"Went in recently for a cleaning with Stacie and she was fantastic. The cleaning was pain-free no prodding of the gums with tools, which I really appreciated. I highly recommend her and look forward to future cleanings. Thanks, Stacie John"
"I have always had issues with plaque build up and tartar. My dental cleanings involve heavy scraping and what seemed like forever in the dentist chair trying not to jump too high or out of the chair due to sensitivity. My last cleaning showed extensive plaque and tartar build up. I was offered this new treatment called Hybenx, which is like a liquid applied to your affected teeth. After 30 seconds, it literally softens the plaque and tartar so that the hygienist can then amazingly so gently just literally rinse and use the scaler/pick to slide it right off of your teeth. It does have a strong taste of vinegar but you can rinse after the 30 seconds and for me the vinegar taste was worth not going through pain! The hygienist then goes back around your teeth to make sure it is all removed. It was the easiest, painless cleaning I have ever had. And a much shorter time in the dentist chair. There is a private cost of $60.00 but so worth it for me. Also, there is a consent form to sign regarding side effects however I experienced no side effects at all. HIGHLY recommend trying this product if it is an option for you. I will be using this method for all my future cleanings!"
"We have been with Avon dental group for many years. They have many good dentists and hygienists. My current hygienist Jessica does a great job cleaning my teeth. She was very gentle and thorough during the process. She also provided me with valuable tips and suggestions for maintaining good oral health. She is a nice caring person who cares about her patients and their oral health. The front desk staff at Avon dental group are great, especially Steve. He is knowledgeable, attentive, warm welcoming, and professional as always. Each time as I walk into the office I feel at ease and confident about my visit."
"I've been terrified of going to the dentist for years (since I was a child). As a result, I let things go rather than face my fears. My sister recommended Avon Dental and I had my first appointment a month ago. Since then I've been back 3 times and I have to say it's been the best dental care experience I've ever had. From the very first phone call (took me weeks to get up courage to call) with Stephen at the front desk, who calmed me down on the first call and was so nice, to the dental assistants and the hygienist and especially the dentist, Dr. Fagan, I knew I was in good hands. Dr Fagan created a care plan for me (didn't need as much work as I thought!) and the hygienist created a cleaning care plan moving forward. I now look forward to getting things fixed and I'm no longer terrified of going to the dentist. I cannot say enough good things about Avon Dental Group, especially Dr. Fagan. She is calm, friendly, patient, explains things as she goes. She was accommodating of my fears and TMJ issues, etc. The office is very clean and has a calming atmosphere. Everyone I've encountered here has been friendly and helpful. I finally found a dental practice I feel good about!"

"I've been a patient at Avon Dental Group my whole life. Today I received the best cleaning I've ever had. Laurie was terrific in her attention to detail and professional care. My teeth have never felt this good leaving a dental office before! The team there is really top-notch."

"Kaylee was my hygienist and it was probably the best dental experience I’ve ever had! She was extremely friendly, made great conversation and overall made the office very inviting and comfortable. She was great at answering all of my questions, asking counter questions to get a better idea of what I currently do for my dental hygienist and how I can get better. I had a few questions about wisdom teeth and eventually Invisalign down the road, Kaylee addressed all of my concerns with detailed explanation and even suggested most ideal scenarios for my teeth. When it came to finally cleaning, she did so great I literally had to stop her mid cleaning and compliment her on just how great she was doing! She was taking her time cleaning every individual tooth, not missing a single spot. She would also tell me what she would be doing and why she would be doing it which I was really appreciative of and it made me feel more comfortable, by the time she was finished I felt like I could explain the entire cleaning process myself. The best thing about all of this, was even though Kaylee had an extremely meticulous process I couldn’t have been there much longer than 45 minutes which was perfect for me to get back to work! Overall, Avon Dental Group is an incredible environment in a beautiful town with an amazing staff. I’m super picky on my dentists and there are a lot of criteria I look at when choosing my services. Kaylee was phenomenal and I couldn’t be more excited to have found such a talented individual dedicated to her craft in a place that literally feels like my living room. I highly recommend Avon Dental, it’s convenient, warm and extremely attentive to all your needs and concerns."
"Heidi is a great hygienist and I would definitely recommend her. Dr Solof is my dentist and does outstanding work. Go see them if you are in need of dental cleanings and work."
"I have been coming to ADG for 12 years. They are so good that even now that I live two hours away, I still drive there for my dental care. Dr. Knowles is the best dentist I’ve ever had. He is officially recognized among his peers as one of the top dentists in Connecticut. My teeth need a lot of looking after and I only go to ADG for dentistry and cleaning visits. Dr. Knowles’ work is of the highest quality, and he treats everyone - patients and staff - with great courtesy and kindness. He is very gentle and patient and he makes sure my comfort is addressed, and he is attentive and responsive to my concerns. John is my hygienist. Like everyone at ADG he is friendly, courteous, gentle, and professional. He knows his job backwards and forwards and he listens to his patients and always does a wonderful job. They take every possible precaution to keep the office safer in a post-Covid world. The dentists have gowns, hats, masks and face shields and everyone in the office is masked. The waiting room chairs are distant from each other and the reception has plexiglas dividers. Everyone on staff is dedicated to the needs of the patient, and they are friendly and professional across the board. Every time I go there I immediately sense the incredible teamwork in the office. I’ve been recommending ADG to people for years: happy to do so on Google."

"Had a good visit. Technician was informed that I was on a blood thinner and was careful in the cleaning procedure. However, I did not like the brushed on fluoride because it did not dissolve and left a lingering bad taste in my mouth. I had to peak off the waxy residue and use mouthwash to try to get rid of the taste hours later than the treatment. My stomach felt upset too. Next time I will go back to the fluoride rinse."
