We believe in providing each patient with a unique experience that best suits their individual needs. Our team will ask you to complete a form that helps us prepare to fit in the patient’s theoretical box and ensure they never feel confined to one that isn’t the right fit.

"That’s Never Happened Before"

 

A phrase we commonly hear in our office is, “That’s never happened before.” That’s because we go above and beyond to develop an individualized treatment plan for each patient, while striving to create a welcoming, comfortable environment. This helps patients enjoy a successful visit while helping to make proper oral health achievable between office visits.

Our son has serious dentist trauma and we were very worried going into his appointment on how things were going to go. Evelyn and Dr. Hodge were amazing with our kiddo. They took all his sensory needs and anxiety into consideration. Thank you for being so amazing.

I have been trying to find the right dentist for my son for so long and I finally found dentists that I feel were kind and patient and able to handle a child on the spectrum. Evelyn and Dr Hodge were absolutely amazing! Thank You!
