What patients say about Carson Dental Care
Patients have left 303 Google reviews for Carson Dental Care, and the average sits at 4.8 stars. Read through the reviews and the same things surface: how the team treats children, friendly staff, and in many of them a clean, modern office. These are not vague five star notes either, since patients describe real visits and name Invisalign in their comments.
Loyalty runs deep, with at least one reviewer who has been coming here for over 8 years. A recurring line is that the numbing worked and nothing hurt, including for self described dental cowards. Several reviews come from families who bring more than one generation to the same chair. Taken as a whole, these reviews read like a practice that has earned its rating the slow way.

Carson Dental is the best. Very caring,knowledgeable and very good at communicating what the plan is for care. Dr Maria Aluning and staff treat all patients as family. My wife is a baby when it come to dental work but she trust our Dr. Aluning.
