The waiting room was full so I expected to be there a good while. However, by 9:30 was back in a room and was seen by the doctor. Fortunately it was nothing serious and they were able to take care of the problem immediately. The doctor, dental assistant and hygienist were incredibly nice and very professional. I get very anxious when going to the dentist but they all made me feel very comfortable. Kelsie was great! The entire staff was top notch. I’ve finally found a dentist that I feel comfortable with. Highly recommended Birmingham Family Dental.

August 24, 2023I went in under emergency circumstances with a terrible toothache needing an extraction. I got there pretty early in the morning and was called back in a timely manner (today... read more is a Saturday) although it was super busy and I didn’t have an appointment. The front desk staff is friendly, helpful, and orderly/organized. The dental assistants and doctors were also friendly, knowledgeable, and very personable. They did my x-rays and quickly knew the best care that I needed. There was a bit of a wait time for me to see the oral surgeon (which was understandable), but once he gave me the numbing medication, the extraction was quick and seamless. I highly recommend this dental office..great service overall!!

August 20, 202310 out of 10 highly recommend!!! I love my doctor and the team members here! I’ve been with them since moving back to Birmingham in 2012. I was very anxious... read more about choosing a dental office especially then because I didn’t have insurance. Well let me tell you, this office is everything! They were affordable then and have grown with me as I’ve grown. I’ve watched the teammates grow and excel in their craft and even the business and building grow. When you treat people right, you will excel. They are friendly, courteous, and on top of everything. Many times I’ve over paid and received unexpected checks in the mail. They are open 7 days a week and will try their best to fit you in. A little tip, schedule your cleanings in advance and after every appointment. They are usually booked solid because they are the best. I talk about my doctor so often people ask me where I go 😂 I had a cleaning today and I love how my mouth feels. It was quick and painless. I truly love my experience every single time I go!

July 6, 2023In 2009, one of the dentists fixed my back molar with a root canal.

That same tooth that had the root canal failed and Birmingham Family Dental got me in immediately. Tasha and Dr. Payne are amazing. I cannot thank them enough.
