Dr. Wilhite is amazing. I have gone to many dentists in my 40 years but none have helped me the way he has. He takes time to do things right and is knowledgeable about things you would think only your medical doctor would know about. If you want a truly healthy mouth, not just clean, Dr. Wilhite is the dentist to go to. I recommend him to everyone I know. Plus, his hygienists and staff are super friendly. I have been coming here for years and won't be changing until he retires!
Dr. Wilhite and his staff are amazing! They have taken care of my teeth (and my husband's) for over 10 years, and we wouldn't go anywhere else. His staff is extremely patient and courteous, and Dr. Wilhite always takes the time to explain both what he is doing and why. When I needed extensive dental work right after the birth of our daughter, Dr. Wilhite and his staff were extremely supportive and attentive throughout the entire process. As they do in all situations, they went the extra mile in that case to make sure that they coordinated with my doctor so that the medications they provided wouldn't cause negative side effects for me or our newborn. Dr. Wilhite and his team made sure I was as comfortable as possible during the entire experience, and I couldn't be more please with the way my smile turned out!
Dr. Wilhite and his wonderful staff have helped me and my family maintain the best possible dental health. For me, I finally decided to wear braces and get my bite corrected and, with a few needed maintenance procedures, can say that my teeth and gums have never been in better shape (at +60 years old, that is a blessing).We always feel like members of a family when we come in. The staff is so personal and welcoming. Good dental health is a journey. Dr. Wilhite and his staff are there for us ever step of the way.
