Success Stories
"I have gone to Associated Dentists for years ! Staff is always friendly and accommodating and efficient. One year, due to insurance changes, I had to go elsewhere and was so dissatisfied !! I was very happy my insurance changed back. I ran back to Dr Tepe! "
“Staff are great here! Personally, I have been a patient of both Dr. Tepe and Dr. Sands, and I can definitely say the Doctors, hygienists and assistants are all amazing.” 
“I love Dr. Tepe! He is the best dentist I have ever been to. I have been going to him for years and so has my husband. He is a total perfectionist and he goes the extra mile to make everything painless and the outcome perfect.” 
“Dr. Tepe and the team at Associated Dentists, are truly the upper crust of their profession. I’m always greeted with smiles and a genuine, “How are you today?” To say that they are the best of the best, is a gross understatement to their service and care.” 
"I highly recommend Associated Dentists for their dental services. We started going to them a couple of years ago after we got several word of mouth references from friends and neighbors" 
"I CANNOT recommend them enough. Seriously. Beautiful office, super friendly and efficient staff, and they couldn't 've listened more if they tried. No joke. " 
My wife kept telling me to go here instead of my usual place. I thought, what can be any different from what I'm getting? Boy was I wrong. I had never experienced anything like it.
