Everyone in the office was so kind and compassionate. My adult son was assaulted leaving one of his front teeth barely hanging on. They got us an appointment immediately and took him right back. Very available after that for emergency calls and needs.

Saw him multiple days to insure he was recovering well. Dr . Clayton Myers did an excellent job and highly recommend this office for all of your dental needs. Both doctors are very committed to helping their patients and the office staff is wonderful!

What can I say? Wow. The staff were so welcoming as I came in as a new patient. Not once I felt judged. That was an issue for me for a long time. It felt like I actually knew the staff for years the way they smiled and talked to me. Preparation was QUICK. I met Dr.

J and he was very informative and respectful. He made sure I was comfortable before the extractions that I was getting done. A few moments of poking the teeth that were getting extracted (2), he asked "Mr. Are you about ready to get started?" I shook my head, yes sir. He looked at me with no hesitation and said "We're done!" I was so baffled and confused. It literally was just maybe 2 mins. If that.

I looked back at the wonderful Assistant and she shown me the 2 teeth that literally had me on my knees. I was so in awe. Just the procedure and the courtesy. I highly, highly recommend Dr J and his amazing staff to help you or anyone with dental needs. I can assure you that you will be taken care of! And the price of the procedure was very affordable. If you have any dental needs, go see Dr. J and his staff! They are wonderful!

The best dental care that I’ve experienced. Dr. Wills is thorough and very knowledgeable. He has boosted my confidence with no pain and a big bright white smile whereas now I love showing my teeth.
