Testimonials

I’ve been a patient here at Dr. Little‘s office for a number of years. However I haven’t been in for a couple of years due to retiring and trying to get dental insurance. When I came into the office I was greeted as if I had never been gone. I had A couple of x-rays, teeth cleaning, teeth polishing, and set up an appointment for six months from now. Dr. Little came in to meet with me and The dental hygienist. My x-rays did not show any problems and we had a good discussion. I recommend this dental office to anyone who is looking for dental care. This has always been a supportive environment for me and I’m sure for everyone else who comes for care here.
