I became a patient at West Ashley Dental before they moved to the current location. I was about 22, so that was 43 years ago. Before that time, I had broken and dead teeth. I was embarrassed because my teeth were different shades of gray and white. I didn't know my teeth were not supposed to hurt! Dr. Stanley Toporek cured me of that delusion!
Improving your smile today can be done in many ways. Some solutions involving one appointment while others take several appointments. At West Ashley Dental Associates we strive on excellence and taking a comprehensive approach towards all cosmetic cases. Our goal is for our result to be beautiful, function properly and last many years.
Dental Implants are essentially artificial tooth roots for missing teeth. The replacement tooth is attached to this titanium root to provide a predictable and esthetic replacement for missing teeth. Dental implants are the standard of care for people with missing teeth and with proper care should provide people with natural looking, feeling and functioning teeth for many, many years. Everyone has different oral health needs, however, for the most part anyone with one or more missing teeth is a potential candidate.

For many years I had a problem with my jaw clicking, locking, not closing, etc. It was so painful that I had trouble eating and speaking (the most basic physical needs). Many Drs and Dentists tried to find solutions with standard treatments. Dr Toporosky actually listened and worked on the problem. His prescribed treatment saved my life literally.

This is no exaggeration. I can now eat and speak without pain. He is really a miracle worker. He is devoted to finding the best solution for the problem and will work tirelessly to resolve your issues in a professional and acceptable manner. I can not recommend this service any more highly. I should also mention how the entire staff is professional and personable and make you feel like you matter as a person.

I just have to share what a delight it is to be a patient here. I hadn't had my teeth cleaned in over 15 years because I didn't grow up with dental care and had a slight dental trauma as a child. So you can imagine what kinda work they needed. Dr. Martin and his team are INCREDIBLE. They walk you through every little step and ensure your comfort and understanding of everything. Also, Destiny cleaned my teeth and I'd honestly do it everyday it was such an easy experience. She's incredible gentle, kind, and caring. Her cleaning was so relaxing and painless, like a little massage. Thank you WADA!

I cannot overstate how great my experience has been with Dr. Toporek and his staff. I travel from Columbia to see Dr. Toporek, and every mile traveled and minute in the car is worth it. They are extremely well-organized, communicative, and my smile is looking better than ever thanks to Dr. Toporek's knowledge, experience, and skill. This practice is top notch in every aspect - thank you Dr. Toporek and staff!

Dr. Martin Toporek is skilled and passionate about his job. I absolutely recommend this practice. They are friendly, organized, and detail-oriented. This is for both regular/routine dental checks and for anything extreme/cosmetic. They excel at both. They have processes down, are so well trained on how to ensure the comfort of the patient, and are absolutely cutting edge.

They will find the best tools to get the job done. Every time in there, I am pleasantly surprised by how they anticipate needs and make well researched and effective recommendations. Dr. Toporek himself takes a very education based approach. He explains what he is doing and why it is important often as he works.

The quality of Dr. Martin Toporek it is unquestionably excellent, but the care and precautions in this pandemic moment, give us absolute tranquility. The team is highly trained to protect his patients and themselves. Congratulations!

I do not recommend West Ashley Dental Associates. I went there for a couple years. The routine cleanings were fine, but when you have fillings done they quote you a price and then change the price after the work is done. Their dental work is below average as well. There are many better dentists in West Ashley.

West Ashley Dental had a very friendly atmosphere. The Staff was knowledgeable and DMD Toporek made me feel relaxed. He did a great job on the new crown and I experienced no pain during the entire process.

Simply Awesome! Most definitely the best dentist anywhere in and around Charleston. Dr. Martin is a knowledgeable, professional, excellent state of the art dentist with a wonderful chairside manner. He also has and uses the latest in available technology to enhance and ensure the quality of his work. Additionally, he has a highly trained, experienced and pleasant staff. My family and I have used Dr. Martin for many years and can without reservation vouch for the high quality of his work.

I have been seeing Dr. Toporek and all the wonderful dental hygienists and receptionists at West Ashley Dental Associates for the past 10 years or so. Even after moving to Summerville, I gladly make the trip to West Ashley simply because I love everything about this office. Destiny has been my dental hygienist for as long as I've been going and I absolutely adore her.

Every visit she asks about my family and I know that she genuinely cares about me. I now take my two-year old for his routine dental exams and I can't speak highly enough about how professional, patient and sweet everyone at the office is with my little one. Simply put: I can't imagine trusting any other dentist with my family. :

Thankfully, staff was persistent in calling to remind me that I was way past due on my cleaning. Lots of cleaning later. I can feel my teeth again! They feel great! Everyone is always super friendly and it's really easy to schedule appointments.

I was blown away by this practice from my 1st time there (just for Zoom) and immediately switched over & have brought my family with me! The attention, care and personal touches this dental practice does is above and beyond. I'm honored to be a patient there & feel so cared for. I highly recommend, even if you like your current dentist. we did, but it's made all the difference!

They've been my Dentist for 5 years. I've lived in many places so I've seen many Dentist. Doctor Martin is the best I've been to. Ever. And he has the most caring staff, the Hygienist here are beyond superlatives. Highly recommend them. The 5 star rating system needs to be modified for West Ashley Dental. This place gets 10 stars easily! The entire experience is beyond belief.

Not sure what these other people are talking about. The dentist came recommended from two (plus) work friends. He is a second generation dentist- and it shows. He is professional, knowledge, and efficient. He is literally booked two months out- if that tells you anything. I came in for a cleaning and had been putting off a routine filling. The cleaning was super thorough.

I knew which tooth was bad, but he quickly pointed it out and scheduled a follow-up to fix it. Had the filling done earlier today- I was in and out in 50 minutes. No tenderness, no drooling, and was nearly painless because of the state of the art "wand" they use to localize the anesthetic! I would recommend him to anyone- including my family!

The best dentist in town! After many visits to his office, Doctor Martin gave me a new, healthy mouth. And I am extremely happy with the results! He always takes his time explaining each process you are going to go through. Making you feel very comfortable! Him and everyone in there are genuinely caring and sweet. I love this place! And I highly recommend it! :

Be careful if going here. Although the service was fine their billing practices are not. After making me contact my health care provider to find out exactly what they would cover, they gave me a quote of what the balance would be. I then decided I could afford the quoted amount, paid, and got the work done. I was later billed an amount that was more than the original payment, more than doubling my bill. They used to call that the old bait and switch.

Dr. Toporek and his staff are amazing. Went in for my cleaning today and was blown away, as always, by how wonderful they all are. I love that you are scheduled with the same dental hygienist every time so that you can actually build a relationship. Destiny knows about my job, always asks about my family, and even asked how my best friend was doing with her wedding planning - I have no clue how she remembers all that stuff.

Doctor Toporek is kind and professional. He always explains exactly what he is doing and why so that you feel comfortable. I would recommend him to everyone. If you need a dentist this is it. Actually strike that, even if you don't need a dentist this is it! Quit going to your dentist and switch, I promise you'll be glad you did. They are that wonderful!
