Truly a wonderful experience! I came from a large drill and bill type of dentist. Dr. Upton is fabulous. He takes his time and truly educates the patient. Quality of care is far better than any other dentist practice I have previously been too. They hear you and take the time to listen. I didn’t feel rushed and felt as though I had enough information to feel confident in my plan of care.

My family has been going to this office for over 35 years. We have always been completely satisfied. Great care, always respected, and we always get clear details on what is being watched or may be an issue in the future. They keep great records, so they know when there has been a significant change over a 6 month period. We are very grateful to have this practice in Wake Forest, NC.

The staff makes you feel welcome and comfortable. There are no long wait times and they even remember your name. I’ve seen several hygienist and they are all great. Of course, Dr. Baker is king of the hill!!
