" As always, the staff was helpful, competent and friendly. My hygienist was thorough and professional and she actually laughed at my jokes - always a plus. Before writing this, I was reading an article online about shady dental practices and 'conventional wisdom' really not always being wise or necessary, including the standard belief that six-month check ups & cleanings are necessary for good oral health. Not so, said the article. Every twelve or fifteen months would be adequate. Well I disagree...Read More. So I'll be back for my Oct. check up & cleaning and free coffee in the waiting room. But might I suggest that a tray of donuts would be a logical if somewhat paradoxical addition. In conclusion, because I don't want to forget the general, Dr. Telthorst is the best dentist I've had in many years. And I love watching the travelogue.

" It's a smaller office, which is nice because I see the same people each time. They remember me, and it's like I'm talking to my family. They use innovative and new instruments, so I know I'm getting optimal care. Dr. Telthorst is knowledgeable and gentle when he does my procedures.
