Dr. Patel is genuinely the most gentle caring provider i’ve ever been seen by. She takes her time to calmly explain everything to me and always answers all my questions. She can recognize when I am anxious / scared and provides comforting words or a moment to breathe during the procedures. She might also be the best anesthesia deliverers ever, don’t ever see or feel the needle, perfect precision. She’s the best, I would travel across the country to see her!

Dently is officially my go-to dentist’s office for teeth whitening, Invisalign, and any other dental needs. From the moment you walk in, Rachelle at the front desk makes you feel welcome—always warm, friendly, and stylish in her signature Supreme gear.
Lulja the Dental Assistant, was incredibly gentle and meticulous during my whitening treatment. She patiently explained every step, checked in often to make sure I was comfortable, and the results were outstanding.
Dr. Patel was personable, knowledgeable, and kind—exactly the kind of dentist you want looking after your smile. And I’m so glad they’ve built a team that truly cares about patient experience.
I can’t wait to recommend all my friends here. If you’re looking for pearly whites and an amazing dental experience, stop by Dently and tell them Millie sent you. Trust me—you won’t be disappointed!
