Fantastic experience: Fortner Dentistry is an exceptional dental office. The front desk team, hygienists, and support staff are all welcoming and professional. Dr. Fortner is outstanding—easy-going, relatable, and genuinely caring. There’s never any pressure or upselling for unnecessary procedures. In the past, even with insurance, I often paid extra out-of-pocket at other offices. At Fortner Dentistry, I can check out with confidence, knowing there won’t be unexpected charges.Exceptional and highly-recommended.

Fantastic experience: We have been looking for a good dentist and I can say we have found him. Dr Fortner and his staff are awesome. I would recommend him to my friends and family.
Fantastic experience: I was very nervous about finding a good dentist in Lubbock, a straight shooter, not an up-seller...I was relieved when a co-worker told me how wonderful they were, and he was right! The hygienist Talea was so kind, reassuring and gentle, and then Dr Fortner walked in and he was delightful and friendly! I highly recommend!!

Fantastic experience: Dr. Jay and Staff are the Best! Everyone is always nice, engaged and make you feel special as a customer. Always a positive and friendly atmosphere and very professional, keep up the great work!
Fantastic experience: Super friendly staff, quick and easy!!! Another dentist was prepared to do work and after coming here, a little glue and my crown was back in place. No charge!!! Would 100% recommend giving them a try!!!
Fantastic experience: The Best in Lubbock. I've been to several dentists in the past & Fortner is definitely the best in my opinion.
Fantastic experience: People often ask on FB for recommendations of "who's a good this or that?" I rarely chime in. For THESE guys I will. You want to know who a great dentist is? What are the standard requirements for a good dentist: Little to no Pain? Check. Respectful of my time? Absolutely, Check. Both in the waiting room (if I even need to wait) and in the dental chair. One who doesn't recommend MORE than is necessary? Ditto, that. Does he do beautiful work? YES! Just as low-key and easy an office as you'll ever find. And one more thing. The best cheer-leading hygienist you'll ever meet. KF
Fantastic experience: Dr Fortner was so great to see me as I had an ER and my dentist was out of town. Everybody was so friendly and helpful. Dr Fortner and the assistant were amazing. I would definitely recommend them!

Fantastic experience: Dental Hygienist was very friendly and knowledgeable. Everyone from Dr Fortner to the front desk ladies are awesome.
Fantastic experience: Totally recommend this place. I am pretty phobic about getting dental work done -- both from financial and physical perspectives -- but I was at ease the whole time there. Very informative and transparent when dealing with insurance and fees. Pain-free, no-fear procedure for a deep cleaning and scaling. Wouldn't hesitate to go back. Did I mention that I used to *hate* going to the dentist? Everyone I interacted with there was great, especially the lady who cleaned my teeth (Tamera, I think). Addition July 3, 2025: Got my teeth cleaned by Martha and she was great. I had coffee stains between my bottom front teeth that had been there for decades. I had my teeth cleaned and scaled dozens of times in that time and those stains never came off. I thought they were permanent. Them Martha scaled and polished my teeth and now they're gone. Wish I could give six stars.
Fantastic experience: Always friendly, professional, affordable service.I have been his patient since he open his practice in Lubbock.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Fortner has taken care of our family for years - my sons and I haven't been to another dentist since we moved to Lubbock almost two decades ago. His receptionists and hygienists are always very friendly and professional, and the level of care we've received from Dr. Fortner himself has always been excellent. He always takes time to talk with me about my own or my boys' dental health, and I never feel like a number as I have with some previous dentists. I recommend him highly for anyone living in Lubbock, especially families with children.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Fortner is the only dentist in Lubbock who is 100% honest. I have had many other dentists tell me I needed tens of thousands of dollars worth of work done and Dr. Fortner was honest with me and I have had none of it done. His staff is friendly.
