- TATeresa AlexanderDec 7, 20255.0In 2003 I got my second set of dentures, now in 2025 I've just got my third set in my denture time. Of course in that time span there's facial changes. It's taking me a minute my top is fitting perfectly. I'm still working on the bottom. They are hitting areas that's not been touched in 22yrs, so there the getting used to the new set that's just normal. The staff is giving me all the adjustment time I've needing. They have been nothing less than very nice, cooperative to my needs to make my new dentures work for me. I highly recommend Today's Family Dental for you new set of dentures whether it's your first pair or the fifth. Thank you guy's very much.
- STScott ThomasDec 5, 20255.0Best service I’ve ever had at a Dentist every appointment. From the time of appointment until you leave they make sure you’re as comfortable as possible.
- SWSarah WattsDec 4, 20255.0This is the best dentist I have ever been to. They were able to get me in for an emergency appointment and then get me in the same week to finish the root canal. I did not feel judged at all for not going to the dentist for years, and the dentist is nice, funny, and very direct which I really appreciate. 10/10 will recommend to anyone

I felt like a new member of the family. Greeting, gift bag , more info and time for me questions in office. On down to examination room. So friendly talking, me through each exam.

- CLCandace LangNov 22, 20255.0I recently had a new patient visit to this practice. As soon as I walked in, I was warmly greeted by the receptionist and invited to help myself to snacks and a drink. The waiting area was the most well decorated and inviting space I've seen. I was impressed that there was a toy/food drive happening. This practice seems to want to try to give back as much as they can to the community. The welcome gift bag was a lovely touch. Dr. Parikh was thorough and knowledgeable. I am looking forward to continuing my care here!
Frequently Asked Questions About Today's Family Dental General Dentistry
Why are my teeth sensitive?
Sensitive teeth often come from the fact that your gums have slightly receded. This recession of the gum line allows the underlying dentin to show through which allows water and food easier access to the sensitive nerve. To manage this, there are a number of toothpastes, gels and even some dental procedures that can be applied. Speak to us in more detail if you have very sensitive teeth.
