I was a little nervous when my previous dentist in Mesa sold his business, but after being Dr. Nia’s patient for a couple of years now all my fears have gone away. He is very thorough in helping you understand every dental procedure. Appointments are easy to make around my work schedule. I never have to wait once I get there, and the staff is very personal. They treat you well. It’s always easy at this place because they offer the doctors network program, which makes it much more affordable to get dental work done compared to billing and other dental insurance in Mesa, AZ, which can sometimes be a headache. I really love this dentist in Mesa, and I recommend him to everyone.

I have been going to Dr. Kunthara for 3 years, and I don’t mind the extra drive from Phoenix, because that’s how great she is. She doesn’t treat you as just a patient, but rather a friend, and listens to your opinions about the health of your mouth and teeth. She still does training for herself and her staff to make sure they always have updated information, which keeps her office at the top of its game. No two visits are ever the same, as the team continues to learn and grow as dental professionals in Mesa, AZ. The service is great and everyone is very kind. Dr. Kunthara even gives her personal cell phone number for after-hours. If I ever have a dental emergency I can call her at any time. Anyone who needs a dentist or is looking for a change should come here.

My family has been going to Able Dental for about 2 years now, and we truly love it. As someone who used to work for a dentist in Phoenix, I feel as though I have enough knowledge to make an educated recommendation, and I would give this place 6 stars if I could. We have seen multiple dentists and hygienists here, and while they’re all wonderful I have to give Dr. Muscato a particular shout out, she rocks. Every visit is awesome, they truly take care of their patients here. (Even when my 8 year old son was throwing a fit). All of the staff are easy to talk to and professional. They have the latest technology to ensure you’re getting the best dental care. We never have to wait long in the waiting room, they’re very punctual. Their staff makes billing easy, even when we had questions regarding the dental plan. I can’t imagine going anywhere else.

By far, Thomas & Thomas Dental has the best dental team ever! The receptionist is so sweet and charming, and I never felt awkward like I sometimes do at the dentist. They made me laugh by cracking jokes as they cleaned my teeth. Dr. Thomas was incredible and so was his assistant. If you live in Phoenix, trust them with your teeth. Plus, the office is beautiful!

My wife and I moved to Phoenix about a year ago, and we were nervous about finding a good dentist near me. We’ve tried three different places, but none of them were satisfactory. But I had a dental emergency in Phoenix a couple weeks ago. I lost my crown and after doing a bit of research decided to go to Dr. Kulkarni. I only had to go in once for her to get the crown completely finished. There was almost no pain, the only thing that hurt a little bit was the novocaine needle. The crown looks great. Anyone needing awesome dental work done should come here.

I had two rotten teeth that needed to be extracted, and Dr. Pulkrabek at Family & Cosmetic Dental in Phoenix, AZ did such a great job. Except for the slight pinch from the numbing shot, I felt absolutely no pain during the procedure and little to no pain while I was healing. The staff was welcoming and efficient. Plus, the dentist office is the most beautiful office I’ve ever seen!

Phenomenal experience at Adrian Pulkrabek DDS in Glendale!!! My two kids had appointments and were both done in under an hour. They were super patient, ensuring my kids were okay, and we didn’t have to wait long to be seen. They’re so accommodating and obviously very good at their jobs. Two thumbs up for Dr. Pulkrabek!

Went in for a teeth cleaning at Copper Star Dentistry the other day. Dr. Owens listened to my concerns and was very knowledgeable. I look forward to having him as my permanent dentist in Peoria, AZ. He’s trustworthy, I don’t think she would ever try to get me to pay for services I didn’t really need, unlike other dentists I’ve been too. Best dentist in Peoria, I’ve already recommended all my friends.

From a young age, Dr. Eric Wendelschafer was instilled with a strong work ethic, growing up in a family deeply rooted in the commercial construction industry. He spent much of his youth working alongside his family, learning the satisfaction of hands-on work and the value of dedication and craftsmanship.

Dr. Wendelschafer brings this same commitment and work ethic to his role as the owner and sole dentist at Great Smiles Dental Care in Surprise, a practice he has led since 2013. Motivated by his passion for improving patients' health and quality of life through exceptional dental care, he strives to offer high-quality services at a fair price. He is honored to serve the oral health needs of the community and is committed to delivering the best possible care to each patient who walks through the door.

Dr. Wendelschafer’s interest in dentistry was sparked during high school when he had the opportunity to shadow oral surgeons his mother worked for. It was then that he realized he wanted to pursue a career in dentistry. He never shied away from a challenge. As a student athlete, he earned a track scholarship while balancing the demands of studying, training, and working part-time installing metal roof panels in the Arizona heat. His determination led him to pursue a degree at the Arizona School of Dentistry & Oral Health, where he graduated and then gained practical experience in a corporate dental setting in Mesa.

In time, Dr. Wendelschafer took over at Great Smiles Dental Care when the previous doctor retired, and he has since been dedicated to providing the communities of Surprise, Sun City, and beyond with healthy, beautiful smiles. He is passionate about helping his patients achieve their goals of good oral health and a fulfilling life through personalized, quality dental care. Dr. Wendelschafer is excited to welcome new patients to his practice and looks forward to working with each one to achieve lasting dental health.

I have been seeing Dr. Ghandhi at Dentistry at Greenway for a while now. I am very satisfied with this practice. They must give employees a personality test before hiring them because everyone working there is so personable and friendly. I wouldn't think of going anywhere else. The office is nice and clean and all of the rooms have up-to-date equipment. I’ve had emergencies from time to time and they always find a way to fit me in. I've never had to wait very long, either. I highly recommend this practice if you’re looking for a dentist in the Surprise area.
