 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very modern clinic with great infrastructure. The X-ray setup is impressive they take so many photos and scans you start wondering if you accidentally signed up for a Colgate commercial. Maribelle is a great dentist, incredibly gentle, to the point I barely felt a thing.

Jokes aside, everything feels thorough, professional, and well explained. Solid experience.
