Then we went to Bauer and Bauer, and they worked their magic on him. He eagerly gets in the chair, he is compliant and hasn't had anxiety about any of the work done on him thus far. The staff all know us by name. They are excellent communicators and answer all of my questions. If you or your loved-one has any trauma associated with dentistry or orthodontics, this is the place to go. They will work their magic on you, too!

Dr Joy (Carlson Dental)…read more I don't even know where to start. I came in last week with a cracked tooth -- face swollen, in serious pain, and honestly a little panicked. Dr. Joy and his staff got me in right away, no runaround, no waiting, even though it was an extremely busy day. Dr. Joy was incredible. He put together a thorough treatment plan, made sure I was comfortable and pain-free throughout the entire process, and handled absolutely everything. I couldn't have asked for better care. Five stars also to his assistant Anna who was so caring and reassuring. If you're looking for a dentist, someone who truly cares about patient comfort and quality dental care, I strongly recommend Dr. Joy. Laurie R.

I originally wrote the first post on Yelp for this office, walking out of there believing that I…read morehad been taken the most care of. Fast forward two years later, only to find out that the root canal I had performed was not done correctly. After seeing an endontist and two other specialists, I was informed that the post was put THROUGH my tooth and was sticking into my jaw. (please see the photo of the xray taken) As of yesterday, 11/12/2014, the tooth was removed, and a bone graft was put in place. What should have been a simple procedure is now going to cost nearly $5500. As I sat there yesterday, looking at the tooth with the hole right through it, it saddened me to know that I walked away from there and was not informed of the mistake the day that it occurred. I can only hope that other patients take great caution with their trust.

I know when she's nervous, and I know she's got that "white coat syndrome" that so many kids (and adults) face. When we arrived at Wheaton Prarie Dental, I could almost HEAR her heart beating faster. So I made sure to act calm and collected as we approached the front door. Once her name was called, I was surprised she didn't run out the door right then and there. But Lindsey, the hygienist, greeted her with a smile and made sure she was comfortable in The Chair. And that's when I knew my kid wasn't scared anymore. She was definitely relaxed, and this was WITHOUT the gas mask! After Lindsey did the routine xray and whatnot, we met Dr Colella. He, too, greeted her with a smile and had a good talk with her. He acted as if he was just a friend who she hadn't seen in a while. He explained that he was just going to check and make sure everything was going well and even got excited when discovering there was a FIRST LOOSE TOOTH present! At the end of the exam, he gave us a bag full of goodies which of course any kid would love. The staff here is great and despite it being on a relatively busy street, the location is great. Parking is easy and there's a lot to do to pass time if you've got to wait a while for your significant other or kid during a long visit. Our routine visit, however, was quick - something I appreciate as a busy mom. Overall I'm happy to have found a dentist/dental office that I can trust, and one that my kids will trust as well. We all know dental visits are scary. This place isn't scary. =)

It's difficult to find a good dentist and after trying out a different one that was a bit closer, I…read morerealized this dentist is completely worth the distance and I hope I can keep coming back here. I started coming here maybe 10 years ago when Dr. Francis was the dentist and him and his dental hygienists were all amazing. Now, Dr Evans is the dentist here and he is just as great and so are all his hygienists. I love his treatment philosophies. He really tries to minimize pain for the patients and doesn't ever pressure you into doing anything and explains everything to you. He's also a very friendly and funny guy. I appreciate that he never makes a big deal over tiny cavities either and doesn't scare you into treating it right away. It seems like he prioritizes just keeping a watch on small cavities, but if he does recommend a filling, they use a form of laser treatment instead of drilling here. I've never had a laser cavity treatment but it sounds way better than the drilling and numbing that other dentists use. I feel a lot more comfortable and open to coming back to get them filled now. All the hygienists I've had here have all been very gentle, respectful, friendly, and always make me feel comfortable. They do not scrape too hard, they compliment my teeth, and I really appreciate that they do not talk to me or ask questions during the cleanings. I'm a shy person and I think they pick up on that lol. The cleaning I had recently only took about 20-30 minutes too.
