So let me begin by laying the groundwork. I had the typical tragic backstory. When I was younger I had an absolute terrible encounter with a dentist, and had near crippling anxiety about going to the dentist ever since. I was in the full belief that it always was going to hurt when getting your teeth fixed, and you just have to bear it and I was just weaker than most when it came to dental pain. Well, after MANY years, I finally mustered up the courage to visit a dentist and did loads of research before settling on VIP dental. Holy moly, am I glad I did. From the first time I walked in, I told them how anxious I was, and they were quick to help me feel calm. The staff they have is absolutely wonderful and personable. They talked me through the entire thing, and Dr. Tate was extremely nice as well. I remember them finishing my filling and being confused because it hadn't hurt. Like, at all. I thought maybe it was a fluke, a lucky break, but the next one didn't hurt either. I couldn't begin to tell you how surprised and relieved I was. I recommend them highly, especially if you have any anxiety about going to the dentist at all. They completely changed my outlook of the dentist, and I no longer absolutely dread going. I give them the highest recommendation.
