Testimonials
Highly Recommend!
Took my 5 year old son here for a second opinion. My son had a deep cavity and the first practice (we were referred to) told me that he needed a crown and suggested general anesthesia because of his fear of the dentist. We took him to Chestnut and they said a filling (no need for crown as it hadn’t hit the root yet) and to try with laughing gas first. They were able to get us in quick and he was able to have it all done with just laughing gas. Super impressed and thankful for that second option I got. Highly recommend.

Love Going To The Dentist!
I have been a part of the Chestnut Dental family for over 30 years! I credit my LOVE for going to the dentist to this amazing group of professionals. My first of four children just got his braces off and his teeth look AMAZING. They spent the time to get it right before, during and after his braces were on and are committed to keeping his teeth healthy and looking great. Thank you!

Wonderful Care!
I seriously can not say enough wonderful things about Dr. McBride & Chestnut Dental. My son has had cavities since very young & very unpleasant experiences elsewhere. This has caused him & I lots of anxiety going to have work done. Dr. McBride & team are so amazing at calming him down, explaining everything & moving slow enough to relax him. Thank you all so much for making my job as a mom & easing a child's fears way easier.
