“I went to the office to have a panoramic x. Ray done to show update on my implant healing
I was brought into the office immediately everyone was very friendly and courteous ”

“Best dentist I have ever been to in terms of bedside manner and timeliness. I have only ever had cleanings so I can't speak to how well more complicated procedures are done. Plus, if you ask, he sometimes will give you extra heads for an electric toothbrush for free if he has any laying around.”

January 23, 2022Ionez R.Verified patient
I was looking for a new dentist having been frustrated by the last clinic which seemed more like a revolving door practice with new dentists every other visit. Dr. Ames owns his practice and clearly takes pride in serving our community. Though all I had today was the initial consultation with cleaning/X-rays I feel confident in Dr. Ames and am looking forward to having him as my dentist moving forward.

February 20, 2020A P.Verified patient
Overall visit was good, the receptionist have no kind of enthusiasm at all, she’s very dismissive, way to into her phone to be attentive, don’t smile ask can she help or anything or at least that was our experience today on our first visit there. The Dr and his assistant on the other hand are very welcoming and nice and did great work. Because of the great hospitality of the Dr we are willing to go back
More than 1 year agoEbony G.Verified patient
Ames DDS was very cool, I needed a emergency root canal, we talked about all options in a professional manner, this visit didn’t feel like my regular dentist visit where she sits me down, performs and just boots you out the office for the next patient like some kind of Dental Mill. I highly recommend this dentist

Stuff is friendly,
I have been in this doctor last year and he cleaned my teeth well,
But this year I went to have dental cleaning
And he didn't clean my teeth well at all!
He was in rush ,I don't recommend anyone to go there for dental cleaning
