EXCELLENT Based on 363 reviews Posted on Nicki Marie Excellent with children and sensitive adults :) does not suggest unnecessary extra treatment - just what you need - and truly listens. Kind and fun staff!Posted on tara eich I can't say enough great things about the team at this office. After heavy avoidance I finally took the plunge to get a full overhaul of my poor mouth. 20+ years of periodontal desiese taking its toll, I knew I was in for a long ride and searched the internet for a team with the best reviews and the internet did me right. From front desk to specialists to assistants to finance guidance, every member of this office has been beyond helpful, informative and given special touches to make starting this journey as comfortable as possible for this anxious girl. There is no upselling or pressuring of extra services and everyone has put so much extra attention into finding the best process to reach the result I need, going so far as giving out their personal cell phone numbers in case I had questions or concerns at any time of day. They have even bypassed services others would recommend, because they wouldnt be the optimal benifit, proving that they are not on the clock trying to rake in all the money they can. There are many clinics closer to my home, but after one meeting with this team, I knew traveling would be well worth the incredible treatment I have recieved. I am only at the beginning of a long journey, and I couldn't express strongly enough how happy I am that I chose this office. Dr. Johns has been very informative and dedicated to guiding me to exactly what I need without bias on his personal opinions, and Chris, in finance, has gone above and beyond to guide me on any options available to me. I could not recommend a dental office more! *Edit to expand After what feels like endless surgeries, I am now, I think, 5 rounds in on correcting my teeth and periodontal desiese and I am still over the moon about this dental office. Dr. West is incredibly thoughtful and thorough as we continue this journey. He takes great care to listen to every detail of my journey and make it as effortless as possible. I think I have interacted with every person employed by the practice and can not express the genuine care and attention I recieve every single visit. Mid way through, my husband changed jobs throwing our finances into chaos and Chris with finance has been insanely helpful navigating payments. I thought I would have to put a postponement in a crucial part of the journey but everyone assures us, their patients are more important than their paychecks. I litterally cried from relief at the willingness to work with us through this. And let me say, when an assistant comes to call you back for your appointment saying "mine mine mine!" With a big bear hug, it's impossible to feel anything less than family vibes. Even the anesthesia folks are unspoken heros. I notoriously get bad reactions from anesthesia, and after 3 rounds, never once have I woken up with headaches and nausea I have come to expect and dread. I wish I could truly express how grateful and thankful I am to have trusted Boulder County Smiles with my care but there really are not enough words to do so!Posted on Bobbie Sellers Boulder Smiles makes going to the dentist a pleasure!!Posted on Kat Aeschlimann I used to live nearby but drive from Denver now, and it’s so worth it. I feel like they are a part of my healthcare team because their expertise goes so far beyond basic cleanings. Im currently getting a sleep study with them! They are also just such kind people and seem joyful to do what they do. I had a rough dental experience as a kid that left me distrustful of dentists, but the professionalism and warmth of Boulder County Smiles has changed that for me.Posted on Grant Pius Great dentist and absolutely enjoy the care and detail of dental hygienist. Excellent servicePosted on Kalia Bethany Very dedicated and friendly people who are devoted to helping. Dr Johns is so skilled and so kind. I feel 100% confident in my choice of Boulder County Smiles.Posted on Mike cronin Best cleaning ever !’
