Everyone in my family is a patient here, and over the years they have grown with us. From cleanings when my kids were young, to orthodontia and more complex issues, they’ve been there for all of it. The staff is wonderful- everyone from the front desk to the dentists (and orthodontists) who see our family. They are very patient with me- I have never LOVED going to the dentist- but they calm…

I have been going to Dr. Brush ever since she was at Willow Walk Family Dentistry and I have nothing but good things to say about her. My whole family sees her and she has treated us very well!

Excellent service in this office. Appointments run on time, the facilities are clean and bright, the hygienist I had was very kind and patient, and the doctor is down-to-earth and approachable. When I mentioned that an extraction that another dentist had done was very painful, the doctor said “I don’t want anything to hurt you. We will make sure it’s handled well.” I got an…

Best dentist in Gainesville! I really thought all my prior dentists were good until I started coming here, within a couple of visits I could tell Dr. Brush and all of the Tioga dental employees operate with a high level of skill and precision.

I had a great experience at Tioga dental. Everything went smoothly with my appointment. I didn’t have to wait at all. Staff were very nice and professional. My hygenist (I am forgetting her name) did an amazing and thorough job with regular cleaning. Dr. Brush was really sweet and great to work with! Highly recommend this clinic.
Rakshaa M.
Walked in with an emergency situation first think Friday morning. They had a full slate of patients but bent over backward to work me in. Not only that but when I needed specialist help that they were unable to handle that day they arranged for me to be worked in elsewhere. Staff was more than friendly to say the least. If I could give more than 5 stars I would.
Kirk H.

I hadn’t been to the dentist in years, so I was super nervous, but I knew I needed to go. Everyone was so nice and there was no judgement – just honesty! They quickly set me up with a treatment plan and when I went back in for my cleaning, it was painless! I highly recommend Tioga Dental & Orthodontics!
