Upon entering Dr. Steven McConnell's dental office, we knew that our precious pearly whites would be in expert hands. While other practices tend toward a dreary ambiance, the zen-like fountain and animated receptionists that greeted us at Dr. McConnell's immediately put us at ease. Committed to a philosophy of comfort, health, and esthetics, Dr. McConnell employs a patient-tailored approach to dentistry. Our first visit included a friendly consultation, where we were asked about our dental "goals," and with the doctor, developed a plan for achieving an immaculate smile. Aided by cutting-edge technology, Dr. McConnell and his savvy staff are well versed in creating beautiful, natural looking smiles. Cleanings are relaxed, yet thorough, and offer the perfect opportunity to affably educate patients about oral health. If the thought of sedation procedures has you on edge, fear not. Even the most anxiety-ridden patients are assuaged by the doctor's extensive knowledge and comforting disposition. If it's a brighter smile you're looking for, we suggest trying Zoom! laser whitening. We curled up with a heated lavender neck wrap, cozy blanket, soothing music, and emerged a mere hour and a half later with a smile six shades whiter! It is Dr. McConnell's combination of medical expertise, aesthetic services, and a peaceful atmosphere that has us readily awaiting our next appointment.
