My friend recommended Mesa Dental Care and Dr. Nia and her hygienist a couple months ago, and I finally made an appointment the other day. They were very friendly on the phone, answered the questions I had about my discount dental plan that I signed up for in office, and they got me scheduled for the next week. When I got there the Patient Care Coordinator (what an awesome title) made me feel very comfortable. She went through a more detailed explanation of how my dental plan in Mesa Dental Care would work with the procedures that were going to be done. Then I met the doctors, who were even more friendly and professional than they were over the phone, which I didn’t think was possible. They walked me through the whole procedure and explained why photos and x-rays of my mouth were necessary. I think they could tell I was nervous and that I needed all the information they gave me in order to be reassured. I’ve had Mesa dentists who don’t answer my questions or tell me I need procedures that I really didn’t need, they just want to get more out of me. Dr. Nia didn’t do that. I usually hate dentists, but I’m very happy with this place’s work. I completely trust, and would recommend them to anyone, they really know their stuff.

Dr. Kunthara and the rest of the staff at Simon Dental Care in Mesa are very kind and knowledgeable. A couple years ago I moved back from college where I had a previous dentist in Phoenix. This place let me come in as a transfer patient and was very thorough in their explanation of everything. They went through my treatment plan, asked me what my goals for my teeth were, took molds and casts of my current teeth, and just overall have been very thorough. I did research and I found a lot of options, but ultimately went with this place, and I’m glad I did. You can tell how much these people love their jobs by the high quality of work they do. I’ve recommended this place to my friends and family, trying to convince my family to drive a couple extra miles to come to Dr. Kunthara. She adjusted a wire for me the other day and then she called me later that day to make sure I wasn’t in any pain and that I didn’t have any questions. I’ve never seen any other dentist do that, and so that’s why I wrote this review. They truly have excellent customer service, they’re like no other place I’ve ever been to, and that’s why I have to recommend this place.

I will be going to Dr. Muscato and his staff for all my dental needs in Phoenix, AZ until the day I die, and highly recommend other people to do the same. I started coming to him for my dental needs 3 years ago after having been to a couple other dentists around town. Dr. Muscato is the greatest dentist I’ve ever been to. He listens to and respects his patients. He will gladly answer any of your questions or concerns, he’s very patient. He’s done fillings and crowns for me, and I’m very happy with his work. His staff, including the hygienists and receptionists, are great. They’re very friendly.

Dr. Thomas and his staff at Thomas & Thomas Dental in Phoenix, AZ are amazing! I really hate going to the dentist, but I don’t mind getting my cleanings done at this office because they’re so gentle. The receptionist makes booking an appointment so easy, and Dr. Thomas and his team provide a seamless customer experience!

My wife and I moved to Phoenix about a year ago, and we were nervous about finding a good dentist near me. We’ve tried three different places, but none of them were satisfactory. But I had a dental emergency in Phoenix a couple weeks ago. I lost my crown and after doing a bit of research decided to go to Dr. Kulkarni. I only had to go in once for her to get the crown completely finished. There was almost no pain, the only thing that hurt a little bit was the novocaine needle. The crown looks great. Anyone needing awesome dental work done should come here.

I just had my first consult and surgery at Family & Cosmetic Dental in Phoenix, AZ. I am so amazed with Dr. Pulkrabek’s patience in explaining the procedure to me. He was able to look at my xrays from the exam and diagnose me quickly. Plus, the cost of his service is unmatched by any other dentist I’ve been to. But what really impressed me was that he only charged me half of what other dentists were going to charge for the same procedure, which saved me thousands of dollars! The other guy was going to charge me nearly $1k for just the anesthesia. The surgery went really smoothly and as planned! It didn’t hurt that much and the price he quoted me was on point. I healed quickly, too. The only thing I need to do is get a crown on the implant because his job was just to put the screw in. Now, I need to go to my usual dentist for the crown. They also cleaned my teeth at this office, and they did a great job. Two thumbs up from me!

I’ve been a patient at Adrian Pulkrabek DDS in Glendale, AZ for a long time and have always experienced the best service ever. They always call me to remind me about my appointments and accommodate my crazy (always-changing) schedule. The office is nice, and they always check me in quickly with virtually no wait times. The hygienist is incredible, and Dr. Pulkrabek always thoroughly checks my teeth. The office manager smiles at me and chats me up a little before I leave. I’ve been to this dental office a lot and recommended them to all my friends and coworkers. Thank you for the excellent service!

My first time here I came in because I had intense teeth and gum pain. After x-rays and a consult with Dr. Owens, he was able to do a quick bite adjustment and I had no pain. I hate going to the dentist, but these people were great, and the service was wonderful. They made me feel very comfortable. I would recommend this place to anyone in the Peoria area.

From a young age, Dr. Eric Wendelschafer was instilled with a strong work ethic, growing up in a family deeply rooted in the commercial construction industry. He spent much of his youth working alongside his family, learning the satisfaction of hands-on work and the value of dedication and craftsmanship.

Dr. Wendelschafer brings this same commitment and work ethic to his role as the owner and sole dentist at Great Smiles Dental Care in Surprise, a practice he has led since 2013. Motivated by his passion for improving patients' health and quality of life through exceptional dental care, he strives to offer high-quality services at a fair price. He is honored to serve the oral health needs of the community and is committed to delivering the best possible care to each patient who walks through the door.

Dr. Wendelschafer’s interest in dentistry was sparked during high school when he had the opportunity to shadow oral surgeons his mother worked for. It was then that he realized he wanted to pursue a career in dentistry. He never shied away from a challenge. As a student athlete, he earned a track scholarship while balancing the demands of studying, training, and working part-time installing metal roof panels in the Arizona heat. His determination led him to pursue a degree at the Arizona School of Dentistry & Oral Health, where he graduated and then gained practical experience in a corporate dental setting in Mesa.

In time, Dr. Wendelschafer took over at Great Smiles Dental Care when the previous doctor retired, and he has since been dedicated to providing the communities of Surprise, Sun City, and beyond with healthy, beautiful smiles.

Dr. Wendelschafer is excited to welcome new patients to his practice and looks forward to working with each one to achieve lasting dental health.

Dr. Gandhi is the best dentist I've ever been to! Dentistry at Greenway is super nice, no creepy dentist vibe there at all! They do really great work and don’t try to persuade you to get unnecessary work done. I really appreciate that I’m not made to feel ashamed of my many fillings and my tendency to wait too long between cleanings.
