I tried this place for the first time and I am pleased with their services. Their friendly staff made feel comfortable since the beginning. I came here for an emergency and I was able to get an appointment the same day. I got my first examination and x-rays done for free, as stated on their website. I ended up having two of my wisdom teeth removed, one of which was difficult to remove because of my dense bones. So it took a little longer than usual. And I must confess I was a little nervous because I didn't know the kind of work this dentist had done in the past. There were so little reviews on the internet about him. But doctor Zhou did a great job, despite the challenge. I didn't have too much pain afterwards, but I took pain killers the first night, just in case. The next day I didn't have any pain. Following the doctor's instructions helped me for a fast recovery. It's been five days and I'm almost back to normal.
I know visiting a dentist is not fun for anyone, but with the right hands doing the job, you can be relieved that you'll be fine if you do your part following the doctor's instructions. I will definitely be back to this place and I recommend it for anyone. Their prices are also reasonable, even for people without insurance.

What are dental fillings?
A tooth filling is a restorative treatment that repairs a tooth that has been damaged by decay or minor fractures. When getting a filling, your dentist will remove any decay in your tooth and then fill the leftover space with either composite resin, glass ionomer or amalgam. This restores the shape, function and strength of your tooth while helping to minimize any discomfort or sensitivity.
