A special thank you goes to Katylyn L. for this review and for referring me to this dental office…read more She told me the office was offering gift cards to either the Moose's Tooth or Massage Envy for any new clients that walk in. I have to admit I've never been eager to go to the dental office even if it's just for a cleaning. It was time to see them especially since I had some mild nerve pain in one of my lower teeth and the fact that I haven't been to the dentist's office since 2003 (However, I brush my teeth on a regular basis and I don't smoke so that can be a good excuse for being away for so long). This office is located in a small two-story office building next to Major Marine Tours and across the street from the Carrs shopping center. I came in to the reception area and Michelle gave me a friendly greeting upon entering. I had to take a few minutes to fill out the new client paperwork before starting my dental check-up. The seating area is small and cozy with a TV set along with several magazines and children's books to pass the time while waiting. If you have insurance like Denali Care, they gladly accept this. My card covered the entire cost of the visit which was $231.00. Another good reason to make your dental appointments here. Drs. Andrew Newman and Jennifer Driggs were very friendly and professional upon meeting them for the first time. They addressed all of my concerns regarding questions on my nerve pain and tooth conditions. Dr. Driggs did an outstanding job with the dental cleaning and now I can show off my goofy grin wherever I go. Nichole at the front desk was also very friendly and helpful in setting up my next appointment. Great location in a decent part of town, friendly staff, and definitely recommend to fellow Yelpers for exceptional work. Oh, and don't forget to take advantage of the free gift card!

Glad I got a second opinion who confirmed the procedure was not medically necessary. I wonder if they are pushing these procedures to make more money.

I also read a few horror stories about this place, so I likely will not be returning. I gave an extra star as the employees working the front desk are super friendly.

I went specifically for a cleaning but was told I had to come back. By this point, I had already invested my time and effort and I went back for the following reasons: - I liked Dr. Tudor - The office was clean, inviting and full of modern equipment. I've now been here for two cleanings and have been attended to by the same hygienist, who is very thorough. You know you got a good cleaning when you leave with some pain (good pain)! Except on my last visit, she nearly chipped my tooth by pulling out the reflection mirror too quickly (bad pain). I'll be back, mainly because I don't feel like searching for yet another new dentist and also because I do feel like they are honest. I inquired about both whitening and Invisalign and they advised I did not need either.

When scheduling for my check up 6 month later, does anyone really know what time and day they'll be available in six months. Well of course we schedule anyways and then two months before hand I see if I can change it. The lady says they're booked out till August. So if I cancel my March appointment, it will be a full year before I'm seen again. I think this is common in Anchorage. We don't have enough dentist that they're booked out a whole year? The lady couldn't really help me and I didn't wanna cancel so I just left it. I have to remember to call them if I can't go so I don't get charged $50. Seems a little ridiculous. The dentist also had a tremor when he was doing my filling. I don't know if that's an everyday thing or what, but I was a little nervous.

I've been coming to Huffman Family Dentistry for a while and have enjoyed my experience over time…read morebut most recently, one of the receptionist, Patty, was very short and rude. Called me the day prior to confirm my appointment and I recall our conversation juggling between the idea of putting me on a short list and pushing me out to May 2026 or me potentially making the appointment if i could make it work. Towards the end of our conversation, Patty hung up on me and I was left with the assumption that I was being rescheduled to May 2026 and placed on a short list. The next day, I received a call from Patty asking if I was going to make my appointment. Confused by the call because I was under the impression that I was being rescheduled to May 2026 and didn't get any clarity on the appointment because i was hung up on. Even when trying to make the appointment that Patty said i was still able to make, I wasn't able to be seen and was charged a $50 dollar fee due to a misunderstanding. Several times during my interaction with Patty i said, "I really think this is a misunderstanding" but she unprofessionally would say, "I don't think so" or "the last thing you said is you'd be here". But again, because I was hung up on, I was unsure of what the agreement was. The last thing I recall was I was being rescheduled to May. Customers aren't always right, but they should always feel heard. I wasn't trying to make an excuse, I simply was trying to explain my side of the misunderstanding but I was dismissed. Again, the staff here is always great and this was my first time interacting with Patty. Just wasn't the best experience compared to my prior visits to Huffman Family Dentistry.

As someone who has avoided a dentist's office for 32 years, due to utter terror, i would say that…read moreTurnagain Dental are able to deal with the wimpiest of patients. Due to my avoidance of dental offices, i had 4 broken molars, where pieces had been crumbling off for the past few years, and it was only due to the fact that i started experiencing pain, that i forced myself to go. I had toothache, not agonizing, but moderate, for 5 full months before i plucked up the courage to call and make an appointment, and i was utterly terrified, let me tell you. I had my initial exam, and i was shaking in the chair. Having avoided treatment for 32 years comes with consequences, and as such i needed 5 fillings in my upper teeth, and the 4 broken molars - Dr. Kennedy recommended extraction under IV sedation, for which i was referred to Anchorage Oral and Implant Surgery. I was to come in the following day for my fillings, and i was told to come at 10, for a pre-med, as i had asked for one. By the time i went for the appointment at 10, i was somewhat calmer, and told Jordynn, i didn't think i needed the pre-med. She said I'd still be given the Nitrous Oxide, and as I didn't need the pre-med, i was to return at 11am, which I did. I had the Nitrous, and a couple of injections in my upper gums -- nice that they put a numbing jelly on, prior to injecting. However, the REAL injection - the one that prevented me from returning for treatment for 32 years, is the one that gets injected right into the hinge of your jaw, and feels like an electric shock - i was not required to have that one, fortunately. Dr Kennedy was very fast with my 5 fillings that i needed. It was all over with in less than an hour. A couple of weeks following the offending molars being extracted, i called the office, and asked when i needed to come in, and start work on a partial denture. Jordynn told me i needed to get my deep cleaning first. I was actually quite horrified when she mentioned that a deep cleaning requires numbing also. I did not know this, and i of course Googled what a deep cleaning entailed, and was even more anxious to read that they're going to use an ultrasonic THING to go below the gumline and break up calculus, that had been building for 32 years. Gross. I made my appointment and Erin was the hygienist. She did an examination where she went around prodding and dictating into a program, how receding my gums were. And then got started. To be fair, the upper right hand side of my teeth went fairly ok, and i couldn't really feel much, but it was very lengthy, took an hour and a half, and i believe the calculus was quite difficult to break down. We scheduled a second visit for the upper left, and this was more unpleasant. Erin had ordered a product containing sulphuric acid to help break down the calculus. SO that was a little less work. But 3 of the teeth refused to numb (And i had the maximum anesthetic, i think i had 6 or 7 in my gums and another 2 in the roof of my mouth) but these 3teeth just wouldn't numb for some reason. Anyway, we got them done, despite me jumping frequently. The bottom teeth - i had 1 wisdom tooth left on the left side - Erin came at me with the syringe, and. Stopped her and said "Is that THE injection?" Meaning the horrible one into jaw hinge. I told her, THAT injection had stopped me coming to dentist for 32 years. She said ok, and gave me gum injections instead, and it was fine, it didn't hurt. I had some sensitivity with my 2 bottom front teeth but we got there in the end. She is thorough, and the difference in my teeth (I was a former smoker, the backs of my teeth were brown, but are now white) is EPIC. I 100% recommend Erin, and Turnagain Dental, if you're a wimp like me.

I had the best, most thorough teeth cleaning in my life here. It was amazing. She did not rush and took her sweet time. 5 stars. My dentist actually sat down and talked with me for a good 20 minutes. He even talked about preventative care and my 5, 10, 20 year plan. Just so I would be aware that maybe in 10 years, I will need a crown. So, I guess I can start saving now - ha. I chatted with them on my tooth sensitivities and he gave me some prescription toothpaste on the house to try out. That was super nice. So, if you are looking for a nice place that takes their time with patients, come here. They have high Yelp reviews for a reason.

For example the office manager is not authorized, or the owner has to approve it, or they have to check the records, etc. This is been going on for months.
