Audubon Dental & Implant Center: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Another low stress, high quality visit. Great experience.
Negative experience: I took my father to get a toothfixed in a denture he had to pay cash for We have been there before this time they did some testing that didn't protan to what we wanted.these testing they didn't tell him that they were going to do so. So the vist was only to send denture out to get fixed and charged him for 3 diff test totaling 556.00 dont let them trick or manipulate that its protocol! It isn't!
Negative experience: They bait and switch you. My wife was told her final bill was 500.00. when we go in, they now say there's an additional 800.00 due. They said the 500 was for an old bill. What old bill and why wouldn't you say that when we called, asking you for the total bill, for everything.
Fantastic experience: Excellent care. No pain. I was stressed, but not because of them. Just remembered scary military dental services.
Negative experience: Everything too expensive.Nice Staff
Positive experience: This was not my first visit at Audubon Dental. Previously, I had enjoyed this place because it felt safe and I liked the hygienist and Dr. Steele. My past cleaning in December did not go as expected. It felt like I was being Nickel and Dimed for a treatment that was not necessarily 100% needed/required, as my case was not that serious. After I refused the expensive “specialty” cleaning, I was disappointed at the “cleaning” I received. I did not receive an actual polish of my teeth, but just a scraping and flossing. To have to shell out $45 post-insurance, I was not impressed. My experience really made me not want to come back. It felt like I was being sold these treatments for something that was not as serious. It made me feel like a dirty, unhygienic human. I was constantly being asked if I was okay, and if anything was going on. To be honest, I didn’t owe them a response even if there was something going on in my personal life.
Fantastic experience: Great dental office! The hygienist Abby is awesome, definitely the best cleaning I’ve ever had! Dr. Steele did a fantastic job giving me my smile back!
Fantastic experience: My first time at the office, everyone from receptionist, dental assistants, and the dentist are all pleasant, nice, explains everything in detail, shows you what needs to be done and asks for your input!!! So glad they are going to be my new family dentistry!!!!!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Steele and her entire staff do a great job at explaining what kind of treatments they recommend for you to obtain a beautiful smile, give you knowledge and compassionate feedback during each procedure. From cleanings to tooth extractions , to putting in implants Dr. Steele and her staff helped me by making sure I was comfortable and confident in being in the office for every appointment. I highly recommend Audubon Dental in Lexington, KY !!
Negative experience: Almost secretive about your final cost. A cancer screening that i didn't want cost me $85.00. Living in social security, it was unaffordable
Fantastic experience: Dr Steele and staff are AMAZING!! They have cared for me my husband and my father and friends. I very grateful. She gave me a 100000 smile.
Fantastic experience: I had a very short wait and was surprised when I was called to go to the back and get my implant professionally taken care of. I had needed someone to do it correctly and now I don't have to worry about it anymore! I would recommend Audubon Dental doing anything needed. Thanks so much
Fantastic experience: Friendly Courteous professional Staff Love the canine Woodford he is the calmest Doodle I have ever met.
Fantastic experience: Everything was awesome! It is a great place for anything Dental related!

Fantastic experience: From the time you walk in the door to the time you leave, everyone is friendly, courteous, compassionate, and professional.
Fantastic experience: Dr Baldau, Ms. De, Pamela, and Jenny were incredibly friendly, compassionate and helpful when I needed an urgent appointment and treatment . The whole process from scheduling appointments to the treatment went extremely smooth. They definitely have a wonderful staff and I thank you ever so much for your help and care.
Fantastic experience: Absolutely love Dr. Steele and the team. Woodford the support dog was especially comforting :-)
Fantastic experience: My visit went really well.
Fantastic experience: Great dentist office! Everyone is always so nice and knowledgeable!
Positive experience: The dental staff is phenomenal! However, the acting manager can be quite rude. I’ll never leave the practice unless I have to because the care you receive is amazing. They take time to explain everything they are doing and try their best to make things affordable. I do wish they would make their confirmation policy more known (since theirs is different than any place I have ever been to) and that the acting manager was more willing to solve issues instead of ignore them
Fantastic experience: The friendliest and most professional staff I’ve ever felt with. Definitely helped with my anxiety. Best place ever.
Fantastic experience: Everything about this place is amazing!! Thank you Dr. Steele, Brooklyn, Pamela, and everyone else who made my visit amazing. Forgot the name of the dental hygienist who did my cleaning last week but I appreciate y’all’s work and may God bless y’all always. Much love!!
Fantastic experience: They were awesome. Using my first set of dentures as the base, completely relining, replacing 16 teeth. Very professional and friendly.
Fantastic experience: For one, you can't be anymore professional than every one of the staff. Doctors are even better! They all had great smiles which stood out to me and so kind and personal!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Baldu and staff were wonderful. Hygienist was rude.
Fantastic experience: The staff was very friendly and helped with the scheduling of my next appointment. The doctors are top Knotch and worked with me to find a solution for my dental problem. I’ve been seeing them for over 11 years!
Fantastic experience: Warm, friendly, environment, with kind, professional, knowledgeable doctor and staff. Woodford, the sweetest dog, and best greeter in the world is a bonus! Highly recommend!
Negative experience: Apparently I am above their pay grade. I do have chronic periodontal disease and bone loss and have been maintaining between my periodontists and dentist and hygienist. I have my teeth cleaned every 3 months and this office has been helping me maintain for several years, but at this visit they could not clean my teeth because my X-rays showed more bone loss than the previous visit and even though my health has not changed and had no complaints from me. So I will move on.
Fantastic experience: Everyone was so kind and reassuring. They carefully and clearly explained everything I needed to do. Great place overall
Fantastic experience: Entire staff was respectful and kind. The dentist made the entire process comfortable and made it a point to make sure I was comfortable and pain free.
Fantastic experience: Very kind, helpful...explained things thoroughly..listened to all my inquiries. Will be using them again!
Fantastic experience: Everyone was very kind! Rooms were clean and comfortable. I also appreciated Woodford hanging out with me while I filled out paperwork in the lobby! Prices were very affordable.

Fantastic experience: Very efficient and reliable to me and helping me with a plan using my insurance, including the beginning of 2026!
Fantastic experience: Everyone at Audubon Dental & Implant Center was fantastic! From the friendly and professional office staff to my thorough and friendly hygienist, the experience was top-notch. Dr. Baldau took the time to explain everything clearly and made me feel completely at ease. Highly recommend!
Positive experience: They are fast at getting you back ans good but they take forever to get you your dentures so if ue in a hurry dont go to them.
Fantastic experience: I have been with Audubon for many years Kudos to this practice for hiring Dr. Steele. Dr.Steele has created a warm and inviting environment while providing great care to her patients! Thanks to her and the team!

Fantastic experience: They was great , nice and my teeth look real thank you so much
Fantastic experience: Everything was great! Dr. Steele was awesome! She set up my plan and got me to the people I needed to take care of my issues. I highly recommend her and her office staff is awesome as well!
Fantastic experience: Audubon staff is awesome. From major work to small adjustments, Dr. Steele and staff go above and beyond what's expected.
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend. Knowledgeable, friendly staff with a relaxing, clean environment. Love this place!
Fantastic experience: Staff is always friendly and helpful. Provide clear communication and make your visit as convenient and pleasant as possible. Highly recommended
Fantastic experience: TLDR: These women cater to cowards! My first experience with Audubon Dental was amazing. I am scared to death of having dental work done as I had a very traumatic experience a few years ago. The women here are rock stars! They were so gentle and patient with me. Especially Dee. She was so good at helping me calm down. I was there for an emergency tooth extraction. The tooth was broken at the gum line and was abscessed. I'd been in pain for weeks trying to put off a trip to a dentist. I let it get to the point that I couldn't even function because of the pain in my head, ear, and face. The procedure was successful and I am pain free today (the morning after surgery). I don't even need Tylenol! I highly recommend this place! I will definitely visit them again!
Fantastic experience: I saw Dr.Steele. She is pleasant and very honest. I very much appreciate her work to find solutions compatible with my fixed income budget.
Fantastic experience: Love the staff especially Ms. Dee!! She was very professional and ABSOLUTELY friendly! Dr. Steele is hands down the best as well!!!
Fantastic experience: Absolutely the best...Dr. Steele and her team are the best. Everyone in the office will go the extra mile, friendly, thoughtful staff ..
Fantastic experience: I have wanted to get my teeth fixed and I decided I would go with Invisalign now I’m beginning to get the smile that I always wanted. These people are great.
Fantastic experience: Very nice Ladies, The Dr was wonderful took time out talking to me. Alsome place
Fantastic experience: Warm and welcoming professional environment. Dr. Steele and her team are the best!
Fantastic experience: Exceptional service. Comforting, professional and very thorough. I’ve never felt more welcomed or under such good care at a dentist’s office before.
Fantastic experience: Everyone there was so nice and respectful. They took there time and walked through every step with me, If I needed a moment it was no problem. Such an amazing place and people.
Fantastic experience: I have experience, kindness , knowledge, understanding of my needs from the staff of the office as well as communication to the doctor. I appreciate going through the details of the out come of the end of my dental needs. They are great here
Negative experience: Not at all pleased with this unprofessional dentist office. I had already visited a different dentist and knew I needed an extraction. I chose this place because they accept my insurance and offered nitrous. I explained to them several times that I cannot do the bite wing x-rays due to my gag reflex being horrible. I have always gotten the panoramic one since I was a kid. I had to tell the dentist this again the day of my visit because of the lack of communication that goes on here. The day of my visit, the dentist literally looked at me and said, "You have to get the bite wing, and if you don't like it, you can leave." She was not compassionate or professional to her patients' needs. She was in charge and wasn't afraid to let me, a customer essentially, know it. Will not return or recommend to anyone.
Fantastic experience: Absolutely love the staff here, everyone is so warm and welcoming. Dr. Steele is amazing and my hygienist Jenny goes above and beyond with recommendations to help with my gum health. I highly recommend Audubon Dental for all your dental needs.
Fantastic experience: Great first visit at Audubon. The entire staff was incredibly friendly and made me feel right at home. Dr. Steele was super knowledgeable and caring. Would definitely recommend going here.
Positive experience: I had a good experience there and the staff was nice and Doctor Steele is very good at what she dose, I will be back.
Fantastic experience: All of the staff are very courteous and helpful. They take the best of care of me. Always very knowledgeable about my teeth
Fantastic experience: Jenny is phenomenal! She is meticulous & gentle with her care. Extremely knowledgeable, professional and friendly. She makes me feel super comfortable and customizes my needs. I highly recommend Jenny!
Fantastic experience: Bedside manners are awesome. Great staff to work with on every visit. Explanation of benefits are very thorough. Would highly recommend to anybody looking for a great Dentist.
Fantastic experience: Many years I have had issues with being taught improper oral hygiene. My great friend Jenny always takes fantastic care of me! She and her very friendly staff have changed the course of my teeth and gum health moving forward! Saving me a MANY stressful visits and expensive procedures if we had not taken action when we did. I will forever be an appreciate and loyal customer!
Fantastic experience: Let me begin by saying going to the dentist is not tops on my list of fun things to do. I had a bad experience some years ago that deterred me from getting proper dental care moving forward. So needless to say I was due a visit and I’m grateful Audubon got me in so quick. As soon as I walked in I noticed it was a very nice/comfortable environment. Staff was very welcoming and friendly. Erin was my hygienist for the day, she was great. She knew I was nervous and instantly began to help me with that by explaining what we were doing and by telling me I’m in good hands. Then it was time for Dr Hackett, who also knew how nervous I was. He was amazing. I had to have some root tips removed and didn’t feel a thing. He completely erased my fear of the dentist office in one visit. I’m so very grateful and look forward to going back to continue working on my smile. I highly recommend this practice for anyone.
Fantastic experience: When I Walk in the atmosphere fills fine. I would recommend you'll to my friends.
Fantastic experience: I went in thinking I was going to have all my upper teeth pulled,but the Dr and her assistant said they could save my teeth. Everybody in the office are extremely nice.
Negative experience: Don't take Aetna insurance, I had to walk from the hospital just to have my time wasted. At least the people were nice I guess...
Fantastic experience: Everyone is so friendly! I am usually uncomfortable and nervous at the dentist but they made me feel relaxed! I was so pleased with my implants! I will definitely recommend!!!
Fantastic experience: Knowlegable. Experienced. "Great chair-side manner". With Dr. Steele and every member of her team that I encountered. I felt included, everything was explained & I feel lucky that they could see me quickly (within a few days of intial contact).
Fantastic experience: Three words to describe Audubon Dental: professional, down-to-earth, and friendly. The staff is amazing and Dr. Steele is great. You can tell they love what they do by how they interact with patients. Very cool atmosphere and the music selection has a chill/easy going vibe to it. Overall, I do not mind going to the dentist when it's Audubon Dental.
Fantastic experience: I've been coming here for a few years and they always take really good care of me the staff is very friendly and helpful.
Negative experience: The worst set of dentures I've ever had. This dental office received $3000.00 of my insurance money. I'm unable to wear the dentures. Buyer be aware. The worst dental service I've ever had.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Steele is amazing. The whole staff treat's you like family. I have never had any issues with insurance or billing, appointments are always scheduled around my schedule. I will recommend Audubon to anyone.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Steele and staff are very professional. My questions are answered and any concerns I have about my procedures are explained in detail. I have been a patient of Audubon Dental for almost 14 years and wouldn’t think of going anywhere else. Bruce Fredrucks
Fantastic experience: Awesome experience! Very accommodating, professional, and pleasant staff. Dr. Steele is outstanding. She’s so good at what she does! She’s my favorite dentist ever! I would recommend her to anyone looking for a dentist.
Fantastic experience: I'm thankful for audubon dental. As a patient they made me comfortable and eased my anxiety simply ny speaking to me about what they were doing and what the next steps are. I hadn't been to a dentist in quite some time due to bad experiences but then I found audubon and I'll never leave there!
Fantastic experience: Having recently moved I was in need of a new dentist after having a dental problem develop. I chose Dr. Steele and had a bridge put in. Everyone is very nice and professional and I am very confident that I chose the right place and that they do excellent work!
Fantastic experience: I went to Audubon Dental and Implant Center with an emergency toothache yesterday. I called and they were able to get me in the same day and took care of me! I am so thankful that they make time for people who are in pain. They showed true compassion. Best of all, the cost was very reasonable, even being out of network for me!
Fantastic experience: I have always had the most severe dental anxiety. When I tell you this is the best office I have ever been to. They are so warm and welcoming, they want to do what they can to make you as calm as possible. They take time and give such attention to your concerns and your nerves. I have never been able to say that I am not scared to go back to a dental office. But I’m not dreading going back in the slightest! I would recommend this office to everyone, with emphasis on anyone with dental anxiety!
Fantastic experience: I was terrified to come to my dentist appointment today bc I’ve been traumatized. But Audubon entire staff made me so comfortable. Very professional highly recommended
Fantastic experience: I am so happy with Audubon. They are changing my life. Everyone is so helpful, considerate and gentle. They went above and beyond to help me when I needed it. They are proficient in what is needed and go over everything that is needed and work with you to get where you needed to go with your smile. Thank you Audubon so much
Fantastic experience: Tried another place for my tooth implant and cost was high and ran into some billing issues. Came back to Audubon and Dr. Steele and staff was so accommodating and willing to work with me to continue my tooth implant procedure. Very happy to be back.
Positive experience: Don't know if I could ever rate a dental practice with 5 stars, lol, but my hygienist Jenny is very cool.. Laid back, personable, communicated clearly, made me feel more comfortable than when I arrived. Def recommend!
Negative experience: See other 1 star reviews for the same thing below. Awful awful awful.. they try to force you into specialized cleanings that you have to pay for when I came in and ruined my whole day to get a normal cleaning. Not to mention the last two times they broke my permanent retainer and tried to make me pay for it… this place was great when dr hacket was here.. I was done last time after they broke my retainer but I gave them one more chance. They literally said I cannot get my cleaning done because I didn’t want to do an under the gum procedure. All they care about is getting the most money out of you possible.
Fantastic experience: I have been a patient at Audubon Dental for many years. I have always had excellent dental care here. Everyone has always been very nice to me. All my dental needs are always taken care of. Appointments are easy to get and the wait to be seen in the office has been short. I would recommend Audubon Dental to anyone.
Fantastic experience: Audubon Dental offers a fantastic dental experience. I am very pleased with my complex implant and veneer case they are working on! Dr. Steele and staff are top notch and I would recommend them to anyone!
Fantastic experience: Audubon provides qualified, professional, and courteous service. They got me in for a root canal the very next day, not 2 weeks later like another Endondontist to which I was referred. I’ll never go anywhere else for specialty dental work!
Negative experience: Not a good experience AT ALL! I have been in pain with a toothache for a week. I went to Audubon and the dentist said there is nothing wrong with my tooth and she sent me away in excruciating pain. I just went to another dentist for a second opinion and he immediately seen that I have an abscess and prescribed an antibiotic and a treatment plan.
Negative experience: After my visit this morning , I left this place feeling unhappy / defeated and because of this visit I probably will not go back to another dentist . The dentist was just really weird with a strange demeanor. She had a hard time speaking the English language and she struggled to explain herself. I went there hoping cosmetically they could fix the gap in my teeth with for example bonding, veneers , or lumineers as this is what they advertise they do. Instead , she offered Invisalign which is something I told them I did not want because I had already tried it. She acted like the gap in between my teeth was no big deal . I know my smile is not that bad compared to other people but, I just feel as though they did not want my business. There are lots of people who cosmetically want to fix their smile . I was not impressed with this place at all or the dentist . Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else.
Negative experience: I paid $23.000 for dentures with 2 implants. One implant came out a year later. They have new dentist now that don't do implants yet so I was referred to another dentist and will have to pay to have the implant replaced. I have to say everyone in the office is very friendly and kind, but I feel as if I shouldn't have to pay again for a failed implant that was so expensive.
Fantastic experience: Best place to go to for your dental needs! I’ve had problems with my gums for years. They were able to help me and give me so much relief. Friendly staff and a welcoming environment. 10/10 recommend!!!!!
Negative experience: I went to dentist with terrible pain in my jaw, rated my pain 10/10, tooth was split in two. Hurt like that for close to a month, dentist did not care for my pain nor if I had an infection. Very displeased with this place. They don't care for their patients. Go elsewhere. Wish I never wasted my time going here, caused me more suffering and money.
Fantastic experience: The professionalism and impeccable personal care my daughter and I received during our appointment, was JUST THAT professional and personal. Thank you Audubon Dental! I would definitely recommend them!
Fantastic experience: While traveling in the area, the tooth I broke a few months back decided that even breathing as going to hurt. I am typically terrified of the dentist so I put everything off until it's unmanageable anymore. I could no longer put this tooth pain off. I called and they were able to get me in for an appointment that afternoon. I am visibly anxious as soon as I walk into the waiting room. The dental assistant was literally the best I've ever seen. She kept making me laugh so much that I forgot where I was located. She took my x-rays and handed me off to the dentist to get the problem tooth pulled. They were willing to give me gas to calm me down and even allowed me to have my ear buds in to drown out the dentist noises during the procedure. If I lived in the area, I would make this my regular dentist based on this experience.
Fantastic experience: This is the third time I have visited the office. It’s very aesthetically pleasing and clean. All of the staff members make me feel welcome and relaxed about my visit. I have experienced little to no waiting time and my hygienist is always very thorough when cleaning my teeth. They have email and text reminders so you don’t have to worry about forgetting your appointments. I highly recommend Dr. Hackett and his staff!
Positive experience: I received a denture implant about 6 years ago. I’m very happy with my smile now and how well the staff treat me as a client. I have had some ups and downs with 2 implant failures. I had one replaced successfully. I need a bone graft to fix the other… But Dr Tackett continues to help me work through my issues, in a professional, caring manner.
Negative experience: So I just was at Audubon Dental today. We were talking procedures in the 15 to 20k range. They told me I needed another $250 x-ray, but it would be taken off the 15 to 20k procedure. So I went to have the x-ray. After I did the $250 (that was not necessary, but was told I needed) they presented me with one dental plan of 36K and one for 42K. No where were these amounts ever brought up. I fully believe they sold me a $250 add on knowing I would not agree to a procedure 2.5x the amounts which were discussed. Beware and get a firm quote before you do any business with these people. They will promise you one thing, get you to accept additional services, and then hit you with an estimate 2.5x what you talked about.
Fantastic experience: The staff was very courteous and professional. Dr Hackett did a great job of examining teeth and explained everything in detail. Great place to go for dental care.
