“I’ll start by saying I’ve never been a fan of visiting the dentist. Between the uncomfortable sounds and the overall discomfort, I often felt like a burden.

So, when my previous dentist closed their practice, I wasn’t exactly in a hurry to find a new one. …”

“I never dreamed that my crowded teeth could be address as an adult over 60 years of age. Much to my surprise, Dr. Haywood assured me that Invisalign Lite would work.

Needless to say, my expectations and results were even better than the prediction. I am thrilled with my new appearance!”

This is where you want to be for all your dental care needs.”

“Dr Haywood is amazing. I had a crown that was loose and he was able to bring me in the office on a saturday and rebuild the post for the crown. I was very close to losing the crown upon examination.

I recommend them completely.”

“Dr. Haywood and his staff have been excellent with my dental wellbeing. I have been going to him for several years because another dentist informed me that I would need implants. I started with Dr. Haywood because he does the implant procedure from beginning to end right in his office. Dr. Haywood, found that I had a very serious bacterial infection in my mouth which other dentists did not treat. …”

When I first came to Dr. Haywood, I was coming with some “baggage.” In the past, I had some bad experiences with my cosmetic dental work; this left me very “scared” and anxious.
