We had a great visit with Packard Dental yesterday. Our 3 year old just got her 1st cleaning and dental check. She did great! Doctor Matt did a fine job with her and she won’t have any problems going back for more care. My hubby and I have been going here for over 30 years and wouldn’t think of going any where else. Thank you Packard Dental Group for ALL your great care over the years!!
Sincerely, the Clark’s
My mom and I have been Packard Dental patients for years, and have never left a comment before, but after years of observation, I felt I should share the best experience for everyone who is looking for a good dentist.
The Packard clinic is a very nice, clean, and organized place, the doctors, nurses, and staff are very polite and super nice, but the key is the doctors are very patient and knowledgeable, also the clinic has cutting-edge devices that make patients have the most comfortable and time-saving experience.
My mom wore her crown and left the clinic for just only one trip because the doctor did a very good design and the lab was just inside the clinic, the whole team did a very nice job, and my mom feel super comfortable with her new crown and the crown never needs any adjusting.
Also, the doctor very much cared for and considered his patient.
I got a night guard around two years ago from the clinic but I never use it, when I feel I need to wear it then I found it was too tight, I was going to the clinic to ask for help and after some adjusting, Dr. Matt decided to make a new night guard for me, even the night guard I got it already two years.
I just felt very grateful and happy with my new super fits night guard!
What an amazing, trusting, peace of mind dental clinic!
I will recommend Packard Dental to everyone I know!
I highly and strongly recommend it!
So kind, organized and efficient! I was running late and they accommodated my tardiness. Such high tech equipment to boot! They hit all the marks with delightful and friendly customer service, and top notch services. Definitely recommend Packard Dental and excited to work with them for the first time and into the future.
Fantastic 1st visit to Packard Dental. The office was spotless, and very inviting (for a dental practice, that’s a win for me)! Ali explained what to expect during my visit, Dr Matt was so thorough checking my teeth, and Callie was a wonderful hygienist who handled my sensitive teeth like the pro that she is. I would recommend this practice to anyone, especially those who doesn’t love dental visits.
The only dentist I trust! I’ve been going exclusively here for about 10 years. This week I went for myself and two small children. Dr. Jared is awesome with small kids who were nervous and does a great job for adults too. I really appreciate the explanations that Dr. Jared gives for work that needs (or doesn’t need) to be done. He has never tried to upsell me or make me feel like I need more work. He has always done a great job taking care of my family’s teeth!
The staff and hygienists are professional and friendly. Alison took my x-rays and cleaned my teeth. She made sure I was comfortable and used new, state of the art tools to clean my mouth. Belinda also helped. She did a great job of making sure I knew what was happening next and how to make sure I was always as comfortable as possible.
The building is great! Packard Dental is in a super clean, state of the art building in such a convenient location! Everything feels clean and fresh. The TVs in the ceiling make for a great distraction for children and adults alike.
10/10 would recommend to everyone!
I’m a new patient (my husband has been treated there for years) and the customer service was amazing from the minute I called to book my appointment. During my first appointment, I felt like family immediately. Packard Dental is incredible!
Came here for the first time after not going to the dentist for 5+ years (horrible – I know) and was so happy with my experience! Everyone I interacted with was so kind, professional, patient, and honest. I really appreciate the care that Packard Dental puts into providing a comfortable, positive experience, and top tier service. My teeth feel and look fabulous and I’m actually excited to go back for my next cleaning. Highly recommend for anyone shopping around for a new dentist. This is the only place you should go!
I have always had a positive experience at Packard Dental but this visit was exceptional. I had another appointment and let them know right at the beginning. The cleaning was exceptional and I was finished in plenty of time for my next appointment. I was very pleased.
My 11 year old daughter saw Tiffany & Dr Jared today, she had the best experience ever! She felt comfortable & liked the way they took care of her. We are happy to be a part of the Packard Dental family!
I started with Packard Dental about a year and a half ago. I highly recommend them if your searching for a Dentist. From the moment you walk in until you walk out. Very professional, kind, informative, and extremely friendly!
That depends on several factors, including the condition of your teeth. If you haven’t visited a dentist in years, your hygienist will likely require more time than usual to remove hardened tartar from your teeth. In addition, you may have more issues you’d like to address with your dentist during your exam. The average time for a cleaning and exam is about an hour.
If you wait until you are in pain, you already have a serious problem. On top of that, not all dental issues cause pain. By getting regular exams, you get the benefit of having dental professionals look at your mouth. We can identify potential concerns or catch them in the early stages. That allows us to fix them before you need expensive and invasive treatments.
It all depends on the type of treatment you receive during your appointment. If our dental team has applied fluoride treatments to your teeth, you’ll want to wait at least 30 minutes before you eat. Otherwise, there’s no reason to wait at all! However, many people prefer to wait awhile since their teeth and gums may feel slightly sensitive after cleaning.
