Today was my first visit at West Shore Family Dentistry and it was amazing. Ever since I have been a child I have had one bad experience after another at the dentist which has given me great trepidation when going to the dentist so I have avoided it as much as I could unless absolutely necessary. Today I decided it was time to allay my fears and go for the sake of my dental health. Everyone from the front office to the dental asst. to the hygienist was wonderful. I saw Dr. Yelk and found out the some of the work I was told I needed by another dentist wasn't necessary. He was able to take care of some of the work today and gave me complete details of the work still needed. He really helped me put my fears of going to the dentist to rest and made me feel very comfortable about the other work I still need to have done. I will continue to go to West Shore Family Dentistry and will be taking my son as well. Thanks to the entire staff and Dr. Yelk for helping me regain confidence about going to the dentist.

Dr. Yelk did an amazing job of helping my mother get her smile back. At age 85, she needed new partial dentures (she'd had hers for 10 - 15 years with no problems, but then her front tooth got rotten and eventually chipped ), but everyone we went to wanted to pull ALL of her remaining teeth and give her full dentures. She didn't want that, and I didn't want that for her. Then we went to Dr. Yelk, and he said - no problem! On our first visit, he extracted her front tooth and made a replacement tooth for her dentures. She left smiling without feeling embarrassed for the first time in months! When we returned, she had two more teeth extracted and got new partial dentures, which were comfortable and affordable for her. I have gone to Dr. Yelk ever since and have found the same kind of genuine caring as well as great dental care.

This place is awesome my son loves coming here every time we are about to leave he always asks me when he can come back and when I tell him he says "Mom do I really have to wait that long" :-)
