zero stars. Please be aware, new dentist with control issues.
We had the WORST experience I have ever had at a dentist. We have gone to Lifetime Smiles Dental for years (Dr Reynolds and Dr Grandberry were both wonderful)
Unfortunately this practice has changed to a new dentist who did terrible bedside manner. He did not introduce himself, and had a very dismissive manner.
My daughter went in for a filling and after she was numbed by the dentist, he turned to me and said “ok, now you need to leave the room.”
I have never been asked to leave my daughter by other dentists at this practice. There was no prior discussion or notification stating that I was not allowed in the room for my 7 year olds procedure.
I asked why I needed to leave and he said “It is a control issue.”
My daughter sits very still so I didn’t understand. I was then asked why I had a problem with leaving.
I was shocked by the timing of giving my child a numbing shot and then refusing to continue the procedure until I left the room. I felt manipulated to leave since he had started numbing her mouth. I was made to feel badly that I wanted to stay in the room to support my child. He felt aggressive and controlling. The staff did not seem to feel comfortable around him. My daughter and I left. I will never return to this dental office.

I had a great experience with Lifetime Smiles! I was experiencing wisdom tooth pain but also hadn’t been to the dentist in several years so I was anxious about going and concerned that it would take a while to actually be seen. I called on Monday and spoke to the front desk (Claudia I believe) and she got me in for a cleaning and dental exam two days later. Front desk staff on the phone and during my visit were super helpful and personable. They all wished me a happy belated birthday 🙂 My hygienist was awesome (Jasmine) and I appreciated her telling me what she was doing while cleaning my teeth. Dr. Grandberry was very kind, helpful and concise. I don’t typically write reviews but like I mentioned I was so anxious about going in, and I left thinking this was one of the best dental experiences I’ve had. Thank you!

I had such a wonderful experience at Lifetime smiles Dental. Everyone was so nice and professional. I was very nerves and they took very good care of me. I don’t remember my dentist please forgive me but he is Awesome he is the new dentist in the office, I appreciate his skills. I’m so very happy that I step out to find a new dental office. I truly was bless with a office I’m comfortable with and don’t have to be afraid of my dental visit. This will be the place for me.
