Dentistry at LaSalle - reviews

"Great first experience with this clinic. I've had a few terrible experiences at dentists and this time I left pain free. I had to have a filling redone. The first time it was done it was at another clinic and I had a month's worth of pain after. Today, I had to have it redone. No pain after the freezing wore off. Clinic staff are friendly and polite as well as both dentists and hygienists I saw."
