Dr. Pratt always makes sure I am on enough nitrous before starting the awful, cleaning sounds! I really appreciate that, with sensitive teeth, the dentist can be quite traumatic.Posted on Google![]()

Follow-up visit for implant and all went well. Went today February 17, 26 for removal of stitches. All went well. Painlessly removed and out in minutes. Very pleased with service by Dr Pratt. Dr Pratt is very good at explaining recommended work. Equally pleased with the office staff. All professionals giving great service.Posted on Google![]()
