I can't say thank you enough to everyone at Great Lakes Dental! My veneer came off my front tooth unexpectedly much to my horror and they were able to squeeze me in even though they were short providers and on a Friday! They were kind, caring and I felt like they really cared about my dilemma. They went above and beyond! They could have made me wait until next week but they didn't! I so appreciate all of them! I would give 10 stars if I could!
