I want to thank Dr. Moran and his team for helping in an emergency situation and saving my son's smile. I walked into the office right as they were closing at 5:02 after my son fell and chipped his front tooth. Dr Moran and the team stayed late to see us and walked us to the process of fixing his tooth. They explained the procedure and were patient with my son. We are very pleased with the outcome and grateful for their flexibility to see us at a moment's notice.

I brought my twins in for their first visit, and I couldn’t be happier with our experience. The office was super clean, and both the staff and the doctor were very informative about caring for my twins’ teeth. They showed me helpful tips and tricks, and made my twins feel so comfortable—they didn’t even cry! I’m so pleased with this office and would recommend it to every parent. Thank you, Dental Studio! See you in 6 months!

As a person who truly doesn't mind the dentist, I can actually say I enjoy going. The office is very clean, short wait time and extremely attentive to the patient's needs. I love the convenience of adult and pediatric dentistry for myself and kids. The staff is friendly and I would strongly recommend them. I appreciate all the dentists' attention to all my concerns and the ease with which my emergencies with my kids have been handled.

Dr Katie and her team are kind and patient and made my kids very comfortable! They explained everything thoroughly so my kids knew what to expect and were very much at ease. Between my three kids multiple visits I have interacted with many of their staff and have found everyone to be very friendly and helpful. The place is clean and cozy, and visits are always on time, and end with a treat that my kids love!
