Happy Stories from Parents

We had a very good experience with Dr. Dachman and his dental team! They were incredibly responsive and provided exceptional care for my daughter. Overall, I couldn't be happier with the care we received; it was truly a five-star experience! Ashley
We had an emergency tooth situation with my son and Dr. Dachman was kind enough to come in on his day off and take a look at him to make sure he was okay and go over treatment options. He put my mind at ease and explained everything clearly. A.P.
The hygienists and assistants were so kind to my kids and made them feel comfortable. One son has major anxiety (he’s been to the ER a number of times and had surgery) and they helped him feel confident and he had no problems!!! Kourtney
