Patrick S Foley, DDS

Went to this office the other day. Saw the other dentist (not Dr. Foley). I got there 15 minutes early to do the paper work. Was then greeted by my dentist. There were a lot of xrays and pictures (just shows they REALLY look at your teeth). The examination and cleaning was about an hour, and it was all done by my dentist. I think this was because it was my first visit but still, it was great to have the dentist show me so much attention and make me a priority. Not to mention the office was clean too. Already scheduled my dentist appointment for 6 months. Definitely coming here again. Thank you!

Who’d believe that one could actually rhapsodize warmly over a dental appointment? On average, at best, these twice yearly encounters are tolerated, at worst, a source of dread. But I’ve made the best decision ever in a tooth sort of sense by making a care switch to Foley and company.
My aging teeth are a source of some angst to me. I’m the sort of person who spends more than a little time inspecting and flossing same, noting cracks in canines and gums heading south. I never quite trusted my last dentist, Dr. Indifferent, to fill me in on the future of my sexagenarian mouthful. «You should probably see an oral surgeon for a gum graft,» he’d tell me. «Is it urgent?» I’d reply. «Well,» he’d shrug on his way out the door, «it’s up to you.»
Foley, however, is a doc of a different demeanor. He took my x-​rays, then threw the images up on a large computer screen in disconcerting detail. Then, I swear!, we went over this interior landscape TOOTH BY TOOTH! No ding left undefined, even the bone in my jaw analyzed for its depth. Fortunately the news was good – yeah the gums were going but the roots were strong.
As good as the news was the bill at the end. An hour and a half in the chair between hygienist cleaning and dental exam plus x-​rays was just half what I’d spent at Dr. I’s office for a cleaning and a drive-​by exam.
I strongly recommend Dr. Foley’s services!
