What I like most about Dr. Uhrich is that he takes the time to EXPLAIN what he is doing. For example - he shows you the xrays and points out the problem areas and what needs to be done to correct the situation. He continues his narrative occassionally during the treatment - not too much - but just enough to keep you informed. I would recommend Dr. Uhrich without hesitation.

I had two crowns installed painfree. Everyone in the office is very helpful and polite. Dr. Urich is the best dentist and even when I moved out of the area, I continued to take the drive and see Dr. Urich for 10 years.

More about Dr. Joseph Uhrich, DDS
My partner, Dr. Uhrich and I began practicing at our office in 1979. We are capable of providing most dental services at one location. No bouncing from specialist to specialist. Two dentists in group practice enables us to give our patients the advantage of having one of the doctors always available if you need us. It also has the large advantage of having two doctors reviewing your case if it becomes necessary.

February 3, 2016George C.Verified patient
I think so highly of Dr. Uhrich that I referred a fellow coworker to him. today. I have been with Dr. Uhrich since 1985 or 1986. That is thirty years. He is the best, the very best.
I let my teeth go before I met him at age forty-two. I was so afraid of dentists that I never went to one in decades. One of the first things he told me, was that if I have a dentist and it hurts. You have the wrong dentist. I went there to have all my teeth removed. he again advised me to save as many as I can, and never just pull your teeth. In all that time, I think I have lost maybe one or maybe two. I do not recall. It could be just one.
Last year I went for something and was advised that I may need a root canal. I thought, OH My God. Those are suppose to be horrific. I also had to have some other work done. The next week or so I happened to say at the end of my appointment, What did you do today? He said a root canal. that must have been a joke, because I do not think I even had Novocain. Maybe I am delusional, but I do not think I got a shot. Which is why I could not believe that I had a root canal.
He also always has the latest most modern technology in his equipment. And he knows his science and stays abreast of it as well. Several weeks ago he told me why I am short of breath with my C.O.P.D. In twenty-five years no Pulmonary doctor explained it that well.

I was very nervous about having a dental procedure, not only did Dr. Uhrich explain to me exactly what he was doing but he also assured me the pain level would be minimal and he would monitor my comfort throughout the procedure. I was very anxious prior to the visit and as soon as we were done talking I was able to
Relax before we got started. Both hygienists who stopped in to check on me and set up the room were also very polite and reassuring of my feelings. I truly feel so much better after this experience! Thank you Dr. Uhrich!!
December 28, 2015Andrea F.Verified patient
Dr. Uhrich has been my dentist for well over 30 years. He is a perfectionist at his work. His partner in the practice is Dr. Kaplan. He too is a perfectionist. I would not trade them for anyone in the field of dentistry. They are the best!

I enjoy Dr. Uhrich's sense of humor and "chairside" manner. He is always very professional but not stuffy. The office is very current with equipment, etc. I also enjoy the other people in the office. I have referred Dr. Uhrich to others and they are now patients. I received a plant delivered to my door for doing above which I thought was great.
November 19, 2015Sharon H.Verified patient
He's a great dentist! And a very nice person too
October 17, 2015Sue H.Verified patient
I am 62 yrs old, and I must say Dr. Uhrich is the finest Dentist I have ever seen. Dr. Uhrich is knowledgeable to the latest dental techniques, extremely professional, friendly and has compassion for his patients. All the other employees are extremely friendly, they go above and beyond to see you are cared for. When I go there I feel like I am seeing family without the weird uncle that every family has. College Drive Dental has all the latest equipment to give you the best care possible. Dr. Kaplan is very nice and is also an excellent dentist. You will be happy that you went to College Drive Dental.
October 5, 2015James L.Verified patient
Dr. Uhrich performed a Root Canal on me due to my molar's nerve had passed it's useful life. He explained what he would be doing and with the use of the latest and greatest equipment I can say it went extremely well and virtually painless. Dr. Uhrich had given me a prescription for some pain med’s which I took as soon as I got home so they would kick in before the anesthetic wore off. Do to the trauma to the tooth I must say my jaw was sore, which can only be expected. The med’s worked fine and took the edge off. Today is the next morning I am feeling fine. Everyone at College Drive Dental are so nice. You cannot find better Dentists or nicer professional people anywhere .

I have been going to Dr. Urich for 10 years now. He capped six of my front teeth and they look wonderful. It was a really scary procedure for me, but he did a wonderful job and I have a wonderful smile. He continues to take great care of my teeth. He team is very nice and they are always very proficient. Best dentist... if I only found him 30 years ago, I probably wouldn't need a dentist, haha.
