I cannot recommend this place enough!!! I’ve had problems with my teeth most of my life and it was time for a change. I spent a lot of time with Dr. Alex planning and coming up with the best treatment plan. We decided to proceed with a full mouth rehabilitation in other words a smile make over. The whole process was smooth, painless and comfortable. Dr. Alex made sure to explain every procedure from start to finish. I LOVE my new smile!! Thank you so much!!

After a schedule mix up on my part Dr Kirkoff and staff was able to get me in later the same day to have my temp crown work done. I have been a customer of this office for 15 plus years and they have always been great. Thank you!

I have never felt more comfortable and at home at a dental office. The front desk is so warm and welcoming! Dr. Alex and Scott made my root canal appointment enjoyable, if that’s even possible! They are amazing!

I appreciate the total information that is given before a procedure is given. So I know what to expect. My dentist explains what he recommends and the consequences if I decide not to do a procedure. No pressure just facts so I can decide. Very pleased with the staff as well!
