Just had an appointment with Dr. Osmun to have a cavity filled and crown made. As always, Dr. Osmun did a fine job. This time he had as assistant, Mario, to aid him in my procedures. Mario was very professional and seemed to be the Ying to Dr. Osmun's Yang. Mario knew what he was doing and really was johnny-on-the-spot in its' execution. Good work Mario.....Oh, and you to Dr. O.

This staff is incrediably gentle and welcoming. Like many folks, I was traumatized by my childhood dentist. While I will admit to be almost panicked every time I go to the Dentist, this staff and especially Dr. Munoz and the technician who helped me last night are amazing. So gentle and patient. Thank you folks. When I lost the temporary crown this AM and called, they told me to come right in and within 15 they had me in the chair, within 30 min total time, I was on my way again. Many, Many grateful thanks Ann

I'm surprised to be able to say that I had a great experience getting a root canal and crown. I expected to experience a lot of pain since that what we always hear, so I was really nervous about it. My Dentist and her assistant were very patient and reassuring with me and made sure I didn't experience any pain. They're my new Dentist from now on.

We can't compliment Gentle Dental enough. I've never enjoyed dental appointments, but now actually look forward to visiting Laura every three months because of the excellent, gentle, and attentive care I receive. Both my spouse and I have always come away greatly pleased with the care we receive; and our dental health has improved by leaps and bounds. We would recommend Gentle Dental to anyone who truly values his/her smile and overall health. Remember: the first step to excellent overall health is maintaining excellent overall dental health. Gentle Dental is the best...hands down.

I just loved Dr. Osmun he was so gentle and careful that I was not experiencing any pain during my tooth extraction. The "assistants" were awesome, making you feel comfortable, reassuring and welcome. Most of the office personnel were very pleasant. There were problems with one of the employees with her attitude and explanation with the financial information. The most important part of the visit was the dentist so I had to rate it 5 star!

I have never had any issues with Gentle Dental. The staff is sweet and caring and Dr. Osmun is really great! I was so impressed with their service that I made my son an appointment. Dr. Osmun was really good with him too; did some magic tricks to put him at ease. Unfortunately, my insurance no longer covers and I have to find a new dentist. When I requested my credit (I paid in advance and overpaid), they said it would take 4-6 weeks. It did take a week longer but they were really understanding when I called to inquire about it and the office manager always called me back. I would say that this has been the best dentist's office I've been to in a very long time.
