Kate is great! Unfortunately, the Covid precautions are lacking. Apparently masks are not required for patients or staff members (except during cleaning, etc).

Dental Hygienist Kate did another top-notch job cleaning my teeth and checking my gums. She also gladly shares her knowledge about how I can best care for my teeth and gums, pointing out any specific areas of concern. This paid off nicely for me on this visit, as my gum numbers and gum health had improved since my last cleaning. Many thanks!

Brittany is wonderful - the best hygienist I have ever had. She is very gentle, friendly and fast. I am having to change dentists to be closer to home in Roswell, but will miss Brittany! Dr. Norton is also very thorough and kind.

Due to work from home, I decided to change my dentist, closer to my job. I wanted a dentist that is closer to my home in Duluth. On 11/20, I went to Dentistry at Sugarloaf, and I was extremely pleased with the professionalism and excellent care. They did not overcharge or try to sell me things. Doctor Norton and the lady that cleaned my teeth gave me the best experience ever from a dentist. I can't wait for my next visit.

The office is clean, comfortable and organized. The staff are all friendly and welcoming. No wait time for my appointment and the dentist took his time to go over options with me. The suggested treatment is very affordable. I am very impressed with this practice and have decided to move my whole family to them.

Staff very friendly, professional and helpful. Never had to wait more than a few minutes. Had major work done removing many amalgam fillings and replacing with composite fillings or crowns. Dr Norton very professional and explained everything he was doing, and gave options. Several mercury removal precautions were taken during procedures. Happy with my mercury free mouth! Thank you!

I've been coming to this office for probably a little less than 2 years, and I bounced around a little bit before settling here, but really glad I found them and really love it! The staff is always friendly and respectful, have never had any issue or any bad attitude from a single one of them. You never have to wait long to be called back, 5 minutes is the absolute max.

The office is clean and well maintained, they have refreshments in the lobby, all the equipment is cutting edge and very up-to-date. Dr Norton is very pleasant. I really appreciate that he does not "upcharge" and tell you that you need more than what you do, as many other dentists do. I really like that he has a laser tool to measure cavities OBJECTIVELY and will only recommend fillings when the laser gets to a certain reading, as opposed to other dentists that will tell you you need fillings when you really don't. Also, unlike certain other dentist offices, he won't tell you that you have severe gum disease and make you come in more often for cleanings if you really don't just so that his office can make more money off you. Dr Norton is very upfront with any issues that he sees, but he does not rush you to get things done before it's needed.

He just keeps you up to date with the status of your oral health. I also appreciate the fact that they have a natural tooth cleaning alternative that does not contain fluoride. I also appreciate that they are very respectful of those of us who choose not to use fluoride as opposed to being belittling. Also, add to the list that the prices for things like fillings are very reasonable. And, I've never had any issue with billing discrepancies. Really, a wonderful office. I drive about 25 minutes to get there as opposed to going to one of the many dentist offices close to me, but it's definitely worth it!

Dr Norton and his staff are amazing! I have a terrible fear of dentists and needles and they were able to take care of me pain and needle free! I am so thrilled that he was recommended to me. I highly recommend him to anyone with a fear of needles and anyone who just needs a good dentist!

I've always had a phobia when it comes to going to see a dentist until Dr. Norton. My primary issue has always been when I had to have a filling and the thought of having to get a numbing shot would have me anxious to the point of rescheduling my appointments. I had to have some old filling replaced recently and I finally went to Dr. Norton to have them done. First, he numbed the area to receive the shot and when he administered it, I couldn't feel it at all!

I worked myself up for nothing. Again, today, I had to go in and finished the 2nd phase of replacing fillings and again, the shot was not an issue at all. All of the staff at Sugarloaf Dentistry are so personable and friendly. They make you feel comfortable and the office atmosphere is calming. Another big plus is that I have never waited longer than 5 minutes or so before I was taken in for my procedures.

I like Dr. Norton and his work. I would recommend him for anyone that dislikes going to the dentist. You will be pleasantly surprised that it's not as difficult or scary as you imagined.

If you're looking for the Best Dentist in town Dr. Norton is the man you will want to see. Not only does Dr. Norton provide professional and passionate care, he educates to ensure that you understand what to expect. He's gentle and uses a numbing technique that doesn't hurt. The entire team demonstrates excellence and service with a smile. The office is nicely decorated and always clean. I moved 40 minutes away but I continue to come because I know that I will get outstanding results every time.

There are several things that I like about Dr. Norton and his staff (as much as I can enjoy visiting a dentist's office :) Everyone on staff is friendly and professional, and I am almost always called back to the dentist chair within five or ten minutes of arrival. Dr. Norton gives the most painless injections I've ever experienced, and I've been to several dentists over the years!

His work is top quality, and he spends time explaining what is needed and why. I highly recommend Dentistry at Sugarloaf, especially if going to a dentist makes you anxious. They'll do their best to make it a painless experience.
