I flew in for procedures that only my dentist could perform in one day and found out my dentist was no longer there when I arrived for my appointment...it had been scheduled for 8 months and the provider gone for a few...didnt get a notification or heads up although my email and address were up to date. I found out they notified other patients, just not me...great customer service, especially since I held off on this work for such a long time and even took a day off of work to fly in early specifically for this. After my experience with this staff face to face, I pin it down to incompetence or laziness. To add to that (and the purpose for this review) I received a bill for my visit FOUR MONTHS LATER....when I did my own investigation (because I truly don't trust this office staff) I saw that the insurance paid their portion of the balance in the early first week of August...the bill I received was dated 11/11...again, incompetence or laziness? I haven't lived in Kansas for many years, but always maintained my relationship with this office because of the OUTSTANDING customer service and communication. The old expectations of awesome service are gone, replaced by new, much lower standards. I would absolutely avoid if at all possible.

It's a pretty busy practice, but they know my name when I come in, and I don't go that frequently (usually twice a year for cleanings and exams). I went to Dr. Willingham this afternoon for the first visit to get a crown put on an old molar that had a huge filling. The tooth finally broke (after 40 years of being filled) and a crown is necessary. Dr. Willingham seems to be very careful and thorough doing this kind of work. He's done other crowns for me, and they've all been fine and given no problems after they were put on. I tend to be a bit resistant to dental anesthesia -- it takes a while for me to become really numb, and it often takes some extra doses to do the trick. Dr. Willingham has been very patient about that, and has been very attentive to whether or not I was feeling any sensation while he's drilling away! I've also been pleased with the dental cleanings I've had here -- the hygienists are pleasant and seem to be very thorough. I tend to get gingivitis easily, but since being on a regular schedule for cleanings every six month my gums are in much better shape. My only quibble has been over billing -- at times I've gotten bills for services that should have been covered by my dental insurance. (It's compounded by the fact that I've got confusing primary and secondary dental insurance.) However, it's always been easy to straighten out any problems, and their staff is good about working with the insurance companies to get my coverage to stretch as far as it can! If you need a good dentist out in JoCo, I can recommend Dr. Willingham and Oak Park Dental.

I have been very fortunate to have healthy teeth although I have worn dental braces for a number of years, as a child as the alignment of my teeth was extremely bad and would have led to losing my teeth at an early age and having to wear dentures. I wore braces and had orthodontic treatment since grade 1 through me telling the dr. (While in college) Um, you have to get these off by a certain date as I'm getting married and moving to a different city, I won't be back- wind this up and finish. And then again as an adult (to correct what the original orthodontist did as a child). To say that I was extremely nervous was an understatement given my orthodontic care as a child. They probably didn't realize the extent of my fear but I did say that I was nervous. They all kept me informed about what to do and what the next step was of the treatment and what would happen. They were all AWESOME!! Needless to say, if you are looking for a dentist, GO to this office for your regular dental care. They are focused on all their patients, to bring the best available technology to their care! Thank you again to the entire team!!

After a hiatus from Dr.Bridenstein, I called and made two appointments, I did not know about Dr.Boldry until they put myself and daughter into cancellation appointments so we got in sooner.

The RDHs are always friendly and go out of their way to make our visits comfortable, whether offering pillows, blankets, specific flavors of tooth polish or a movie to help take our minds off dental matters. The ladies at the desk up front who deal with the business side always make our insurance coverage easy to understand even when I've forgotten some of the details I should know in advance. They make every effort to check on prices of services when I ask, and they can help set up payment plans if needed. They are kind and considerate when I need to reschedule an appointment, and they always welcome my family when we enter the office. Likewise, Dr. Bridenstine makes every effort to be sure dental services are stellar. We have always had a positive experience with his sedation dentistry, and he provides a thorough explanation of options when available. We have only experienced excellence in his work, and we have appreciated how he goes above and beyond to create a positive outcome for his patients. A couple of years ago, I returned to his office two extra times at no charge just so he could alleviate some discomfort I had after a filling needed to be filed a little more delicately. While I was numb, I hadn't noticed. Yet, he made it right a second time even after I wasn't sure about it the first time I returned. Now, that's patience for your patient! All the staff members work diligently to make dental visits pleasant. I have always appreciated their use of soft, professional voices via individual headsets to prioritize communication and timeliness while maintaining privacy. The entire practice operates in a well-orchestrated manner while each employee treats one another with respect and kindness. They have created a culture of team effort that works for the good of the patient, and I highly recommend their dentistry practice.

Following a very traumatic experience with my former dentist, I'm embarrassed to admit that, up…read moreuntil December, it had been at least 5 years since I'd been to the dentist. I take care of my teeth (ok, ok, I don't floss), but I haven't been maintaining them because I was afraid to go back to the dentist -- any dentist. Add to that the fact that I apparently am incapable of picking up a phone and calling to make an appointment, and things were getting rough. Turns out not ONLY is Dr. Carol Akers and the team members at her practice, In Harmony Dental Care, able and willing to communicate via text message, email or phone (whatever works for you), they're also all kind, responsive, courteous, bi-lingual, and just generally pretty amazing. My first visit in December was for a cleaning and check-up. First impressions: clean, comfortable office; state-of-the-art equipment; friendly staff; good, calming music playing; and they paid attention. Before m hygienist brought Dr. Akers in, I had told her that I had a bad experience previously. When Dr. Akers came into the room, she asked about it, validated my concerns, and talked about how we could communicate and work with one another to make sure I always felt safe. Following the exam, it was evident that the 5 years away from regular check-ups had taken their toll (the pain in my mouth had kinda hinted at that). Dr. Akers explained everything I needed to have done and ballparked me an overall cost, but scheduled a brief consult follow-up so that she could work up a full plan to review with me. A week later we met in the office and she reviewed my entire prioritized care plan (can't wait, can wait, let's keep an eye on this) and the estimated price and then we compared that against my dental insurance and my financial situation and adjusted so that we could be sure that I maximized my annual dental plan and minimized my out of pocket cost. We've started working on the plan and every visit has been almost completely pain free and, believe it or not, relaxing. She hums when she works and I always giggle a little and she apologizes. With my mouth full of stuff, I try to assure her that my giggles are in appreciation of the calming that her sweet hums provide. When she can't find another tune to catch her fancy, she turns to Christmas carols. And I love it. I had a lot of visits between December and February, but now I'm done with my work for a bit. Not gonna lie, when I was leaving after my last visit, I felt a little sad and knew that I was going to miss Dr. Akers and her team until I get to come back in for my next cleaning. They take every precaution to ensure the office is safe during the pandemic, including wearing ALL the PPE and having the office thoroughly disinfected every night. If you have dental anxiety, want to be treated with consideration and compassion, and want your mouth to feel healthy again, please go see Dr. Akers and her team. You'll be glad you did.

Great staff. They make the most out of my visit to the dentist…read more When you first arrive, you are given a very friendly smile and a warm welcome by name. Most of my appointments are early, at 8, when they first open, so I don't have to wait long. They give me just enough time to grab a cup of coffee from the Kuerig. They have a full coffee bar with three different creamers, syrup to add, all in addition to a plentiful stock of K-Cups. If you do need to wait, they have a Wii in a little room with a flat screen tv. The receptionist is on top of insurance, and asks a couple questions verifying current address, phone number, etc. The dental hygienist took me to the chair after about five minutes of waiting. I told her I had a meeting at 8, and she said well let's gets you taken care of. She cleaned my teeth, talking me through everything she was about to do. She made pleasant conversation, as some dentists are better than others at a single sided conversation, then if I wanted to say something she would remove the tools and let me speak. Dr Katie Watson was out on maternity leave. Her replacement was a younger lady who examined everything, poked around a little bit, showed me some exposed areas where there might be a threat of sensitivity, let me know what they could do if it bothered me, and voila! All done in 35 minutes. I had a very pleasant experience, and this was my second visit here I highly recommend Stone Post Dental.

They have a comfortable and elegant waiting area (including a Keurig!) My hygienist is careful but thorough so I'm never in pain but get the maximum clean. She always provides little recommendations if I'd like an even better smile; which I appreciated. She recommended an electric toothbrush, which I purchased and saw great improvements. Now I've been more dedicated to my flossing, which she also suggested. Dr. Watson is so sweet. She always comes in for the final check. They are good about taking photos and x-rays when needed, but never suggest things you don't really need or shouldn't be worrying about. Always a wonderful experience!

My favorite part, (I know its a dentist), what I liked most was she was willing to say hey I'm not good at that let me send you to someone I know can and is really good. She made a call and got me in the same day with some one who could help me out of my pain. So even though its my first visit, and she didnt even get to work on me... she will be my family dentist. Her care made the difference... prepare yourself for the speech! In her 30 years, most of the decay she has seen is from pop, juice or sports drinks... save your teeth and stop drinking it now!!!!!
