In patients' words
"Dr. Short and her staff are absolutely the best!! I can't tell you how much anxiety I had built up from previous Dental experiences, and their communication, chair-side manner and expertise made it the best Dental experience I have had!!!"
— Google Review (via Exa), 5 out of 5, 2026-02-25"Paid $505 cash for little to no services, no recommendations or education they deferred me to another specialty without even recommending a specific place. Avoid this place if you don't want to waste your money."

— Birdeye Review by Orah Brown, 8 months ago"Dr. Short and team are the best. I feel so confident in their holistic practices. Even though I have huge dental anxiety, they always go above and beyond to make sure I know exactly what each step is and that it is as pain free and non-toxic as possible."
