Dr. Henry Bodde and his dental assistant Noe WERE AMAZINGGGGGGGGGG. I went in knowing my own diagnosis of my wisdom tooth which was broke off on the left side. They both made me feel sooooooo comfortable, and meet my needs. HB & Noe I want to ALWAYS see when I come for my visits. It was a little pressure because my teeth were being stubborn….lol. But again they both assured me. I’m going to get through it and I did. Road to recovery for the last couple of days. I just want regular food! But I have to wait until i entirely heal. I recommend them both if you’re looking for a dentist. Even the front desk staff Alex was nice & Cristal. It really does feel like home there. Thank you, thank you, thank youuuuuu again Dr. HB & Noe. 10 star button >>>>>>>>>>

Appointment at 10:00 AM for tooth extraction. Professional friendly service, I was in my truck on my way home 10:45 AM with a tooth in my pocket (for the tooth fairy). Minimal pain experienced during and after the procedure. I highly recommend Dr. Bodde and his team.
