If I could give zero stars I would. This practice is overpriced for simple procedures and is constantly trying to upsell you on things that you do not need. In addition, you were always getting strange bills out of nowhere when you think you’ve already paid everything that you owed with the Explanation of changing systems, etc.
Response from the owner 13:03 05 Nov 25
Hello Nichole, we tried reaching out to you to problem solve this. We are uncertain as to what "strange bills" and what "things you do not need" you are referencing. If you still have questions regarding your visit, please know we are happy to talk directly always. Please note your review is really hurtful when you say you'd give zero stars as our team works really hard each day to provide a thorough visit and as much education about your current oral health as possible. Please consider small businesses when your write public reviews. Consider talking things through so the other party knows there is even an issue!

Dr Reeves and staff are so friendly. And most importantly I feel they’re concerned about my dental health more than trying to sell me anything.
I also used Invisalign through them and now I have perfect teeth. I love this dental practice!

Today Dr. Carter performed a masterful 2.5 hour oral surgery on me. There was literally no pain at all. I have to say that he is by far the best dentist I have ever had. I drive all the way from Baltimore for his care. The practice employs the latest technology and equipment in the field. All of his staff were very professional and friendly and helped me feel at ease. I highly recommend First Impression Dental!

Thank you so much to everyone at First Impression Dental! When I chipped my tooth, I called in and got an appointment within 24 hours! Most offices would have made me wait, but they got me in immediately. The results were indistinguishable, and unreal. My hillbilly smile is gone, and I feel like a new man 😄

This is a follow-up to my earlier review. I am still waiting on a check for over $1,000 that is owed back to me.

I want to share my heartfelt appreciation for the exceptional care I’ve consistently received. Dr. Carter Reeves and Dr. Jonathan Yu are not only deeply knowledgeable—with a truly impressive understanding of how the mouth, nose, and throat all align to support overall oral health—but they also bring incredible warmth and clarity to every visit.

Dr. Yu, especially, has a remarkable gift for translating complex dental concepts into relatable analogies that help patients understand what’s happening in their mouth and how to prevent issues—without pushing unnecessary treatments. Both doctors are honest, caring, and consistently provide the best cleanings and service I’ve ever experienced.

Thank you for creating such a compassionate environment and for the thoughtful, skillful care your team delivers.

I am beyond happy I went back here!! I was a patient seven years ago, and had left because they discontinued weekend appts. Now that my children are older, and I wasn’t happy with the other office I was going too, I went back here, and I’m sure glad I did! I scheduled my cleaning appt., and then started to feel pain. They got me in right away, and put in a crown. Dr Reeves was so welcoming, and Dr. Yu did a very thorough, wonderful job, in making sure he took his time and explained everything clearly, and worked on my teeth very carefully. I’m so happy with them and feel at ease going there. Thank you First Impression, where is feels like family.

All right, keeping it 100, because it seems to be hard to find Reliable truthful reviews these days! No cap, but first off, Kelly she is thy epitome of professionalism and courtesy every office needs in a receptionist. Outstanding personality, helpful, cordial and gets you going right away an exceptional communicator. So This was my 3rd. visit to this office. 1st time great 👍🏿 2nd. Not so good. I was irate with the lack of preparation / organization ahead of my appointment and the lack of patience and empathy from the doctor and his assistant. So much so that I had an out of character out burst at them for their behavior and lack of professionalism from them for the way we're treating me! And after a conversation with them afterwards things got back in the track! So for this third visit I was very apprehensive as to what this visit was going to be like and it turned out to be fantastic.. they totally redeemed themselves and now have my recommendation for new customers. Thanks! 😊

This practice is quite busy and popular for a reason. State of the art technology, but most importantly the doctors care. Dr. Reeves is a truly amazing and caring dentist. However, since the practice is so busy, he had to hire other dentists to help out. In the past to be honest, the other dentists Dr. Reeves hired, weren't as talented as Dr. Reeves. Disappointing to say the least. However, his most recent hire Dr. Yu, is probably just as caring and talented as Dr. Reeves. I can finally say that even when I can't see Dr. Reeves for appointments, I know I'm still in good hands. Bravo.

First Impression Dental truly lives up to its name! From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and at ease. The front desk staff was friendly and professional, setting the tone for a great visit.

As a Veteran patient, it means a lot to feel not only cared for but also respected and honored — and that’s exactly how I feel every time I come here.

Krystle, my hygienist, is amazing — gentle, thorough, and incredibly kind. She explains everything clearly and makes sure I’m comfortable throughout the entire cleaning. My teeth have never felt better!

Dr. Reeves is equally outstanding — knowledgeable, compassionate, and genuinely invested in her patients’ well-being. She takes the time to listen, answer questions, and provide care that feels personal and trustworthy.

I’m so grateful to have found First Impression Dental. It’s rare to find a place that delivers top-quality care with such heart. Highly recommend to anyone — especially fellow Veterans looking for a dental team that truly sees and appreciates you.

State of the art, compassionate and painless treatment. I’ve seen Dr. Reeves for several years for regular exams but finally needed some major, expensive work. But Dr. Reeves determined a different procedure would better meet my needs now and in the long-run, and it was considerably less costly. I especially appreciate that as he performed each step of the procedure he continually talked about what he was doing and, importantly, why. Yes, it was an effective anxiety-reducing distraction, but it was also an interesting education. If I have many more procedures with him, I’ll probably learn enough to take the State dental licensing exam!

I hate the dentist. I mean, I really really hate the dentist. It’s been one of my longest running phobias, and sources of anxiety. When I started to have pain in my mouth, I knew I didn’t have much choice so I asked around and was immediately recommended to first impressions dental. I had a feeling I was probably dealing with a different experience when I called to make my appointment as a new patient and that was only reinforced the day that I arrived. The staff and technicians were friendly, empathetic, and did their utmost to put me at ease. The office was modern and clean, and very aesthetically pleasing. The dentist himself, Dr. Carter Reeves, was probably one of the most unique dentists I have ever met. He reinforced that he was going to help me and get me out of pain as quickly as possible and during the entire procedure was quick with jokes or stories or just about anything to keep my mind off of what was happening. You could really tell that he was paying attention to my mood and body language And was tailoring the experience to make it as easy as possible for me. I can see now why so many people told me that his practice specializes in people with dentist anxiety, and phobias. I still don’t enjoy going to the dentist. (show me anyone who does) But I wouldn’t think twice about going back to first impressions, and I would recommend anyone do the same.
