After moving here from going to a great dentist when lived in Texas, I was recommended to try Flax Dental. I have veneers and didn't want just anyone to clean my teeth as I want to protect my investment. I have been a patient for 3 years now at Flax and have been very impressed with the level of care and customer service. Chealsea cleans my teeth and does it with such care that it puts me at ease when I get them cleaned.

She is very attentive and pays attention to details. I appreciate her being delicate and attentive to my veneers and aware that keeping them in top shape is very important to me. It's obvious that it's very important to them as well at Flax. Dr. Flax is very kind and patient and very good at his craft. I know I'm in good hands there. I drive an hour to see them but it's very worth it to me. I highly recommend them if you are looking for a good quality dental office with great service, friendly staff, and your teeth will sparkle!

I've been coming to Flax Dental since 2016 and don't plan on ever going elsewhere! Both dental hygienists are great-kind and thorough. Dr. Flax has been excellent as well and has helped me through *many* cavities. Highly recommend!

I was in Atlanta for a week and while eating an apple one of my front veneers broke. I was horrified and immediately called my dentist from my hometown in SC and he recommended Dr Flax. My dentist said that Dr Flax was an excellent Dentist and assured me I would be in good hands. He was right! Dr Flax's staff gave me an emergency appointment to come in the next day.

Oh my gosh! Dr Flax fixed my mouth in a flash and made my smile look as though nothing had ever happened. If I were a permanent resident of Atlanta, Dr Flax would definitely be my dentist. It gives me great pleasure to give him a five star rating. I honestly think he should get ten stars but ten is not on the list. R Williams

I have been going to Dr. Flax for well over 10 years. Everyone in the entire office is both patient and kind and so attentive to whatever needs I may have to make the experience a positive one. Dr. Flax is extremely knowledgeable on all of the latest information coming out of the field of dentistry, and I might add has a great sense of humor as well. His bite guard protocol has literally saved all of my teeth. Obviously I would highly recommend!

Best Dentist office ever! Super friendly group of people. I've been going here for years and I've never had a bad experience. Dr Flax is the best. I don't know if I should let this secret out - but Faith is the best Hygienist in Atlanta.

I've been going to Dr. Flax for a while now and can't imagine having to go to any other dentist at this point in my life. He is a perfectionist and that is a great attribute when it comes to your smile. Everyone from the dentists to the staff are very friendly and attentive. My hygienist, Faith, does a great job cleaning my teeth and I always walk out knowing I received the best service for my money. I highly recommend Dr. Flax if you're looking for a dentist's office in the Atlanta area.

A visit to Flax Dental is always a treat, as every one of the staff are absolutely top notch! I came here from another state for cosmetic restoration by Dr. Flax, and seven years later I am still making the trip because there is no better dental care available. A cleaning and evaluation from Faith is worth it alone, and will make you look forward to your next dental visit!

Faith with Flax Dental has been cleaning my teeth for years. She is so patient and understanding providing explanations for both what she is doing and why she is doing it! She is an advocate for her clients in making sure we are doing everything we can to have a great smile and a healthy mouth! Thank you and Dr. Flax for all y'all do!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Dr. Flax and his team. From my cleanings with Faith, to the smallest details of Dr. Flax's work. He truly cares about the health of your teeth and makes such a difference. He explains everything in such detail and takes care of any problems (bite issues, etc.) before anything else is done. I am 150% happy with my care and feel like I've been the BEST hands from the beginning. I love my smile and I highly recommend Dr. Flax and his amazing team!

My experience over the last three years with Flax Dental has exceeded expectations from day one. The staff is consistently courtesy and accommodating. I am very partial to my hygienist, Faith, as her positive and joyful attitude is infectious. I plan to be with them for the long haul and highly recommend them for anyone who set high standards for dental services.

I always enjoy my teeth cleaning/check up visits. The staff is all very friendly and helpful. They are timely but still spend the time with you to address any questions or concerns. Faith is such a caring hygienist and also very gentle. Dr. Flax and all his staff is wonderful and would highly recommend for both regular dental treatment and any dental cosmetic needs you may have.

I would like to leave my testimony, as a patient of Dr Flax that I have known for 5 years. Last year I was diagnosed with rare cancer. This made my world change completely. I feel honored to have not only a person who takes care of me with attention and excellence in everything he does, but who goes beyond. A human being who sees another human being in his patients and who is present at all times. I want to thank the affection I receive, the support of this wonderful team. Cibele Santos

I've been a patient at Flax Dental since they took over the practice a few years ago from my previous dentist and everyone has been equally wonderful. They made it such a smooth transition. The staff is patient-centric and are really up on all the latest techniques and technology. I highly recommend Flax Dental.

Late in life I developed a resistance to novocaine - uh oh! Luckily I heard about Dr. Flax and found someone that could treat my cavities with no pain whatsoever. I've always been very impressed at the level of service I receive at Dr. Flax's office - the staff knows me and is super friendly when I come in. I get a warm neck pillow when I'm getting a check up and cleaning, and I feel very relaxed. The whole office is professional and welcoming!

Flax Dental is a top-notch operation, well run, and very client-centered. From the moment you enter the door you are made to feel special. Every staff member is exceptional at what they do and the dentistry is. cutting edge. Dr. Flax has offered me a well-designed plan for my (aging) teeth and respects my wishes for non-invasive techniques and natural products.

I would like to give a special recognition to Faith, my favorite hygienist of all time. She has such a gentle touch and sets you right at ease while she uses a laser technique to clean the teeth. It is such a pleasant experience from start to finish there is no need to employ the death grip I usually reserve for dental cleanings. Very happy to have found this outstanding practice.

I Inherited this guy when my dentist of 30 years retired and sold his business. I have never had a worse cleaning. Got home to find very obvious coffee stains between my teeth. I drink less coffee than I used to and have never come out of a cleaning with heavy staining still between my teeth. Both the hygienist and Flax could not have missed it On top of that, within the first minute of meeting him, he commented on my size (I'm petite) and somehow used that as a springboard to tell me he drives an expensive car.

I am not impressed by a vehicle but what that tells me is he's all about the money and impressing people. And, given the poor cleaning, he certainly doesn't care about my teeth enough to make sure they are clean. Oh, and then I had to call them to resubmit the insurance claim because they didn't bother do the appropriate paperwork needed to update the new office name.

I called to see how the 6 month process worked and that i was interested in getting started to straighten my son 12 yrs old and re-straighten my daughter 19 yrs old teeth.(bad with retainer) The lady seemed irritated with my question and gave me a number to refer my son to since he is under 15 yrs old. She proceeded to hang up and i stopped her and said what about my daughter she is 19 yrs old and i wanted to get info on their 6 month process.

She appeared irritated again and i could hear a slight huff in her voice before she said hold on and went to transfer me to someone else. Congrats on the booming business, clearly you are not impressed in anyway to obtain new customers. (FOR THE RICH & FAMOUS ONLY!)

Dr. Flax and his team provide exceptional service to their patients. I recently relocated from Dallas Texas where I was with the same dentist for almost 20 years. I have a full restoration of porcelain veneers and my dentist in Texas recommended Dr. Flax. He is an exceptional cosmetic dentist - and has been recognized across the world for his expertise in cosmetic dentistry.

He makes his patients feel at ease and his entire care team focus 100% on the entire dentistry experience. He is truly amazing and I would recommend him to any patient in the Atlanta area. And, if you're considering porcelain veneers, he is the best in the business!

Best dentist in Atlanta hands-down and a wonderful person on top of that. Well trained and attentive staff practicing state-of-the-art dentistry with old-fashioned customer services. Highly recommended. This review is from a dentist-phobe - if that helps. I know they've helped me enormously in getting and keeping my dental health. I've been a patient for years. I've had to visit a couple of other dental professionals over the years and they both looked in my mouth and said "wow. who did this work?" This is impressive, and also a little odd.

But I could tell that they were truly impressed. Apparently Dr. Flax's is a practice doing dental art for other dentists. But for me its the place that keeps me healthy and where I know I'm getting the best that I can get.

Outstanding staff and Dr Flax leads the class of dentist! I have visited several dentist over the years and never felt as comfortable as I have with Dr Flax. He was very detailed and answered all my questions. If you are looking for the best, I recommend Dr Flax.
