My usual dentist(see my Dental TLC review) recommended Dr. Benson because my always-sucky gums became even suckier after a really busy year where I missed a few cleanings. While Dr. Benson doesn’t have the happy-happy-joy-joy attitude that I’m used to seeing at my usual dentist, he’s a really nice guy. My hygienist was a total sweetheart and has been with the practice for years. They both have helped me learn how to care for my gums so that they won’t be pissed off all the time. I’m more than thrilled that I have«graduated» and can go back to my fluffy-bunny laughing gas dentist every other appointment now. But Dr. Benson and his staff did a great job of getting me to that point.
