Their office people are helpful and always nice to talk to.
Dr Vargas has always welcomed me with kindness and never in any rush to push me through.
After my visit yesterday, his work was excellent.
I like most people do not like going to a dentist,
I will be going back to have all my work completed.
That’s how comfortable I am in his chair.

I have been a patient of Dr. Vargas for 33 years. I cannot think of a better dentist to spend all of my adult years with. He genuinely cares about his patients, listens to AND hears what his patients have to say and has a top notch skill when it comes to attention to detail! He always has great hygienist on staff. LOVE the new hygienist too!

I had a great experience here. The team is extremely knowledgable. On my first visit, the hygienist offered more in-depth care instruction than I'd ever gotten from any other dental practitioner (plus she was incredibly friendly!). I'm in the process of undergoing additional work and was incredibly thankful that Dr. Papworth walked me through exactly what this work would entail as well as what I could expect in my aftercare. My teeth feel better than they have in years! Excellent dental care truly does make a difference in overall wellness and I would recommend this group to anyone.

Wonderful all around! My cleaning appointments are the best, Marta is seriously a dream hygienist. I really like the baking soda polish and she teaches you so much in such a short period of time. Both the doctors, Papworth and Vargas are genuine and easy to talk to. I know my teeth are in great hands.

I have been seeing Dr. Papworth since the 1990's. He is a fantastic dentist. The staff here is all great. Very helpful and friendly. I would recommend them to anyone for whatever your dental needs are. I have been for regular cleanings, a broken molar, and had my wisdom teeth out all at this great practice.
