“Whether you need emergency dental care or routine treatment, I highly recommend UDC.”

C.S. N.

“They have always been so kind to me and helpful. I’ve had so many walk-ins and they get me on that same day. Payment is never an issue.”

Lucky T.

“One of the best dentist offices I have been to. My dentist had a very light touch. Took his time, but was also quick. I didn’t feel rushed. Very professional, personable, and reassuring.”

Ashleen F.

“Very friendly and pain-free experience. I’ve never looked forward to going to a dentist, but now I do. I’ve been going there for over 5 years and I wouldn't go anywhere else.”

Reggie S.

“They saw me on a Friday, their last client of the evening, at just a few minute's notice. I chose to get an extraction but they gave me three options and they were great. The best dentist I've ever been to.”

Ross H.

“This is the best dentist I’ve ever been to, no cap! Excellent service, very friendly and professional. If you have any issues with your teeth, go see them; they'll take good care of you!”

Kevin

“This was my first time here, and the experience was great. The staff members were friendly, gentle, and attentive. Dr Wayland was awesome. I didn’t feel a thing, and she educated me along the way to make sure I was comfortable with proceeding. So grateful for their care in my time of dental work.”

Shontay

“The staff and nurses are incredibly nice, they explain things very well, extremely professional, and the doctor was an awesome guy. Their main concern is making sure you feel comfortable and confident in the work they do. Wonderful place!”

Tim

“They did an amazing job. They had to work on pretty much every single one of my teeth. I never thought I'd have a good smile again, and they completely knocked it out of the park. Thank you guys so much.”

Bryce

“I took my oldest daughter here for an urgent dental issue when no one else could see her promptly. They got her in immediately, and we had such a positive experience that our whole family has now become patients of this office. They are fast, efficient, and great with kids! The staff is always so friendly and caring. I recommend them to everyone!”
