Mill Plain Dental Center

I had my first experience with Mill Plain Dental yesterday (Fri. Oct. 9^th), had to have a tooth pulled that had been causing me excruciating pain for 2.5 days. The office staff was all very nice and friendly. Dr. Jensen is one of the best dentists I have ever seen; the only time I have ever had an anesthetic shot with no pain, not even a pinch.
He thoroughly explained everything and did a great job.
I will definitely be seeing Dr. Jensen and the team again

Dentists have a bad rap. No one likes to schedule a visit to hear the whining screech of a drill or to have tartar scraped from their teeth. My daughter has always been a brave soul when it came to routine visits but when we moved up to WA, our trusted dentist was no longer an option. We took her to the first obvious choice… «Gentle Dental». What a complete misnomer! The staff was overbearing and lacked any likeness to gentleness.
We were referred to Mill Plain Dental by a family friend and received 5-​star care. The staff from reception to Dr. Mike are all truly wonderful. Our girl ended up having to have a root canal caused from a loose filling. In my experience, root canals are painful, lengthy and expensive. Not so on our visit. I am more than happy to recommend this dental office to anyone who may be leery from previous bad experiences. You will receive thoughtful consultation before a procedure is performed. You’ll receive an estimate of what the procedure will cost beforehand. And, you’ll receive quality dental care.

I am very leery of going to the dentist. I was referred to the office by my sister in law. Everyone was so friendly and nice. I was super happy to find a dentist I was comfortable with. The staff was amazing and friendly. They knew what they were doing and it showed! I was once asked by a dentist if I was an accountant because I was «very precise». Ha I sure am! This office got it precisely right. :-)

My Young daughter Megan was a patient of Dr. Mike ’ s prior to our move to Oregon almost 3 years ago. When she first went to their office Megan had a lot of anxiety, the staff made her feel very comfortable. Megan had been to his office for a hand full of visits over her few years as a patient & each visit she became more & more relaxed.
When Megan was 10 she was hit in the mouth durring a softball game. One of her big beautiful front teeth was broken in half. Megan was understandably scared & so was I. I called Dr. Mike on the after hours emergency # & he had just made it home from work. He said to meet him at the office in a half hour, he would head right back. Without any help Dr. Mike reattached the broken piece of tooth & it looked GREAT!
Now almost 3 years later Megan has established care with an office near where we live. The tooth that was fixed by Dr. Mike still looks AMAZING! Even in the x-​rays her tooth looks ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!!! Megan will be getting braces in a couple weeks and I was scared they would not be able to attach to the tooth that had been broken. The orthodontist had to look at the x-​rays closer because on first inspection she couldn’t tell that it had been broken: D They were VERY impressed with the work Dr. Mike did on Megan’s tooth!
THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!

I found good reviews and a special via Angie’s List. I am picky about dentists and I was very happy with my first visit. Emily was a great hygienist and I really appreciate them keeping overhead low so prices are affordable for times when you don’t have insurance. Some dental offices are packed with so much expensive gear that they have to charge more and find more work to cover the cost. Good basic dental care here.

I have to give this place a big round of applause. I hadn’t been into a dentist for 19 years (Yes, they are that scary to me) The entire staff made sure I was comfortable and they were very understanding which, I hadn’t truly expected anyone to be. They genuinely want to do what they can to help you. I appreciated the time they took taking care of me and that they did such a nice job. I really do recommend them even for people who don’t like going to the dentist. :)
