I love my dentist. Yup. I used«love» and«dentist» in the same sentence. I have now been to Dr. Check 3 times 1.) to have a broken tooth fixed(see first review) 2.) first cleaning(which Dr. Check likes to do herself) 3.) second cleaning with a hygienist The hygienist(I think here name was Kara or Karin… I’m bad with names) was fabulous. She was light handed and took a about 30 minutes to complete my cleaning. Both she and Dr. Check performed a thorough examination of my entire mouth(ya know the whole visual inspection for oral cancers, etc). If you have dentist anxiety Dr. Check and her staff are for you. They are friendly, thorough, very gentle, and explain what they are doing. All in all I was in and out of there in 45 minutes and no one made me bleed!
