I don’t know the names but the dentist who handled one of cases and his assistant were awesome!! Friendly smooth hands and kept me busy till they finished all the work.
I am not sure if it’s the right place but I used to visit dental clinics provided with micro cameras where all dentists can show patients what had been done to their teeth. i would love to see this technology implemented at Atlantis.
Love you guys, you rock.
The best place to go if you have any type of anxiety, fear, or phobia of the dentist. Before going I let the receptionist know that I am very scared and that whichever dentist I have should be aware of this. I unfortunately can’t remember any names of those who assisted me, but every single person was amazing. From the checkup, the assistant who took my X-rays and everything was great. She kept conversation with me the entire time and let me know what she was doing each step. If I got overwhelmed she would stop and let me breath. I had some cavities filled today and the dentist and his assistant went beyond to make sure I was comfortable the whole time. After the needle was injected my heart started racing very fast from adrenaline and it led to a small anxiety attack. The dentist lead me through breathing exercises to calm down and the assistant filled up a glove with water and tied it off and gave it to me to hold onto and shift my focus. They let me take as much time as I needed to calm down before the procedure. As we continued, they were both regularly checking in on me to make sure I was okay and they told me before starting that if I needed a break at any point then that was more than okay. I managed to survive the procedure with only a couple tears and I’m so happy with how I was treated. Compassionate, understanding, empathetic, caring and kind are some words I would use to describe these amazing people. They are helping me overcome my fears and that is sooo appreciated. I can not give enough thanks!!! (and the squishy glove was very helpful the whole time as it gave me something to fidget with) 😌
I've been a patient at Atlantis Dental for over 8 years. The only reason I will no longer be a patient is because I'm moving to a new city so I thought it was about time that I left my review! It's a wonderful practice with lovely staff and superb standard of care. I was someone who had MAJOR dental phobia as a result of previous traumatic experience. I credit Atlantis with helping me to overcome my phobia 1000%, they showed real care and understanding in their approach and would explain every action during treatment to ease any concerns. I no longer have any fear around receiving dental treatment, which is incredible, and as a result my teeth and gums are in the best shape they've ever been in!
I recommend Atlantis very highly!
My teeth hadn’t seen a dentist in over 10 years when I first walked in over 8 years ago. I know, gross. A really bad tooth ache finally forced my hand and I chose this place as it was close to home. Best decision ever!! I was treated with kindness, and understanding. No judgement for years of neglect. My dentist, Jason, was (and is) so kind and addressed all my concerns and then some. Since that first day, I have gone every six months for cleaning and check ups. All the hygienists and front staff are wonderful and caring. As soon as you step in to the office, you’re greeted with smiles and warmth. I do not hesitate to recommend this practice as they are as efficient as they are friendly. Thank you so much!!
I had such a lovely experience. Everyone was so friendly and made me feel so welcome and comfortable. Had a few good laughs as well.
