Fantastic experience: I've been a patient of Dr Markgraf's for several years. He's an outstanding dentist if you're interested using an experienced dentist who's professional and highly skilled. Along with Dr Markgraf, his office staff is accommodating, friendly and professional. I wouldn't consider using any other dentist in the area.
Fantastic experience: 20+ years and the entire experience is always the same. He and his staff are always professional, informative, and friendly.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Markgraf and all of his staff are top notch in all regards. He is up to date on the newest techniques and has the latest equipment. Communication with the office is always timely and courteous. Routine cleanings are always thorough and not rushed. He is very much a perfectionist. With long term projects you are given a complete run down on costs beforehand. I have no way to compare costs but charges can be very high. I suggest you inquire to see if his services are right for you. My wife and I have used him for over 10 years because of the quality of his work.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a patient of Doctor Markgraf for over 6 years. A trusted friend recommended him to me and I couldn’t have gotten a better Dentist and practice. The Doctor and entire staff are extremely knowledgeable, professional, and work like a team with your best interests and needs always in mind. I was happy and very impressed with the care they took to make my smile look great. From teeth cleaning to more serious dental work, they treat each one as important. I wouldn’t put my teeth in any one else’s hands. Doctor Markgraf and his staff are the best.
Fantastic experience: Dr Markgraf has a great staff and are very attentive to your needs. I particularly like Dr Markgraf's approach to your dental care.

I have zero complaints for anything he has done so far.

Fantastic experience: This was my first visit with Dr. Mike and I had a great experience. He really took his time with me going over my health and dental history. This was followed by a very thorough exam. Usually the actual doctor spends only 5 to 10 minutes at most with you. Dr. Mike spent at least 25 to 30 minutes for the initial exam. Sarah performed my cleaning after the exam and she was great as well. If you’re looking for a dentist in this area I highly recommend you checking out Dr. Mike. I also want to say the office is immaculate. Inviting waiting room and staff were very friendly.

Fantastic experience: Everyone at Dr Markgraf’s office is always friendly and professional and make sure you understand what they are doing and that you are comfortable at all times.
Positive experience: Dr. Mike is an awesome Dentist. However I was quoted $245 for a cleaning and was charged $490 and that was for only half of my teeth. So full mouth teeth cleaning is now roughly $1000.
We appreciate your feedback on this matter. You were quoted tentatively for an easier cleaning in December of 2023 after 5 years of not seeing a Dentist. We did inform you at that time it was possible it could be more costly once the hygienist was able to begin cleaning your teeth, and determine the amount and tenacity of the buildup on your teeth and below the gums. You chose to not schedule your appointment until 6/2024. The buildup on your teeth in June was enough to require multiple visits to thoroughly clean your teeth, hence the higher fee.
Fantastic experience: I am a patient of Dr, Markgraf since 2024 and I always been very satisfied, for me he is the best, I will never change
Fantastic experience: I’m finally after all these years I’m writing a five star review. I’ve been a patient well over 8 years. Since day one I’ve should of wrote this. I can’t say enough good things about their staff, office, service and dentist. Always pleasant and offers the best that they can do. Thank you to all of you! Sincerely, Joan Haynes
Fantastic experience: Great dentistry! Very gentle and professional. Convenient, bright clean facility and friendly staff.
Fantastic experience: Tooth extraction went very well. Dr.Markgraf kept me informed during the process & gave me clear instructions for after care. Very pleased with the whole experience.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Mike & his "entire" Office Team took efficient & great care of myself and my husband. Not only is Dr. Mike knowledgeable , but we call it the "old school" approach to customer service by taking the time to explain procedures in a succinct & patient manner.
Fantastic experience: I am anxiety prone and Dr Markgraf couldn’t have been kinder or gentler. He explained everything as he went. My front chipped tooth was fixed and he even improved the tooth next to it. He deserves more stars!!!! I highly recommend him for any age!!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Markgraf is fantastic, I went to a butcher when I was younger, so I’ve always disliked dentist Until I met him, I always feel very Much at ease with him. And the one thing I really like about him, he tells you everything he’s going to do before he does it and he doesn’t make you feel bad because you’re a big baby when it comes to dentist. And he does fantastic work
Fantastic experience: As always the entire staff from entrance to exit is professional… Most importantly Dr Markgraf is so skilled and kind…I highly recommend him.
Fantastic experience: Dr Mike has an excellent bedside manner and does great work! I am so grateful to have found this practice! I’ve had several fillings done by Dr.Mike and I never felt the needle! Many years ago, I was told by a “chain” dentist that I would need to put thousands of dollars in veneers on my front teeth in order to get rid of the stains. At my first appointment with Dr. Mike he polished my teeth, removed the stains, and didn’t even charge me for the polishing! At my very first appointment I was given my smile back that I’d kept hidden in photos for so long. If you are looking for an HONEST Dentist, this is your place!!!
Fantastic experience: It’s hard to find a good dentist!!!! But I did!! Just finished up 2 root canals, I have had many, the best I have ever had!! He is fabulous!!
Fantastic experience: Awesome friendly staff and an awesome dentist. They make the experience as pleasant as it can be. 10 stars in my opinion as they do anything they can to make you comfortable within reason. Knowledge, Friendly, and Integrity. Check check and check!
Positive experience: great dentist but waaaay too expensive! Most seniors are on a fixed income. Most insurance companies are overpriced and don't cover adequately, so seniors are stuck paying out of pocket.Medicare doesn't help.It's a sad predicament.
Fantastic experience: Great dentist and staff who are experienced and truly care about your treatment. I'm very happy with all the work they did replacing my very old fillings!
Fantastic experience: My mom fell and chipped three of her teeth Dr MarkGraf & his awesome staff helped her tremendously. Thank you so much.
