Dentist Chair
"I saw Dr Powell numerous times for two broken front teeth within the year. His staff and him were unbelievably professional and did a wonderful job ensuring that the job got done to the absolute best of their abilities. The ladies at the office did their best to fit me in as best as they could with my fairly ridged schedule and I appreciated how they always made things work for me. I put all of my trust into Dr Powell and was not disappointed. Not only is he a highly recommended prosthodontist but a wonderful human."

'We saw Dr. Forester for treatment and are happy. The staff seems nice and easy to deal with, as well as her assistant. We came up from Aurora for this treatment since a neighbor highly recommended Dr. Forester and the drive was well worth it! I would do the drive again if we had to see her for grafting again. She is very knowledgeable and we could talk to her easily and most importantly, she provided excellent care.'

-Robert McMillan

“I was nervous to be referred for the crown lengthening procedure which requires removing some gum tissue and bone. Dr Murad Shaqman immediately set me at ease with his calm, thorough explanation of the plan for the procedure. I experienced no pain throughout the 45 minute procedure and was very pleased with his gentle manner and professional skills.
Thank you Dr. Shaqman ”
