We have had such an amazing experience with this dental office. Everyone is so kind, welcoming, patient, and genuinely caring. They have gone above and beyond to make sure both my family and I feel comfortable and supported. Our daughter has recently had some issues along the way, and the entire team has been nothing but understanding, compassionate, and amazing with her. They have always taken the time to listen, explain things, and make sure she feels safe and comfortable. It means so much as a parent to have a dental team that treats your child with such patience and kindness. We are so grateful to have found such an incredible dental office. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a dentist who truly cares about their patients! Thank you Dr Ghane and Team! ❤️🦷Posted on Google![]()

This morning I called 8:20, was greeted by office manager. After explaining my situation of loose upper right wisdom tooth that's swelling making it impossible to chew, she got me in for 8:30. Drove in before 8:30, did some minimal paper work and had my tooth extracted and left before 9:00, as I had my son to give a ride to work at 9. I recommend this Wilson East dental office highly. Hello Dr. Ghane, I just wanted to express my sincere thanks to you and your staff for the excellent care you provided this morning. It was very kind of you all, and I was truly impressed by how efficiently and professionally everyone worked together to remove my upper right wisdom tooth. The teamwork, organization, and compassion shown throughout the procedure were remarkable and greatly appreciated. Thank you again for your prompt attention and outstanding service. I am very grateful for the care I received. I also appreciated the reminder to renew my dental coverage, which has now been completed. Thank you for the thorough aftercare instructions as well. I'm pleased to report that there were no issues with bleeding or any other complications, and my recovery has been progressing well. Sincerely, PaulPosted on Google![]()
