Dr. Bates has been my dentist for over 30 consistent years. I consider him to be a very knowledgeable and highly skilled dental expert who can always be trusted to use the proper approach and to do an excellent job. He and all of his staff are very caring and friendly while always maintaining a professional and comfortable environment.

Great dentist.great staff. Doctor Bates is not my regular dentist , I saw my dentist the day before who did nothing to help my tooth pain. I was referred to Doctor Bates and called in the morning they got me right in and helped me and stopped the pain. Not because he had too but because he cared. This is a good man a good dentist and a good practice. I am switching and will become a regular patient with Doctor Bates. Thank you Doctor Bates and Shelly and Stacy you guys are awesome

I was pleasantly surprised when I started going to Dr. Bates. I had been going to a dentist in Petersburg and had problems with fillings falling out over and over. Dr. Bates is an expert dentist in every way. I now have no problems with fillings at all. The other dentist tried to make me feel it was my fault that the fillings were coming out. She also charged me huge fees for these fillings. Dr. Bates makes going to the dentist a pleasant experience. He knows all of the latest practices, uses the BEST equipment and solutions for what he does. He always takes you in immediately on time for your
