Our Happy Patients
“I was a bit nervous to bring my toddler in for his first dental appointment just not knowing how he would react to everything. The staff at Pillar Dental made for an experience that was interesting and fun for him. He literally asks when he GETS TO go back for another teeth cleaning. I couldn’t have been happier with how it went and how the entire staff made him feel so comfortable. I of course also go to Pillar Dental and always enjoy catching up with the friendly staff. I would highly recommend anyone with children to bring them and the rest of your family to Pillar Dental!”
“I was a new client at the West 26th Street location. The experience was very good! All staff were very friendly and my cleaning went well. They took the time to measure my gum line and made suggestions about how to have better oral health. They even showed me all of my teeth on this cool camera they put in my mouth. I’ve found a new dentist!”
“Pillar Dental West is awesome! Everyone is super friendly and they do great work! Would definitely recommend them for anyone looking for a great dentist office.”
“All of the staff at Pillar Dental are friendly, helpful, and professional. I love that you are always welcomed in, the wait time to be seen is minimal, and the dentist is extremely knowledgeable and spends extra time on any concerns you may have. You are not “shoved out” and the friendly staff takes the time to get to know you. Our family will definitely stick with this Dental clinic.”
“I knew I was behind on my dental checkups and needed some extensive work done. The dentist was very understanding and they were able to set up a plan where I could get more done in fewer visits, which is key for me.”
