“I cannot thank The Thatch Dental Practice enough for his care and service to ensure my front tooth was replaced with a natural-looking implant. The procedure was painless and so efficient,” Mrs. A

The Thatch Dental Practice has the best staff who has helped me through my entire treatment, I was made aware of each step and what was being done during each visit. They were only a phone call away when I had a question or needed to reschedule an appointment. The practice is very clean and well kept, I would highly recommend their services to anyone and everyone.

Excellent, friendly and professional staff providing a high quality of care with a good work ethic. A pleasure to be a patient there and would not consider going anywhere else. Highly recommended!!
