What Parents Are Saying About us!

Maria

Dr. Parks is the best!! My daughter had some dental work that needed to be done and they needed to sedate her. I was very nervous about the whole process as I had never been in this situation. The front office, dental assistant, and anesthesiologist were all very kind and answered all my questions but Dr. Parks was the absolute best. He took the time to explain everything to me, answered all my questions, made my daughter feel very comfortable and made my husband and I feel calm and not worried about the procedure. He made everything very smooth. He cares alot about his patients and is great with kids. I am so happy he's my daughter’s dentist, this world needs more dentists like him.

Elissa

Dr. Brett Parks was not only wonderful with my son, but personable, professional, and thorough in his explanations to me as the parent. This was one of the best experiences I’ve had at a dental office. I highly recommend them!

Ashley

It was my 2 year old daughters first visit and Dr. Parks was patient and did a great job keeping her calm.The office was clean, new and appealing. My kids will continue to come here for all their dentist appointments.

Christina McCloud

Great experience from the moment we walked in. Dr.Brett was very informative and answered our questions. It's not easy taking in a large family appointment but I truly appreciate you all.
