Dr. Lee truly saved my teeth. With over 25 years of experience, he clearly knows what he's…read moredoing--especially when it comes to bite alignment and long-term dental health. From the start, his focus was on what would benefit me in the long run, not just a quick fix. I had a root canal and two extractions on the same side. Initially, the plan was to do a bridge, but Dr. Lee went out of his way to save one of my teeth and recommended a better long-term solution. He even included a dental implant to set me up for the future, so when the root canal tooth eventually needs to come out, we'll be able to bridge both implants together. That level of foresight and care really meant a lot to me. His staff is also incredibly kind, welcoming, and professional, which made the entire experience much more comfortable. Dr. Lee genuinely has your best interest in mind, and I would recommend him to anyone looking for a dentist who truly cares about long-term results.

If you're looking for a beautiful, confident smile, Dr. Batesole is absolutely worth a visit. He's not only fun and easy to talk to, but also a true perfectionist -- exactly what you want in an orthodontist. The office uses state-of-the-art technology, making the entire process smooth, efficient, and surprisingly painless. Honestly, I almost wanted to keep this place a secret... but it's too good not to share. Enjoy!!

After years of hopping from one dentist to the other, I can finally say I have found my FOREVER…read moredentist! Sugar Family Dental is everything I have been looking for - the staff and dentist are super kind, welcoming, gentle and honest! My previous experiences at other offices involved being told that I had multiple cavities and needed expensive deep cleanings. But not here - Dr. Sugar assured me that my teeth were in great shape :) COVID protocols are followed here to a T. They encourage filling out the forms online or through a link sent through a text message, which cuts down on the time filling them out on paper in the office. Once you park, you call the office and come right up with no wait in the waiting room. Everyone is fully masked and gloved, and there is hand sanitizer right at the door. Each room also has its own air purifier machine. Mary was my dental hygienist. She has an incredibly sweet manner and I could tell she knows how to deal with dentist-anxious people, haha! I have a small mouth and active gag reflex so I dread getting X-rays taken, but she was so fast and efficient. What was also great was that they do the X-rays right in your room, so you're not coming in contact with others. You also see each X-ray pop up on a TV screen right in front of you, which I thought was cool. After that, she did an oral health screening (I know this since she talked me though each step!). She checked under my tongue, my throat and felt gently around the lymph node area of my neck. I've never had that done at a dentist office and really liked the extra step in checking! Then came the cleaning. She used a fancy scaler tool which shoots out a tiny stream of water (like a Water Pik) that she said gets into all the crevices of the teeth. She combined this with using the regular metal tools to scrape all the gunk off. My teeth definitely felt EXTRA clean! Oh I almost forgot - during the cleaning she put a pillow under my neck! Such a small step but it made me so much more comfortable. I almost fell asleep at times. Next, I was checked for gum recession (you know when they poke your gums and call out the numbers?). Mary was very thorough, checking multiple spots on each tooth along front and back. After that was the polishing and flossing. I love when they floss for you because I don't like flossing and that's why I have to be good about going to the dentist, lol. Then Dr. Sugar introduced herself (yes, that's really her name!) and checked my teeth again, went over my X-Rays and asked me of any concerns I had. I had already gotten the gentle reminder from the hygienist to floss more so I'm glad Dr. Sugar focused on my concerns (specifically, teeth whitening and the extra clenching I started doing during Covid). I didn't feel rushed or lectured to, which I have in prior offices. She has the kindest demeanor and assured me that me teeth and gums were looking healthy, WOOHOO. No upselling whatsoever! The last part, which I have never before experienced, was that I was offered a HOT TOWEL to clean up! It smelled like lavender and made me feel like I was a celebrity VIP :) THANK YOU Sugar Family Dental. Now I don't have to dread going to the dentist!

We all loved the other dentist there (Sharon Kim) and our teeth never hurt after her work. When the receptionist told us that Dr Kim left the practice, we wanted to leave as well. Speaking of which, a good portion of the staff left too and that changed the whole atmosphere. I also never understood why she hung someone else's dental diplomas and certificates on the wall but that's the practice's issue.

My experience with this dentist was the worst ever. I found him to be arrogant and disrespectful…read more He humiliated me in front of his staff by shrugging his shoulders after I asked him what could be done about the ill fitting bridge he placed in my mouth! When I explained I had been biting my tongue and my cheek, he told me "that's a soft tissue issue" and told me to go to a periodontist! From the minute he placed this bridge, I told him it was too big! It was uncomfortable and I felt like I had a wad of gum behind my front teeth, and it even flew out of my mouth at a Christmas party last year! I waited six months to see if it felt any better and when it did not, I went to another dentist for a consultation. He agreed the bridge did not fit well and even contacted Dr. Babbitt to see if he would refund my money so it could be done properly. Dr. Babbitt refused to give even a partial refund and believed his work was perfect. Now, almost one year later, I need a root canal on one of the abutment teeth because the bridge does not fit right and bacteria made its way inside. I have been in excruciating pain for two weeks now as I try to gather the money for a root canal and another bridge. Lastly, my roots were exposed and I noticed they were discolored. I was told by Dr. Babbitt this was caused by brushing too hard and that it was just discoloration. I was NEVER told that what was actually happening was that my roots were decaying due to dry mouth caused by daily use of Flonase! He even said that because you couldn't see my gums when I smile, it isn't something that needed to be fixed. Had he emphasized that my roots were decaying at an alarming rate and I would need to fix the problem sooner than later, I would have made that priority and NOT gotten the bridge that I really didn't need. Base your decision to see this dentist with whatever information you have, but beware that this could happen to you too, so choose wisely.

Now we can't renew our insurance until next enrollment and we are stuck paying heavily on services for our kids.
