Services
Named by Chapel Hill and Durham magazines as one of the top dentists in the Triangle every year since 2010, Dr. Amy Turner is renowned for her gentle touch and her excellent patient care. She values not only delivering the best possible treatment to all patients she sees, but seeks to get to know each patient as an individual.
To best serve all of our patients, including those without commercial dental insurance, our office offers in-house membership plans for patients who are health-driven and in pursuit of a healthy smile! Benefits include membership pricing on basic and major services, fully covered cleanings, and all necessary x-rays.
Health is one of our core values, and at the heart of our mission is the desire to arm our patients with the tools to live a healthy life. We believe that dental disease is nearly 100% preventable, which starts with regular hygiene visits with our skilled hygienists and then is maintained at home. We are dedicated to patient education and ensure that oral hygiene instruction is a central component of each hygiene visit.
Dental emergencies happen, and can include traumatic injury, extreme pain, sudden sensitivity, and damage to crowns or prosthetics. Should these situations arise, we are here to help! If you are able to call during office hours, our receptionist will gather the information that we need to be prepared to serve you, and find a time that we can work you into the schedule.
When teeth are not aligned properly, they can be difficult to clean and cause problems with your bite. Our office is now offering orthodontic treatment, using clear aligners, to patients who are interested in making minor adjustments to improve the health and look of their smile! Please contact us to schedule an orthodontic evaluation, or mention your interest to Dr. Turner at your next appointment with us.

Love this dentist! No longer anxiety ridden visits. I've gotten first class dental care. The office adapts new technology to make crowns and fillings fit perfectly. They explain everything they're going to do. A bonus during procedures -- love the reassuring banter and music as they sing along with radio !

Friendly staff and excellent service! This was my first visit to the dentist in years. I had an awful experience with my last two dentists and the staff here put my worries at ease. They've certainly earned my trust and my business in the future.

Dr. Gadol and her team are so friendly and knowledgeable. From the second you walk in you feel welcomed. They really take the time to answer your questions and give you the information and tools to help you improve your oral health at home. I have had multiple fillings done by Dr. Gadol. I am pretty afraid of needles and she ALWAYS takes the time to make sure I am comfortable and pain free. My husband and I both see Dr. Gadol and we highly recommend this practice.

I have had many experiences with dental practices in my life, and Gadol Family Dentistry is the best. She and her team are caring and always make my experience enjoyable. For years, I was unhappy with two crowns on my front teeth that I had done by a different practice. Dr. Gadol worked with me to create the most beautiful crowns and I have never been happier with my smile. Dr. Gadol takes the time to explain processes to me which makes me feel cared for and relaxed. I won't trust my smile to anyone else! Thank you, Gadol Family Dentistry!

My 5 year old son had his first cavity and Dr. Gadol and her staff were truly amazing at his appointment to fill it. They gave him their 100% attention and explained what they were doing in a very fun way, making his experience the best it could be. The cavity was filled before he knew it. My family has been coming here for years and it is nice to know that Dr. Gadol always puts her patients best interests first.

Hands down, the best dentist I have been to. I have seen dentists here, NH, and Seattle area, and Dr. Gadol and her team are the best! From the front desk staff to the hygienists, everyone is so very friendly and kind.
Shawn, my hygienist, is fantastic...he is very thorough, ensures you really have a clear picture about what is going on with your teeth, and explains everything completely. He performed the best cleaning on my teeth I have ever had.
Dr. Gadol is very friendly, kind and thorough. She approaches her practice with professionalism along with some good humor. With other dentists in

My husband and I are new to the area and were looking for a dentist that would be willing to discuss the details of their recommendations with us, and weigh the pros and cons of treatment. We had a poor experience elsewhere in Durham; the other dentist wanted to do more fillings than I have had in my lifetime! Dr. Gadol and her assistants carefully checked our X-rays, did an exam, and based on the combination suggested a much more modest treatment plan, with the idea that there are some other areas to watch with future visits. They also had great recommendations for home care and treatments. I

I am one who has been hesitant about dentists my whole life because a visit usually results in a painful cleaning. Not only was Dr. Gadol absolutely wonderful and willing to educate me on how best to take care of my teeth, but the assistant who cleaned my teeth did so with such care that not only did I not experience any pain, but I found myself relaxing in the chair as she cleaned my teeth. That is definitely a first for me. I will be returning to see Dr. Gadol again and again and could not recommend her practice highly enough!
