I am a huge baby when it comes to the dentist and any pain--I can honestly say that my visit was totally pain free! I normally have problems with the numbing procedure--but Dr. Kleem does it in such a way that I literally felt nothing at all. The staff is very caring and accommodating and the atmosphere is calming. The only down side is that she is a bit pricey. For me, the knowledge that I won't have any pain at the dentist and that she doesn't "manhandle" your mouth, makes her worth the extra expense. The whole experience was positive--considering that it was a trip to the dentist! Next time I don't even think I'll need my husband there for moral support!
