Today's appointment was with Dr. Cash, preparing a tooth for a crown. Her dental office candor and mannerisms were top notch. I felt very comfortable and relaxed, and although the procedure was longer than I had originally expected, the time went by quick enough. I would high recommend her to anyone needing a dental procedure.

I am one with high anxiety going to dentist but from the front desk to the chair has been a great experience. Jesse at front desk is fantastic and Dr Cash and the assistants are absolutely wonderful. They are patient, very kind and answered all my concerns with honesty. I am having oral surgery in August (all my teeth pulled and temporary teeth placed) and I am confident it will be a positive experience and outcome. I am looking forward to the results I have wanted for years. I know I am in very capable hands with much less anxiety. I have never had faith in any dental practices until now. Thank you Gentle Dental of Concord, NH.
