Dr.Lavana is wonderful! I always avoided the dentist for years due to anxiety which just lead me to terrible teeth and more problems. I was recommended to his office by a family member and so glad I listened! He listens to all my Show moreconcerns. He is great with my anxiety. He is the first dentist in years that I was able to go into the dentist chair without medication. He has done root canals and fillings for me and made it a breeze! His staff is wonderful as well! highly recommend him and his staff if you are someone especially who fears the dentist! I will not go anywhere else now. They also will see you quickly in an emergency!
