  • Michele G

    I had a great experience at Mid Bay Dental. Better yet, my 5-year-old daughter came home feeling very proud and happy after her dental cleaning. She was terrified of going to the dentist, and their staff made her feel extra special and gave her confidence about brushing and preventive care!

    The dentist and staff always take the time to explain everything to me, answer my questions, and give me the best direction for what I am trying to accomplish. The customer service at Mid Bay Dental is far beyond most other businesses.
