Greatest Dentist & Dental Team Ever! 11/28/2024

I’m a senior citizen who has had a fear of the dental office since I was a teenager after a particularly awful experience. Friends of mine referred me to Dr. Dean Lodding and his team. I’m so grateful and happy that they did! Dr. Lodding and his team are friendly, prompt, and always considerate. They go the extra mile to make sure that their patient is comfortable. Diane, my dental hygienist, is kind, thorough, and excellent at her job. Dr. Lodding’s entire team makes sure that the patient receives the best care with minimal discomfort. They even will give you a blanket or ‘hot rocks’ to hold in your hands to help you to relax. They’re the best dental team I have ever had. more

Loved it! 6/1/2023

Kiley (?) did a great job setting me up. Beth was a BOSS at teeth cleaning! There was an overall very professional feel to my experience, but healthy professional - kind, intentional, efficient, not stuffy and hard-edged. And I met Dr. Dean Lodding! Loved it! more

GREAT DENTIST & DENTAL HYGENTIST'S 5/27/2022

As listed in the title..dentist's are great as are the hygentist's. One thing that is a little troubling, and I know the staff are required to do so, is to badger the patients who owe money!. We are a very average income family who waits to see what insurance will cover and then pay our bill. Sometimes, that is over a period of a couple months. I guess this is not acceptable. I'd really be disappointed if we have to change dentists for this reason! We ALWAYS pay our bills, maybe just not as quickly as the office deems necessary! more

As a new patient - I very happy I switched to Dr. Lodding 4/13/2021

I switched to Smile for Life last fall when my previous dentist had cancelled appointments on me due to lack of hygienists. Already being overdue my check up, Smile for Life was able to see me in a timely manner. They made me feel welcome from the time I arrived to when I left. I had some bonding work done to fix some cracks on my front teeth, and the team was checking to make sure I was comfortable during the process and followed up with me afterwards. They take great care to make you feel safe during these Covid times. I'm very happy I made the change! more

Excellent Experience Very Professional 3/14/2021

I am a dental hygienist and have many sources for great dental care. I chose Smile for Life Dental as my dental home for a reason. Every team member is friendly and professional. Dr. Lodding's education and experience are impressive. I chose Dr. Lodding to replace my crowns. Easy appointments with superior results. Andrea (one of Dr. Lodding's hygienists) is thorough, professional, and fun. She made coming to the office a very positive experience. I highly recommend this comprehensive, progressive office for your family's dental needs. more

Exceptional And Consistent Experience With Dr. Lodding 3/11/2021

Dr. Lodding is an exceptional dentist. He is professional, caring and knowledgeable. He goes beyond the call of duty to make sure that your teeth are in the best place they can be. He truly cares and his entire team follows his vision which is care, care and care! I came to him with one of my children with some difficult issues and he was able to thoroughly assess the situation and came to us with a patient recovery plan that truly got her n a better place with her teeth. He only does what is truly needed! This is so important to have a HONEST and CREDIBLE dentist that truly wants the best for you and your teeth. He and his entire team are one of a kind! more

My Hero Dr. Lodding 9/26/2011

I've been a patient of Dr. Lodding for the past 8 years. I've had a paralyzing fear of dentists my whole life. Thanks to my daughter Jenny McCarthy, the Extreme Makeover show, and my hero Dr. Lodding, I no longer fear going to the dentist. There is a family friendly feeling when you walk in . His staff made me comfortable and relaxed. Maureen and Karen are simply the best ! I'm smiling big these days because of Dr. Lodding. Besides being an expert in his field,he is a caring, compassionate man. To the few of you complainers I say .....REALLY ???? Linda McCarthy Konczal more
