Essex Family Dental

Had my first visit here this past week. What a wonderful experience. The appointment was longer than I anticipated but that was because they took so much one-on-one time with me to make sure I was getting everything I needed out of the appointment. From the receptionist to assistant to the hygienist to the doctor, everyone was super friendly and knowledgeable and really seemed to be looking out for my best interest. I have never had a dentist actually go over my medical history with me. The hygienist and assistant went over everything they were doing so I never was out of the loop or confused. After my appointment the receptionist explained every item on my bill and even was able to estimate the cost of my next appointment. I have never been to a dentist where people cared so much! I recommend this place to everyone!

**WOW ** The Best! Fantastic welcoming atmosphere-Fabulous skilled informative Dentist- Helpful & warm staff- Great pain management ....... In excruciating agony radiating through my ear, jaw, head, neck etc. due to tooth decay and without a dentist, I was dreading the making of phone calls necessary in search of desperately needed care - being turned away for not being a current patient especially those colored in tones of annoyance or condensation was anxiety provoking while being overwhelmed by the pain Blessedly, Essex Family Dental is the FIRST place I called. My ONLY call :) Answered warmly with an appointment scheduled immediately. When I arrived I was treated as if I was a life long patient. I was immediately at ease with the only anxiety from my physical pain. The kindness, sincerity and "realness" of everyone I encountered was amazing. I was not at my best. The pain made me occasionally illogical and illmannered. ALWAYS, I was met with gentleness, understanding and respect. I felt completely unjudged and totally cared for. The dentist was a freaking super star! So thoughtful, candid, personable, and skilled. Essex Family Dental is hopping- a busy place, yet the atmosphere is relaxed, calm, unrushed -welcoming . Not only was my pain eliminated but I found solace in the individual- attentive treatment that I received and witnessed I almost enjoyed my hours long root canal. My pain was managed totally and may have even snoozed a few times during the procedure. I can't say enough GOOD. GREAT. Wonderful. Excellent I wouldn't...couldn't go anywhere else, if I had a choice. Gratefully, thanks to how Essex Family rolls, I do have a choice :) Dental issues are often ignored- fear or shame or finances may prevent people proper care of their oral health which leads to other life and health problems This CAN change. I recommend a call to them, preferably before damage or horrific pain occurs. Your call will be answered kindly, questions answered informatively... They rock! :)

My appointment today was a combination of a regularly scheduled cleaning as well as replacement of a crown that had fallen out. The appointment took much longer than any of us expected! However, I felt totally valued the entire appointment as the team worked out the best way to prepare my tooth; when to take x-rays that would benefit me in a timely manner and limit exposure; etc. The team was respectful of each other and asked each other for assistance as they planned the course of my care. The two names I remember (and the ladies I spent the most time with) were Emmie and Elise...you others know who you are and were equally delightful and professional to work with during this time. It is a pleasure to be a patient of this office practice. Dr. Feeley, our main dentist, and the entire staff are consistently courteous, attentive and respectful. They very obviously keep up to date with "best practice" assuring that their patients receive the best possible care available. The environment is always clean, bright and bathrooms are convenient.

Essex Family Dental is the dentist I have always been searching for. I just moved to the area and my previous dentist recommended a few procedures that left me feeling confused. After seeing the amazing reviews for Essex Family Dental I decided I would like to give them a try. They are definitely worth the hour drive from South Royalton. From the moment you walk in the door, you are welcomed with a professional and kind atmosphere. All of the staff go above and beyond to educate and inform you on what is going on with your dental health. They take their time and are incredibly friendly as well. I cannot be more grateful to them for the amazing work they did, and I can honestly say I didn't feel a pinch. It turns out that I didn't need 3 of the procedures that were previously recommended to me. I am so glad I made the switch to Essex Family Dental and I highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for a gentle, professional and honest dental experience. :-)

I called in as a new customer on a Thursday afternoon at 3 pm with a broken tooth, they fit me right in and took care of me that day. My daughter also needed some work on her tooth, they took care of her immediately. The entire staff is so accommodating and friendly, they make you feel at ease even if you hate the dentist! The office is beautiful and welcoming. I highly suggest this dentist to anyone.
