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.

Have had wonderful support with Invisalign through Ballard Dental Arts (also my primary dentist for routine checkups)!

Listen. Before Ballard Dental Arts, I was the most dental-phobic person you can imagine. I'm afraid of shots (I faint sometimes), I can't sit still, I gag a lot, it takes a lot to get me numb sometimes....I'm a difficult patient. Cold sweats at the thought of making an appointment brand of anxious.I cracked a tooth in half out in the middle of 2021 somewhere, and it became clear that something had to be done. I hadn't been to the dentist in 13 years.Cue Dr. Tobler and the whole team at Ballard Dental Arts. I somehow managed to get myself in for an exam, and I immediately trusted these people. They were super thorough and kind about understanding my anxiety disorder, and have a variety of options for people with dental-phobias from blankets and pillows through to medication, gas, and even complete sedation if you want it. Camille turned on some tunes, and we had a nice chat while we did a ton of x-rays. My periodontist, Terri-Ann, even turned the lights off for some particularly long appointments because it was more relaxing that way. I legitimately dozed off at one point during a deep cleaning.My treatment plan was quite lengthy, and my treatment coordinator, Travis, worked with me every single step of the way to balance cost constraints, and prioritize what was most important. His patience and kindness is really hard to come by. He even talked me out of a rash decision to pull a tooth that ended up being saved. I was never confused about what we were doing, and I felt very included in the process.I've almost never been uncomfortable during any procedure in this office, and I've spent maybe like 15 hours in the chair here at this point. Maybe more! Dr. Tobler is warm, honest, and straight-forward about diagnosis, treatments, and prognosis. I've never been uncomfortable with any recommendation he's made, and he's not interested in treatments that aren't necessary. Tinker and Melissa have both done fillings (more than I can count off the top of my head) and a crown prep and placement for me, and are both fabulous. Careful, kind, and obviously very passionate about what they do.Everyone that has treated me has checked in, made sure I was ok, and done everything possible to keep me comfortable and pain free.The front desk staff are outstanding. They ALWAYS find appointments that work with my schedule, are flexible about moving appointments and cancellations, and are always kind and efficient.It sounds dramatic, but coming here has actually changed my life a little bit. All these anxieties applied to every sort of medical appointment, and frankly, it's embarrassing sometimes. The wonderful people in this office have showed me that there are compassionate people out there who really care, and do what they do because they want to help people. Now I know what to look for.Thank you, thank you, thank you! As long as I live in the greater Seattle area, I will be a patient here!

I had been travelling in Europe for a few months and chipped a tooth when I was in Spain. I went to Ballard Dental Arts who had done some work on my teeth prior to Covid and made an appointment.

Cat Wieland

00:49 02 Jul 22

Let me start off by saying I am phobic of dentists just so you can feel the impact of this review.I had an extremely amazing experience! I haven't been to a dentist for 4 years because of my phobia. Not once did they shame me for taking so long to come back to see a dentist. They didn't shame me because my mental health doesn't always mean I can brush my teeth regularly, they actually showed concern and wanted to make sure I was getting the help I needed. They explained all the work I needed to get done in a friendly and calm way. Explained payment plans and that it was okay to spread out the treatments and I was just relieved. I've never once left the dentist with a smile on my face and I was legit happy.Also the staff are some of the nicest people ever! They were all amazing!

Lauren Vaterlaus

Dr. Eggert and his whole team at Ballard Dental Arts are amazing. I have been coming here for about 2 years. I have moved around a lot over the years and find that this is the best dental company I have ever been to. Out of the doctors I see in Seattle, Dr. Eggert and his dental hygienist are the best. Everyone I have seen there are so friendly and awesome.
