My biggest fear was to sit in that dentist's chair until I met Dr. Kristen Watanabe. She is very patient in explaining issues/problems with my teeth and what she needs to do to help me. Dr. Kristen Watanabe is knowledgeable and precise when working with my teeth. I am not as nervous now with my dentist's appointment...whew!

Doctor Tod and his staff deliver quality care with conversation. Doctor Tod is honest in diagnosis and procedures. He is wonderful. I have been his patient for over 30 years. Love him and his staff. Only dentist I have ever had! My whole family has him as their only dentist.

Very kind and friendly family-owned and oriented dental practice. I started with the previous generation back in the 80’s and now the next generation takes care of me after I moved back into town. They basically take care of my whole extended family!
