Who would have thought I would not dread going to the dentist! I know that whatever is done from just a regular checkup/cleaning to crowning or extraction, Dr. Mahlin, Nikki, and the other great staff at Clarkson Dental will treat me with tender, loving, care. Every time I walk in the front doors, I feel like I'm "coming home" to family! Can you say that about your dentist?

If you want a stress-free, professional, kind and caring dental experience, Clarkson Dental is your place! Dr. Mahlin and the staff are wonderful. Dr. Mahlin and our best hygienist ever, Kim, are genuinely concerned about you as a person and your dental health. Caleb and the reception staff are always welcoming, friendly and ready to help you. My family has been going to Clarkson Dental for over 25 years. We would never go anywhere else. We are treated like family. I highly recommend Clarkson Dental.

Dr. Mahlin and his staff are all so friendly and deliver high quality, personalized care. Kim was very thorough and so kind throughout my dental cleaning, taking the time to explain everything to me and even showed me my dental X-rays. Dr. Mahlin went out of his way to make sure I understood everything and even reached out to me after each appointment as a follow up to make sure everything went okay. I'm so happy I found his practice; the only downside is that I didn't find out about it earlier!

I highly recommend Clarkson Dental Group. Everyone is professional, genuinely friendly, and Dr. Mahlin provides excellent dental care. Kim is a fantastic dental hygienist and the primary reason I've been a patient for many years. I'm happy to recommend them anytime friends and neighbors say they need a new dentist.

When my previous dentist decided to consolidate his practice, the office I had gone to was closed and the new location would have doubled my driving distance. Two members of my family use Clarkson Dental Group and are very pleased with the care and services they receive. Its location is less than two miles from my home in a commercial complex that I frequent regularly.
As a new patient, I was asked to complete a very detailed online medical questionnaire. It was a reminder that one's health issues may relate to good dental care. So, when I arrived for my 7:00 a.m. appointment, the staff was ready for me. Beginning with the dental hygienist, Kim, a complete set of x-ray film was taken followed by the most thorough cleaning I have ever had. This was in preparation for an exam by Scott, the dentist. I appreciate professionals who are detail oriented, and the Clarkson Dental Group certainly meets that standard.

I am brand new to the area and was able to get into the dentist right away. I loved how friendly the office staff, hygienist, and dentist were. Nikki, the hygienist, was absolutely amazing. She did such a great job using such a gentle touch while cleaning my teeth. I am glad that I found such an amazing new dentist office and plan to keep going back!

This is the first time I have ever done a review before having any service provided, but Dr. Mahlin and his staff deserve this praise. Never have I met a more welcoming, warm dentist like Dr. Mahlin. I have anxiety about dental procedures and Dr. Mahlin made me feel so comfortable with his calm, caring care. He only developed my treatment plan so far, but he wants me to be in charge of how we proceed.
I have significant work scheduled already because I trusted him completely. He even sent me a hand written thank you note.a doctor! In his own handwriting! I am blown away by his sweet nature and I just know that I will become a lifetime patient.
