Bend Dental Group

Visiting Bend Dental Group was hands down the best dental experience of my life. I cannot recommend their practice enough. All of their staff were extremely friendly and informative; each person I interacted with took time to explain what they were doing and answer my questions. The dentist I saw, Sam, sat down with me prior to my cleaning, and we had a conversation about my dental history. It was the first time a dentist has ever taken time to listen to me about how I understand and manage my own dental health and history. Our conversation informed the direction that the visit and my plan of care took. While I likely won't be living in Bend when I'm due for a cleaning next, if I find myself near enough regionally again, I will be making the trip back to Bend Dental Group!

Dr. Sam Elcik is my new favorite dentist. It's clear he enjoys what he does and he's very good at it. I got 2 cavities filled and it was by far the most pleasant dental procedure i've ever had - I had no idea shots could actually be painless. I'm very happy to have Dr. Sam as part of our community and looking forward to getting more work done by him in the future.

Bend Dental Group is the best dentist I’ve ever been to. As a new patient, I had a pre-cleaning visit prior to my first appointment. During this visit, the team took extensive X-rays, photos, and talked to me in detail about everything they were looking for and why. At the end I left with pictures of all of my teeth, which I’d never seen a dentist do before! Then when I went back for my first cleaning, I expected it to be a quick visit since the pre-cleaning visit was so thorough. That was not the case! This was again a very thorough appointment, where each tooth and gum was examined and they told me what they are watching out for and why. I learned more than I’ve ever learned at all the dentists I’ve been to combined. I can tell that everyone who works here cares deeply about providing the best care for their patients. I recommend this place to anyone!

Best dentist I have ever been to. Taylor is a highly detailed dental hygienist and Sam has a gentle but steady hand. Highly recommend.

Great establishment, you can tell everyone here is doing their best! Always on time as well, sometimes they get you in early but you never have to wait 15 + minutes after your appointment time to be seen. Dr. Sam Elcik is Awesome! Very Friendly, Efficient and Skilled. Easiest Dental experience I've ever had, two thumbs up 10/10.

I look forward to my visits at Bend Dental. The staff are all friendly and welcoming. I have great confidence in the work and I enjoy my time there. The high level of skill in dentistry is impressive. Every step is communicated clearly and every effort is given to patient comfort. Thank you!

I am new to Bend. I have many and somewhat particular and elaborate dental needs. I have been very happy to have found Bend Dental for my dental care. Each and every visit that I have had has been excellent in every way. The knowledge and depth of care for my particular and general needs has been absolutely first rate 5 put of 5. And accommodations made for me could not, could not, have been more helpful and understanding. So far as I know, Bend Dental’s work, knowledge, sophistication and technical modernization, care, and professionalism, cannot be improved on.

I have been going to Bend Dental now for some time since I arrived in Bend. My work with this practice has only enhanced my respect for their work and genuine care for their patients. I have gotten the best, and most high-tech, manufacture and installation of not one, but three implants. They fit perfectly, first time, and have been excellent ever since, from last summer until now (December, 2020). I waited quite a number of years to be able to install these implants, now finally completed. It's been a real improvement to have these.

The other thing I am so well aware of now is the degree of care required to be COVID-safe and caring about this vital aspect of all our lives now. I've seen no establishment better than Bend Dental. It shows, and feels, in everything they do. Including the high-tech air cleaning devices installed in each room. If only everyone, and every business could, and would, be this good and conscientious.

9/2022: I continue to choose Bend Dental for my dental care. And Bend Dental continues to provide superb care, knowledgeable, what I need no less and no more, performed with skill and comfort. Highly recommend.

I was vacationing in Bend recently when I experienced a dental problem. The crown on my tooth had popped off while I was eating! I was pretty upset about it-my tooth was sensitive, and I didn't want to deal with a missing crown for a week. I called Bend Dental Group (after reading Google reviews), and the receptionist/scheduler, Amanda, was SO kind, caring, and compassionate! She was empathetic and went the extra mile to help me. During the appointment, I dealt with Renee and Dr. Stahrr-they were both fabulous also! They were able to cement the crown back on my tooth quickly and painlessly! Everyone I encountered was pleasant and kind; I definitely liked the culture of this office. I highly recommend Bend Dental Group!

I appreciate that Bend Dental and Kim are willing to accommodate my schedule with early morning appointments. As always, Kim is personable and professional and is truly interested in the health of my teeth and gums. She always takes time for a thorough cleaning and educates me on proper care of my teeth. I highly recommend Bend Dental Group.

Glad a friend recommended I change dentists a few years ago as Bend Dental Group has been a positive experience and welcome change for someone , like me, who gets very nervous when seeing the dentist. Dr. Johnson and my hygienist, Kim do a wonderful job of making me feel as comfortable as possible. They are gentle, kind & patient with me. I love the warm scented towels I am offered at the end of each visit!!!
