Reviews

I hesitated to leave a review because this is no way to remain anonymous, and because the majority of patients reported a great experience.  But I feel it’s worth sharing why I won’t be returning to this practice for my family’s dental needs.  The staff is friendly and welcoming.  The facility is clean and orderly.  The lobby is well-decorated.  There is usually a Bible on the coffee table.   I’ve taken my kids here and I have attended this practice for well over a year since moving to this area.  I’ve had several procedures here including x-rays and a few fillings.  The work was good quality and completed quickly.  But I need to say this.  It is possible for a man to convey vast knowledge and expertise without launching into an impassioned shame-session the likes of which left me almost in tears in front of my three-year old son.  I may not make the best choices for my dental health, but that was no reason to chide me and flippantly dismiss my questions as if I was now “past help.”  The offense I committed was that my husband had purchased one of those online aligner programs for me as a gift.  I’ve long had horrible self esteem due to my crooked teeth, even after having braces in childhood twice and once more in young adulthood.  Results never seemed to last.  Now as an adult with my own millennial budget during inflation, it’s not possible to spare the thousands it would take to correct my teeth at an orthodontist yet again.  I explained to the dentist that the aligners were what we could afford at this time and I thought it would help.  He told me, in very harsh terms, what damage I had done to myself and how inferior the company was that my husband had used.  Without a doubt, there was a better way to communicate his professional opinion, which I would respect had it not been couched in disdain.  Instead he emphasized how “bad” everything was while gesturing to giant images of my teeth on a screen as I’m clearly distraught and confused.  His communication was overtly pert and borderline abusive, and I had seemed to trigger something that he felt very frustrated about for some time without realizing I had.  After coming to this practice for a while, I deserve much more respect than I was given today by this provider.  I don’t want my kids in this environment either.  I could stand to make better dental choices online about aligners, sure!  Likewise, this provider could use some sensitivity when dealing with women with low self esteem and body image issues.  If I wanted to be this depressed, I shouldn’t have to pay this much for it.

Since moving to Summerville 8 years ago, I was first seeing Dr. Lennon, then Dr. Griffin when he bought the dental practice from her, and I go every 6 months for my cleanings with Cheryl, who is fabulous!  She has special equipment that gives you a terrific cleaning with a minimum of scraping and poking.  When Dr. Griffin showed me pictures in 2019 of some decay starting around two of my very ancient molar crowns, and that they needed to be replaced, I was nervous about being flat back in the chair, due to my claustrophobia and some back issues, so I put it off.  Well, 2020's Covid meant I didn't want to risk any dentist visits, so this year after vaccination I decided I had to face the situation and tell him to go ahead with the replacement-work.  If you don't keep your teeth fixed as well as you can, that leads to all kinds of health issues. Well, as it turned out, Dr. Griffin made the whole experience really very easy and comfortable!  I now have my two new crowns, which turned out perfectly, and I appreciate Dr. Griffin's & Amy's & Cheryl's excellent work.

Dr. Griffin and his staff are very knowledgeable and service-centered. They provided an incredible experience, for both myself and my kiddos. Highly recommended for all our your families dental needs!

My daughter and I had a cleaning today at Griffin Dental. Our hygienist Cheryl was excellent—thorough, friendly, and so kind! It was my almost 3 yr old daughter’s very first cleaning and she LOVED it! We felt so welcome the minute we walked in, not only by the receptionist, Renata, but also by the other patients who seemed so happy to be there, too! Dr. Griffin is so fun to be around, and we can tell he genuinely cares about us as people in addition to our teeth. That means a lot to me and made a positive impact on my daughter. I highly recommend Dr. Griffin and his team!

I had my first cleaning at this office. Cheryl was very thorough to make sure she went through each tooth and gum to clean it. She explained everything she was doing as she was doing it and made sure I was comfortable. She was wonderful!  Dr. Griffin came and checked my teeth out after and explained to me things that my previous dentist didn’t. They are a great practice and I would highly recommend them!

Dr. Lennon and her staff are absolutely amazing. I had gone too many years without seeing a dentist so I walked in with a mouth full of problems, and instead of feeling like I was being judged like I have in the past, Dr. Lennon and her staff were so understanding and excited to come up with a game plan to get everything fixed. I also got a cleaning done by Heidi and she did a fantastic job. She took her time and explained what she was doing and made sure I was comfortable the entire time. I don't have dental insurance, but Dr. Lennon is willing to work out a payment plan and with the price of dental work that is a major plus. I would definitely recommend Dr. Lennon and her staff to anybody looking for a new dentist.

I would highly recommend Dr. Griffin. Let's face it, most people hate going to the dentist. Dr. Griffin and his team will change your mind about that. His staff is so friendly and welcoming. They make you feel at ease as soon as you arrive. Dr. Griffin is very professional and extremely friendly. He even throws in some humor when appropriate. He made me feel so at ease. He also took the time to answer my questions and explained to me how the process worked. He made it easy for me to understand. I would recommend Dr. Griffin and his team to anyone and everyone! I actually enjoy my trips to the dentist office...even my recent visit where I had to get a filling. I just can't say enough good things about Dr. Griffin and his entire team!

Dr Griffin took over when Dr Lennon retired. He is professional and works great with my children also. They have always loved going to the dentist. It sucked for Dr Lennon to leave, but thankfully many of the staff remained. It’s a great office!

Both Dr. Griffin and his staff make my visit to the dentist comfortable!  I had my teeth cleaned today & I was so pleased to realize how gentle and yet thorough this was!  Dr. Griffin then explained what work needed to be done, showed me several pictures taken, and we discussed my financial options.  I felt a part of that process and that matters to me.  Wonderful care today.  And I love that we could laugh together, too. Bravissimo!

Visits are always pleasant.  The office is set in a wooded area with a view from the dental chairs to the outside - relaxing.  All the staff are warm and friendly.  Equipment and methods are state-of-the-art.  Both my Wife and I consider Dr. Griffin to be an excellent practitioner.  Definitely, an excellent choice for your dental needs.
