I had a great experience visiting this Dental office for the first time Yesterday. Extremely nice staff at the front desk. I really like the woman who did our X-rays . Very knowledgeable doctor & hygienist. They gave me great referrals for my siblings and did a great job cleaning my teeth. I’ll be back again. Thank You !

LES Dental provided top tier service from the lovely ladies @ reception to the Dentists & Dental Staff. The only thing I would like 2 emphasize is 2b a little be more conscientious of how you handle the dental tools bcuz the tool left an impression on my cheek & a red mark🙃.

I love this practice. Everyone is so nice and helpful. I never have a long wait time and the hygienists are always kind and gentle. This practice is so much better than those new fancy ones that are a chain. Can’t recommend them enough!

The place doesn't look like much, but I read reviews around, and it's an honest place. I mean, they don't trick you into buying treatment you don't actually need. My dentist is Dr. Carlina Damanou (not sure of the spelling). She is a human perfectionist and laughs at my jokes. She is highly respected by her helpers. She changed three aging crowns for me. I am a middle-aged man; it was painless, perfectly fitted, and I can consciously smile wider because it looks so natural. I looked for an honest artist, healer, and dentist for 10 years. She is my only now, and trust me, I am never settling for less than the best. I used to fly to Bangkok just for my teeth 🦷.

2/3/2025 TLDR Please do not come here. They are unhygienic, provide poor care, and have morally questionable dental practices. They will try to scam you by lying to you about your health to upsell you treatments that you don’t need. I came here for the first time last week to get my annual dental cleaning and left feeling like more harm was done to my teeth than good. Firstly, their new patient intake form REQUIRES you to submit your social security before getting treated. Do not give them your social, an office shouldn’t need it if they have your insurance card info. The cleaning itself was subpar — the hygienist had no bedside manner and took 10 minutes for the entire cleaning. She was very rough and splashed water all over my face and cut part of my gums. I left the cleaning that night with my gums bleeding. After the cleaning she proceeded to tell me that I had a gum infection and needed to be treated immediately with a gel antibiotic (clindamycin) which would cost $500 out of pocket because it was not covered by insurance. I immediately researched it and saw it typically is covered so I declined the treatment. I got a second opinion from a dentist that looked at my x rays from that day and confirmed that she LIED and I do not have an infection.
