We would not be able to provide such a high level of dental care without the help from our incredibly talented master ceramists and continuing education taken through the world-renowned training centers featured below. One thing we learned early on is second best is never good enough. At CMR Dental Lab we go the extra mile to ensure our products never just meet expectations, they exceed them.
When not with a patient, you will probably find them in the lab working on the "behind the scenes" of a case or out on the road teaching and learning about dentistry and facial aesthetics. Both of our dentists are proud to be members The Pankey Institute, the American Academy of Facial Esthetics, as well as the American Dental Association.
All of Palmetto Dental Associates' registered dental hygienists have a vast knowledge base and decades of experience. They are dedicated to maintaining an active role in their professional hygiene associations so that they may convey quality care to the next generation of hygienists.
They also participate in many hours of annual continuing dental education, which allows them to stay on the cutting edge of patient care and uphold the high standards of PDA.Patients at Palmetto Dental Associates have the benefit of "individualized dental hygiene" - this personalized care consists of a carefully formulated plan, created by both hygienist and dentist, to help make patients' oral and overall health a priority.

This was my first visit to PDA after moving from Wisconsin and after the start of the Covid-19 pandemic. My last visit was over two years ago. Our primary care doctor had recommended Dr. Shull. When I called the office I found the staff to be friendly and informative providing me with a good idea how the first visit would go. After a brief discussion with my wife I called the office back the same day. The day of my appointment went smoothly, the entire office staff and dental team were friendly and professional. My wife joined us for the exam review. The initial exam included x-rays and photographing

After not having been to a dentist in 10+ years, going now was daunting. The staff at PDA were so calming and pleasant. Obviously I need a lot of work done and it may be years until I am confident with a smile, but the staff that worked with me, including Crystal, Tandy, Sherri and Dr. Shull, were honest, upfront, patient and caring as they walked… through every step of my dental journey. PDA is outside of my insurance network and my journey is going to cost me, but Crystal provided guidance on how to make it a little less painful to the pocketbook! I highly recommend trying them out, you

I've been in Lexington for over two years, and finally found a dental office with staff and a dentist whom I believed are looking after my best interest, and I am totally happy with my choice. They are very friendly, and efficient. And I totally appreciate their attentiveness to my concerns.
If you're looking for a new dentist, look no further, I see Dr Thomas, and she is amazing. Thank you to all the staff for welcoming me into your establishment.

5 Stars I honestly couldn't be more thrilled about entire process from braces to veneers and final outcome of my renewed, beautiful smile that Dr. Cain and PDA Dental Assistant, Missy restored. Their care was delivered with such a pleasant, professional manner that made my experience such a positive one. Not only do I have my smile back, I have… a huge boost in my confidence and I don't feel like people are staring at the spacing between my teeth that had slowly developed over time. That spacing had also slowly robbed me of one of the assets to I my appearance, my smile. It caused me to

I’ve only made two trips the office, one to meet the dentist and one to get my teeth cleaned. The staff is so friendly, they greet you by name when you walk in. The wait to be seen is more than reasonable. This is the only other dentist aside from my childhood dentist that I’ve ever been too and I don’t regret switching. I love PDA!
