Fantastic experience: Dr. Gruenes is very caring yo go over everything so one can make the best decision as to how to move forward no matter what type of opportunity you have. I really like when she is able to use the laser to fix my teeth rather than having to get the shots. However, even when I had to get a shot, she is very methodical about it as your comfort is her #1 concern. Her work on my teeth looks great and trust it will last a long long time!! I would recommend Dr. Gruenes to everOne for sure!!

Hands down the best dentist you’ll ever find!

Fantastic experience: The staff was all great. They welcomed me and make you feel comfortable in there office. From start to finish. Letting you know every step of the way. However, what I didn’t care for was when I was leaving I discovered that they were not in network. My own fault. But wish I would have asked or it would have been mentioned.

Fantastic experience: From the moment I scheduled my appointment, I was thoroughly impressed. The entire staff is incredible—compassionate, organized, and truly caring. I loved meeting with Dr. Gruenes, discussing my dental history, and gaining a deeper understanding of my oral health. I’ve never had a dentist explain gum health, cavities, and tooth care in such detail—it was so helpful! The dental assistants and hygienists were so kind and gentle; I felt completely safe the entire time. They went above and beyond to make my visit a positive experience. This is by far the best dental office I’ve ever been to, and I would 100% recommend them to anyone looking for a compassionate, highly skilled team. Thank you for the amazing care!
Fantastic experience: I had a sensitive tooth so I went to get it checked out. They took x-rays and thoroughly checked the area.

The assistant Alyssa was very gentle - you can tell they genuinely care about their patients comfort. Highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: Appreciate the staff and their concern for making my care a positive experience. Only complaint is the way the delta dental insurance is handled. I really want my routine appointment covered at time of appointment rather than waiting up to 10 days for reimbursement check. A couple hundred dollars out of pocket is a lot to expect patient to cover.
