Douglas Dentistry
“Recently, a filling fell out, so I made an appointment with Dr. Mai Dentistry and saw Dr. Fares, thinking I just needed a simple filling.
From the moment I walked in, this office felt different. It didn’t have that typical “dentist office” smell, and I couldn’t hear drilling noises that usually make my anxiety worse. The staff was welcoming and calming right away.
After a very thorough examination, I found out the tooth was actually cracked and needed a crown. Even worse, they discovered a large cavity under an old crown on one of my bottom premolars. Dr. Fares referred me to have it evaluated for a root canal, but unfortunately the tooth could not be saved and needed to be extracted.
For someone with a huge dental phobia, this was honestly a nightmare situation. Thankfully, Dr. Fares and his entire staff were absolutely amazing. They reassured me every step of the way and went above and beyond to make me comfortable and relaxed.
To my surprise, while having a tooth pulled is never going to be fun, it was actually a great experience considering the circumstances. I still have more dental work to be done, but my fear already feels much more manageable because I know I’m in such good hands.
I highly recommend Dr. Fares and everyone at Dr. Mai Dentistry, especially if you struggle with dental anxiety.”
