      "Due to previous experiences at other dental offices, I had an 8-year gap in dental care. I went to Dr. Bell on the recommendation of a coworker. I'm so glad I did. Everyone - the business staff, the hygienists, the assistants, Dr. Bell himself, is top notch. Super friendly, super professional. Besides the lack of emotional stress in dealing with the dentist, I have experienced no physical pain at Dr. Bell's office...and I've had a root canal performed by Dr. Bell! He's got the golden touch! Just give them a call - I promise you won't regret it."

I got to my appt, I was offered water to help with my nerves, and brought back to my room for my visit. The dental assistant gave me my choice of music to calm me, and gave me the assurance that all was going to be good. I asked what was going to happen, and she explained every step to me, which was another huge comfort. Dr. Bell, the most kind, gentle man you can every meet, also took the time to explain everything to me. If I didn't feel right, to just tell him. sunglasses, music and a nice neck pillow and my heart beat dropped to normal. If you need the most experienced dentist around, please be smart and go to Dr. Bell !!! Happy Smiles!!"

      "Diana was new to me as a hygienist. She was efficient, pleasant, and the level of discomfort was about as low as one could expect. I would be happy to use her as my hygienist in the future. Mike, of course, was superb."

Everyone is willing to help in whatever way possible to contribute to a positive experience. Dr. Bell has assembled a superb team of professionals that make each visit something to look forward to."

      "I have been a long-time patient of Dr. Bell-I would not want to see anyone else! I recommended him this afternoon! He is not pushy...but more like a mentor about a patients evaluation. He is never eager to just get a patient out...although one knows he is conscientious about all of his patients. I have FULL confidence in him as a dentist on all levels! "
