time, unlike the Hygienists my husband had, I dont appreciate using tools routinely unless you need them. My experience was overall good and calming. I would highly recommend Ashleigh over any Hygienists. My husband doesnt feel comfortable with going back to the lady he had, however he is hoping Ashleigh will do a much better job, which i sure assured him that she would.
