I was absolutely terrified to have dental work done and almost had a panic attack before even getting to the office, but ended up having a very pleasant experience. The staff and Dr. Alamo let me be a slightly high maintenance patient, and were so kind. They talked me out of my fears and kept me informed through the whole procedure. I would definitely recommend them to anyone!!

Any Doctor that's a fan of Fixer Upper is a fan of mine! Dr. G is a total tooth nerd but isn't that how you'd want your dentist to be?!?! I had my first EVER cavity and was really nervous but he made the whole appointment fun and relaxing. He's got years of experience working with kiddos so he knows how to talk adults off the ledge. 🙂 Go see him! You won't be disappointed.
