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 are so amazing and competent. This dentist office isn’t as scary as the ones I remember from my kid years. They thoroughly tell you everything that’s happening with your teeth, and the hygienist even explained how toothbrush abrasion occurs (turns out, right-handed people brush their left side harder than their right!). I also love that they don’t try to upsell you on expensive and unnecessary procedures like a lot of other dental practices do. They can show you everything you want to see about your mouth. Dr. Thomas is always so considerate and empathetic, which really helps put me at ease. If you live in Phoenix, AZ, call Thomas & Thomas Dental today. You won’t be disappointed!

After recently moving to Phoenix from California, I started to look on Doctors Network for a new dentist. It had been about 6 months since my last cleaning and checkup, so I was long overdue. I heard about Smile-ist and called to get an appointment. Upon arrival, I was faced with a very pristine and up to date office with courteous team members. My dentist, Dr. Kulkarni, was extremely knowledgeable, polite, and made me feel relaxed. During my cleaning, I discovered that I had to get a few fillings and a crown. They explained everything in amazing detail so I knew I was in the best of hands. I've had a few visits for my cleaning, filling, and crowns and all of these visits have been fantastic. I would definitely suggest Smile-ist for their intelligence, astounding customer service, and amazing dental skills. And their location in Phoenix is great!!!!

I just moved to Phoenix, AZ and decided to check out Family & Cosmetic Dental for the first time. I was pretty amazed at how great the experience was! Of course, I had to fill out new patient paperwork, but it was a pretty seamless process. They had some of it already filled in based on what I told them over the phone when I scheduled the appointment. The staff is very warm and informative. Everyone seemed highly skilled and efficient. The exam was comprehensive, and the hygienist did an amazing job cleaning my teeth, especially since I was a few months overdue. Dr. Pulkrabek had a proactive approach in regards to my ancient fillings and receding gums. I love that he took the time to explain his logic, review x-rays and pictures with me, and made sure that I understood how much it would cost before going through with any treatment or procedure. I don’t usually like going to the dentist, but this office made the experience pretty fantastic and pain free. I love how much they care about their patients and their desire to get ahead of dental problems!

I started seeing Dr. Pulkrabek in Glendale, AZ because I needed a second opinion. I like him because he’s direct but kind and completely explained my treatment options. The staff here is so incredible and timely. If you need a phenomenal new dentist, I highly recommend Adrian Pulkrabek DDS!

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.
