Went for a routine checkup and cleaning. Very professional and friendly staff, and I very much appreciated that the doctor explains everything he says and uses a mirror to show you the parts of your mouth he’s making any diagnoses based on. Great visit!

It was great. I felt comfortable and in good hands. Thank you!
Over charges and wait is too long.
Dr. Harding was quick, competent, and helped me with how to have better habits at home. His administrative staff was friendly and accommodating. However, the dental hygienist I had did not fully clean my mouth, several techniques she used were way more uncomfortable than the dentist office norm, and she did not have a very good bedside manner.

From when I first walked through the dentist office door to when I left, the utmost professionalism and kindness was displayed. I was terrified walking into Doctor Harding's office because I hadn't since a dentist in years. However, he pacified my fears and gave me a firm and kind advice on how to get my teeth back into shape and I am grateful.

Wonderful and down to earth Doctor
Verified patient
It was very educational. He and the hygienist answered the WHY for the necessity of the treatment choices. I was allowed to ask all kinds of questions. Thorough exam! I mean thorough!
Verified patient
Love Dr Harding and his staff! His exam was comprehensive and thorough - he immediately zeroed in on both major and minor problems (including some that were overlooked or dismissed by a dentist I saw once but didn't return to because of her cursory exam and dismissal of some dental issues). Also love the fact that Dr. Harding is certified in a number of specialties, including prosthodontics and periodontics, which means that I won't need to see multiple specialists. Given all the issues Dr Harding identified on this first visit, I was expecting a hefty price tag to my preliminary treatment plan - but I was pleasantly surprised to find out that the cost was reasonable and most of it is covered by my insurance. I know that there are more expensive treatments ahead, but I feel confident that I'm in good hands with Dr. Harding.
Verified patient
I did not have the opportunity to receive treatment from Dr. Harding specifically, since it was only a consultation and initial x-ray appointment, but the physician who treated me was very nice. She was genuinely helpful and wanted to teach me as much as I could handle. Since this was my first dentist appointment, I was certainly nervous, but she was cognizant of this and took great care of me. The staff members were nice as well and honest about my treatment options, in regards to pricing and methodology, so that was a bonus too. I would recommend this office to anyone in Prince George's County, especially if you've never received dental treatment in the past.
Verified patient
Amazing doctor. Initially, I was nervous but Dr. Harding put my anxiety and fear to rest and he made feel like smiling for the whole day.
Verified patient

Verified patient
Great, informative and listener.
Verified patient
If your looking for the best! He is that! And he's staff really cares about the way you're beings treated! I got love for you all! Thank you and God bless
Verified patient
I chose this dentist because he had good reviews on zocdoc but after my appointments and receiving an unexpected expensive bill in the mail, I'm a bit dissatisfied. I had no idea that he charged so much for fillings and even with good insurance, it's not covered. He also tried to sell Invisalign to me even though I've never been told I needed something like that by other dentists. I definitely got a weird car salesman vibe from him. He's not a terrible dentist but his office should let their patients know that they'll probably end up with a huge bill.
Verified patient
It was very cordial and professional.
Verified patient
Dr. Harding and his support staff took time to facilitate a positive experience in spite of the difficult root canal procedure. One of the challenging components was my fear of dentistry, but Dr. Harding not only talked to me, he listened. He accommodated my requests and he shared the steps and X-rays to help me understand what was happening. His dental assistant, Rick, also worked to make me feel comfortable. As a small child, I was slapped by a dentist-- a step allowed then. Later in life, I have had reactions to medication used for oral surgery and once, when a needle hit a nerve, was unable to open my mouth without manually doing so for neatly one week. All of these experiences heighten my anxiety when I meet a new dentist. I am thankful for the recommendation to meet Dr. George Harding and his staff.
