20 Best Dental Hygiene Programs In Reno, NV (2022 Updated)

(For reference, I am a first-generation college student, have a learning disability, and a physical disability.) TMCC sets students up for success. I have had a very positive experience both as a student and working for the school. I will be finishing a dual-degree sooner than expected. Most of the professors are great, and everyone in the humanities department is amazing. Most of the staff is very professional and able to well-inform students of what classes to take and what services may benefit them. On top of this, the school also offers free tutoring and mental health services. As a first-generation college student, I feel TMCC has helped me at every step of the way to succeed. With only 8 classes left to take, I still have a cumulative GPA of 4.0 despite doing relatively poorly in high school. As long as you put in your best effort, teachers will do everything possible to help you succeed. If you do not put any effort in and expect a handout, then it will be extremely difficult to succeed. If you attend this school make sure to take advantage of any and all resources as well as putting in your own effort… you will not regret it. I recommend TMCC to anyone and everyone.Rove Plant Eater

This is a tremendous school with a caring and compassionate staff and faculty. This school has afforded me so many opportunities that I wouldn't have otherwise received without them. When I got to Reno, I was homeless. I arrived with two suitcases and less than $100 in the bank. I was staying with a friend and making very little money. I found myself in a situation where I worked hard labor job after hard labor job, trapped in a vicious cycle of injury and poverty and no clear view of how to exit my situation. In the month of December 2014, I walked into the offices at TMCC. In less than a year, I have found employment, I'm less than a year from finishing my degree and I am a Dean's list student. I had it in my head that I wanted to succeed and I was fortunate that this school wanted to help me to do exactly that. The teachers were compassionate and patient. The staff was courteous and helpful. I owe a great deal to this school because it has taught me more than academics. It taught me to be a better person.Brandon Canty

Don't listen to the bad reviews, everybody has a different experience and different perceptions. Ive taken at least 20+ classes over 12 years, I love tmcc. It's a good community college in every way. I attended here on and off from 1999-2012. I learned how to teach step aerobics from the greatest fitness instructor imo Verna Lewis. I took many general ed classes as well as a few paralegal courses and a ton of fitness classes as well. The campus is beautiful, many bathrooms with free sanitary napkins if needed, the vending machines are reasonably priced. The classes are very fair priced. It's a wonderful school and a WAY better option then a vocational school. eg: Realtor school online vocational school $600+, Tmcc Realtor program $50-100.Rachela Reno Rocks

It's so sad to say but the speech department is a hot mess right now. There are really good teachers, but there's also really horrible teachers. I wanted to love this school because it's the only school here in Las Vegas that offers a degree in speech pathology. But after having terrible teachers like Christy Fleck, I feel like dropping out. It's not even that the material is hard, it's that the instructor herself does not know how to teach. How can you succeed in a school where the instructors put information on tests that aren't covered in the textbook, class, or modules? How can you succeed in school and learn from your mistakes when professors don't give you feedback on assignments until LITERALLY the last day of school, and have assignments that build off of each other. I want to love this school because there are really great teachers here, but the horrible teachers really mess it up for everyone else. This school has a lot of organization issues and have corruption issues; they all cover each others butts. They don't look for the student's best interests and that to me is enough to not want to come here anymore.Addhiliz Londono

Nevada State College makes me feel welcome. Although relaxed and open, the long term goal seems to be prevalent in everyone's mind: to help the students grow, and by extension the school. There are always opportunities to be had, and there are great people willing to guide you to them as long as you seek them. I'm so glad I get to be here and be one of the people to play a tiny role in the future of an institution that shows great promise. I can't wait to see what the future brings!Melanie Croft

Nevada State College has been a great school to me. It's a growing school so we may not have all the amenities a big university does, but we are getting there. The professors are great and approachable so long as the student is willing to learn. Be warned, it is competitive, especially those who plan on entering the nursing program. Its a competitive industry and can you blame them if they want to weed out those that do not have what it takes to succeed in the program?Diana Kuan

Enrolling in classes at Career College of Nevada (CCNN) was the best decision I have made in my entire life, and it could be yours also. I followed my dreams, graduated, and landed a job paying $20 an hour to start. The instructors at the school are knowledgeable and will do whatever is necessary to assist students in learning, point out additional resources, and provide tips and stories gleaned from working in the field themselves. The administrative staff at the school also assists students and graduates in keeping administrative and financial things in order. The school also provides free attendance to graduates who want to re-attend certain courses to refresh their memories, prepare for certification exams, or pick up any new information to keep up with changes in the field you graduate in. In addition, the job placement staff are there for you when you begin job searching, whether you are in school, have graduated, or are looking for a job change. You will also have the opportunity to make friends and make priceless contacts with professionals in your field of study. I highly recommend CCNN to those interested in the fields of study they offer. Study hard, work hard, and follow your dreams.Suzanne Brunette

I moved to Nevada to start a "new life" I had very little self-esteem and decided to go to school at Career College of Northern Nevada. This was the best decision I have ever made. At this school I met some really great people especially the teachers! I got really good grades, remained on the honor roll the entire time and when i graduated I was very concerned about being able to find a job because of a lack of self-esteem. I had little faith in myself but Placement was always there guiding me and encouraging me to just try. I received a call a few months after I graduated and was told that my teachers recommended me for a job in Reno at Specialty Health Clinic. I came in the day before my interview to prepare myself a little. I was soooo nervous. I went to my interview and the next day I got the call that I got the job!!! This was the most exciting news that I had received in a really long time! Thanks so much to everyone at Career College of Northern Nevada. You guys are awesome!!!!!Shannan Rose

After several years working jobs with limited mobility I decided to start looking at going back to school. In Northern Nevada there are several options and paths that you can take to further your education. Most of these are full time educational institutions with varied prerequisites that will not apply in your chosen career path. The first day I submitted a request for information Nicole Brand, one of the admissions representatives gave me a call. She has made the process of enrolling seamless and goes the extra mile to make sure you either get credit for prior education or offers test out options for skills that I already have. May still be a week out from starting classes, but after having attended 5 plus schools over the years I am truly excited to be starting at CCNN.troy walters

This is a long-delayed review but finally I got to it. We are so grateful to have found this dental office for our family’s dental needs when we moved to this area half year ago. The first impression we had about the office was it offers a well kept waiting area for patients with some kid’s friendly gadgets to help keeping young ones occupied when needed. Every office staff, assistant and hygienist works there is VERY friendly and ready to assist on every visit we had so far. Both doctors are so friendly, professional, and patient. I really appreciate Dr. Jackie taking her time communicating with young patients about what will be done before hands and providing us parents with the best option possible for the child and also economical! Our four children age from seven to seventeen immediately loved Dr. Jackie after our first visit and wanted to know when their next appointments would be! Recently one of my kids’ filling fell out. My husband took him along with his appointment hoping to save a trip. Yep! The problem was taken care of without a question in one trip! Thank you so much, Alford Dentistry! Wish you and your family a blessed New Year and your office will be blessings to every family you serve in 2022!Yanzimama Chen

This is my favorite dentist I've ever been to! It's a family-owned practice, and from my very first appointment I felt welcomed like I was part of their family too. They listen to your needs and concerns and go above and beyond to make sure you're as comfortable as possible. My cleanings here were gentle but very thorough, which I appreciate with my sensitive gums. Dr. Alford is also tech-savvy, using a very cool camera setup to get detailed close-up images of spots he wants to keep an eye on. Other dentists might ask you questions when your mouth is full of tools and toothpaste, but here they will give you short breaks to have a conversation. There's also always something interesting on the overhead TVs. During my first appointment it was the Great British Bake-off, one of my favorite calming and relaxing shows. One of the sad parts of moving out of state (apart from leaving friends and family behind) is that I won't be able to keep going here for my dental care. This is a wonderful dental practice and I will definitely miss it.Justin Cardoza

Excellent experience! This was easily the most peaceful part of my day. It was my 1st visit to Alford Pediatric & General Dentistry and I was greeted with positive energy, smiles and a few friendly jokes. I like smiles and I love jokes. It had been so long since I'd been to a dentist, they actually take x-rays totally different now. That process is now what we would call – quick! Ashley is awesome!! Friendly, witty and funny. It might sound strange to you reading this but – We had a great time cracking up and laughing while she cleaned my teeth. I later met Dr. Alford for the evaluation and he explained things in a way a dentist had never explained or spoke of before. Talking to me and not AT me. Much appreciated Doc. We were briefly interrupted by his wife, also Dr. Alford. Great job you guys! You have put together a great team. Customers can feel the warmth, love and camaraderie just sitting in the lobby; I certainly did!Mr. Chambers

I gave this dentist a last chance. Had to remind them to send my antibiotic over to the pharmacy they were more interested in letting me know how much the next procedure was going to cost then making sure I felt better during the wait. My last root canal was soo excruciating I had to go back to get my mouth numbed again. I’ve never had worse pain after a root canal than before it. Office staff is extremely nice however and it’s not their fault.Rhiannon Leigh

Just had my initial new patient exam and prophy. I am extremely happy with my experience at de Bruin Dental. My hygienist, Niki was professional, competent, and very friendly; the best cleaning I've had in awhile. Dr. de Bruin is not only professional but also very easy to talk to. His total focus was on his patient. He is patient and listened to my concerns. I would give this office 10 stars if I could.Jackie Benham

Had my teeth cleaned today and Patsy was the hygienist. She did a great job- very thorough, talked through what she was doing, what she found and was extremely professional and informative. Great experience as always at DeBruin Dental Center! Patient for 9+ years!Craig Kugler

Absolutely the most attentive, kind, and dedicated staff. Reception is always on top of everything from insurance, to scheduling, and going a little extra with detail. The hygienist is very professional, detail oriented and an all around great person. Dr. Morgan is professional, and very involved with his patients and staff. My favorite aspect, is that I get full attention to detail. I never feel rushed or that the cleaning was too quickly completed. And I always leave knowing my smile is brighter! Thank youmrbinreno

Worst experience at the dentist. They lied to me and told me I needed a crown, for a hairline crack. During the numbing process, the Dentist hit a vein in my cheek, and it swelled up immediately. My cheek still looks like I have a golf ball stuck in it, and now I'm looking for an oral surgeon to fix my face. As I was leaving Kim began cursing at me telling me i was the worst patient (for crying) Absolutely disgusting. No one deserves to be treated like that.Reno Life

Great staff, great facility, great service. Not much more that you could ask for! Brigitte is fantastic to work with, and they are very flexible with any scheduling challenges. They also adhere to strict health protocols around COVID, while still streamlining the process to make it as easy as possible to get you in and out quickly and safely. The hygienists are awesome and Dr Morgan is great. I’ve been coming here for nearly a decade and highly recommend.Matt Zarcone

I’m a student transfer from a different state which I attended Carrington college. I recently relocated back to Az in hopes to finish nursing school here. I struggled where I came from trying to work only as needed so I can go full time in nursing school. Where I’m from classes were only offered during the day. I moved back to Az so I can work full time again and attend classes in the evenings. I lost almost everything I had where I was because of not working Harley any hours. Here, I can attempt to pay bills by working full time days and still go to classes in the evenings. I put in 4 out of 6 semesters with Carrington. The Mesa campus director, Antonio Thompson, took that from me. I pay out of pocket because I have exhausted my financial aid on a different degree that still pays very little. Young, and thinking I was doing the right thing many years ago, as the first to go to college in my family, I attended a private school which ate up my financial aid. Little did I know that there was only so much FA you can borrow to get through your bachelors. Antonio Thompson made a decision to not enroll me because of a balance I cannot afford to pay up front. I struggled to make payments. It’s not easy to survive on your own with no other income and attend nursing school, and because I can’t pay up front, he took my dream and life away. I’ve been depressed ever since. I’ve been in healthcare 20+ years and I know I would be an outstanding RN. I’ve worked in the ICU and managed in healthcare. It’s amazing how an individual wants to make a life for themselves and just be educated can be told no… basically you’re not good enough for us to educate you because you can’t afford it. I’m not trying to get free education. I’m trying to better my life so I can pay all my bills, including my student loans.Kat

Unprofessional. Went to school here in 2018 but couldn’t finish it off. I contacted them a little over a YEAR ago so I can restart my path. Was in touch with Ernesto and out of nowhere stop receiving replies. I sent emails left messages and even went to the school. Every time was promised to be contacted. But I didn’t know it would take A WHOLE YEAR! Ernesto just contacted me today, a whole year later after I first inquired about the school. No thank you. Krista was an awesome instructor when I did attend the school in 2018. But I will not be returning there. Get a better organized staff to help out.Cristina Delgado

First semester was great. Second and third had so many staffing issues. Teaching was inconsistent and had professors leave and be replaced mid way through. The financial aide department is a complete mess. I received three different financial plans from three different financial planners stating that after financial aid, I owed out of pocket ranging from $1600- $19000. A little bit of discrepancy there. Two stars. One for my enrollment advisor, Maribel and second semester. Other than that , the staff and quality of instruction we received in the third semester leaves much to be desired.George Ruiz

I am a working registered dental hygienist who graduated from Carrington College back when they were at their previous location relatively close by on San Ignacio. I can't speak for the program now since alot has probably changed in terms of administration, but our program director Sherry Heaney, department of hygiene staff, and supervising doctors were all great and provided us with excellent, rigorous education. We had a very thorough clinical and classroom education there at Carrington which allowed my graduating class to pretty much all go through the program and pass our National and regional boards for hygiene. The cost for the programs I will admit is a bit pricey as it is a private tech school, but they do have loan options. I just recently paid off my student loans after working part time for 3-4 years as a dental hygienist. Also keep in mind that the program was only about 1.5 years full-time vs the 2 years you would expect to go through from one of the renown lottery local community college programs at foothill, Diablo, etc. By all means if you are lucky enough to get into those programs go there as you will save a ton of money, but education-wise my education was on par with those schools. After we graduated I received many phone calls checking up on me to ask if I had been employed yet, so they do seem to check up on how we were doing after going through the program. If you are coming into this clinic as a patient, understand that this isn't a dental practice. Carrington makes nothing from having you come in for their essentially free treatment. They don't "prey" on people without dental insurance because Carrington receives no benefit from you coming into the department for treatment, and rather it is more of a service to you and the local community. That being said, you will be treated by STUDENTS and their only gain from you will be clinical experience. Treatment planning and the amount of time you spend in the clinic will also be ALOT longer than it would be if you were to go to a dental office. I'm talking about a few days of you coming in for appointments vs an hour at a dental office. To Nichole's review, since I can't directly respond to your review: I am unaware of how your periodontal health was before treatment but most likely you had gum disease. If you are having gum recession after treatment that you didn't expect, then I am afraid maybe you didn't have enough patient education. That is something that just happens if you have gum disease and receive treatment for it. Your gums recede because they are swollen initially and you already have bone loss around your teeth. Once they firm up they will naturally recede to match your bone levels. As a practitioner it triggers me when the patient blames the doctor or staff for the patient's own negligence even though as practitioners we have the heart to basically do charity work for them. It is sad that you feel entitled to free treatment and then blame your healthcare provider. Just my two cents here.Unsullied Roarrior

Hi my name is Jessylynn I am from Philippines, migrated here USA 2009, I know in myself that my passion in Dentistry will stop but by year 2016 I met former student of Carrington College, she’s working a Dental Hygienists now. Thanks to her because she encourage me to go to go back to school and try to inquire. The staffs in Carrington College are friendly even the janitor and security guard and front desk. I remember the first day doing my inquiring in this school, I met Troy he was my enrollment advisor! He’s so nice, funny and cool! I like him! I like how he help me and my friend to get this in the program. He extends his arm to help you for what you need to get in the program and take note I don’t have money, nor credit score or anything financial. It’s true that the private school is so PRICEY! I can’t blame or complain about it because it’s private school and you’ll graduate in 1.5 years not including pre req. Troy explained everything about it, how you’ll pay and how much you’ll pay. Honestly, I didn’t know what I’m doing but with the help of Carrington College staff I would say I owe them from what I became now because they helping me to make my dream come true even you don’t have money for now, it’s like get your degree and pay later! I am now in Term 2 in Dental Hygienist Program! Carrington College of Dental Hygiene Program Department’s environment is peaceful. The faculty are very friendly. This the place where you can learn many things. I honestly can say, their way of teaching is not intimidating, they work harder just to make sure their student doing a good job especially in the clinic, your practice skills (oh, a lot of COMPETENCY, which is to test your skills, if you failed then they’ll teach you until you get it) and lecture. I love how they focus on your hand skills, your ergonomic (protecting your back, I don’t even know that!) BASIC is life! They teach you not only to learn how to treat patient but they care also for you to love the job so you’ll not injure your overall health! Mrs. Clark is the one who welcomed us in this Program, she’s so gentle when she talk and I love her teaching in Radiology subject and not only her you’ll love. All the DH department staff are friendly and funny that what’s make me go to school everyday and excited to LEARN. They’re all knowledgeable, professional, and they will not stop failing you until you get the PERFECT skills, they’re not judgmental they’re always asking “DO YOU HAVE QUESTION?”. One of our Instructor said “MISTAKE IS A OPPORTUNITY”. I realized being perfection is not what make you GREAT! I don’t wanna brag everything but their teaching reached my beyond expectation. I can’t wait to finish my Program and start to work!Jesselyn Berganio

This particular location has some very wicked women working in positions they’re obviously not qualified to work in. If you’re a woman of African descent, they work so hard to keep you down and out of the programs, if the salary will start at a healthy rate. Yet they’re pretty rude and condescending to EVERYONE! They try to intimidate the students for having questions. They’re very unsupportive and unprofessional. They will gang up on you, knit pick with you, hold unnecessary bully like meetings with you, etc. these women can’t handle the responsibility that their position Carrie’s . They’re old as Medusa and have the audacity to mock an older student. It’s a shame that after all that women have been through overtime , these women believe that it’s their job to try and hold another woman back. I had a heart issue due to a medication I had taken while I was a student there. I was admitted into the hospital, and still managed to attend my class the following day from my hospital bed. These women verbally attacked me in private the first day I returned to campus. I was still weak from being ill, which caused me not to be able to properly defend myself. Fortunately, I was able to record the second attack—all because I inquired about what the protocols would be in the event that students became ill with covid. They wanted to meet with me again privately, the meeting took approximately 1 hour, yet my question was never answered. Instead they brought up all kinds of other silly things, while gazing at me like I was an experiment. There’s a lot more I have to say about this campus and it’s Surgical Technology Director, Lab instructor, and the Director of Student Services. They behaved like pure monkey’s.Tara Newton-Bailey

My 5 year old had to be under today for her teeth to get fixed. Her dentist was the absolute best! They showed so much patience and they were companionate and caring. She was scared the first visit and they made her feel like they were her friend and made her feel safe and comfortable! Her anesthesiologist Dr. Horgan was so good with her, he was so calm and patient with her and they overall took amazing care of her!! I couldn’t have asked for a better place to leave my baby in their care especially since I was so scared. Absolutely love this place and can’t thank everyone single staff member for treating her as if they were her family member. Wouldn’t go anywhere else!! Thank you all so much!!Heather Lucchesi

My children have been patients at Champagne Pediatric for 8 years and we have always loved our experience. Unfortunately, due to the new location we visited today will be seeking a new office for our children. It is unreasonable to expect parents visiting a pediatric office to park in a parking garage with no available parking on the street. I don’t feel it is a safe expectation and the location is not at all child friendly. We will miss visiting the office on Sparks Blvd with plenty of parking right out front in a child friendly atmosphere.Molly Bunker

I am so thankful to have found this office and the great staff. Dr. Gannam is absolutely amazing and considers every aspect of care for my children. Her words and the way she relates with the kids during appointments and procedures is a breathe of fresh air for us. My daughter now loves going to the dentist again after two years of tears and struggling to get her to go. We have been to 5 pediatric dentist in the Reno/Sparks area and this one is by far the best.Brittany Dutra

The teachers here are amazing and wonderful and do not get enough credit for all the little things they do. I was in the vet tech program. All the instructors for vet tech actually are RVT which is cool, cause they have seen so many things and worked in the field for so long, they are all so very knowledgeable. Most of the employees who worked in the office are also very helpful and kind. No one in the entire Carrington College Pleasant Hill location regarding faculty (including staff, office workers, janitors and teachers) gets the recognition they deserve. Everyone i met in the time during my program all went above and beyond what they were paid to do or had to do because the instructors and teachers really care about you and really want you to reach your goals. Any problems or issues you may be having the teachers will always help you or they will find someone who is better equipped to help and understand your issues or problems. The 2 years i spent here because thats how fast you can get your degree and diploma in a 2 year period went back so quick and i would completely do it again. All the teachers have there own way of giving you the information you need but it is your job to study it. My teacher was awesome so there were times when the teacher would stay later then needed just to help me and other studys or review any information that we werent completely comfortable with yet. It's nice to know that the staff, instructors and teachers really want you to know this information and will not get pass anyone who doesnt know there information. You get to work with so many beautiful animals both which students, and teacher bring in from there homes as well as the labs we attend to practice on larger animals such as horses and cows. It was all just one big thrilling event. All teachers, instructors and staff deserve a raise for the wonderful things they do just on a daily basis to help others that goes unnoticed. During my time here at the Carrington College Pleasant Hill campus i also worked there as a student worker. All staff members are overworked and underpaid. The higher up management people who get paid to do a job that they pan off on the others who are lower in ranked get all the opportunities as well as all the recognition for things they have no part in. I have seen multiple people quit or be fired for what others have done which is not right. The CEOs or whomever is at the top and makes the decision for everyone under them needs to pay more attention to there employees and actually realize what they are doing and know what they are worth. The instructors and teachers do not work here because of the pay or recognition that they so rightfully deserve and need, NO. They work here because they love the people here, because they love the students here, it's because they love what they do and they want us students to make sure we love it to. They do not want us paying so much money and taking all these classes if it is not something we actually want and like to do and are good in it. If all the little dogs got paid more and well enough as well as proper trainer for new employees and not just throwing them to the wolves making them feel overwhelmed and adding boatloads of paperwork to a single person already under stress and having a shoulder looked over every minute wondering if they are messing up because no one was there to properly train them, then the employees at carrington college pleasant hill campus would probably stay longer and would not leave due to things being mislooked at. Thank you for your time. I will always love and miss all the teachers i had, all the instructors who taught me something and all the staff members who became my friends both in and out of the work place.satin williams

My experience enrolling in Carrington College was amazing with Annaque Dean helping me with the process. She is so nice and caring I am really happy she help me to star my carrier as a Medical Assistant she believe on me and I will always be greatful with her for all her support and she still there for me I know I can come to her with any questions or problem i might be straggling and she will always help me. She is the best 😊Maria Gutierrez

My teacher for the Dental Assisting course is top notch. Encourages questions and helps students not just learn the information to pass the course but understand the information in order to have a successful future career. For anyone considering a career as a dental professional, Carrington has an A+ program.Whatssit Touya

Great and friendly staff. They got me in on a emergency early visit as a new customer due to my crown and filing coming out. They patched me up and I was on my way in just 1 hour. There prices were great to. I don't have insurance but they had this sweet member subscription that saved me more than $200 on my visit. I only paid $95 out of pocket. Bieng a member gets me 2 cleanings, 2 exams and screenings, 2 Fluoride treatments, and routine x-rays. Not to mention I save 30% off any procedures done with them. I'm so glad my friend Julie recommended them. Now I have a sweet smile to show off for my trip to Cancun.roberto figueroa

The Service was good… however, they refused to listen to me about my insurance copay and forced me to pay an extra 100 bucks. My insurance confirmed I was overcharged and have left multiple messages that they have not returned. They also have not responded to my messages/or picked up the phone when I call… With lots of options in town, I'd avoid Aland since they are definitely being dodgy with me!Sean Vogt

The experience I had at Aland Family Dentistry was excellent. I am new to the area and had to take a gamble on where to land for a new dentist and I’m so glad I landed here. Dr. Troy was very pleasant to work with. I liked that he talked me through everything he was doing and what he was seeing while examining my teeth. The support staff was also very kind. I would definitely recommend AFD.Jalyn Savage

I never thought i would write a review for going to the dentist …a review from a great experience at a fine dining restaurant yes for sure …but for a visit to the dentist ? No . BUT as a patient of O'Gara Dental care …all that has changed. They are as a group, the nicest people in the world and as a patient ( and I sadly I am a regular ) i have never had a bad experience , pain free so much so i have actually dozed off on occasion as they work on me ! Dr Trisha is the best dentist i have ever had and I have been to various dentists for years in Canada from Toronto to Windsor and now since I have been in the US ….from Buffalo , to San Francisco to Reno. I can honestly say i used to regret those times in the past when I knew i had a dentist appointment but now ….. I welcome that visit because i know I will be treated professionally in every way .Jim Reaume

I’ve Been a patient of Dr Michael O’Gara for 35+ years. He and his staff are extremely professional. Mike is a super nice guy and truly cares about his patients welfare! Always a pain free experience. He goes out of his way to explain the treatment you are receiving. Special Kudos go out to Amanda… she has been my dental hygienist for a decade. I actually look forward to getting my teeth cleaned 😃Bradley Benson

This is what professional dental care looks like. Scheduling, payment processing, and customer service are 5 stars. Ditto availability. Had an introductory assessment (1st visit) and received treatment later the same day. Post-procedure some pain is common. Nope. No pain, no sensitivity to hot or cold… so 5 stars across the board for O'Gara Dental. Home run on the first pitch of the game.Blue DeBrosky

I have been to your practice twice now and your service could not be any better. Yesterday, I had my teeth cleaned by Jaime. She is a gem!! Very competent and friendly. Then an unexpected bad infected tooth was detected. Well, I wasn’t scheduled but I stayed there and Dr. Walker accommodated me and pulled my infected tooth. They are all so nice and accommodating. If you are wondering, this is the Dentist office to go to!!! Sincerely, Martha SchneiderMartha Schneider

Loved The Dentist Office in Fallon scheduled with The Dentist Office here in Fernley due to better scheduling with my own schedule since I work out here. And I was not disappointed ☺️ ☺️ just as kind and fast. I came in for a chipped front tooth and was happily surprised they were able to fix it same day even though it was my first appt with them. So happy 😁 Thank you Dr Walker and StaffJamie Hildreth

Picked The Dentist Office because we just moved to the area and it was close to our new home. I was very pleased from the moment I walked in and I was treated very well. Everyone was so nice and welcoming. Thanks for a great experience and I look forward to our next visit. I won’t mention names because it takes a team for such a great environment. Thank you The Dentist Office!Angela Petty

From the office staff to the hygienist and Dr. York the service was exceptional! I’ve been going to this practice for many years now and love it. I had a new hygienist today and she was so professional, friendly and I liked that she took the time to explain things to me. Lupe made me feel at ease which is always great on a first meeting.Becky Yerxa

I am highly satisfied with the treatment that myself and the girls consistently receive from this dental practice. From the front desk to the provider, Dr. York, we are happy! We enjoy our visits ☺️ A special shout out to Bev and Denise! Those ladies are wonderful ❤️ The Hygienists are care and kind as well ❤️25Hooyah

I have been with Dr. York for several years. He is a very competent professional who knows his business. My biggest compliment is that I can be treated by him and his staff without fear of being charged for unnecessary services. The entire operation, from check in ti departure, is top notch!Jake Wiskerchen

I’ve seen these loops worn by a colleague I immediately knew I needed to try them. I asked him if he enjoyed them he said he loved him. I looked online and saw on their website that Lumadent was confident in their product. I felt comfortable being fully committed to buying the product. I measured myself and it was easy and they gave clear instructions. Throughout the waiting period between buying and receiving my loops, I was in contact with Michelle Brown. She was extremely kind and very helpful. She was always an email away and when I called she answered. I just received my loupes, It took a few times to get used to them but I automatically loved them. I can sit more relaxed during procedures and I can still see what my assistant is handing me and have clear vision of my tray. Excellent loops highly recommend!Roberto Lara

I bought a light with batteries for my loupes from LumaDent. One of the batteries only lasted 2 months until it over heated my light which ultimately burned my finger. I expressed my frustration and the company agreed to have it evaluated and replaced if needed. What upsets me the most is the company refused to refund me the $12 return shipping fee after finding the battery to be defective. I understand paying the return fee if I decide I do not want the merchandise, but how can a company sell you something that doesn't work and ask you to pay to send it back? Lumadent has lost a good customer over $12.Samantha Dzierlatka

I own a headlight system from this company that I added to my loupes. Has been a tremendous tool for me as a head and neck surgeon. I’ve used it in the office and OR for the last 7 years. The company has top notch customer care (a few years into my first set of batteries they recalled the batteries to do a rebuild. Those new ones lasted me another thousand charges or so). Just about to upgrade to a new battery and thankfully they didn’t upgrade the new system to exclude old users. LED headlight still going strong. Their system is the best value I’ve found and more than adequate for meDavid T

Who would ever expect a dental appointment to be a relaxing, pleasant experience? It certainly was for me today! Tammie, my dental assistant, greeted me like a friend and made sure I was comfortable, including offering a remote control to choose what type of chair massage I wanted during my dental procedure! Doctor Christina was also very friendly and gentle. I felt relaxed and pain free the whole time. Jason was very efficient at check out time, asking how everything went, reviewing when my next appointment was, and ending my visit with a smile and “have a great time with your grandkids this afternoon “. I came away feeling very well cared for!Margaret Oberg

I love this dentist office! Everyone is kind and caring, and they always have your best interests at heart. They literally have inspired me to take better care of my teeth. And everyone from the hygienist to the dentist is so gentle. My wife, who is terrified of the dentist, loves going to the Sala office now. Lisa my hygienist is so fun. And when I got my fillings with Dr. Christina Knapp, I felt like she was an artist working on my teeth. Jade, her assistant, was also fantastic, and kept me comfortable during the whole procedure. And Jason who discharged me had such a great attitude. All around, everyone made my dentist experience enjoyable!!!!!Rachel Anderson

Sala Family Dentistry has really turned around my experiences in going to the dentist office. The team there is absolutely fantastic from the front desk to the doctors. With all of the craziness in my personal life these days, from Covid to work issues, they have always been fantastic about scheduling and cancelations. Unlike other places I have been in the past, I have never had to book six months out. I had to reschedule last minute the other day so I called in and spoke to Deana M. She was exceptionally friendly and understanding, and she booked me a new appointment with no hassle. I recommend Sala Family Dentistry to everyone.Stephen Bayne

I've been going to this practice for 20+ yrs, first with Dr Monte Neugebauer, who was the best dentist I'd ever had. When he retired, I was worried about who could replace him. But the clever Dr Monte had sent his son off to dental school and Dr Brady came back equally skilled and has proven to be such a professional. I had great strong teeth all my life, but have now had some issues. Trish gets me in quickly, hygienists are first rate, Dr Brady is calm, friendly, concise in his explanations and procedures are (absolutely!) painless and quick. This is the definition of a great dental practice and I highly recommend Dr Neugebauer and his staff!Chris Paul

I have been coming to this Dental office for 8 years now. I recommend them highly. The dental hygienists I have seen over the years have all been great. The Dentist I have been working with over the years is Dr Brady Neugebauer. He is very friendly–very likeable–very competent. Just this past week I had a crown put in by Dr Brady Neugebauer . The whole procedure was painless! He is great at giving shots. He is very informative and puts me at ease when I have any questions or concerns. (HIs Assistant, Erin, is equally friendly and competent.) I come to this dentist quite calmly –much different from my younger years!Patricia Sweeney

My wife and I recently found Dr. McElroy and we couldn't be happier. We both had some moderate to major work to be done and the process was simple, informative and (relatively) painless. Dr. McElroy and his staff walked us through each step of the process and all fees were up front and presented with a handful of options. It allowed us to prioritize based on our needs and finances. Of course they took our insurance as well. Great job all! You guys are stuck with us as patients because we love how we are treated and the care we receive. Highly recommend.Battle Born Barry (Barry Kell)

I am very, VERY impressed with The Reno Dentist! The staff is professional and friendly. I am a new patient and Dr. Sykes called me the day before my appointment to see if I had any specific concerns I wanted to discuss at my visit. I was shocked! I have never experienced that in my life and I work in the medical profession. A doctor call a patient the day before their appointment?!?!? No way! During my visit it was very clear that he really cares about his patients and truly wants them to understand their plan of care. He is knowledgeable and passionate in the dental specialty. His assistant, Z, is awesome! Very informative and very kind. I am still in awe of my whole experience with their practice. I highly recommend The Reno Dentist for all dental needs!Sara R Z

Going here is always great! The staff is super-friendly and on the ball. We have a large family, and they work hard to make appointments to accomodate our schedule, which is so awesome. The hygienists are knowledgeable and thorough. Shout out to Kris and Ariel for taking care of us today! They are rad. Both Dr. Sykes and Adams take the time to answer patient questions or concerns, and really explain all your options. We've used most of the services the office offers, and have been very satisfied with everything. Our family has moved around a bit and experienced a number of dental environments. The Reno Dentist has been our go-to since we moved into the area over a decade ago, and we'll continue to see them. Thanks guys!G. Andaluz

I have been a patient at The Reno Dentist for a year now when I moved to Reno NV. I am very happy and satisfied with its very caring and expert team. I enjoy coming because of the very high quality of service they always provide. You feel welcome, encouraged to discuss your concerns, and guided holistically. You’ll be taken cared of like a family member. It is one the best dental clinics for me.Sim Gamboa

I started my care with Dr. Novick, he was absolutely amazing! Very knowledgeable, communicated well and made me feel secure about my braces. Each appointment he thoroughly explained what we were doing, why we were doing it, and what I should expect next appointment. Midway into my treatment, they moved him to another office and it seems like everything went downhill from there. There use to be appointments that previously fit my schedule, hence this is why I chose Gentle Dental, now the new Orthodontist seems to only have appointments available that's rather inconvenient, and they are always far apart. When i go in for my appointments, there is never any explanation of what is going on, what they are doing and why. They talk in medical terms amongst each other, and send me on my way. If they happen to tell me what to expect on next appointment, when I come in for the next appointment they don't recall any of it. I'm not sure why there wouldn't be documentations of what was discussed my last appointment. Communication just doesn't seem to be this office's strong point. The billing issues is a completely different thing, I had billing issues 3x where it was eventually fixed, but it's always me being told I'm required to pay one thing, pay it off, only to get another bill, and told there was some kind of mistake so I need to pay more. There is 1 older lady assistant(can't recall her name) who is usually great with explaining things when she's tightening my braces if I'm lucky to get her, but I'm not always so lucky. At this point, I just want the treatment to be done and over so that I can just go about my business. I finally got clarity that I should have 2 more appointments left in this process. If that is all, that would be great! I will go some place else for any additional care I may need going forward. I'm giving 2 stars for the service provided by Dr. Novick, whom is now retired because I tried to see if I can just go to wherever he is, and the Orthodontist assistant who is always amazing when I get lucky to get her.Tammy K Bowman- Rutledge

Consistently numbs the wrong nerves. Even dug the needle into my jawbone to where I felt pain shoot up my jaw and every nerve in my teeth on the lower right side, when I yelled the dr gushed with happyness: "oh good he feels it!" The doctor has a narcissistic way of ensuring you can't brace yourself when operating, and every time the doctor and assistant are operating on you at the same time they make you listen to their conversation which is always as deep as a table, and then they will say something toward you and act agitated when you answer and say they weren't talking to you. Not. Gentle.Slater Winters

I am very impressed with the service and patient care that Dr. Cardenas provides to his patients. You won’t wonder what is going on and what side effect to expect (pain or potential difficulties), he will explain everything and prepare you for how to go through your dental therapy and treatment. He would advocate for you if you are not satisfied with the outcome. Besides, he is very gentle, accurate, and passionate about his job. I can tell that he loves what he does and knows what he does. I trust that doctor and won’t go to any other dentist.Diana Wagle

Best Dentist I’ve ever had in Reno. I called for an appointment and I got assisted quickly. Took me one day to come in and do some procedures. Special shout out to MARIA! She’s very nice and very gentle. I definitely felt that I am in good hands. Had my root canal treatment with Dr. Park, it went well and he explained everything thoroughly. Also, a clean and comfy clinic and has a good relaxing music playing to calm your anxiety. They deserve a 10/5 ⭐️Katrina Albaño

I love Dr Park and the entire staff!! Every time I come here everybody’s very nice, friendly & treats me with respect. The staff is very knowledgeable and is always able to get me estimates for my treatments. I am always able to get in on time at my scheduled appointment times, even with the new Covid protocols, it’s not an inconvenience to make it to my dentist appointment!! I appreciate JP dental and would highly recommend them to everyone!!!vanessa cockrell

Recently I became a patient and couldn't be happier. From the time I stepped in the door to the genuinely welcoming staff all the way through the Dr's exam which didn't feel like judgement about my truly lacking habits, but concern for my future well being. They got me in right away for a cleaning as well (it was long overdue) and I again felt like the recommendations for better habits weren't judgment but really caring for me as a person.Corrie Gita
