Dentists

Dr. Gio has changed my life, prolonged my life, and made it possible for me to share a bed with my wife again. We will get to that in a minute.... I have been a patient of Dr. Gio for more than 18 years. He is gentle, thorough, and looks at the big picture. In the past, I just went in to the dentist for cleanings and exams. I have great teeth and only needed one filling done. However, he took the time and pointed out several things with the way my teeth come together that long term were causing me problems. He showed me the wear on all my teeth as well as the fractures, and erosion which really surprised me. I knew I was a grinder, but I never spent the time nor had all the effects ( sensitivity, recession, yellowing, and cracks) been pointed out to me. . He also showed me the pitting and yellowing on my teeth which was caused by too much soda and reflux. Arrrggh. I love soda, but he explained how bad that was for my enamel as well as my overall health. His Exam revealed that i might have SLEEP APNEA and I was blown away. How can a dentist tell that just by looking? Dr. Gio has taken many CE courses and has broadened his care to much more than just teeth. He showed me several things about myself that I was unaware of my tongue, the size of my mouth, how my teeth come together, the wear, the shape of my neck and a whole bunch more. Without a doubt, I was blown away. I always felt tire, overweight, found it difficult to exercise because I didn't have enough energy and was moody (so my wife and kids say). My wife would often nudge and push me at night, or worse yet, kick me out of the bedroom due to snoring. He ordered a sleep study which I did at home, and sure enough, I had moderate - severe apnea (I stop breathing at night for up to 60 seconds at a time many times a night). No wonder I'm tired all the time, I never get good sleep. His treatment was to make an oral sleep appliance called a somnodent which I wear every night. Wooooowwww!!! what a difference from the first night. I sleep better, feel better, have lost 50 pounds and more important, get to come back into the bedroom. Dr. Gio gently lead me down the right path. I was reluctant, resistant, and pessimistic about this whole thing. Looking back on it, I should have done this 30 years ago. What makes this story so profound is that Dr. Gio and I went to dental school together and graduated in the same class. As a dentist, a friend, and a patient, I highly recommend he and his practice. I have now incorporated treating and diagnosing sleep apnea as well into my practice recognizing it's importance.

Dr Mikhail pushed multiple fillings that were not required. Claimed my previous dentist (one of the best in area) did a bad job on a crown and it would need his fixing. Did more harm that good. Even the cleaning was super rough, not gentle at all. Worst dentist I've ever had.

I was so impressed with my first visit to Tolley Dental! The dental hygienist provided such a thorough cleaning and was very conscientious. The staff was knowledgeable and pleasant - and I will definitely be going back.

Since a child I have always had a fear of the Dentist. The needles, the tools, the sounds.. ugh. Nothing has ever made me want to go to a dentist. Except the pain that I endured last week. My teeth are not in the best condition because of this fear. Cleanings, fillings etc is needed but I put them off because of the pain I suffered as a child. Last year, one of my jaw teeth broke but I refused to go to the dentist. Until this past week when it became infected, my face swelled to the size of a basketball, and the pain felt like a hot poker iron was being stored in my gum. I reached out and called Dr. Lees office. Even though I had NO dental history there they took me in to see me that same day. I had made the appt online. Which was cool. I didn't have to talk (my mouth hurt) The assistant (front desk) took my information without making me feel guilty for not seeing a dentist before it became so bad. She just met me where I was , in pain..she understood and made sure I had all the information I needed to see Dr. Lee. When I went back to see Dr. Lee, his nurses were all so very kind. The one lady that looked in my mouth first did not make me feel bad because my teeth were in such bad shape. She just told me what she saw and said that Dr. Lee would be in. She also, just met me where I was. Dr. Lee was very kind, compassionate, knowledgeable and did not judge me for my teeth. He also met me where I was. Although.. lol, ofcourse he did tell me what I needed to do in the future for my teeth. He is a doctor after all. lol. And I will follow up on his treatment plan. All in all, my visit was as pleasant as a dental visit could be. The entire team was awesome. I did not encounter any pain during my visits at all. It was better service than I have ever encountered in any medical office or actually anywhere. I was very pleased and if you are looking for a dentist..rest assured.. this is the best.

After reading all the bad reviews, I was a little nervous about my apt with Dr. Choi. He seemed nice enough but within a week he sent a letter saying he was withdrawing as my doctor with no explanation as to why. I tried to find out why from his staff but they were rude and hung up on me. Never got results of tests so had to go elsewhere. Very strange Dr and staff.

I love Stacy Miller she is the best doctor

The above review by “thoreau poe” is a blatant smear piece and completely false. Winchester Dental Care has no patient with that name in our records. This person also went on to write a similar piece on health grades but changed their supposed amounts, one can only assume, for effect. The rest of the review talks about differential diagnosis from another dentist. This happens in dentistry constantly. You can easily find two dentists, in the same practice even, that will disagree about certain diagnosis. Some dentists prefer to proactively treat problems to prevent further damage and some prefer the wait and see method and will only treat if something is causing a problem.

Great staff, great care, and they tell you exactly what you need to know about your treatment.

Simply the BEST dentist ever! Love Dr. K. And his staff are second to none.

Best dental office around! Staff are super professional and they actually care about you. Dr Brown makes you feel completely comfortable. I would not go anywhere else for my dental needs! NOTHING SHORT OF AMAZING!

Dr. Thomas was very helpful, kind, and knowledgable during a consultation with me about an abscess tooth. Would definitely recommend her!

The best dentist I have ever been to!

Dr Wang... And nurse Mary are amazing!
