Fantastic experience: Best dental office I’ve had in the Peoria area, and I’ve gone to a few different ones. Finally one that I don’t dread going to.
Fantastic experience: They were so helpful. They fit me in and took care of a root canal on a drop in notice, fabulous, love them.
Fantastic experience: My filling had fell out over the weekend and so I called Monday. They got me in on Tuesday morning. Everything went fine. He checked everything out. Dr. Abraham told me that his professional suggestion that I needed and the hygienist they're all so polite and professional I can highly recommend them they get you in on time. They're also friendly at the front and Very very good work done in the past I've been seeing them for several years.
Negative experience: Avoid this dentist at all costs. The dentist just makes problems worse so his practice can maliciously generate more money from their clients. Went in for a small cavity filling about a month ago and the dentist took nearly the whole tooth out, causing extreme pain and leading me to need a root canal plus crown that (surprise!) they won't cover despite it being their fault.
Fantastic experience: I had a lot of work done on my teeth and expected to be in pain but the next day I feel nothing. They are good at taking care of their patients and they walked me through the procedure step by step. I am very pleased with Peoria Dental from the front desk to the dentist. Definitely will recommend
Fantastic experience: iT WAS WONDERFUL!!!! NICOLE GREETED ME WHEN I walked in the front door. A couple of people greeted me and called me by name. I felt so welcome. The new teeth are going to give me a beautiful smile. I am so happy and can't wait until I CAN WEAR THEM HOME. i FELT LIKE i looked pretty for the first time in over two years!!!!
Positive experience: First time at this office. They stayed on time. Everyone was very friendly, professional and I want to believe have the patient’s best interest in mind. I have not been to the dentist in 4-5 years ( I was a ritual every 6 months prior) due my longtime dentist selling out to a chain “big box” dental corporation. This office was professional when I was second guessing a portion of the treatment plan. I will follow up with more detail once I continue treatment with them. The only issue is they cannot get me back in until November. Good care and having trust is worth the wait.
Fantastic experience: Great staff, front desk awesome getting me in fast for a cleaning .
Fantastic experience: Would give so many more stars if I could! I have extreme dental anxiety and they were literally so nice for all my appointments!! I got a tooth extracted and have no dental insurance but we’re so helpful with advice and different ways I could cover the costs of my appointments. I didn’t feel pressured or bad for not having the best teeth, like other dentists have done. I will continue to go back and tell everyone else to go there! They are also super quick, no frills. I’ve been to many dentists in the area but this is by far the best one! ❤️

LOL Seriously if you are looking for a new dentist give them a shot! You won’t regret it
Fantastic experience: I appreciate Dr. Manny and his very kind staff for taking good care of me.
Fantastic experience: Best dental care I’ve ever experienced, from front desk to check out! I was more than impressed with Dr. Manny - he was not only professional but explained my options, was knowledgeable about my complicating health issues, and the entire staff was very compassionate. Megan was very sweet, personable, and professional. I left the appointment feeling reassured and knowing I had made the best choice possible for my care.
Fantastic experience: I really can't sing this team's praises enough. I've been going to this office and seeing Dr. Manny for a couple years now and he and his staff treat me with the upmost respect and care. They really hear you and see you as an individual, not just one of many to get through in the day. Dr. Manny has been so generous to me and I recommend this office to everyone when dentists come up. He and his staff are gentle, careful and thorough. Thanks so much for everything, guys
Fantastic experience: Love the dentist, love the staff!! Always so friendly and welcoming:)
Fantastic experience: Had to change my dental provider recently, as my prior one is no longer a preferred provider for Delta Dental. So happy to have made the change. The reception staff were extremely friendly and welcoming. Maddie, my hygienist, was personable and professional throughtout the cleaning procedure, providing step by step details as she went. Dr. Manny Zuniga was great as well. I read other reviews before selecting Peoria Dental, and am pleased that I followed the lead.
Fantastic experience: Peoria Dental has helped me with my concerns and they made me a plan for my treatment.The friendly staff and Dr. Zuniga explained everything and the prices perfectly.
Fantastic experience: I’ve been a patient here since 2023 and on the journey to correct my dental issues. If I could give 20 ⭐️ Stars I would! This is one of the best Dental Offices here in Peoria, IL. Friendly & helpful staff. Clean building. I could write an article on how awesome this place is.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Manny is an amazing person and an awesome Prosthodontist. When I first met him, my mouth/jaws wouldn't open much beyond a half an inch. He has gently corrected my teeth and jaw alignment to fix my bite, which inturn helped with eliminating my headaches. His dental assistants and hygienist also work with confidence and provide great care to you. Honestly, from the moment you phone the office you can just tell, you are being treated with "Next-Level" care, they all want to do their best and truly care. If your looking to receive personalized, awesome care, I highly recommend Dr. Danny's office, Peoria Dental.

Fantastic experience: The Peoria Dental Knoxville is the best. The staff are very approachable and kind.
Fantastic experience: I've always had a phobia of dentists. Dr. Manny and everyone of his staff have taken away my fears. Knowing that he prays, gives me peace of mind.
Fantastic experience: Leaving this review on behalf of my husband. He was seen by Dr. Manny and the wonderful staff at Peoria Dental for some pretty serious dental work. My husband said Dr. Many did a great job and made the whole process comfortable and easy. He is very grateful for the time that was spent to fix his teeth and the friendly staff that made it an enjoyable experience!
Fantastic experience: Peoria Dental is amazing. The staff is kind and professional. Dr Manny is amazing; he truly cares about his patients. I've never known such a wonderful dentist.
Fantastic experience: This is my second visit to Peoria Dental. The receptionists were very friendly. The hygienist did an amazing job cleaning my teeth and she was so pleasent to be around. It felt like she was my daughter. The dentist was excellent. Amazing employees! I am so glad I am a patient at Peoria Dental. My wife became one of their patients after my first visit because I had such a great experience.
Fantastic experience: They explain everything thoroughly. Very knowledgeable. Excellent and very gentle with me since I have dental anxiety.
Fantastic experience: Always a great experience when I come here! Everyone is so friendly and knowledgeable. Dr Manny is wonderful and the staff is great!

Fantastic experience: Top notch dentist. Took care of my broken tooth the same day. No more pain equals awesome. Dr. Manny and Danielle were the best.
Fantastic experience: Very positive experience with Maddy, who obviously loves her work as a dental hygienist. I was overdue for a cleaning but have rarely felt better after one! Very much looking forward to returning in April. These guys know what they’re doing and I’d recommend them strongly.
Fantastic experience: Great experience, absolutely love the staff. They are all so friendly and kept me entertained with the conversations. I came in with a vision and they executed WELL. Thank you for being great!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Manny and his staff are top notch. They are always professional, friendly, and cheerful and do a great job. They work together like a well-oiled machine and I have rarely had to wait long even though they are usually busy. Dr. Manny is very personable and listens to your fears or concerns and addresses them compassionately. The dental technicians have all been great too and the front desk girls are great as well. I have never had a bad experience there. My only complaint would be that their sign out front by the street is a bit small and sometimes hard to see in time when coming south down Knoxville Avenue. I have blown by it more than once.
Fantastic experience: My hygienist that I've been seeing the last 2 years has just been so wonderful. My husband and I have both had great experiences with Peoria Dental!
Fantastic experience: New patient here, treated great. From reception to hygienist to Dr. Manny great experience from all. Thank you!
Fantastic experience: Very good experience. Cleaning was great. The girl cleaning my teeth was extremely nice and attentive. The Dentist was also very nice and attentive. Always a nice experience. Everyone is very nice.
Fantastic experience: They were super kind and caring. They made sure I got the help I needed without going over my budget. They didn't push extra stuff on me either, and I really appreciate that!
Fantastic experience: Awesome place. Good assistant, Anna. Amazing dentist Manny.
Fantastic experience: What a great first visit. Everyone was friendly and helpful. Got my tooth pulled in a snap. Really enjoyed the atmosphere and the overall care I received. Hope to find away to come back. Keep up the great work.
Fantastic experience: Staff very friendly, Dr. Manny friendly and knowledgeable. Felt comfortable during all aspects of my 1st time appointment, pricing for what l was being seen for seemed reasonable. Of course my dental insurance doesn't cover Diddly Squat. Time to look for a new dental policy.
Fantastic experience: Both the dentist and hygienist were positive, thorough and very informative. Positive communication is clearly a priority. I love the culture created by the dentist who I observed telling the hygienist and other employees several times, "Good Job" and "Excellent Work". I also really like how the dentist trusts and relies on the report given by the hygienist of patient's X-rays and what they have seen while cleaning the teeth. Also, I made a mistake in the time of my appointment, which meant I was 10-15 minutes late. From the front desk to everyone else, I was not shamed or made to feel bad or rushed for being late. A great experience all around.
Fantastic experience: My first time here Staff was very friendly. Service was great. Dentist was up front about dental work and explained everything. I will definitely go back again.i am definitely recommending Peoria Dental to all my friends and family.
Fantastic experience: I called the office with tooth pain and they got me in asap. They were all very kind and caring, from the reception girls to the hygienist to Dr. Manny. I received the best care and I always do!
Fantastic experience: Excellent group of dental professionals. Took time to explain things to me and answer any question I had. They treated an old veteran like me with respect. Can't say enough good things about them.
Fantastic experience: I am petrified of dentists because of past experiences but Peoria dental hopefully through my anxiety and helped me get better I was in so much pain before but it really helped out when they said they were extract my tooth with no pain I have recommended them to other people with the same problem and I will guarantee be returning
Fantastic experience: I have visited Dr Manny and Co twice so far and could not be more impressed. I had previously felt like all dentists were trying to upsell me on things I never needed. I have never once felt this way about Dr Manny. Could not recommend Peoria Dental and their team more. Happy to have found them!
Fantastic experience: I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this Office to anyone with Fears/Anxiety with going to the Dentist!! I followed Dr. Manny from Morton because I had NEVER met a more Informative, Professional, Caring Dentist who truly had my Best Interest in Affordability, Priority, and Time Allowance. The staff is Awesome! From the gals at the reception area Welcoming Patients, Checking Insurance coverages, making appointments to the Assistants & Hygienists working in the back! Superb Office!!! A+++++ I'm so Thankful for Dr.Manny & his Staff!
Fantastic experience: If you're hesitant about the dentist you haven't seen Dr. Manny and his staff! I highly recommend without a doubt they will calm your nerves and make you feel like part of there family.

They don’t push unnecessary treatments and are kind when you have phobias/anxiety. They also have the latest tools to make going to the dentist less painful and more pleasant.
