Great dentist office! I don't enjoy going to the dentist in general, but the process is seamless here and the staff are friendly. There are flexible hours/days and you can generally find an appointment that works with your schedule!

No one "likes" going to the dentist but I actually look forward to seeing Dr. Lawson when I have to. Dr. Lawson is very professional and made me feel comfortable and relieved my anxiety. Carrie was amazing. Due to an accident I had to get a root canal and have a crown done on my front tooth. What an awful experience but Carrie and Dr. Lawson handled the procedure effortlessly and calmed my fears every step of the way. Thank you Carrie and Dr. Lawson.

I really like my first visit. The place is very clean and staff were so friendly. The doctor took his time to go over details about my X-Ray results, and he was nice and very professional.

Had my initial appointment at Pearlfection today. What an awesome group of professionals. From the very moment I stepped in the office I was greeted with a smile. Jenna was great with reminding me of my appointment and also accommodating with helping me find a date suitable for my returning visit. I had my teeth cleaned by Mikayla. She did such an outstanding job, I left there feeling 10 pounds lighter!
Who needs the gym?! Lastly I was seen by Dr. Lawson. Let me just say, all of the reviews about him are absolutely correct. He's kind, he's gentle and he makes you feel less anxious about going to the dentist. Pearlfection is not your typical dental practice. I walked in knowing I was going to see the dentist. I left out feeling as if I'd gone to visit family.

Great people who actually care for you! I don't have the greatest teeth from years of neglect but they never not once made me feel bad. Instead, they did everything to take care of me and bring me confidence. Ive hated dentist for some time but these folks actually have me looking forward to my next visit. Highly highly recommended! And my kids visit the same location and they also have nothing but great things to say about the service and people at this location.
Thank you for all you do. I don't know the lady who worked on my teeth but she was extremely professional, timely, kind and caring. She appeared to like and be good at what she does. And the folks at the desk are attentive as well.

I had a great experience at PearlFection. Jenna at the front desk was welcoming and got me checked in quickly. Immediately after Sunni walked me back into the room. I have really bad dental anxiety and I was explaining that to her and she was very understanding. She comforted me a lot before and during the procedure. She definitely lives up to her name, she's warm and bright. Her presence was very comforting to me.
Her and Dr. Lawson were very patient with me and made sure I was comfortable the entire procedure. For someone with severe dental anxiety, I'm glad I got people that were so patient and understanding to work on me. They definitely made sure I was as comfortable as I could be and worked as quickly as they could while still doing a great job, I'm very appreciative. Afterwards, Jenna checked me out quickly. My experience was very efficient!
