22 OCT 2026- EXCELLENT experience with Dental Hygienist - Joy. She has cleaned my teeth 2 times this year. Joy is pleasant, experienced, competent, patient with questions. She very willingly pulled up my x-rays and reviewed a couple of items and described some aspects to me. In my 1st APPT with her, she recommended an electric tooth brush. I started using one and then in my subsequent appointment for a cleaning she noticed a significant improvement in the cleanliness of my teeth. As a result, it was easier for her to clean my teeth. I appreciate her professional demeanor and positive attitude. E. Martin

Had a cleaning appointment for this visit and it went well. The folks there were great. They've always taken care of me. First time not having to pay anything because it was a clean instead of treating pain. Will continue to use Forest Trail Dental as long as its in-network.
