Higgins & White Dental on Southside - I can't say enough great things about this practice. Dr…read more White, the hygienists, and the front desk staff are all so kind, knowledgeable, and professional. This office is in it for the people, not the money. After years without dental care and a move to the Jacksonville area, my boyfriend and I were looking for somewhere to go and we were referred to this office by a friend. After coming here, I can confidently say I wouldn't feel comfortable going anywhere else. We both needed extensive work done and they made it all so easy to digest. They are also very explanatory and you can tell they do their best to work with you when necessary. You can communicate with them easily via phone, and you're able to text them as well! If I could give them more stars, I would. Thank you all for always being there for us!

After my 1st dental experience, I was referred to Dr Higgins by a coworker. He helped clarify my problems and avoid unnecessary procedures! I have now been going to him for five years, and I have no issues. He is quite busy with appointments, but he will answer all of your questions. More importantly, he will not make you do unnecessary procedures and pay extra money

My family were searching for a new dentist in the area and we found Island Dentistry. We could not…read morebe more happy with the staff and the dentists. The front desk is very welcoming, professional, and courteous. My teenage son was first seen for a cleaning and consultation for several extractions. The hygienist was amazing. I let her know my concerns and she was very understanding. She made sure that my son knew all of the consequences for not taking care of his teeth. She is amazing! I am terrible with names but I do believe her name was April. If I am wrong please forgive me. He later saw Dr. Scales for fillings and teeth extractions he had zero complications or complaints. His mind was at ease and he was told what was being done and what to expect every step of the way. As I waited in the waiting area they made sure to let me know how he was doing a couple times throughout the procedure. Afterwards, Again I am terrible with names, the young lady with beautiful red hair, was very thorough with the after care instructions I was confident in what needed to be done at home. I had a very small filling fall out and they were able to make an appointment for me quickly. Before my appointment I had a bigger filling fall out, they got me in and were able to assess the problem and do a temporary fix until my appointment and made sure I was not in pain over the weekend. I saw Dr. Moreno and he was amazing. His staff put my mind at ease, as I have a fear of the numbing shots. I did not even feel the shots or anything else during the entire procedure. They made my crown the same day, so I did not have to get a temporary crown and take more time off of work for another appointment to get the permanent crown. Again I am bad with names, this young lady is from Kentucky, and she made sure my crown was perfect. Her and Dr. Moreno made sure that all of my concerns and questions were addressed before I went home. The young ladies at the counter when you leave are great as well. They have always addressed any questions I had. I know there are some behind the scenes people whom I have never met but they answer the phone when I call and they are amazing. They always explain everything to me and make sure I completely understand before we hang up. As I stated earlier they made appointments for me very quickly when needed, even called me if there was a cancellation so I could be seen sooner. Sorry but not sorry for the long review enough cannot be said about this office. Thank you for all you do!

Working with Macy was very pleasant during the intake process and x-rays, Charlie did a great job with my initial deep cleaning and then a follow up regular cleaning, and Dr. Burton did a superb job of removing an old filling and putting in a new crown. Dr. Burton also identified a problem that I was having with a long time impacted wisdom tooth, which had developed a cyst which was pressing on a nerve; she referred me to an Oral surgeon, who did a fantastic job of removing the tooth and cyst, with no numbness or loss of taste. As for the office staff, they have always been very friendly and helpful. I could not be happier with the practice.

18 years ago a cardiologist at Mayo recommended Dr. Salko, and I am very glad I was referred to…read morehim! I had visited a mall dentist when I first moved to town, and suddenly I had two cavities and had been grinding my teeth. After one time getting the fillings I was left with extreme sensitivity to temperatures. After the SECOND time I still had issues. Know what the mall dentist said? That I needed root canals! Imagine! From suddenly-appearing and non-issue "cavities" to root canals within 6 weeks! I was not believing my ears and so I wanted another dentist, happened to be at another doctor and asked. So I explained my concerns to Dr. Salko and he asked if he could try to redo the fillings. As he was grinding away the hack-job from the prior dentist, Dr. Salko was verbally amazed at how poorly the other dentist's technique was. The fillings were those composite jobbers and require proper technique, otherwise issues arise like mine. 18 years later, I never had the root canals and have not had a problem since. Oh - I also don't grind my teeth (there is no evidence that I do), so the mall dentist was enriching his own pocket with that one. Since this work 18 years ago, my twice-a-year time with Dr. Salko consists of him wearing his microscopic glasses, poking around a couple places, and telling me that my teeth are looking great.
