I went to the office with what I thought was a toothache, it ended up being a sinus infection. Dr. Anderson and his staff were wonderful and took care of the prescription for my sinus infection. I recommend them very highly!
Very professional staff, friendly, and punctual.
Dr Anderson and his staff are WONDERFUL!!! Excellent care! Tara is the BEST HYGIENIST ❤️
While I was having a meal recently, something crunched in my mouth, it felt like a tooth broke. My bridge appeared to be intact but I was having tenderness when I tried to chew on that side. I made an appointment with Dr Anderson to find out what was going on. My bridge was broken and needed to be replaced. He was able to get treatment started immediately and I will have my new bridge in about 2 weeks. Very pleased with the service received.
Any procedure I had here was done with care. Dr. Anderson is experienced, professional, and informative. Amanda is the best hygienist.
As usual, the treatment I received from The Gentle Art of Dentistry was excellent. Dr. Anderson and the entire staff is professional, courteous, and especially patient oriented.
Very Pleasant, caring and professional

I love go to dentist 🦷, before I was scared and tried many times never go. But someone recommended me here and I just love it 😊. I don’t feel any pain in the treatments or cleaning . And the girls are so nice and professional.
I have a terrible fear of dentists and everyone from the office staff, all of the dental hygienists have made that fear fade. My last cleaning appointment was excellent! Amanda made me comfortable and quite frankly, it was a pleasant experience. Dr. Anderson is thorough and explains anything you might have going on in a manner that you can understand. I totally recommend him!
Love, love Dr. Anderson and his staff!!!!!

Dr. Anderson is as great a dentist that anyone could hope for. He explains the treatment required and is exceptional in providing that care. He also has excellent staffers who performs great in their duties as well.
Dr Anderson is such a professional and gentle doctor. He eases patients with a calm voice and a little chat. At the same time, he focuses on the almost painless procedures and he uses the most advanced skill to take care of the patient’s problem. All of the professional employees are super friendly, pleasant and caring. They know every patient by name and make patient feel like a family member. My implant experience in the Gentle Art is superb, and I strongly recommend this facility. Dr Anderson and his employees won my trust.

I recently visited Gentle Art of Dentistry, and it was one of the best dental experiences I’ve ever had. From the moment I walked in, the staff was warm and welcoming. The waiting area was clean, comfortable, and well-organized, with minimal wait times. Dr. Anderson and his team were outstanding. They took the time to listen to my concerns and explained every step of the treatment process in a way that was easy to understand. I was particularly impressed by how gentle and attentive they were during my procedure. I didn’t feel rushed or uncomfortable at any point. The office is equipped with modern technology, which made the X-rays and cleaning process quick and efficient. They even showed me images of my teeth to explain areas of concern. The hygienist Amanda, provided useful tips for improving my oral care routine, which I really appreciated. I would highly recommend the Gentle Art of Dentistry to anyone looking for a professional and compassionate dental office. Whether you’re going for a routine cleaning or a more involved procedure, this is the place to go!
From the very first time I called to actually going in for my appointment everyone was so great. I was really anxious to go to a new dentist, but Dr. Anderson and all his staff made it so easy and comfortable for me to share my concerns. Though I decided to move forward with another office for dental work, I appreciate the attention and overall kindness that I received.
Just a fantastic group of people lead by an amazing dentist in Dr. Scott. My wife and I are very excited we found the dentist that does excellent work at an affordable cost. The attention to details and care for their customers is by far top notch quality EVERY-TIME! Thanks you everyone at The Gentle Art of Dentistry!! Keep up the good work.
Always professional. Always courteous. I have never liked going to the dentist. But with Dr. Anderson I have been completely relaxed.
Went in for a cleaning met A.J the hygienist, did an excellent job cleaning my teeth. She made me feel very comfortable and relaxed. I love the way she took her time. I am very sensitive and she used a new numbing product. on my gums.l look forward to seeing her again. Go A.J
Dr. Anderson provides an excellent, pain-free dental experience. Having undergone various dental procedures over the years, I’ve noticed significant improvements in comfort, making my visits much more pleasant. I highly recommend him for a smooth and enjoyable experience at the dentist.
Great staff and great service!! I flew in for a regular cleaning appointment and due to traffic and construction, I arrived about 10 minutes late. Called while enroute and luckily they were still able to see me and complete the services in a very timely manner. Thank you to Tara, Dr Anderson and the entire staff!!
I have been a patient of Dr Anderson for over 20 years. I trust he and his team to provide the best dental care. They are both informative and professional and even though I moved 1hour away from his office I wouldn’t go to any other dentist.
I have gone to Dr. Anderson for 15 years! I will never go anywhere else. I am always treated like a friend and with respect!! I don’t dread going to the dentist!!!
My family and I have been going to Dr. Anderson and his team for over 20 years. Continued great professional service over all this time. Thank you.
My husband and I have been extremely pleased for over 20 years with Dr. Anderson and staff!! Professional and beautifully decorated.
Everyone in this office is professional and kind. I have never had to wait more than a few minutes to be seen. This is the best dental office and dentist I’ve had.
Best Dental office
Awesome doctor and staff they truly care and have a big heart! I am very grateful for them taking care of me!
Great cost and an amazing team! I left smiling and every single staff member was so kind and helpful. I like to ask a lot of questions and Dr. Anderson is patient and nonjudgmental when explaining things. I will definitely be making this my permanent dentist!
I’ve been going here for a few years and everyone does an amazing job! They really live up to their name.
My husband is a client, and he had so many amazing things to say about office. He loves the dentist, the hospitality, the staff and so much more.
Another great visit, as usual. You won’t find a more professional, friendly and knowledgeable staff. Not to mention the office is extremely beautiful and clean. While visiting in the middle of my workday, work became hectic. I was allowed to use a quiet, closed door space to work on my laptop for an hour upon completion of my service. Simply the best!! Thanks Dr. Anderson and company.
Dr. Anderson and his team are exceptional! They make sure you are comfortable and the best in making sure you have a painless experience! They will also work you in fast for emergencies.
I went to Dr. Anderson today for the first time. It was a very pleasant experience. I was introduced to all the staff and was given a tour of their office and set up. The appt I was there for today was quick but they took their time with me. Dr. Anderson made sure all my questions and expectations for my next appt were answered. He has Great Dr. / patient interaction. I will refer my friends and family to Dr. Andersons and the Gentle Art of Dentistry Office.
Nice place and staff 👌
My first experience with Dr. Anderson and staff was top notch. Everything was very professional and the people that work with him are all lovely.
Dr. Anderson is always gentle when doing dental works. Very professional and making sure his patient is not in pain. His staff are very professional and courteous. Thank you so much
Dr. Anderson was great. I had a root canal done on a capped tooth as well as an extraction of a bad tooth. I had been looking for a decent dentist for some time and his office and staff met and exceeded my expectations. Thanks guys. I will be back.
I have been going there for years even when I moved further away from it. Everyone is so friendly and caring. I enjoy every time I go there.
Staff answered all questions thoroughly and took the time to make me as comfortable as possible.
Never been to the dentist in my LIFE and not experienced at least a LITTLE discomfort. No so here. I had a tooth extraction, and felt absolutely nothing. Staff is amazing. I’ll never go anywhere else now. 🙂
I don’t have dental insurance so services are more expensive compared to my old dentist when paying out of pocket but I love the professional staff. I had a filling done and experienced zero pain! Dr Anderson is highly skilled and quick he had me in and out in under 30 minutes.
Had a filling removal and replacement today. No discomfort during the procedure at all.
Everyone was very professional, super friendly. So glad that I finally made an appointment to see them.
Always get taken care of very well. My teeth feel so clean and amazing every time I walk out of the office. Dr. Anderson and his team really take the time to make you feel welcome and valued. From the moment I walk into the office to the moment I leave. I love this place and I wont be going anywhere else.
Dr. Anderson and his staff are amazing! The calming atmosphere and sedation techniques were exactly what we needed. My 15 year old said it was the best dentist experience he has ever had. His favorite part was the Dr and Assistant Patty telling jokes, it really helped put his mind at ease. Thank you all so much!
The key to relieving TMJ pain is easing pressure on your jaw. To do that, we can make you an appliance that gently moves your jaw into a position that keeps pressure off your jaw. The appliance also keeps you from clenching your jaw and grinding your teeth, two behaviors that trigger TMJ pain.
There is no standard length for TMJ treatment. It depends on many factors, including the severity of your symptoms. Since a mouthguard not only relieves TMJ pain but also prevents damage to teeth caused by grinding, many patients make it a permanent addition to their bedtime routine.
It’s possible, yes. Inflammation of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) can lead to pain in the surrounding muscles of the head and neck, which can be misinterpreted as migraines. By wearing a mouthguard, you can alleviate the pain caused by TMJ inflammation and potentially experience relief from headaches.
