Here at Daniel S. Nam DDS & Associates, our mission is to support and develop a lifetime of oral health by treating and educating our patients and community.

​​​At Daniel S. Nam DDS & Associates, we offer modern, comprehensive dental care in a warm, welcoming environment where everyone is valued and respected. From routine check-ups to advanced cosmetic and restorative treatments, our experienced team uses cutting-edge technology to deliver personalized care tailored to your needs.

We know dental visits can be stressful, so we focus on your comfort with thoughtful touches like our Wallaby Care Therapeutic Hug Blanket for calming, deep-pressure support, and ethically-sourced LXMI Lip Balm to keep your lips nourished. Your well-being is our priority, and we're dedicated to making every visit as relaxing as possible.

We’re proud to serve a diverse community and offer care in multiple languages to make every patient feel at home. Our team speaks Cantonese, English, Korean, Mien, and Spanish, so you can communicate comfortably and confidently during your visit.

In addition to his private practice, Dr. Nam is a staff dentist at Alta Bates Medical Center, working with the Emergency Department, ICU, oncology, and rehabilitation departments at both the Summit and Ashby campuses. He also serves as a clinical faculty member at the University of the Pacific School of Dentistry, where he teaches on Monday evenings.

Dr. Nam is passionate about alleviating dental pain, trauma, and anxiety, always striving to provide compassionate care. A devoted UCLA sports fan, he enjoys playing tennis, golf, and piano in his free time.

Dr. Jennifer Hom earned her B.S. in Microbial Biology from UC Berkeley before completing her Doctorate of Dental Medicine at Temple University in Philadelphia, PA, in 2014. She then pursued a General Practice Residency at Community Regional Medical Center in Fresno, CA.

During her residency, Dr. Hom discovered her passion for community health and spent six years serving at a community health center in Fresno. In 2021, she relocated to the Bay Area, where she embraced the opportunity to provide compassionate, high-quality dental care at Just Health 510.

Dr. Christine Nguyen was born and raised in the Bay Area and earned her B.S. from UC Berkeley before receiving her D.D.S. from the University of the Pacific, Arthur A. Dugoni School of Dentistry. She completed a general practice residency at the VA Dental Clinic in Sacramento and continues to stay up to date with advancements in dentistry through ongoing education. Dr. Nguyen also speaks Vietnamese.

Dr. Nguyen first worked alongside Dr. Daniel Nam at the Berkeley Free Clinic while attending UC Berkeley, and later joined his private practice as a dental assistant before beginning dental school. She has also volunteered with Dr. Nam at California CareForce clinics, providing care to underserved communities across the state.

Known for her gentle touch and commitment to patient comfort, Dr. Nguyen strives to deliver personalized, high-quality care. Outside the office, she enjoys spending time with her family and dog, playing sports, trying new recipes, and participating in local community service events.

Explore our comprehensive range of dental services designed to elevate oral health and overall well-being. From advanced diagnostics to personalized treatment plans, we are dedicated to enhancing smiles and promoting long-term oral health.

We recommend biannual exams and cleanings to maintain oral health and catch issues early. Some may need more frequent visits to prevent and manage gum disease. New patient visits include a full exam, cleaning, x-rays, and treatment planning—usually in about an hour.

Dental implants are a lasting, reliable way to replace missing teeth. Surgically placed roots support custom crowns that look and feel natural. As the gold standard for tooth replacement, they restore both function and appearance.

Invisalign clear aligners are a discreet, comfortable, and effective way to straighten teeth. They’re removable, affordable, and great for all ages. If you want to improve your smile or confidence, Invisalign is a convenient, nearly invisible alternative to braces.

We offer two advanced whitening systems. ZOOM! Whitening requires one two-hour visit to our office and can whiten teeth up to eight shades. Opalescence Go Teeth Whitening is available in prefilled whitening trays to be done in the comfort of your own home.

We offer both full and partial dentures to our patients. We work closely with several denture labs to create dentures that look natural and fit comfortably. Dentures can also be stabilized with implants at our office.

 We're proud to be in-network with Delta Dental Premier, Cigna PPO, and Aetna PPO. Most non-HMO or Denti-Cal plans let you choose your dentist, but out-of-network visits may affect coverage. We’re happy to verify your benefits or you can contact your provider directly. 

For patients without insurance, we offer Healthy Smiles, an affordable in-house membership plan. For a low annual fee, you'll receive two free checkups each year, along with exclusive discounts on all other treatments. It's an easy way to keep your oral health on track while saving money.

Daniel Nam, DDS & Associates: Reviews

4.8/5 (199 Reviews)
Reina Lam Published on Google 3 weeks ago

Fantastic experience: Honestly love this entire team. Every single person I met at this office was kind and patient. All of the dentists are incredibly efficient, skilled, and caring. The hygienists are gentle, intuitive, and answered all my questions about dental care and health. They are upfront about costs, and affordable without dental insurance. A+++++ ! EDIT: Coming back in 2024 to fully enforce the same review I left six years ago. This dental office continues to be the most friendly, efficient, communicative, educational, patient, and caring dentist experiences I’ve ever had! I feel very safe with everyone I meet there, and they answer all my worry-wart questions with clear explanations that I can understand. Love coming here! And that’s a weird thing to say about going to the dentist! EDIT: Coming back again in 2026 to once again confirm that this is the best dental office I’ve been to. The added new staff is great! I get a good laugh when I’m there, and am surprised by how efficient but thorough they are with xrays, cleaning, and polish. I always leave pain free and feeling confident in my dental health. Attaching a photo of getting a full panoramic xray of my jaw and teeth!

Fantastic experience: I feel like I’m in a professional setting. The entire staff makes you feel welcome and comfortable. That’s not easy for me, nonetheless I’m in highly capable hands with Dr.Nam.

Mniska Lamb Published on Google 1 month ago

Fantastic experience: I’m a brand new patient and although it took what seemed like a long time out to get an initial appointment, it was worth the wait. Everyone was really professional and personable; although the office has a “tight” spaced feel I found myself rounding it up to “cozy” and close quarters doesn’t seem to slow the staff down one bit. I’m looking forward to my next visit * Multiple great visits later: 5/27/26 Just got back from a cleaning. I love this office. I’m a lifer and let’s get that straight. That said things felt a little rush this morning and potentially understaffed by Doctors. I Had DR Nam and in his chair the rush was Palpable and at times I felt a bit like a bass fish caught by the lip. It’s just on his feedback and I won’t change my Star rating because of it

Fantastic experience: A great dental office is so hard to come by. I’m so happy to have found Dr Nam and team though! I feel well taken care of here

Manny S Published on Google 1 month ago

Fantastic experience: I had my first visit with the office and have nothing but positive things to say. The staff are very friendly and efficient and the office is clean and well organized. Dr. Christine is AMAZING! I'm horribly afraid of the dentist and mouth pain but she is fantastic.. totally put me at ease, is very gentle and even had me laughing throughout the visit. I will definitely continue going and strongly recommend Dr. Christine for those patients that have anxiety towards the dentist.

Alex Fox Published on Google 1 month ago

Fantastic experience: They are on time, efficient, great, take great caver teeth, very nice, what more could you want. The Best! Wait, maybe I shouldn’t say anything or else I’ll get too popular and I’ll never get an appointment again… Nah… they deserve it They’re the best

Suzanne Waters Published on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: Dr. Amy Blake is literally an artist in dentistry. She fixed 2 ongoing problems that were creating daily misery. She is creative in her solutions and dedicated to her patients care with the highest standard. You will not find better dentists or nicer people then Dr. Blake and Dr. Nam. Finding a good dentist you trust is like finding a good mechanic. It’s not easy! I tell everyone who will listen about Dr. Nam’s office and have been a client for 9 years. His staff is knowledgeable, detail oriented, professional and kind. He also donates his time to helping people who can’t afford dentistry and I want to support a business like that. The prices are great and they work with you on higher priced procedures. I moved to Santa Cruz and happily drive up to see them. I wish 10 stars was an option!

Fantastic experience: I just had my check-up and dental cleaning. It was such an incredible experience that I felt compelled to write a review. The entire office staff is so kind and competent. Dr. Nguyen was incredibly present during my exam, answering all my questions and taking the time to ensure that my teeth were thoroughly cleaned. Eddie made me feel at ease and made me feel so comfortable. I get nervous with dental stuff, BUT Eddie & Dr. Nguyen made this feel like a spa day for my teeth :) Thank you so much!

Chris Coopey Published on Google 3 months ago

Fantastic experience: The dentist are amazing and very easy to work with. Matter of fact today, I needed to see someone urgently. Not only were they able to get me an appointment and I was able to see them within the next 12 hours. Now, that incredible service! This office is also incredibly accommodating. There have been times they’ve made me so comfortable that I’ve actually fallen asleep. I could not recommend a better dentist to use because they are the best!!

Katherine McGauley Published on Google 5 months ago

Fantastic experience: Have had great experience so far! Finding a dentist is tricky, especially when not going off of personal referrals, so I feel lucky to have picked this spot. Very efficient, kind, and effective communications with the office, as well as exam/cleaning and cavity filling. I have recommended to some friends already. Thanks!

Fantastic experience: In paramedicine they say nobody cares how much you know until they know how much you care. To me the staff breaths kindness and compassion. What comes from the heart goes to the heart. The staff personifies the expression, " God's spirit shines through people like you."

Rubin N Published on Google 5 months ago

Fantastic experience: Great staff, everyone is caring and friendly/welcoming! You'll feel right at home. There's no stress or anxiety during the whole cleaning procedure. Just let them know if you have any soreness before hand and they'll be extra careful New Update: experience hasn't changed, service is still excellent, the dentist and assistant were very attentive to my needs

R. Grady Published on Google 5 months ago

Fantastic experience: Dr. Nam and the entire staff are AMAZING including the security gentleman outside. Parking is limited but that’s a small price to pay for extremely quality service. There is a lift available for those who need special accommodations as my mom needs. The security guard is so pleasant and accommodating. Dental work isn’t always pleasant but somehow they have mastered the experience for their customers. A job well done!!!!

Clara Chao Published on Google 6 months ago

Fantastic experience: Dr. Nam and team are simply the best in the Oakland area. Our whole family-- three generations-- have been going to them for years. They are highly skilled and experienced at everything from comforting frightened toddlers and convincing them to allow their teeth to be cleaned (and keep brushing at home!) to serious root canals and periodontitis surgery.

The Women Niche Published on Google 6 months ago

Fantastic experience: I had an amazing experience unlike any other dentist. The front desk lady was lovely, and the assistants and Dr. Nam were truly interested in my concerns and tried to help in any way they could. I have really appreciated all their kindness, support, and professionalism.

Laura Daykin Published on Google 6 months ago

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Dr. Nam as well as Dr. Blake. They are very knowledgeable, kind, and good communicators. They explain treatment options clearly and honestly, never pushing for things not really needed. All of the dental hygienists are great as well. Everyone in the office is friendly and welcoming. 5 stars!

Negative experience: Rude staff and unreliable service. Had to switch dentists as they keep messing up my teeth.

Laura Alexandra Published on Google 7 months ago

Negative experience: Great dental care, but they have a security person at the door who acts like law enforcement. It’s very uncomfortable and completely out of place for a dentist office

Stan Mayfield Published on Google 7 months ago

Positive experience: 3.5 Stars The polishing and dental X-ray technician was a but aggressive. Felt like my tooth was about to be chipped. The cleaning was thorough, and felt amazing upon exiting the office. The music added a great touch.

Les McFoler Published on Google 7 months ago

Fantastic experience: Excellent, mindful, kind and professional care. Friendly, knowledgeable and helpful staff. Everything you could wish for in a professional dental practice

Sadie Black Published on Google 7 months ago

Fantastic experience: I've had both Dr. Name and Dr. Blake work on my teeth (Dr. Blake is my actual dentist) over the past few years going to their office and both are fantastic! Everyone in the office is very friendly, kind, and helpful. Dr. Name, Dr. Blake, and all the techs are very gentle and caring. I got a lot of cavities and had some pretty extensive orthodontic work as a kid/teen so dental care/visits can cause me some anxiety, but I really don't experience that going to this office. This extended into my experience getting all four wisdom teeth taken out simultaneously as well! I was given the option to do the extractions over two visits (and technically I didn't HAVE to get all four out if I'm remembering correctly), but after talking to both doctors, I felt comfortable doing all four at once as well as a few fillings and it was a great experience! Dr. Nam did my wisdom teeth and he was quick but gentle and communicated and checked in with me throughout the procedure. It was quicker, easier, and less painful than I could ever hope for! Another great experience - my husband also sees Dr. Blake and he came in for his first visit with some sever tooth pain. Turns out he needed an emergency root canal but it was the end of the day and most offices were closing, but Dr. Blake called a personal friend who was an endodontist and asked him to see my husband that evening after hours and he agreed and my husband was able to get the needed work done that day! I would recommend both dentists to anyone! Just a great office all around

Eric kisshauer Published on Google 7 months ago

Fantastic experience: We have been Dr. Nam’s patients since he first acquired this dental practice. His relationship with us is both personal and professional. Today’s visit was a routine cleaning. He saw us on time, his staff was welcoming and caring.

Fantastic experience: Everyone in the office, from the front desk to the back are so kind, caring, respectful and Professional. I feel like I am at home and a part of my Family.

Fantastic experience: I met with Dr. Nam for the first time today. We discussed options for my treatment and he was informative, kind, and very knowledgeable and helpful in explaining the pros and cons of each one. All of the staff are equally friendly , knowledgeable and helpful. They also use state of the art equipment. Highly recommend this practice.

Radhika Sivaramakrishna Published on Google 9 months ago

Fantastic experience: I cannot thank Dr Nam and his staff enough for how well they took care of my 93 year old mom's dental needs. The amount of careful thought, flexibility, patience and kindness, excellent attention to detail, use of latest dental equipment and consideration for an elderly patient really blew my mind ! Thank you Dr Nam

Robert Goff Published on Google 10 months ago

Fantastic experience: Dr. Nam and his staff rock! I researched several dentists after a 5 year hiatus. Finally, I found the right one. But we had the wrong insurance carrier! Darn! But I was confident of my research, so we switched carriers. Obstacle removed. Awesome choice! Make yours today.

Jessica Tracy Published on Google 10 months ago

Fantastic experience: Dr. Nam saved me soooooo much stress today by stabilizing a tooth before I go into labor! An emergency dentist was going to charge me 5 times as much and would have required me to come back right after childbirth. Feels like they actually care here, and are patient centered. I usually see Dr. Blake who is also great. Highly recommend them both.

Eleni Apostolou Published on Google 10 months ago

Fantastic experience: Dr. Nam is amazing and his Staff are wonderful! This was my 1st office visit and he's my DDS from now on! He's very kind and patient, and explains everything in detail, giving you options in your treatment plan, if needed. I've always been apprehensive about going to the Dentist, but I'm completely at ease with Dr. Nam, and I totally trust him. I know I'm in the best capable hands with Dr. Nam. A Friend referred me to him and I will be referring my Friends, as well. You don't need to fear going to the Dentist, once you see Dr. Nam.

Fantastic experience: I've been going to Daniel Nam, DDS & Associates for the last four years seeing Dr. Blake. My visits are always pleasant and they make me feel welcome. Dr. Blake has a great bedside manner and has a gentle touch. I'm very happy with the services I've received and I'll be going back.

Ellen S Published on Google 11 months ago

Fantastic experience: Dr. Blake, Dr. Nam - the entire staff never cease to pleasantly surprise me! Dentist visits are never fun, but they make you feel like you're right at home. I've been seeing Dr. Blake for many years. The staff will explain the process and talk through each step (teeth cleaning, root canal, xray, etc.) so you are informed throughout the process. Making appointments and communicating with the team has always been seamless as they can receive texts/calls for appointments. It makes it easier for someone who works full time and can't call during normal business hours. You can leave them a text and they'll reply during their normal business hours to confirm.

Kathy Mejia Published on Google 11 months ago

amy whitehurst morrison Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I've been coming to Dr. Nam's office for 8 years and it's a perfect dentist's office. They keep notes on the patients so they know what you like, for example I don't do the polish and they know that. I also really appreciate that they don't do a lot of small talk while the cleaning is happening. The dental assistants change frequently because they're a training facility but everyone is very professional, quick and well informed. Plus the main dentists have been there for years, it's a great place to work. The awesome thing I found out today is that they have weighted blankets if you want one, something Dr. Nam helped design! I got the 10 lb one and it was heaven. I closed my eyes behind the super sports sunglasses, listened to the delightful playlist they always have going (no smooth musac jazz, thank you) and felt downright cozy during my visit. Great spot, check it out!

Joel Shepard Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: My appointment was far more than satisfactory. I was actually treated as a human, which means a lot to me as a medi-cal recipient, and a cavity was filled on the spot. I felt very well informed at the end of the appointment. I would highly recommend this office to any medi-cal recipient.

Jill Secrest Published on Google 1 year ago

Tricia McGillis Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: This is an excellent dentist office, with great staff and communications. The office is calm and comfortable. They are fast and efficient and friendly, and I’ve always found a nearby parking spot on the street. This is the fifth dentist office I’ve been to in the past 20 years in the Bay Area and my favorite one - my entire family now sees Dr Blake and Dr Nam.

Lvg Published on Google 1 year ago

Negative experience: Please don’t waste your time trying to call them. Automated messaging system text you and they will reply after 2 day. Then to asking you how did you reach them and request you info about your insurance, they will put on an waitlist during months. What kind of health service are they offering? What kind of ethical or moral professional do they have???

The two front desk receptionists are always very welcoming, warm and has a great smile to greet their customers.

Dr. Blake is so good at what she does, which made my experience very comfortable with confidence in my awesome A+ dentist.

Fantastic experience: Just had a wonderful experience with Dr. Blake and staff. I have been a patient for many years and always feel so taken care of when I visit. I used to be scared of going to the dentist but the whole team provides such excellent work and care that I no longer dread visiting. Dr. Nam and Dr. Blake are experts, as is the whole team! Highly recommend for annual visits as well as any emergency work.

Valerie Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Dr. Nam and his staff are the BEST! This morning I had to mentally prepare for another option in my dental work. EVERYTHING was explained in detail from the procedure to the billing.

Reginald Hillmon Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: My experience was extremely pleasant from the very first phone call to set up my appointment. The same kindness, humor, and hospitality was demonstrated from check-in, x-rays, to the doctor, cleanings and follow-up scheduling. It had been a while since going to the dentist. Given what I was dealing with, they made my return less traumatic.

Lauren Fierro Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Dr. Nam’s office is very inviting and calm. I have been a patient for about 4 or 5 years and I have only had positive experiences. Specifically with Dr. Blake who has done my cleanings as well as my Invisalign. She is so friendly and supportive. Going to the dentist can be stressful but I always feel relieved after a visit. Highly recommend.

Urvish Shah Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I get treated by Dr Blake. Dr Blake is exceptional in how she puts me at ease and educates me on how to care for my dental hygiene. She comes across as very caring, fun and playful, which makes my visits stress-free. The entire staff at this clinic is extremely helpful and supportive, atypical of any hospital environment. I highly recommend considering this clinic as your one stop shop for all things dental.

Irma Rosales Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Staff is very polite respectful. They are very good at guiding you through a procedure and very sensitive to your needs they go out off their way to accommodate your need. I'm very grateful to have them as my dental team. I have trauma caused by my previous dentist and they have been very helpful and sensitive to this issue.

Anna Liu Published on Google 1 year ago

Negative experience: Please don't go to this place if you are a student and have dental cal. The Doctor provides Dental Cal solely because of the tax break and since teeth filling was covered by Dental CAL, he lied in front of my face that I don't have any cavities, what he said was "I don't see any cavities" which was absolutely a lie since the dentist I went last year told me I have 6 cavities and thank to Nam that I knew filling will be covered by Dental Cal at the moment he lied. The staff in the front desk Jenny has no decency and beyond rude. When I've done with my regular check-up, I was sitting outside and she approached me and told me that I was able to bring me spouse in and she can schedule for me the day. So, I listened to her and called my spouse who's about to pick me up but not around. When I was calling her, she immediatly became agitated and told me "You can't call in the front desk area", what kind of companies, stores, offices would tell their customers to not pick up their phone in the front desk areas? This rude attitude's unbearable and disgusting, she acted. like i was the one approaching her and asked her whether she could schedule for my partner? In fact, she was the one who offered it and I was just doing it because I naively thought she trully wanna schedule and was kind. And i just followed what she told me to do and she said something " I am sorry, I have other stuff to do so I won't be able to schedule her up, let her call me." Ok, so I called my partner and told her that she can call the office and she called, Jenny started mumbling like "I didn't know she will call now!" How rude is her attitude, I clearly knew that it was 4:00 and they will close at 5 and i didn't ask her to do any EXTRA WORK for me, she was the one who offered and started to talk shit in front of the customers in front of their face? Something more disgusting's waiting for me. Jenny again began to say something like "Anna, are you gonna leave, oh, cause I don't want you to feel like you are waiting for us!"? It's understandable that you don't want to provide service to patients with Medical, but it's unethical and unacceptable for you to humiliate them like this!!

Negative experience: I trusted this place to install two crowns on my upper rear molars after having a double root canal. The first time that they did it the crowns were extremely uncomfortable and caused excessive inflammation within weeks. X rays were taken and cavitation had already begun. I was told this was because my bite had spread my teeth, allowing for food to be trapped in the newly formed gap and that there was nothing they could do besides try to replace the crowns and try again. So, I let them extract and replace both crowns, which was extremely intrusive and uncomfortable and it didn’t solve the problem. I have tried to contact Dr. Blake about this but the front desk insists that I pay to have access to her for a “consultation” which is ridiculous after spending thousands of dollars to have faulty work done. Any business with integrity would agree to take accountability for their faulty work without charging the clients even more money to “consult” them.

Fantastic experience: I'm deathly afraid of dentists and my friend recommended Dr. Nam so I went to him after not seeing a dentist for many years. As soon as I walked into the office I was made to feel not only listened to but well informed of what needed to be done. I was then made very comfortable by his assistants before the work was to be done. Dr. Nam was very kind and soft spoken and he explained everything to me. I would and have recommended him to my friends and family. I love in Antioch and make the trip to Oakland and feel it is very worth it. I thank you Dr. Nam for giving me my teeth back. Joyce D Sole

Fantastic experience: This office is staffed with fantastic people, across the board. They are gentle with the procedures, but very thorough at the same time. Dr. Blake always does a great job and makes me feel very listened to as a patient. I've brought my wife in as a patient and will bring my son when he is older too-can't recommend them all enough!

Fantastic experience: Everyone here is exceptionally caring and very skilled at what they do. You will feel cared for as if you were going in for a spa treatment, even though you’re there for X-rays and a cleaning. : )) The dental hygienists/assistants are wonderful and always thinking ahead. Dr. Nam is a delightful man and clearly enjoys what he does. Oh, and don’t forget to ask for the Wallaby!!

Dr. Nam assesses the problem, formulates the solution and executes the treatment with the utmost efficiency and least discomfort possible.

Loren Palacios Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Dr. Blake! I’m a new patient and I got an appointment within a week from when I called to schedule. Was brought back within 5 minutes from when I checked in. The assistant was very friendly and professional. Had X-rays, cleaning and a filling all in the same appointment. Great bedside manners from the doctor and assistant.

Fantastic experience: I have been going here for almost a decade. I follow them from the city to the East Bay. Kind staff and Dr. Nam is the best. Highly recommend this group to anyone looking for a new dentist.

Fantastic experience: Been three years since I saw the dentist (due to a bad experience), and instead of a cleaning I got a surprise tooth extraction (for a painful tooth- was hoping filling or at worst a root canal in the future but that tooth already had one). And even then, I'm happy about today's visit because I finally got a dentist it's I think I could stay with. Bought the in house sorta insurance plan. Everyone was SUPER friendly, and sensitive to my anxiety. I'm glad I followed my friend's referral. Oh, and first time anyone ever took a full head 360 degree x-ray. *update* been a number of appointments now- this is by far one of the most pleasant dentist experiences I have had. I have gum disease, but am not in pain when they clean, this is the first dentist that has been so gentle!

Fantastic experience: These guys are simply the best! Professionalism, quality and just good people to boot! They got the whole package. Plus now they have something called the Wallaby. It's like a blanket that keeps you planted in place. Such a help and strangely makes you feel much more comfy and takes the stress away. That simple thing really helps.

Amy Abascal Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: First time visiting here. I absolutely loved Dr. Blake. She was so positive and relatable. She was gentle, didn't try upselling me on a bunch of treatments, and made it easy to want to come back. I've already given the office contact info to a friend.

Fantastic experience: I had my dental visit today, and as usual, the experience was excellent. The staff was very professional and trustworthy, making me feel as ease throughout the appointment. They are also very helpful in answering my questions and explaining the process. The office was beautifully decorated for autumn, which added a warm touch the visit. Overall, a great experience!
