Dunes Dental Services Inc

Fantastic experience: If you re looking for dentistry that cares, doesn’t leave you hunting pain killers after a cleaning and can fix about anything, this is your place!!! Dr Alina and her staff are top shelf!!

Fantastic experience: Wonderful , I was seen on a very short notice and my issue was resolved the same day. A few short months and a handfull of visits later I have to add the following to do justice to the practice: I cannot recommend Dr. Alina Rose and her entire team highly enough. Over the past four months, I have been under their care for a complex dental issue, and the level of service I received was outstanding. From the very first appointment, the team prioritized my comfort and wellbeing above all else. They approached a difficult situation with immense skill, patience, and compassion, ensuring I understood every step of the process. Thanks to their dedication and expertise, I am finally feeling better and fully functional again. If you are looking for a practice that truly cares about the patient experience, this is the place to go."

Fantastic experience: Wonderful group of ladies who are extremely professional and take pride in their work. Dr. Alina is THE BEST! I have been to several different dentists and Dr. Alina is by far THE BEST I have ever seen. She puts you at ease, tells you everything she is doing, and she takes awesome care of her staff. I enjoy going in for my cleanings with Brittney. She is so professional and THE BEST at her job. She is the only one I will let take care of my teeth.

Fantastic experience: It’s always such a pleasure visiting Dunes Dental. Everyone is so professional and kind. I would never go anywhere else!

Fantastic experience: I love the care, the staff and Dr. Alena. I’ve been a patient for several years and have referred others, who have also been very satisfied. They are very thorough and make sure you get any necessary treatments and don’t try to perform services that you don’t need. Also had a wonderful hygienist yesterday.

Fantastic experience: Not enough good things can be said about Dunes Dental Services, Dr Alina and the entire staff are wonderful. My husband & I have been a patient for over 15 yrs. and we wouldn't think of going to another dentist.

Fantastic experience: I am 85 years old and have seen many changes in Dental care. Former dentists were personal friends, but Dr. Alina Rose's initial examination was absolutely the most thorough I have ever had. If I had been fortunate to have exams at that level 50 years ago, I could have saved thousands of dollars in dental costs.

Fantastic experience: Great experience! Friendly from the time I walk in till the time i leave.. Cleaning was painless and thorough... Would highly recommend.. thanks Dr Alena , Brittaney and staff!!!

Fantastic experience: Dunes Dental is an excellent dental practice. Dr. Alina and her staff are skilled professionals, from routine cleanings to crown and other dental procedures. Appointments are efficiently processed, as are check-ins, checkouts, insurance claims and payments. I'm always greeted promptly and seen in a reasonable time. The hygienists are thorough and explain everything they're doing. I have been a patient there for over ten years, and feel totally comfortable with the care provided. I use the practice even though they're out-of-network for my insurer, because the care is so thorough.

Fantastic experience: This was my first time at Dunes Dental and I had a very good experience! From the very start speaking with Kathy by phone, the front desk staff when I was greeted for my appointment to the hygienist Sammy and then Dr. Alina herself I was treated kindly and with great respect. I had a not very good experience with another dentist the week prior so this was a very different experience. I feel in very competent hands with Dr. Alina and I'm very happy to have found her. If you're looking for a new dentist I highly recommend Dr Alina and Dunes Dental!

Fantastic experience: Great place to go! Very polite and easy to be treated for my dental needs. I highly recommend. I have had an emergency with my gums, teeth pain on a weekend. Dr Alina called me back in minutes and prescribed what I needed until I could get in to see them.

Fantastic experience: Great first appointment!! Two young children, hygienist were amazing with them. Dr. Was extremely kind, and more importantly knowledgeable and honest. Glad to have chosen dunes dental.

Fantastic experience: I had not been to a dentist in 20 years, but broke a tooth so I had no choice. The good news is Dunes Dental Services was the best choice I could have made since Dr. Alina and her staff were understanding and gentle throughout the process. I have more dental work that needs to be done and I'm (almost ... lol) comfortable and confident about going back. I also love that they play Christian music.

Fantastic experience: Each time I visit I see why she is rated "Top Dental Practice " in the South Strand. By the ease of check in, friendly greeting by the receptionist, her friendly and efficient Hygienist and to Dr Alina herself caring about her patients. You won't find a better practice in Myrtle.

Fantastic experience: So happens I’m a big major league baseball fan and the MLB Playoffs & World Series are in progress. In baseball speak after my just recent 6-month visit to the Dunes Dental practice I experienced the expertise of Dr. Alina, the gentleness in Britany’s hygienic touch, the financial advantage of the Dunes Dental insurance program and the scheduling coordination of Jennifer and Courtney … it’s as if there were 4-home-runs in one game … such a winning practice.

Fantastic experience: It is a very detailed dental service. They are very focused on the client/patient.

Fantastic experience: Not only is Dr. Alina the best dentist (IMHO) on the Grand Strand but her staff is awesome. From Jennifer, who checks with my insurance company to see the coverage for any upcoming procedures (the first medical group to ever provide this for me so I dont have to deal with the insurance company), Courtney, who is the most proficient and courteous Dental Assistant, and Allison and Brittney, two awesome dental Hygienists. I highly recommend this group. You wont be disappointed.

Fantastic experience: Myrtle Beach shares Ohio as our home. Choosing doctors can be a daunting task, especially in two locations. Ohio has been done for years and the Beach has begun with our dentist Dr. Alina Cletu at Dunes Dental Services. From the warm and friendly staff to the pristine offices all encompassed under the best dentist I was lucky enough to find in my 74 years. My first thought after she took care of my problem——-I wish she was in Ohio as well. An incredible dental experience just a few miles away for anyone to get lucky.

Fantastic experience: Dr Alina and her staff are the most professional people in the dentistry industry. They saved my wife and I from losing all my teeth ; another Dr. In NY. Wanted to put an invesiline to straighten my teeth but they didn't know there was gengivities and infection, so putting that devise on my teeth would have ruin all my gums and teeth at the expense of hundred of thousands of dollars from my own pocket. Another time, a Dr. In Williamsburg, Virginia wanted to extract 2 mollars with the pretext of an infection in the gum; I went to Dr. Alina, she treated me and saved me from the extraction, pain and high price to pay. In another occasion a Dr. In Williamsburg, Virginia prescribed a devise that would help my APNIA the dental devise was near 3000 dollars and a respiratory machine was over 4000 dollars. I opted to have my Dr Alina to give me a consultation on that condition. DR. Alina took the imprints, created a dental devise that cost me only 700 dollars and again I was fine after that. That is why Dr. Alina is the best in the industry. I would never change dentists for nothing!

Fantastic experience: Best dentist on the beach! Always goes that extra mile to make us comfortable!

Fantastic experience: Recently broke a tooth on a Sunday and tried to get an appointment for a couple dentists in the area with no success. Called Dunes Dental and after the receptionist talked with the dentist I was given an appointment within 2 hours. I arrived early was warmly greeted and completed the necessary paperwork. I was taken in in a timely manner and the entire experience could not have gone better. The hygienist was one of the best I've ever had and the dentist was professional proficient and my comfort was a priority. The procedure was completed quickly and I was out of the office within an hour. Needless to say this has become my new dentist.

Fantastic experience: I have been a dental patient of Dunes Dental for about 14 years. If it wasn't the best dental service, I would not have stayed with them for all of these years. Dunes Dental is your best choice in the Myrtle Beach/Surfside Beach areas. Worth driving a little further to go to the best.

Fantastic experience: I went for my regular cleaning yesterday with Brittney. Brittney is always kind, gentle, and informative of everything that she will be doing for me. Dr. Alina also checked my teeth, as always, and is always personable and willing to thoroughly answer all questions.

Fantastic experience: Terrific service! Dr. A. is wonderful and her staff can't be any nicer!

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Dunes Dental!! As a dental patient of Dr. Alina for nearly 7 years, I am very happy with the care I receive here. Alison is an outstanding dental hygienist also. Their staff are so friendly and professional, and the office is impeccably clean. They are the best!

Fantastic experience: Let’s face it! No one looks forward to going to the dentist but Dr. Alina and Brittany, one of her dental hygienists, make you feel at ease. I have and will continue to recommend Dr. Alina/Dunes Dental to anyone looking for a dentist.

Fantastic experience: Great place and professionals. Dr Alina and her team provided me the best care I have ever received from any dentist.

Fantastic experience: I had to have 2 fillings on 2 cavities and I wouldn’t go to anyone else ever. She is a caring, compassionate and incredibly knowledgeable dentist and I will never go to anyone else ever.

Fantastic experience: Can't be more grateful to know Dr. Alina and her team at Dunes Dental Services! Courteous, professional and the most qualified Dentist I know with a determination to stay in top of the latest research. I have been having issues with my teeth since childhood, but once I found her, I no longer had to make numerous visits to the dentist. I couldn't be more happy and appreciative for the new smile she gave me. I know I can always count on Dr. Alina as she has always been very sensitive to my concerns and questions.
