I go to Arbour Lake Dental (
http://www.arbourlakedental.com/ ). Can't say I've had a bad experience. It's in the NW, if you have serious issues with the dentist they offer sedation dentistry, and the folks are all pretty nice. I hadn't gone in several years and had my first appointment at the beginning of April. I expected a guilt trip that could circle the globe, but they were actually quite nice about everything.
