I'm floored this place isn't blowing up with good reviews!!!…read more Dr Ford and his staff are one of a kind! The first time I took my daughter to the dentist, I made the mistake of letting them pull a tooth out on her first visit (not at this office, a different dentist). Ever since then it was like pulling teeth to have her go.. no pun intended! A friend recommended Dr. Ford and he was incredible. They had me bring her in so she could get familiar with the place before her actual cleaning which was great! It didn't take away from being traumatized, but his staff was incredibly patient with my screaming, crying child when I wanted to rip my hair out. We didn't get very far when she wouldn't open her mouth and had to go to the Eugene surgery center to put her out for extensive work. I really appreciated he got all the work done in one shot instead of having me make several trips. After that was said and done, it still took several visits before my daughter would go willingly, but they were so kind every time we were there. Their office is incredibly kid friendly and they found a way to get my kids dental work done when several other dentists refused to see her. Unfortunately, my insurance changed and they are no longer covered, or we would be lifers there .. or at least until she starts seeing an adult dentist. They really are great!

My six-year-old son was counting down the days until he could go see Dr. Estep this past week. (And he knew he was going in for a root canal and tooth extraction, mind you!). He was treated so well, it put him at ease, which of course put me at ease! The staff was gentle, informative, quick yet thorough and most importantly had that special touch that you need to have when working with kiddos. You can tell they love their patients. Can't say enough about how grateful we are for Dr. Estep and her staff! HIGHLY recommend!! If I could give 10 stars I would!!

From an early age, I found myself with an insatiable appetite for fillings. Today I am full blown…read moreconnoisseur. To my credit, I practice great hygiene, to my detriment, the genetic composition of my teeth leaves much to be desired. From this vast pool of experience in dental treatment, I have never felt obligated to leave a review. However, my recent appointment with Dr. Smart has motivated me, for the first time, to share my experience. Getting a filling (and in my case, 3 fillings) always seems to require cold back sweat, sticky leather chairs and the smell of the filling-resin drying under a harsh purple curing light. I cannot leave out the Novocain shot of course. Nothing prompts the breakout of a cold sweat like the anticipation of a novocain shot. This experience as a whole conspires to leave dentists feeling helpless in reversing the hint of dread afflicting most every patient facing an upcoming filling appointment. Alleviating the pain and anxiety of having your teeth drilled into will ultimately require new drugs and techniques that technology may well eventually solve. However, I do not see a relaxed filling coming anytime soon. In the meantime, I recommend Dr. Smart! He did not physically hold my hand during the procedure, but he is a great communicator and spent much of the time explaining to me the particulars of the procedure. Why was this immensely helpful? Well, rather than kidding myself that the images of Hawaii's Big Island could distract me from drilling, I found that actively thinking about the procedure was extremely helpful. By listening to Dr. Smart's description of the events unfolding I viewed the experience from the role of the dentist rather than that of the patient. In so doing, I found little reason to complain about receiving three fillings. At the end of the appointment, I was still numb obviously, but I was happy because the price tag was affordable, the service careful and attentive and I found that Dr. Smart truly cares about your experience. I cannot say this about every dentist.
