I have been a patient with Lafayette Dental Excellence for several years. Until a couple days ago,…read moreit was just for the standard cleaning and maintenance needs. On Monday (8/10/26) I needed to have two cavities filled which I have not needed in 20+ years. I was understandably anxious after some poor experiences at other practices. Dr Leo was a consummate professional and his "chairside" manner immediately put me at ease. Throughout the procedure he and his assistant Jane were comforting and checked in with me often to ensure I was calm and relaxed. They clearly focus on patient care in what can be a very nerve wracking environment. I will continue to recommend this practice to all my friends and family. THANK YOU, Dr Leo and team, for making what could have been a nightmare a quick and painless experience!

We had a long conversation and got things sorted out. My main concern was that this rescheduling was a tiny blip on the radar and what would happen if there was a bigger issue? We have agreed for everyone to move on and act like this never happened. My kids are rescheduled for September. I will take my review down completely after their appointment. I'm hoping everything goes well and we have all actually moved on from this situation.

Stayed throughout COVID & them billing us for "PPE" (later learned that a lot of dental offices didn't charge for this). Yes, his wife is friendly, but also was rough as a hygienist goes in my experience, so switched and was content afterwards. The office has a new sign up at front that explains why "just a cleaning" is not going to be acceptable...a reddish flag for me, especially when I've been in the position of needing to switch dentists less than a year from my last dental x-rays and wanted to stay current with 6-month cleanings. Finally, these pics are of the old office, not the current.

Sage did, but she kept giving me numbing shots then checking if the proper area was numbed, it took several shots and meantime it seemed she was injecting in the improper place because my throat was becoming numb while it took three placement tries before my lip where she was tapping was.

Then, the replacement filling was weirdly rough on the side of my tooth, other dentists remarked on the weirdness of it later, and part of it fell off after a couple years.

I tried 2 other dentists in town and neither of them could compete with Dr. Martin. The moment I walked into the clinic, I was greeted by a welcoming environment. The staff at the front desk were friendly and attentive, reassuring; I felt at ease from the moment I arrived. My experience at James Martin's clinic exceeded my expectations. When I first met Dr. Martin, he made me feel like I was talking to an old friend. Our conversation completely put me at ease, and I felt my anxiety diminishing. The combination of a great dentist a pleasant atmosphere, great staff, and high-quality care made my visit stress-free and even enjoyable. The aftercare was also great. They called the same day making sure that I was doing ok with another phone call the following day to check in. I would highly recommend James Martin DMD Dental office to anyone seeking reliable and compassionate dental care.

They took care of me immediately and scheduled an appointment for two root canals with an endodontist (Mark Wood) that they partner with in the same building. I was on an antibiotic for a few days prior to the endodontic treatment, which was also a stellar experience, and following these root canals walked upstairs to BCS to finish the procedure with fillings on the crowns the endodontist worked through. I was in and out for two rear molar root canals and follow-up treatment in two hours, start to finish! I've since been back for the new patient process, full x-rays, exam, scheduled cleaning, and the experience was as good as any I've ever had. Everyone person on BCS staff has been welcoming and capable. They also seamlessly handled insurance billing, and their prices seem affordable with or without insurance.

Awful experience!! I…read morewent to Comfort Dental in Lafayette due to severe tooth pain, without dental insurance, specifically because of their "Gold Plan" -- advertised to have steep discounts and free preventive care. That's not how it played out. During my first visit, the dentist doesn't even examine me. Doesn't look in my mouth. Just glances at my x-ray and says "your tooth root is infected," slaps me on antibiotics, and schedules me for an extraction. No other options given, nothing. Just pull it. I paid over $600 for that whole debacle. Horrible, painful experience. Two months later I went back for what was supposed to be a routine cleaning. The hygienist did the bare minimum -- essentially brushed my teeth and called it done. Then I was told it would cost $30, and that all visits carry this fee, despite the plan advertising free preventive care. Are you kidding? I'm still fighting this one. Between the lack of an actual exam before recommending an extraction, the low-effort cleaning, and being charged for something advertised as free, this whole experience felt like false advertising, maybe fraud? Save your money and your teeth and go literally anywhere else.
