Dr. James Slaman DDS, PC

Always a great experience! While most people dread the dentist, I know I will always be well taken care of !

Dr. Slaman and his team are honestly the most skilled, patient-focused, empathetic and compassionate dental professionals I have ever met! After more than 20 years of painful and expensive oral procedures that would eventually fail, and visiting no less than 10 Albuquerque dentists, I came to Dr. Slaman with catastrophic tooth loss, in substantial pain, very depressed & skeptical. But the entire staff at Dr. Slaman’s practice have exceeded my expectations on every visit including my first. Immediately obvious is the years of experience. Their level of professionalism and skill, combined with genuine human empathy and humility is astonishing! In addition, Dr. Slaman’s practice utilizes the most advanced and sophisticated dental technology that I have ever seen; far beyond what is typical. For the first time in MANY years, my mouth is now free of pain and I enjoy eating again. I’m very impressed with the fact that although Dr. Slaman is by far the most skilled, experienced and dedicated dentist to have worked on my case, I consider his fees very fair and reasonable for such a superior level of care. He is very generous with his time. I feel confident that Dr. Slaman is the not only the best dentist in Albuquerque, but may very well be one of the best dentists in the entire United States.
I can’t thank enough, Dr. Slaman and his remarkably talented staff, for giving me a new lease on life!

Dr. Slaman and all of his staff are absolutely phenomenal. I have some pretty severe dental related problems and his entire staff handles it so well and with such grace. It's been really great to have such a supportive care team, and staying up on the latest technology for the clinic is also super helpful! I would absolutely recommend anyone come here for their dental care.

OCT 2022: Dr Slaman installed my dental implant today! Another excellent visit. His attention to detail is next to no one! I am a nervous dental patient as a general rule, but Dr Slaman takes great care to ensure I'm doing well! That's why I've been his patient all these years!

APR 2016:Another great visit. Dr slaman corrected some dental work today. April 2016. He and his staff patiently explained and guided me through the procedure and made sure I was comfortable, had lip balm, etc. I was in and out in less than an hour.

Mar 2015:
I've been going to Dr Slaman for over 10 years. I am an inherently nervous dentist patient as my dentist from childhood was an army dentist who was rough and stingy with Novocain. Dr Slaman and his staff have been great in helping me get past my nerves and helping me to get my needed procedures as painlessly as can be done. He will commonly explain that "you may feel something cold" or something similar and off we go, a short while later I am getting my procedure taken care of and before I know it he says "you're done!", Dr Slaman has been great. He has talked me through my dental plan, explained what needed to be done, and has a great manner when getting me numb and explaining where we are in the process. Dr Slaman got me caught up on my procedures after my years of neglect caused by my fear of dentists. I highly recommend him!

Dr. Slaman, associates and staff are all wonderful. Caring, compassionate, and thoughtful. They LISTEN to your concerns and are able to answer all questions regarding your dental health and treatment. They are an 11/10. Adrianne was very helpful in sorting out my schedule, very personable and professional, excellent laugh and personality. Rachael my hygienist is always very caring, courteous, and professional. She has a great sense of humor, and a velvet touch while caring for my teethies.
Having had very bad experiences in the past at my local providers (broken teeth, loose crowns, failed crowns, forced removal of fillings while getting a cleaning); I find myself the fool for not staying with DR. Slaman after I moved. I live out of ABQ and look forward to the 2 hour drive for QUALITY and professional CARE. They care for the entire person, not just the teeth and issues at the time of the visit. You are treated with respect, caring and kindness.

Dr. Slaman and his office staff were able to work me in for an emergency. He was very sympathetic and helpful.

Dr Slaman and his whole staff are excellent at customer service- I have a very sensitive mouth and they have really catered to me. All my dental work has been done expertly and I have had no problems. Thank you!

Needed another crown and every aspect of the service was professional. The front desk is always responsive, friendly, and prompt. Dr. Slaman and his dental staff are always competent, friendly, and sincerely interested in dealing with the problem at hand and make a less than desirable situation as easy as possible.

I’ve been a dental patient of Dr Slaman for years and and I see his work as qualitative and caring .
Over the years one comes to appreciate this quality and attention to detail and best dental care & best smile ;.) !
I’m not so self conscious now , great relief
And I trust his work & care

Wonderful clean environment. The staff is excellent and the hygienists take good care of your teeth.
