Best Experience

Dental Arts is such a wonderful dentistry! I highly recommend Jill as a hygienist– she made me feel extremely at ease, which quite the feat because I get very bad dental anxiety. Jill also gave me great advice on how to improve my gums and was incredibly gentle during my cleaning. Big shoutout to the administrative staff too! I had a great experience working with them

Patient since 2024

I have a long history of complicated dental work and surgeries which has made me very anxious when it comes to going to the dentist. Going to dental arts I have always had a great experience from the receptionist, to Dr. Dobrin and his assistant. But I am doing this review because I am very grateful to have Audrey as my dental hygienist. With her you are not just another patient in her chair. She is personable, caring, and compassionate and is very talented. My fear and anxiety of going to the dentist disappears as soon as I'm in her chair.

Phenomenal experience!

Audrey is the best!! She always does a wonderful job during my cleanings and amazingly makes the experience fun and relaxing! I have had such a great experience every time, and she is so personable it makes the time fly. Last year, she also whitened my teeth; it was so fast and it looked great. Thanks Audrey! Dr. Hu is so nice and great to work with as well :)
