They are very prompt every time I come in for my 6 month examination/ cleaning-- maybe a 5 minute wait, nothing like the 20-30 minute wait I have at my primary doctor.I love that they use a laser and a water pick which cuts the scrapping way down. The staff has always been pleasant and friendly with me. A great dental experience.

Wow!!! So glad that my husband and I found Ballard Dental Arts when we moved to Seattle. Such amazing people and incredibly skilled. I have difficult teeth and this facility has changed my whole outlook on going to the dentist. Would highly recommend especially if you have teeth that require extra time and attention. Dr. Tobler and Melissa are amazing and I actually look forward to visiting with rather than avoiding the dentist at all costs like I used to. Thanks again and you’ve got a loyal customer here for life. As long as I’m in the state of Washington I’ll be coming here.

I have dental anxiety so am really picky about where I go for cleanings and dental work. I’ve always felt comfortable and relaxed at Ballard Dental Arts. I highly recommend them.

Robyn Morris

19:10 19 Jun 23

This place is incredible. I have a massive fear of dentists that kept me from getting regular cleanings for a while. Last year I stepped into this office and was instantly greeted by the kindest and most empathetic dentistry office staff I’ve ever met. Everyone is so kind about taking breaks when you need, explaining what’s happening, and they even ask if you’ve had a perilous bad experience at a dentist and offer s options to help ease some of that anxiety. 10/10. ♥️

Samantha

22:12 16 Jun 23

I've never had more fun at a dental office. Everyone is bright and really cares about their job. I've been coming here for 8 years and had a LOT of work done. I think I've had every dentist and they're all good. Special props to Travis in the front office!

Kristen K

19:36 08 Jun 23

I’ve been going to Ballard Dental Arts before it was even BDA lol. My hygienists have been Jenny and Erin who have now both left so I am very sad about that. They don’t force services on you and are efficient. I have Dr Tobler who is great!

My family has been going to Ballard Dental Arts for 5+ years and have been very happy with the care and service we have received.

Wendy Deaton

Our decade of dental care here has been nothing but great. Their staff is professional and caring, the environment is calming. A special shout-out to the dental hygenists (Jennifer!) with whom we spend most of our time during routine visits. They are the best! Of course, we wouldn't return if not for the excellent dentists themselves, but that's a 'given'.

John Kleinkopf

01:03 23 Dec 22

I became a patient of Ballard Dental Arts in 2020 because I lived nearby. During a routine cleaning, a small oral issue was discovered, and my kind and helpful dentist alerted me to the situation. He took his time to clearly advise me on what had happened and how long I could let it remain untreated. When I was ready to handle it, I was given quick and accurate estimates for the required procedure. The work was done quickly and exactly as described, and the improvement since has been incredible. I hadn't realized how drastic the change would feel and would have addressed the work far earlier if I'd been aware of how much better things could get.Ballard Dental Arts is a wonderful practice. The dentists are friendly and helpful, and the cleaning process is quick, easy, and comfortable. I may have started going here because it was convenient, but the fact that I continue as a patient despite having moved across town over a year ago is a testament to how glad I am to have found them.
