My family and I would highly recommend SFDG. Dr. Ankar and his team always treat us well and we value his knowledge as a dentist. They try their best to make what is often a unpleasant experience less uncomfortable and pleasant. Dr Ankar is not only my dentist, he's my friend. A few weeks ago I woke up with a terrible toothache.

I have been going to Shallowford Family Dental Group for cleaning and preventative care for the last decade. I actually enjoy being in the chair because everyone who works there is just so nice and you can really feel how they care about their patient's oral and overall health and their experience. It is evident that everyone on the team loves what they do and where they do it. I highly recommend this group for anyone searching for a family or cosmetic dentistry team in Chattanooga. Dr. Ankar is talented, sincere, and carefully listens to your needs. The hygienists (Laura!) are super personable

Wonderful staff! Dr Ankar is informative about your options and what the problem is with your teeth. He has extensive equipment which allows him to see the full picture so that there is not a lot of return visits to solve the same problem.
After having done 2 implants with Dr Ankar and Cindy, I can say that I trust them to do a complete diagnosis with compassion, kindness and knowledge.
