A preventive program is a cooperative effort by the patient, dentist, and dental staff to preserve the natural dentition and supporting structures by preventing the onset, progress, and recurrence of dental diseases and conditions. Preventing dental disease starts at home with good oral hygiene and a balanced diet.

I love Dr. Barker and her team! They are all extremely kind and provide exceptional customer service. Dr. Barker places a high priority on working to preserve and protect the teeth I have. She doesn't suggest expensive, unnecessary procedures like some other dentists do. When a major issue arises, she always presents the options for treatment and gives me her honest assessment of the best way to go. I trust her judgment, because she has exceptional training and many years of experience. Her prices are very reasonable, as well.

Experience was helpful because I needed to discuss the impact of: flares with autoimmune diseases, side effects from Covid-19 booster shot; side effects from RA medication; and possible negative impact on kidneys. I was very concerned about the possible effect of stress as I continued with the implant procedures.

I agree with all the other positive comments posted here. I have had three appointments here, and consistently received friendly, thorough treatment from Dr. Barker and her staff. A replacement filling was perfectly fitted and is rock solid after 6 months. So far, I haven’t encountered any administrative/insurance issues. My only reason for awarding four stars (rather than five) is a feeling that my thoughts should be discussed directly with Dr. Barker rather than summarized to her by her staff while I’m holding my mouth open and unable to correct or elaborate. Not a major issue, but worth

I started coming to 32 Pearls about two years ago and it's been the best dental experience I've had in years. The building doesn't look like much from the outside but inside everything is clean and professional. All the staff are friendly and welcoming; the dental assistants have been knowledgeable, attentive, and kind; and Dr. Baker is always very present no matter how busy the office is at the time. I would highly recommend.

I’ve been going to this dentist for years. I’ve always loved it! My daughter went to see Dr. Barker for the first time this week and OH MY GOSH... what a fantastic experience for her. They took the time to show her the tools and asked about her doll she brought with her to make her more comfortable. The dentist can be so scary for some kids and it was super sweet that all the ladies took time to just talk with her. Couldn’t say enough good things about this place and all the staff!

32 Pearls Family Dentistry is amazing place and very friendly people. They treat you like a family. Eve though it was my first time coming they welcomed me like I have been coming more they many years there. My tooth was broke Doctor Barker took me in right after 30 min I called to them. They were amazing she gave me antibiotics and treated me… well. I am very happy and lucky to be their new patient. I will highly recommend everyone to come to 32 Pearls Family Dentistry because every person who work in front desk and in back treats you with respect and kindness. I wish that all the dentist
