Patient Testimonials

Why do I like coming here is well yeah, they're friendly, and they are very cooperative financially and every other way. They gave me a credit, or I had a credit for some money that I had gotten back, and was unexpected, and they could've kept the money, and I would've never known the difference. But they gave me the money, and that won me over, there.

I'm just totally satisfied with the way they do, and the way they operate here. It's, I don't, I've never been to a better place, I can put it that way.

And, it's all one stop. You can get everything done with one stop. I have had dental history where I get one thing done, and then have to drive across town to get a root canal to get it done somewhere else. But here you can get everything that you need, and it's a lot less hassle.

Dr. Herbert is my main doctor, and he's just, he's a wonderful person. I enjoy him. We've communicated on about the same plane, and he's a good communicator with his patients, well with me anyway. He's a very good communicator with me. I'm pretty well assured of what's coming when it comes.

I know that needle will pinch a little bit, but I don't worry about that now, not like I did when I was young person. I was very anxious, but at this age, and knowing the experience of these people, I'm at ease, I don't have any problem with that.

He gives me a chance, he allows my input as well, and we make decisions based on some of my input and his input and we come out with what we think is the best solution to the problem. I just told the lady, I told her, I said, “Is this your first time?“ She was filling out the application I said, and she said, “Yes.“ I said, “Well I think you've made the right choice.“ I said, “I'm, I've got a little age on me,“ and she did too, I didn't of course get into that. But I told her, “I think you've made the right choice, because you get everything done here under one roof.“ And she had had the same experience that I had had, she'd get something done and then have to go across town to get something else done, and that's a big deal, that's a big selling point here.

And I'd certainly recommend it, anybody looking for a dentist.

I had some issues with my teeth. I didn't take care of them the way I should have. I had chemotherapy almost 10 years ago now, and that apparently has wreaked havoc on my gums, so I ended up having to have all of them pulled. I initially came for a cavity, and then we found all of the other issues that were going on, so they went ahead and pulled all of them. They gave me some Valium to take before I got here to help with that anxiety in the beginning when they pulled to teeth, one to take an hour before my visit and then one to take when I got here. I ended up not needing to take the second one. I just took the first one. It worked. It calmed me down enough, and with their help, I was calm enough that I didn't have to take the second one.

When they pulled the 12 of them, I didn't realize just how much it was affecting me and how I wasn't sick, but I didn't feel well, until after they were pulled and the healing process began. Then I realized just how much it was affecting how I felt on a daily basis. It's 100% better now that they're gone. I had to be careful of how hard it was to chew something, because my teeth hurt initially, before we had anything done. I couldn't drink cold water. Everything I drank I had to drink through a straw, because it hurt. My teeth were just that sensitive. It just hurt to drink.

I don't have to do that anymore. That's a wonderful thing too. I can just, you know, get a bottle of water and drink it, and don't have to worry about finding a straw, and don't have to worry about whether it's too hot or too cold. THat's a very nice thing, because I'd been dealing with that for a couple of years actually, where my teeth have just been really sensitive, so that's a good thing.

I wasn't sure when I had them pulled if I was just going to stick with the denture or if I was going to do the implants. After having it for six months or so, I really prefer to have the implants done. I think it's going to be well worth it when it's all said and done. I'm more confident now than I was before I had my teeth pulled, but it's been a process, you know, getting the temporary denture in place and having to learn how to eat and how to talk. You pretty much have to do everything over again. There's a little bit of a learning curve there, but once you figure it out it works well. I'm really looking forward to being able to talk the way I used to.

I definitely recommend it. Yes. Definitely. The whole process. For me, it took a while, because I had so many other issues going on, and it'll end up being a little over a year long process to get mine done, but it's definitely worth the time and money to invest in doing it.

Dr. Griffin told me what I needed and he ended up giving me eight veneer and actually he just did all my teeth up here except for the last two in the back. They don't show anyway. When I came in, he put it in. It was no time at all and he said, "All right, here's a mirror." I looked at it and I said, "Wow!" Honestly, I didn't expect too many people to say anything about it because you know you don't talk about people's teeth. "Boy, your teeth look great. What'd you do?" I said, "I brushed 'em." No, I told 'em, I said, "Mine look good too and you need to go see Dr. Griffin."

I did it purely for cosmetic. I had one bridge that was near needing replaced. I'd had it for 20 years or more. I thought it was a good opportunity to do that and to be honest with you I can't tell I've got anything different in my mouth. It feels natural. As far as I'm concerned it looks natural and that's what I was really concerned about. I know a lot of people are afraid to go to the dentist. Seriously, because it's not a pleasant experience sitting in that chair, them drilling on you and all that kind of stuff but his staff talk to you the whole time you're doing something.

They were talking to me about things I'm involved in and we just got it done and it was done before I realized they were doing it. It was a very easy process and I think probably one of the best things about the whole ordeal was they worked with me on getting my teeth done. I didn't have to write a thousand dollar check. They worked with me and it was entirely from start to finish a very pleasant experience. One of the things I have been asked is, "Do you think I would like going to him?"

I tell everybody that I know that's mentioned it that it would be one of the most pleasant visits to any doctor you've ever been to because they take care of you, they make you feel like you're part of the family, and they want to make sure that you're happy when you leave. I really appreciate that and matter of fact, I got a phone call not 30 days afterwards, "Are you still happy?" Then I ran into one of the young ladies that work up here at the grocery store and said, "Bill, how's your teeth doing? You still happy with them?" I said, "I sure am." "I'll pass it on to the Doc." So now when I'm looking into the camera doing my show I don't mind looking at myself. You know, I actually kind of say, "Man, that guy's got a decent smile under my face."
