This was the BEST dentist office I had ever been in. It was absolutely wonderful. The people was very pleasant. Very nice. Was very concerned about your comfort and your well-being. They could hold an intelligent conversation with you. Didn't make you feel less than it was. Definitely a one-of-a-kind experience for me. I would advise every single person that I know to go to this dentistry. They are very very welcoming. You will not have a problem in going back to these people. The only sad part about it is I can only give five stars. Love these people! I am so glad that I chose them.

I’ve been a patient with dr. Elrod for 20 plus years. Hands down the best dentist in the country! All the work I’ve had done is the best quality and lasts. I still have some CEREC that have lasted over 20 years. This is the only dentist I’ve been to that I’m actually excited to go to.

Above and beyond exceptional service!! The office is stunning and the staff are exceptional. I'm definitely appreciative of the tour and gift! Very friendly and knowledgeable. They took their time and didn't make me feel like just another patient. Most importantly, I felt comfortable and heard. My only regret is not becoming a new patient sooner. Never had an experience like that at a dental office before! Thank you DDS!

Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Technology

How does your technology improve my dental experience?
Our technology makes your care more precise, efficient, and comfortable. Advanced imaging, AI analysis, and bacteria detection help diagnose problems early. Treatment-based systems improve precision, reduce recovery times, and create better-fitting restorations. Together, this technology gives you a more pleasant experience and helps maintain your long-term oral health.
How do you plan dental implant procedures?
We use Astra implants with SICAT Implant Dental Software for fully customized planning. This process includes 3-D imaging from the Axeos cone beam CT scanner for precise placement. Our technology helps us create stable and natural-looking implant restorations while reducing the risk of complications and improving your long-term results.
What role do lasers play in dentistry?
Laser systems like the SOL Diode and Fotona LightWalker allow for exact, minimally invasive treatment. They can be used for hard and soft tissue reshaping, reducing bacteria, conservative decay repair, and other procedures. These lasers reduce discomfort, speed healing, and help preserve healthy tissue for a better treatment experience.
