At the same time, he reassured me that though my problem was complicated - my teeth were otherwise healthy -- and that after seeing the periodontist, he would deal with the other issues. And, he even worked to schedule the appointment. I could not have asked for more or has a better experience. I feel totally blessed to have crossed his path.

My parents have been coming to this office for years, but recently while I was in town, I had a bone fragment issue in my jaw that required immediate care. In one hours time, I went from being in constant pain, to being in total relief with no aftereffects whatsoever. Dr. Pierce's communication and skills put me at ease mentally throughout the entire process, and soon I was asking "is that it? You're done?" A recommendation for these amazing people at this office hardly seems enough, but here it is... If you are in need of a dentist, Dr Pierce is your woman! I'm actually looking forward to my next dental visit. That's how good these folks are!!

I was referred to Forsyth Periodontal to treat my perio issues. I had seen a different provider…read morethat gave me a ridiculous quote and was very rude. This was not the case with Forsyth. The front desk staff was kind and efficient. Took care of my paperwork and got my dental card scanned. Then the dental assistant took me back to do an assessment and took additional xrays. She was kind and detailed in everything she was doing. She even brought me out a warm blanket since they keep the office cold. I met with Dr. Suttle and he was amazing. He was very detailed with my issues, discussed how they approach things conservatively initially. They have a 4 part approach to their care before they determine if more advanced treatment is needed. Your first visit is with your dental hygienist who spends an hour with you teaching you tips and tricks to do at home to maximize care. The next 2 appointments are your deep cleaning. It has a new name now but I forgot it. They clean one side at a time. And then 6 weeks after your deep cleaning, you have another assessment to determine next steps. They do require out of pocket up front at the first visit but they will assist you with the paperwork for you to submit to your dental insurance for possible reimbursement. They are also extremely affordable compared to others in the area. I highly recommend this office if you are having issues that require more advance treatment.

So this is my second extraction/implant experience and it was fantastic. First: understand that none of this is pleasant. But when I say fantastic I mean no issues: from walking into the office for the check, to care getting the X-rays and scheduling, to getting my pre med for sedation (two lorazepams = no more anxiety! Hazah!) and them wheeling me in from the car with my husband driving of course, the experience and quality of care is wonderful. I would minus a star because I can't eat anything crunchy until my stitch is removed, but that's my problem from past Jen not caring for her teeth. I feel like my pain was well managed, my anxiety was well seen and cared for. I hope you don't need him, but Dr. Pierce is top of the line. Very caring and good doctor with great assistance!

I agree with a previous reviewer - the clear priority with this practice is payment of fees…read more Patient care is considerably lower on the list. When I called to make an initial appointment - after my primary dentist had sent a referral - I was immediately read what sounded like a script about their fees. No one ever inquired about my dental problem or whether or not I was in pain, etc. When I managed to clear the financial hurdles (no small feat) and met Dr. Nicole Wright I'm sorry to say I was not impressed. She spent more time talking to her assistant than me and seemed unprofessional at times, including making disparaging remarks about another patient in my presence. I decided not to have a procedure with this practice.

I had a root canal scheduled today and was seen by Dr. Joyce Munn. Dr. Munn was extremely…read moreprofessional, friendly and informative. When she administered the numbing agent it was completely painless. Her technique was the best I have ever experienced. She also used only the amount necessary for the procedure itself to be painless and did not over use the agent to where my face was numb for hours. The root canal procedure was done very quickly and again painlessly. I have had numerous dental procedures over many years and I must say that today was by far one of the best dental experiences I have ever had. Moreover, she did everything required in one session and not requiring additional procedures on another day. I told Dr. Munn that her dental work on me today was fabulous and I was going to tell everyone that should they require her services, I wholeheartedly endorse her professional quality of care. It was amazing.

Due to a great job offer from Catawba Valley Health System in Hickory, NC, I left Duke University…read moreto move west. I was in the final phase of needing my dental implant finalized when the offer came. Dr. Brian Vandersea at Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery in Durham, NC, referred me to my present dentist, Dr. Michael Cordora. It was a fantastic recommendation. Because I have been so pleased with Dr. Cordora and his staff's services, I want to let others know about the gem tucked away on 236 9th Ave Dr NE Hickory. Dr. Cordora has been my dentist for 3 years now. His services are top notch. My implant is great and without problems. I love his entire team; however, let me tell you about Lilia, my dental hygienist. I was actually apprehensive about going there and being in an unfamiliar area with strangers. Lilia was and is a God-send. She quickly made me feel comfortable like I was at home with a friend. Her skillful cleaning is applied effortlessly as she discusses topics that effectively distract you from what she is doing. My teeth feel fantastic when she is finished and it is not painful at all. Somehow she makes the time fly by and makes the experience pleasant. Did you hear that? Going to a dentist is pleasant!!! I completely trust Lilia and her professional services along with Dr. Cordora and his entire team. If you are searching for a dentist in Hickory, I would like to offer the wonderful suggestion of Dr. Cordora and his staff just like Dr. Vandersea offered me this gift.
