I’ve only been to Catawba Valley Dental 3 times and I’m upset that I haven’t been coming all along. My dental hygienist is gentle but very thorough. I leave feeling confident that my teeth have been cared for. Dr Pate is professional and thorough. His office doesn’t try to sell me unnecessary treatments. I highly recommend this dental practice!!

Reviews
This office is clean, easy to get to and the staff are very friendly. I was out on referral from my primary dentist to seek out someone who could do a bridge. I specifically chose to come here because of the good reviews online.
While unfortunately I will not be having a bridge completed here due to cost (around $3k after insurance) my visit was informative, and allowed for me to get a better understanding of my options.
My dentist Id gone to all my life retired so I had to find a new one. I had a horrifying experience at the dentist I went to first so I was really nervous about going to my first appointment at Catawba Valley Dental.
Dr. Pate and his staff put me at ease from the front desk to the wonderful hygienist to Dr. Pate himself. They all made me feel like I’d always been a patient there. I have never felt any pain at all no matter what I’m having done. I’m a jokester and Dr Pate didn’t miss a beat picking with me!!! I highly recommend this office!
