The 1st time i walked through the door i felt like i was welcomed there. The dr was very knowledgeable of my situation. Listened to my concerns and i thought finally a dentist i can see eye to eye.
I had a cap fall out and Carmel Dental got me in and fixed up within the hour, the same day. They are my trusted dental services.
The people at Carmel dental have made going to the dentist so much easier. From booking and helping with insurance issues to making you feel comfortable and relaxed in the chair. Haven’t missed a cleaning in years!
I've tried a few dentists in the area I'm only sorry I haven't found this dentist's office sooner from the front staff to the hygienist and of course the doctor everybody is terrific
Make you feel at home. No rushing! Calm, friendly knowledgeable friendly staff. I have been with this same dentist for over 20+ years.
Lovely office. Caring staff, knowledgeable dentist. Made my mom feel very comfortable
