Door Creek Dental 6420 is a hidden gem—where top-notch dental care meets small-town warmth. My family switched here last year, and we’re so glad we did. The office has a cozy, welcoming feel with door creek-themed decor that ties into the local area, making it feel personal. Dr. Schmidt is thorough and patient, explaining my son’s braces options with clear visuals and taking time to answer my endless questions.

The hygienists are gentle but detailed, and they even taught my 6-year-old a fun brushing song to make daily care easier. They offer flexible hours, including Saturdays, which fit our busy schedule. When I had a sudden toothache, they squeezed me in same-day. A practice that treats you like family—we won’t be going anywhere else.

My family and I have been going to Door Creek Dental since we moved here 18 years ago. We have always received excellent care. The staff and dentists are always friendly, especially Janae. I especially appreciated that Janae didn't ask questions when my mouth was full of "stuff"!

I've been going to Door Creek Dental for many years. They are always providing a pleasant experience for me and are always very friendly. They were especially wonderful when my crown came off suddenly and they were able to get me in to fix it in less than an hour. It was a great relief. Thanks Door Creek Dental!

I have been going to Door Creek Dental since I moved here 8 years ago. I have always received excellent care. The staff and dentists are always friendly. I was sad to see Mary retire but her replacement is just as efficient and friendly.
