Dr.Baker, where to start! He is absolutely I mean absolutely the VERY BEST!!! He truly cares for his patients and listen to their concerns! I’ve had a bad experience with the dentist when I was younger and since then I have been terrified of going back and letting them do work on my mouth. I knew I had to be a big girl Face my fears and get the work done that needed to be done. I am so glad I chose Dr.Baker to be my dentist, he treated me with respect, kindness, and much more! And to tell you the truth I never once felt anything, I was so scared I would feel the shots but the way he did it I never felt a thing. He knew I was scared and talked to me throughout the whole thing and let me know he was still there. Dr.Baker if you see this YOU ARE THE VERY VERY BEST and I can’t thank you enough. I have bragged about you to everyone!!!!

It's a bummer to run a business that no one wants to come see you. I do that with running my Defensive Driving courses so I experience this all the time. The bottom line no one wants to have to come to the dentist. But, if you need dental services, this is the best place I have ever been to! From the ladies who answer the phone, to the ladies who give you the paperwork to fill out, to the wonderful, great personality, and helpful dental assistant (I didnt catch her name - the redhead), to the awesome Doctor. I Love this place! They dont rush you through. They know what they are doing, and answer your questions. If they have to send you to a specialist (like a root canal) they send you to the best. You will not have a better dental experience than this place!

My teeth were falling apart because of health problems, and I have reactions to many ingredients. The wonderful people at Smile Dental worked to identify anything that contained the allergens, so I was able to have dental work done without being sick for days afterwards. The deterioration was happening so quickly that the doctors recommended dramatic action - crowns on all remaining teeth to save them. They came up with a plan that was workable for me. Almost done and I am so thrilled!! I did this to save my teeth, but I also got the benefit of looking so much better! Dr. Fuch is an artist and I am so proud to have benefited from his talents. Thank you!!!!

I don't take the time to write a bad review unless I have a really bad experience, at which point I consider it a public duty... so that's what this is. Bottom line: based on my expereince, this guy is a bad dentist. I'm not even talking about prices or customer service or any of that. Straight up, my husband and both have pretty good and well taken care of teeth, but the work he did left us both with tooth pain for More than a year after. We each got (our first) crowns, and neither one felt right after. He gave me a few fillings that were extra sensitive and still caused me pain for months and months after. Ive had prob ten filling in my life, but had never experienced that. Also, he dropped his tools - we both experienced this! No he didn't put them in my mouth after that....but still, that did Not put me at ease! I have a friend who had a pretty badly botched procedure from him as well, worse than mine. I don't know what the deal is.....but I must highly un-recommend and wish I had read a review like this before I went. I'm going to a new dentist this month and am hopeful she can fix whatever was done poorly and give me some insight into what happened, based on what she sees.

I came into this dental office really desperate. I've had my porcelain veneers for almost 15 years now. My prior dentist wanted to replace all and ruin me financially. My first procedure here was the removal of a dead tooth in b/w my veneers. I was dreading this experience bc that tooth was so sensitive. I went in and Dr. David removed that tooth. The local anesthetic is a big deal for me. I didn't feel so much as pinch when gave me the shot(that takes some skill, folks). I am now getting that tooth replaced with a crown. Sheslay assisted dr. David in the temporary crown "installation". This is not easy at all. She literally has to shape and mold a temp tooth in your mouth that will last for several weeks. I've had horrific temporary teeth in the past, and this is by far the best i've had. I even got a compliment. I recommend this place to people that want quality work done. They also send the crowns off to be cut. Don't be fooled, many offices advertise in house crowns, but are they quality? I go back in on Feb 5 for my new crown. I am actually excited for the appointment bc I love this place.

This is one of the best dentists experiences I’ve ever had. I’m quite squeamish when it comes to cavity fillings and they were exceptional. The comfort level is high, friendliness and amenities are high as well. I would recommend anyone who doesn’t love going to the dentists to come here. Their high tech makes everything easier for me and them!

Dr. Baker and staff are unbelievable, I’ve never had a dentist literally sit down and go over every aspect of my dental history and what things I wanted done. Yes I sad DENTIST not dental assistant, taking that extra 5 min was a game changer for me and I’ll never use another dental office again. The day after having preemie twin boys that were in the nicu, I got the worst abscess cavity and was in so much pain but smile dental got me right in and got me on antibiotics which saved the tooth and allowed the pain to go away so I could be there for my family. The transparency and quality of there work goes above and beyond any other dental office where they make you a number not a person. I can not recommend this dental office enough!
