For more years than I care to say, I’ve been having my dental work done by Dr. Rex Painter. He and his team always make my visits a great experience. Every time I visit First City Dental, I receive the best service and great conversation. Yesterday, Amy, the Dental Hygienist did a fantastic job cleaning my teeth and even took the time to answer all my (likely stupid) questions.

Changing dentists because of location is always a very stressful experience. Ist City Dental made it the best change I have made in years. They were kind and warm, and made me feel comfortable from the minute I walked in. I highly recommend this amazing dental group.
