For a couple of weeks, I had some sharp mouth pain. It got so bad that I could barely eat, drink or sleep. I couldn’t stand the pain much longer, so I called Brockton Family Dental (in Brockton, MA) who fit me in the same day! When I arrived, the receptionist was kind and inviting, and they didn’t make me wait too long to be seen. They took an X-ray to try to figure out what was wrong with my tooth. Turns out, I had an awful cavity and needed a root canal, so Dr. Bae did the procedure, which couldn’t have gone better despite taking 2 hours. They kept me entertained while he was drilling my tooth, and after all that, I’ll definitely go back for my annual cleaning! I’ve never been to a dental office where the staff was this helpful and kind!
