Report
It was fast and sufficient, staff very friendly, would not change it for the world. Was there for my appointment and didn't waste any time. If you need a dentist Terry Billings is the place to go. After you are finished He comes in and give you a clean visit. I like that. Keep up the good work or I might say cleanings. Happy Holidays.

Report
I went to Billings Family Dentistry for the treatment of very painful TMJ. I already had seen 3 dentists and was not helped. I called, got an appointment, and met Dr. Levy. Dr. Levy was incredible, friendly and informative. That was April 21 and today I am not experiencing any pain

Dr. Billings fit me into his busy schedule to ensure me about an ongoing oral surgery procedure I am in the midst of to eventually replace a prominent front tooth with an implant. Thanks, Dr. B, I'm at ease now.

I have been going to Billings Family Dentistry for 7 years. The practice provides exceptional dental care for an affordable and realistic price. The staff is knowledgeable and extremely pleasant, the service is top-notch, and Drs. Billings and Levy stay up to date with current dental and Sleep Apnea procedures and methods. I would give them 10 stars if I could.
