Dr. Pressling was very nice and very informative. I came in with a toothache because my typical provider couldn't see me for some time. I'm very glad I found Dr. Pressling. He was able to see me the same night I was looking for a dentist, and he ended up giving me an on-the-spot root canal. Since I had not had any larger dental procedures, I was very nervous about this and ended up Facetiming my mom for advice (I'm new to the area and haven't had to deal with a lot of health concerns on my own). Dr. Pressling hopped on the Facetime and walked myself and my mom through what he needed to do to my teeth. I was blown away by how nice everyone in the office was!! A potentially extremely daunting experience turned out okay because of those that work at Augusta Dental Center!

Great dentist. I have been his patient for more than 10 years, and he's always been absolutely excellent!

Found a last minute appointment (lucky!) for crown that needed to be re-cemented. Everything went smoothly. Staff and doctor were friendly, doctor seemed to know what he was doing, and the bill was more reasonable than expected. Can't complain! I'll be back.
October 31, 2021Damien V.Verified patient
I felt like I was with family and I felt good he is going to be my doctor from now on he was the only doctor they can contact when I needed a doctor on Saturday thank you so much and honestly he’s a good doctor
October 6, 2021Elizabeth V.Verified patient
My experience at Dr. Pressling's office was great! I was checked in and brought back right on time for my scheduled appointment. The doc has great bedside manner and made me feel totally comfortable. I don't typically get too nervous at the dentist's office, but I definitely knew I was in good hands. I had to have a root canal and it was one of the quickest and most efficiently done procedures I've had to date. Definitely would recommend him if you don't have well-established dental care.
September 11, 2021Ashley H.Verified patient
Pretty bad experience. Office ladies were nice, polite, and considerate. I will not be going back and will not be referring anyone.
August 30, 2021Daniel F.Verified patient
Dr. Pressling is no-nonsense and communicates very clearly which helped ease some of my dentist-visit anxiety. Priscilla is LOVELY and made me very comfortable during the visit. She did a great cleaning and x-rays, and she made sure to answer any questions I had.
July 24, 2021Kiley M.Verified patient
I was seen right away. Priscilla did my cleaning and she was amazing, I'd go back just for her. Dr. Pressling was efficient, friendly, and a clear communicator. Would definitely recommend!
July 23, 2021Alan M.Verified patient
Dr. P is a delight and my experience with him was fantastic. I had a new patient exam in which we discussed concerns, and he offered a quick relatively inexpensive solution to a tooth I wasn’t happy with cosmetically and he did the procedure right then and there in 10 mins. No need to schedule another appointment for it or additional unnecessary things. Best doctor of any type I’ve ever seen. His personality is so fun too and he made me feel very relaxed about the whole experience.
July 4, 2021Alissa F.Verified patient
Dr. Stefan is a very caring and experienced person. He is is not only solving your dental issue but taking time to listen to you and speak to you. You feel very welcome and in good hands with him. Furthermore, you can count on his reactivity if you have an emergency. No pain during and after my visits. I have found my dentist. Thank you!
June 16, 2021Jessica P.Verified patient
Everyone was so kind, and easy to work with! I really appreciated the way my care was prioritized - they took the time to make sure everything was good to go, and made it so easy to schedule my next appointment! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

As a first time patient, I found Dr. Pressling to be very welcoming and kind. I explained my problems and he immediately went to work assessing the situation. I ended up needing a root canal, and Dr. Pressling performed it right away and it only took about 20 mins. I would highly recommend Dr. Pressling if you're in pain and need immediate help
February 4, 2019Andrew F.Verified patient
Good dude!
January 5, 2018Cassandra F.Verified patient
You know, my visit with Dr. Pressling is mixed. He was super fast and efficient at what he did. On the other hand he didn't really take any time to talk to me about what I was there for and he was doing or what I should do after. Granted I took quite a while in their office because of an insurance mishap which was not the fault of the office woman at all. All I'm trying to say is, without exaggeration, I was in the chair and out of the chair with two teeth gone and gauze in mouth sent on my way in 19 minutes.

I arrived early and had a lovely conversation with the lovely lady at the front desk as i filled out my paperwork. I was then taken into the back by dental tech who was very sweet and made small talk as she prepared me for the dentist. Steven was great he was very professional and friendl i was relaxed right away. He took a few xrays and got right to what needed to be done. He informed what was going on and showed me on the xrays. He performed a root canal and it was pretty much painless and very quick. I will def be going back for a crown and also will more than likely go back for regular check ups as the entire practice was very friendly,relaxed, and very professional.
October 11, 2017Ryan B.Verified patient
impatient, does not anesthetize enough nor pre-treat the gums with spray so you don't feel the needle; insensitive during extraction even if you're jumping out of the chair. control issues?

Mr. Pressling and office always make the whole experience super comfortable. He is super fast and talented at what he does! Would highly recommend to anyone. Thank you!
May 24, 2016Amanda T.Verified patient
This was an amazing experience. I had really bad tooth pain 4 days before an international flight and the office squeezed me in on a Saturday...the day before the Dr.'s vacation. AMAZING! It was a busy day so the rating for the 30 minute wait time doesn't seem fair-I want to give 5 stars all around!
Got in the chair, numbed and 2 teeth pulled (1 being a wisdom) in 20 minutes. This man is a wonderful, caring dentist and the office staff is kind and helpful. I have HUGE fear of dental work and hadn't been to see any dentist in an embarrassing amount of years and I felt completely at ease. I cannot express how grateful I am and how much I recommend this dental practice to anyone and everyone!
More than 1 year agoSarah D.Verified patient
He seemed very knowledgeable, I could tell he really cares about his patients overall well being. Very friendly, I would absolutely recommended him.
December 2, 2014Jeremy D.Verified patient
He is a very nice dentist and really friendly and funny ! Which is rare for a dentist. I would reccommend him, but I think he is a dentist more for rich people and the bourgeois class. If you are not rich, maybe try another dentist.

As far as dentists go, Dr. Pressling is the unicorn, and I have found him! He not only is very personable, he is also just a really great dentist who works fast and everything was pretty painless. And by fast I mean 5 minute fillings. Whaaaat?? He's great!

Dr. Steven Pressling, DDS is the "Best" dentist. I looked forward to my visit because I know I'm going to get the best service/care from Dr. Pressling & his staffs.
November 15, 2013Theresa L.Verified patient
My husband was in desperate need of emergency dental care and unbeknownst to me, he was absolutely terrified of going to the dentist. So when he called and asked me to find him a dentist ASAP and also accompany him, I knew it was serious. I used ZocDoc to find a provider that fulfilled three main requirements. The first, they needed to accept our dental insurance, next, they had to be able to take an emergency appointment for that evening and lastly, they needed to have great reviews (my husband was already dreading this, the last thing I needed was to take him to an office with unfriendly staff and an unsympathetic doctor). Cue the choir of angels and the beaming ray light that flashed directly on Dr. Pressling’s listing. Honestly, it wasn’t quite that dramatic, but for anyone who knows how tough it is to find your ‘top five guys’ (1- General Practitioner 2- Trainer, 3- Mechanic, 4- Hair Stylist, and 5- Dentist --- not necessarily in that order ?) knows that when you find a good one, you need to keep ‘em! So, basically, what I’m trying to get across is, Dr. Pressling is one of those good ones. He’s so nice, very down to earth and nonjudgmental, and overall, a fantastic doctor who knows his stuff! In addition to his quality work, a great bonus to visiting Dr. Pressling is his office staff; they’re awesome! They’re knowledgeable in regard to both your actual dental services and your insurance/billing issues; they’re very friendly and seem to genuinely care about you and your dental needs. All in all, what started off as a very unpleasant situation became a great experience that helped my husband begin to face his dental fears and helped us find our new, permanent Dentist!
P.s. I forgot to mention two things, 1) Dr. Pressling and his staff allowed me to stay in the room during the procedure which was a condition my husband set before we made the appointment and 2) the day after the emergency wisdom teeth pulling (eek- 3 total), Dr. Pressling personally called to check up on him/us to see how things were healing and if there were any side effects to the medication. This was Dr. Pressling personally... if that isn’t superior service and a sign that he really cares, I don’t know what is!

I came in because of problems after visiting another dentist and he said he knew exactly what I was talking about and explained what would help and actually did it (took out old filling and replaced it w a temp medicated one). So nice and affordable, and is working w me to get things done before January when my insurance ends. So happy I found him!
