Dr. Martin is the best dentist I have had. He did a great job replacing a front tooth crown recently. I highly recommend him!

Dr. Martin and his staff are an amazing team, very professional and courteous. Dr. Martin has gone above and beyond, fitting me in on his lunch for my emergency dental needs, just to ensure I wasn’t in pain. His staff is very knowledgeable and professional at all times, making my dental experience as pleasant as possible. Great place and very welcoming place to go for your dental care.

Dr Martin and his staff are great! Friendly folks, clean facilities, good pain management, prompt followup, and the right amount of ongoing communications all make going to the dentist as painless as possible. The level of care for a given situation always seems to be appropriate--not too aggressive/pricey and not too lackadaisical. I've been going there for four years and will continue doing so!

I hated going to the dentist, however, when I met Dr. Martin that all changed. Dr. Martin explains all procedures and is not pushy. I feel very comfortable going to the office. Very friendly and helpful staff.

Probably the coolest, reasonably priced dentist I've been to. He walks you through everything before and during which I think is always helpful. They also have a new pain free way of numbing your tooth area which numbs a single tooth instead of your whole gum (if it's required like it was for me).

Martin Family Dentistry is a great dental practice. They have a very warm and welcoming environment. My hygienist Michele is gentle, thorough and personable. I recommend her highly. Dr. Martin is welcoming and knowledgeable. I always enjoy my experience at Martin Family Dentistry.

Oh man! Do you suffer from odontophobia like I do? Well, suffer no more. Dr. Martin and his staff are amazing. It took me two years to finally decide to see a new dentist and 20 minutes to get out of my car once I got into the parking lot! Yesterday, Dr. Martin made the visit oh-so-easy!!!!!

Are you a photography tech geek? Then, Dr. Martin will also expose you to his cool flashy camera and will give you an up close and personal introduction to your teeth and gums.

On a more serious note, your oral health is very important, so get in to see a good dentist. Dr. Martin won't disappoint

Normally I don't really worry about the dentist. I just need a cleaning every six months, make sure it's all okay and move on....

Except when I broke a tooth in a bike accident. That was not something I was prepared for and it happened the day before Valentine's Day - and I'm a florist!

I was able to get in by noon, have my tooth fixed in an hour (!) and still had plenty of time to take care of all of my flower business too. Dr. Martin and his staff took really great care of my teeth, the assistant was so nice and helped me feel less uptight about my first-ever dental emergency

Dr. Martin is terrific!

I've spent a lot of time with many dentists over the years and Dr. Martin stands out above them all. He doesn't "prospect for gold" as many do, but creates a customized, realistic treatment plan based on real needs. He's thorough, confident and efficient with great steady hands and a warm friendly personality that keeps you at ease at all times - takes the fear out of going to the dentist! I've followed Dr. Martin and have been a patient of his for at least six years as have many other members of my family.
