If you are looking for a very friendly, professional, state of the art dentist, look no more. Dr. Lance Bailey and his crew do a great job of making my visits easy, quick and pain free. I especially like that they make crowns on site. Plus, this last visit I walked away with a jar of Cowboy Cookie mix.

• Pros: Gentle and fast

This is what all dentists should aspire to!

While in Portland with my husband on a business trip, I had a tooth crack and a big piece fall off, on a Saturday of course! I was due to fly back to Houston in four days and was nervous that the tooth would get increasingly worse and I'd be boarding a flight in pain or the pressure of the cabin might cause pain.I looked up emergency dental care online and Dr. Bailey was the first dentist I called and I left a message to see if they could work me in on the Monday. Much to my surprise I got a call from Dr. Bailey himself, about 10 minutes later! 5:30 pm on a Saturday! This is unheard of! He said they would love to help me out and could certainly fit me in on Monday but he would be more than happy to see me Sunday!? Dr. Marcus Welby would be proud of fellow medical professionals such as this! :) The office was lovely, Kelly his assistant was adorable and talented and Dr.Bailey gave me the first injection of Novocaine that was utterly painless-it felt 'needle less'! My crown was done in office on the spot, and in about 2 hours, i was on my way with a gorgeous new crown, pain free and happy as a clam! I was hiking up Multnomah Falls an hour later! I only wish I lived here or Dr.Bailey would relocate to Houston! Thank you Dr. Bailey and Kelly and anyone who has you as a dentist, is very fortunate indeed.

• Pros: Caring,Services offered,Talented
• Cons: He isn't in Houston where I live!

Best Dentist...EVER.

by SkyGuy79 at Citysearch

I don't like going to the dentist, I never have. That has changed with the folks at Downtown Dental Care. I have never been treated so well by a dentist's office in my entire life. I am a flight attendant for a certain LUV airline and I tell you that they definitely live up to the level of service that I expect!

I was able to get a first appointment quickly. I was greeted with a genuine warm smile when I came in. They have bottled water and Starbucks frappuccino drinks in a fridge in the lobby! I was already impressed. Dr Bailey continued the streak of friendliness and warmth. I felt wanted and appreciated. After my cleaning I immediately raved about my experience to my friends and one of my friends went in. We both got our free $300-value tooth-whitening system. When I went in to get my system yesterday, one of the trays didn't fit properly. They immediately took another mold and had it ready 24 hours later. That's VERY impressive. When I came in today to get my system, they had a gift basket waiting for me.

I am blown away by this level of service. You'd think its just a dentist's office. Not this one. I can honestly say that it is a pleasure to come in as a patient and I will refer all of my friends there. You would be wise to make an appointment here and see for yourself how good they are. Superb job guys!!!

• Pros: Warm, friendly, caring, compassionate, quick!
• Cons: Can't be cloned and taken home with me! :-)
