December 16, 2021 I was experiencing excruciating pain from my right upper wisdom tooth. I went to a dentist that day that told me it was nothing they could do and that I would have to WAIT UNTIL FEBRUARY 2022!!!! I was sooooo upset I called literally EVERYWHERE!!! When I came across SUMMIT and spoke to the marvelous Joanne ❤️ she told me to come on in! Remind you I was 37 minutes away !! Originally from magnolia but at the time was in Dover luckily! It was about 3:30 pm, the dental office closes at 5 pm I believe. It was such a blessing and everyone was sooo welcoming and polite!! I felt like

My old dentist of 35 years had finally retired and I was in the market for a new dentist. Extremely pleased with the entire staff and Dr Karian. The initial visit for a routine cleaning was great. Unfortunately I needed a procedure done to take care of some issues but the entire process was well explained ahead of time and throughout the procedure. Very happy with the service and experience.

As a new patient, I was very pleased with my visit. I’ve been looking for another dentist for a while, as mine retired a few years back. I called and requested an emergency appointment for a chipped tooth that was causing discomfort. The staff was excellent and very accommodating. Dr. Karian did a great job explaining the work that was needed and why. I’m thankful to have found this office and will continue to be a patient here.

This was my best dentist visit ever. I use to hate going to the dentist 100 percent. I was so nervous to go in the office and get my tooth that was bugging me so bad looked at but after I walked in it started with the front desk women. She was very kind explained everything and made me feel comfortable. Next came the women that did my ex rays she was awesome also explained what was going on and all. The dentist came in and looked at my tooth explained everything so clearly I could tell he knew what he was doing. It was the first time I had ever got options about my teeth and the price of everything

I'm a new patient to Summit Dental, and I can't recommend them enough. This past March, I had to find a dentist immediately, but so many other offices were booked until the summer or not taking on new patients. The receptionist, Joann, was able to get me in that same month, then called me back a few hours later to tell me she was actually able to get me in the very next day. Since then, I have had a cleaning and a filling done, and both were a breeze! The hygienists, Tracie and Lizzie, are thorough, and Dr. Peter understanding and calming. He talked through everything that would happen during my

Staff was all so amazing, caring, and helpful! I called and they got my daughter in that same day, as a new patient for a possible issue. Her exact words when I called, “we don’t leave kids in pain, when can you get here?” They ended up being able to do her X-rays and cleaning while we were there! My daughter has always had extreme anxiety regarding the dentist, she was hysterical when I made the appointment. But they would of NEVER known that, she was so comfortable with everyone there and she is finally over her fear! Can’t recommend them or thank them enough!

I called Summit Dental with a terrible tooth ache, I currently have no family dentist and was hopeful that a google search would land me in the right arms. I spoke with Liz who was sweet and patient as we had no service while we were coming through the mountains as we returned from vacation. I then spoke with Joann who got me an appointment immediately. Liz took me back, made me feel comfortable even with knowing that I was scared of the visit and in a great deal of pain. All and all, I give Liz, Joann and the Doctor an a+, and we are happy that we now have a dental provider that I/we would feel
