Fantastic experience: This was my first time at Forum Dental and it was a wonderful experience. All the way from the receptionist to the hygienist and doctor, everyone was very friendly but professional. My hygienist was Carissa and I haven't had such a great hygienist in many years and I'm 75 years old. I will always request her if I possibly can. If anyone asks where to go for dental work, I will recommend Forum Dental.
Thank you for being part of our community.
Fantastic experience: Our first experience here was great! It was my 3 & 5 year olds first visit to the dentist and they worked hard to make sure they were comfy and supported. The really impressive piece was that we had an issue with our insurance and brought the wrong cards showing that they were covered (totally my fault) but the lady at the front desk worked so hard to help and called our insurance right then and there to get it resolved before we even left. It was SO appreciated!! True kindness and advocacy goes such a long ways!!
Thank you for helping us continue to grow and improve.
Fantastic experience: Everyone is so wonderful and caring ... made me feel special. I was so surprised to see how things have changed through the years. I would recommend everyone to go here.

Thank you so much for your kind feedback.
Positive experience: The staff and dentist were extremely nice and very helpful. I was treated very well. However the lab they use for bridge work is very low quality. I had asked not once but twice for certain instructions on the way I wanted them to look. Bridge work is very expensive. A person should have a say on what they want. The first bridge was straight across not much curve a large gap between the teeth where food would have stuck there. They had to sand and grind off and on for 2 hours just to get them to fit. I refused them and was very disappointed they also didn’t make the two front teeth longer than the eye teeth. Second time another 3 weeks wait. This time they were quite a bit darker and the eye teeth were longer than the front ones. I commented about a vampire. I was not pleased at all. They sanded down the eye teeth some and there was nothing they could do about the color. I was tired of dealing with all of it. So I have the bridge in. But not that happy about it and probably won’t be smiling as much now. As I said before the dentist and staff were excellent a 5 star rating.

Fantastic experience: Awesome Dental facility. The whole staff is in incredibly friendly, knowledgeable & efficient. You hardly ever have to wait. They don't seem to overbook, like some offices. And don't get me started about Carissa. She's absolutely Awesome. Fast, thorough, quite possibly the best hygienist I've ever had. I can't say enough good things her and everyone there.
Fantastic experience: Corissa is a blessing. I have been in Perio since 1981. I know what is involved. With countless DDS folks 1981~2026...Corissa is a God Send. She is at the level of my past Perio experts. But, not at a Perio office. Thanks. Keith Carr Lebanon, MO.

Fantastic experience: Dr & staff are very friendly and listen to you. They are very thorough and doesn't do unnecessary pricedures.
Fantastic experience: I needed a good cleaning. The hygienist took the time to get my teeth really clean and they feel great. I’m grateful for her patience and time.

Fantastic experience: I am not a fan of needing dental work but my appointment with Forum Dental on Dec. 3 in Lebanon, MO was exceptionally good. I I did not wait and all the staff were friendly and compassionate. The work was done efficiently and gently. I actually look forward to my future appointments here.
Fantastic experience: Carissa and Dr. Osborne are wonderful, kind, and compassionate. I’m not so easy to work with due to my gagging reflex and they were both very careful with that difficulty, as well as very understanding and sweet about making me feel welcome and my needs cared for.
Fantastic experience: Very competent. Sometimes you have to wait for an appointment, but it's worth the wait.
Fantastic experience: I had an excellent experience at my recent dental visit. My hygienist, Olga, was absolutely the best. She was incredibly pleasant, kind, and made sure I was comfortable throughout the entire appointment. She took her time with the cleaning and never made me feel like she was rushing to finish. It was truly the most thorough and gentle dental cleaning I’ve had in a very long time. I’m extremely happy with the care I received.
Positive experience: Appointment was moved from original date over a month later then originally date. Only issue with my appointment was it took the dentist over 20 minutes to arrive to perform her checks after the dental hygienist was done.
Fantastic experience: 5 stars, quick, did great work on teeth. Highly recommend Oga for teeth cleaning.
Fantastic experience: Zoe was very kind and worked quickly to help me.
Fantastic experience: Nice people. The dentist, Dr. Osborn is very pleasant and answered all my questions. The hygienist, Carrissa, was very gentle and helped my anxieties about being in the dental chair. Both women are rockstars.
Fantastic experience: I am so delighted at the work that I have received from Forum Dental. I had two fillings done side by side teeth. She built the teeth up to be better than ever. Like I have two new teeth. I’m so thankful for her work.
Fantastic experience: The staff is the very best from the time you check in until you check out. Everyone is very caring and friendly. My goal is to receive my smile back and everyone is working very hard to achieve that for me. Dr Osborn is very nice and gentle. Carissa is great at calming your nerves. Sarah is kind and makes sure everything is perfect. Liz and Natalie greet you with kindness and always willing to help with scheduling and insurance. I have been treated in this office many times and have never had a bad experience. Highly recommended. Thank you to Forum Dental Staff for making a terrifying situation tolerable. Sharon
Negative experience: Love the place! Staff is great, experience is always good. Totally recommend you calling makjng an appointment! Edited: 2025. Dr osborn extracted a tooth for an implant and had me pay $800 cash for a bone graph. Then sent me to springfield, oms for the implant. They said i wasn’t a good candidate for an implant at that location and acted super surprised to find out my dentist had already done the in unnecessary procedure. Told me to go get a bridge! Thanks Dr. Osborn, guess your like all the rest. Ill never be back, dont trust you and I’ve already started to tell my story to anyone that asks. Awful experience.
Fantastic experience: Very sweet and patient her name was Zoey don't the other 1
Fantastic experience: Great experience. The office is very efficient and runs smoothly from the time I checked in to the time I left the clinic.

Fantastic experience: Had a tooth issue with pain, appointments were booked out for over a month but they were able to "fit me in" that same day. All staff were super nice and kind!
Fantastic experience: Carissa was very professional and friendly. She was very thorough and checked what insurance would cover and my out of pocket expense. Both Carissa and the insurance lady were nice to work with on how to proceed.
Fantastic experience: That was the absolute best dental experience I'd ever had in my life. With all the new technology and all it was much gentler. The people were all very kind and considerate. I'm actually going to enjoy the work being done. Thank you. I have always feared dentists.
Fantastic experience: The visit was very good. Had to reschedule at last minute, were able to get me new appointment in less than one week.

Negative experience: My family and I have had negative experiences here. I am disappointed in the customer service experience. I am sorry to say that I would not recommend Forum Dental.

Fantastic experience: I switched to Forum Dental after a less than stellar experience with another local dentist. Forum has been fabulous. Really nice front office staff, exceptionally clean offices and work areas, upfront cost details and the sweetest dentist and staff I've had the pleasure to be taken care of by. Glad to have found them.
Negative experience: Appt. was 7/3/25 .. had the yearly cleaning done, unfortunately there was two cavities found .. OK let's fix them .. uh .. was told next appointment available .. was .. " May 2026 " yes I asked to repeat it because I thought I heard it wrong .. Come on .. be better than that. Right !!
Positive experience: I have received excellent customer service from Front Desk staff, Dentist & my Hygienist, Ashley are terrific in providing services, information & insight into better oral care. Obviously others must also agree, as appointment scheduling can be somewhat challenging.
Fantastic experience: Very professional I never have waited more than 5 mins after my appointment time...Dr osbornw will not let you leave unless you are happy and satisfied with her work. They gave me my smile back thank you
Fantastic experience: They were really kind and explained everything so that you know what is going to happen. Takes awhile to get appointments, but worth the wait.
Fantastic experience: Appointments are really booked out so it takes a while to get in but the staff are so worth the wait. Super nice, fun environment. Explains things to where you understand what’s being done. Polite and care about their clients. I will continue to use this dentistry
Fantastic experience: Very professional, knowledgeable, and polite. Made the experience very comfortable.
Fantastic experience: Very professional, and friendly. Highly recommended but make your appointment early. There is only one dentist so it may take a while to get I.
Fantastic experience: Had teeth cleaning done and Doc checked teeth have never been this comfortable going to the Dentist go every 6 months for teeth cleaning they are so Palit and very helpful staff and Dentists would highly recommend
Fantastic experience: The office staff is helpful and courteous. My dentist Vashti Osborn is spectacular. The dental hygienist that gave my anesthesia shot was perfect. Always good appointments and even when I forgot my earrings at one appointment they still had them 3 months later. I hope they always take my dental insurance as I do not want to find another office.
