Throw away all pre-conceived notions about your experiences with the dentist! Dr. Mandarine, Fico, and the entire front office staff TRULY make this an enjoyable experience. He approaches dental care as a true partnership, always making suggestions with compassion and thoughtfulness, versus judgement about imperfect dental habits. He is patient and encouraging, and fosters a lively and friendly environment throughout the office. He recently restored some bonding on my front teeth, which had shown some wear after nearly 15 years. I was nervous about the work, as I wanted to be sure my smile didn’t change — I wanted to keep the natural look of it, even with slight imperfections. Dr. Mandarine’s work was just beautiful, from a technical perspective; but more than that, he was attentive to my requests around the work and supportive of my vision. I don’t think you could find a better dental practice in the area. Recommended, without any reservations.
