Dr. Pavlov is great and his office staff has traditionally been very helpful and friendly. He does most of his own cleanings (rather than having the dental assistant do them). However, he recently is spending less time at the office and has brought in another dentist as well as several new office staff and hygienists. The new folks are nice, but don't seem to be nearly as skilled or organized, so it's not as smooth a process to get treatments as it used to be. Also, they seem to recommend quite a few "extra treatments" that don't seem to be really necessary. They don't push hard for these, but you have to use your own better judgment about what you need and what's optional.

About Hygienist: Every time I go in there is a new hygienist working on me, so I can't give a specific recommendation.
