I recently visited Caloosa Dental and had an outstanding experience that deserves recognition! From the moment I walked in, the environment was welcoming, and the staff were incredibly friendly and attentive. The clinic was spotless and radiated a calm, professional atmosphere. A particular highlight of my visit was witnessing how well they treat veterans. As a veteran myself, I deeply appreciated the respect and tailored care provided to those who have served. The team at Caloosa Dental went above and beyond to ensure that all veterans receive the specialized attention and support they deserve.

Dr. Scheel and the entire staff were knowledgeable about the unique dental needs and benefits available to veterans, making the process seamless and stress-free. I wholeheartedly recommend Caloosa Dental for any dental needs, especially for fellow veterans seeking a dental office that genuinely cares.

Was informed 3 hrs was needed…..Dr did total removal, cleaning and replacement within 35 minutes. Removed a tiny screw you could hardly see $77 then replaced w/new one $150.00. Panoramic image $178.00 ; oral evaluation (did not mention the shadow in Xray of top implant) $77.00 $806 maintenance removal fees… hygienist reapplied “white” caps on normal skin color, that was unusual.

Staff is friendly. Facility is immaculate. Appointments are right on time. Dr Gear is confident, knowledgeable and honest. I have full confidence in him.

Had oral cancer and he discussed with my surgeon what would be the best for me. Im going with a metal plate to replace 2 teeth that were removed due to surgery. I’m not the greatest dental patient, but I feel comfortable and confident at Calossa Dental.

Had an implant anchor fall out which Dr.Scheel replaced in an emergency situation, since my regular dentist is out of state. My whole experience in this office was outstanding . The staff was supportive, efficient, quick, and Dr Scheel did an excellent repair.. I highly recommend anyone who needs dental care to contact this office.
