When looking at pictures of yourself, do you stare at your teeth wishing they were different? Do you smile with your mouth closed to cover up stained, gapped, chipped, or misshapen teeth? In a world with social media and selfies, having a bright, beautiful smile has become increasingly popular. Thankfully, you can get the smile.
Had my first visit to Dr. Mullaney's office this month since the pandemic and the experience was gold standard. The safety processes and clean office environment were impeccable. Dr. Mullaney and staff were, as usual, amazing. Every step was explained, the protective garments worn by staff were the best I have experienced.

She and her team made me feel like I was their only client. They are excellent clinicians and their front desk/customer service cannot be beat. They are well worth my out-of-pocket network costs. I hope to never have to go anywhere else for dental care. Thank you Dr. Mullaney and team!

My first work with the Dr. Mullaney went perfectly. The end result was indistinguishable from getting a new tooth. Her assistant Tanya was excellent as well.

We've been with Dr. Mullaney for 25 years and have always experienced great professionalism, knowledge of the best course of treatment and overall excellent patient care. Dental hygienist (Heather of note) is also amazing and the office staff (Page and others) are pleasant, friendly and long-tenured. We are so fortunate to have received such great care from Dr. Mullaney and team for our family for such a long time.

Dr. Mullaney and her hygienist are highly skilled dental practitioners with excellent demeanors. The office environment, including administrative staff, provides a comfortable setting. I plan to have Dr. Mullaney as my "go-to" dentist.

Having relocated to this area, I needed a new dentist after being with my former dentist for many years. I needed a couple of crowns and wasn't looking forward to having this work done with a new dentist. So glad I found Dr. Mullaney. Dr. Mullaney and all her staff are great-- very friendly and professional. I am very satisfied!

My most recent visit was for my 6-month check-up. As usual, the dental hygienist was friendly and thorough. As a long-time patient, I had a friendly conversation with Dr. Mullaney while she checked my teeth. My son and I have been Dr. Mullaney's patients for 20+ years. She and her staff have always been welcoming and professional.

An amazing dentist and amazing hygienist and staff. I'm scared of getting dental work done and they are gentle and explain everything. Love this team!

She is a perfectionist! Besides being thorough, she is warm, caring and extremely gentle. She deals with anxious patients with patience and compassion. You cannot get a better dentist in town!

I was especially pleased with the professionalism of the entire staff. The hygienist took a lot of time to explain everything that was involved with her procedures as did Dr. Mullaney and the rest of her staff. It would not be an exaggeration to say this was the most positive experience I've had with a dentil practice during eight decades of such interactions with many dentil practices. I highly recommend Dr. Mullaney's practice. Harsey Leonard.

Been going here for years. The staff there is amazing and super friendly. Not only are they nice but are professional as well. They noticed my excessive grinding of the teeth and clenching of the jaw, which was the source of my headaches and suggested a night guard to aid this problem. Needless to say it worked wonders for me and I noticed a difference immediately! If you're in need of a great dentist, this should be your first phone call. I could not think any higher of Kathy and her staff. Truly life changing work!

This was an amazingly welcome, professional, kind and helpful visit. My daughter has decalcification from having braces and Dr. Mullaney, along with her wonderful staff, treated us with focused concern and individualized attention. We received several possible solutions, all very reasonable and realistic. We're both so very happy to have had the opportunity to see Dr. Myllaney!

I went in for my first filling in my life which I was a little nervous about. Tamara and Dr. Mullaney put me at ease and the procedure was painless and quick! I highly recommend going to Dr. Mullaney for your dental needs. Paige and Annette are also very nice at the front desk and can help with whatever you need!

So I have been a patient of Dr. Mullaneys since 2007. In a world of turn and burn or in and out I can attest to a compassionate and thoughtful experience with every single visit. I like extra clean teeth so I visit every 4 months. With each visit I can expect a friendly, professional, and now COVID secure cleaning. Dr. Mullaney takes the time to not only discuss your teeth but how overall health relates to proactive oral care. 5 stars!

Went to see Dr. Mullany recently. She was terrific. Office is taking Covid precautions seriously. The office staff were pleasant and helpful. I have never had such a comprehensive and thorough exam in my life (and I am 63!). Special thanks to Heather, the hygienist, who was very capable and nice.

No need to worry about going to this dentist during the ongoing pandemic! I've been there twice since reopening, and both times, the office staff communicated all-new protective measures before and after my arrival. Upon arriving, I had my temperature taken, shoes sprayed and was taken back to my treatment room without delay where everything was covered in plastic to prevent contamination of shared surfaces.

Everything went smoothly and I was very impressed with the level of cleanliness and care. All of the office staff are wonderful. Dr. Mullaney and Tamara are fantastic, and I have them to thank for my lovely smile. I highly recommend giving this practice a try if you're looking for a new dentist (I even recommended them to my mother!). If you are a returning patient uncomfortable with the current situation, no need to worry! They are going above and beyond to ensure everyone's safety and comfort.

Dr. Mullaney's office is top-notch. Dr. Mullaney and her staff are very courteous and thorough. Everyone there goes above and beyond what I've experienced at any other dentist office. Most importantly, everyone is very knowledgeable and I always know that I can trust their recommendations. Even after other dentists in the past told me that I needed certain work done, including surgery, Dr. Mullaney gave me her honest opinion and explained why I wouldn't be a good candidate for what the other dentists told me I needed. Dr. Mullaney is such a lovely and friendly person and she clearly takes extra care in hiring others that are just the same.

The only downside I can think of is that you have to be prepared to pay for your visit upfront before getting reimbursed by your insurance company. Other than that, Dr. Mullaney's office is truly a fantastic place and I always leave knowing that I have the best possible care for my teeth!

The service was excellent. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Easy to get an appointment quickly. The gave us the cost up front, but we did not due our due diligence. Our insurance only covered 23% of the total bill. Be sure to check with your insurance before you proceed with any procedures.

If you want red-carpet treatment at the dentist, this is the place to go. The staff are always very friendly and welcoming, no long delays waiting to be seen, and they take time to get to know you. Everything is spotless and well kept in the office. No complaints!

Simply the best! Dr. Mullaney is meticulous, expertly knowledgeable and attuned to a patient's concerns. I searched for a top notch cosmetic dentist to fix my unsatisfactory results from previous procedures. Wish I had found her years ago before 3 previous costly and disappointing results. She identified critical underlying problems that were previously overlooked, and were key to getting a great result. And, kudos to her staff who are always on top of things, extremely attentive, and make you feel welcome and pampered.

My family and I have been patients of Dr. Mullaney for a few years now. I have found that she is superior at evaluating problems and suggesting remedies, not just up-selling dentistry services. Her office has superb follow up after appointments as well. She has been excellent with treating my kids and guiding them through their preteen years. As a fellow small business person, I know the importance of recommendations and have no hesitations in suggesting Dr. Mullaney to my own clients, friends and family.
