Avanta Dental of Yakima

I fell and broke my two top front teeth in half and the fragments were lost. I was panicking.
Dr. Tawil did my root canals for both teeth and my crowns. It was an excellent job, no one can tell that they are crowns! She was also very understanding. The lab also did a great job. I am very thankful!!

I’m new to Yakima and Avanta Dental handled me with care and exceeded beyond expectations, going to a new dentist can be nerve racking sometimes but for me I instantly knew I was in good hands. From the moment I came in, I believe his name was Allan, was super efficient and nice at the front desk and really gave me reassurance the rest of my visit will be just as good as his service.

I had my first appointment yesterday with Avanta Dental. It was a very nice expireance between the friendly staff clean/nice dental office. One of the nicest I've been to. Dr Tawil and Jasmin did a great job.

Allan at the front is super helpful and very friendly, always making sure we are taken care of! The assistants are always gentle and caring. By far the best experience I have ever had. Definitely will be recommending this place to my friends and family!

I wasn’t going to leave a review but I guess since no one called me to address the issue after I had spoken to the front desk I’m going to have to. The staff here are SUPER friendly, the atmosphere is amazing, and they literally make you feel at home. BUT I have one problem, I was told I had 10 cavities and I literally was going to cry. Ever since I had my son a year ago my calcium level has been so low that I’ve been more prone to cavities. I had gone in FOR JUST A CLEANING but they wanted me to fixed these cavities ASAP. I don’t have dental insurance so I pay out of pocket for these things. They quoted me around $2000-$3000 i dont remember but I left so heart broken from the amount of cavities they told me I had. Long story short I went to Chicago where I’m originally from and went to my cousins dental office and showed them the paper work they gave me with the 10 cavities they spoke about….. Tell me why I only needed 3 of those “10” cavities to actually be fixed because the others weren’t really cavities or they didn’t need to be touched at all. What were they going to do with my teeth if I had allowed them do fixed the 10 that they calm I had? As much as I loved this place it gave me the ick after finding out what they did. For that I’m giving them a 1 star and because when I addressed the issue with the front desk they never called me back to explain themselves.

It was my first time coming here so I wasn’t too familiar with the place, I went in to make the appointment in person and Allan at the front desk was very knowledgeable and easily helped me get to what I wanted. Once I actually had my appointment, everyone else was also very professional and helpful. 10/10 recommend

Dr. Ferguson and team made me feel comfortable and did excellent work on my smile! I have had a teeth cleaning, crown and single tooth implant, all completed professionally.

I highly recommend Avanta Dental. I was scheduled with Dr. McDonald and assisted by Wendolee. Both were very knowledgeable, extremely aware of my dental anxiety; and offered sincere empathy, soothing my tattered nerves. (Laughing gas helped too!😉)

The doctor was very skilled and in about 2 hours I had a new tooth! Amazing. Everything about my experience was outstanding! From the moment the front desk staff greeted me, to walking me out the door afterward.

If you’re looking for a dental clinic which will meet your dental needs, recognize your time is valuable too, and treat you like an important client/patient; instead of like a number, inconvenience, or dollar sign….

This is your clinic!

Thank you Advanta, Dr. McDonald and Wendolee… you made my mouth and my fears feel better.😉

Cindy is my dental hygienist and does a great job for me! She listens to my needs and has the professional skills required in this industry. My teeth are personal to me and people like her are hard to find.

Unfortunately I did not have a great experience as many people have had based on the reviews.
I’ve been a patient at Avanta for more than 1 year. There is a massive issue with overbooking the staff. During your specific appointment time the doctor may have 2 other patients at the same time sitting in different exam rooms so he goes from one to the other every few minutes.
I recently went for a specific tooth complaint, I was told I needed X treatment and I trusted them (mistake) and agreed. Weeks go by and I have the same pain! I go back again to find out they treated the WRONG tooth. I agree again on a new treatment this time
on the affected tooth (mistake again) and after paying a huge sum of money and HOURS of waiting while they overbook the appointments (to the point of waiting almost 3 hours in an appt that should be 45 min), here I am with the SAME pain again minus hundreds of dollars and hours of work.
Definitely not coming back. Get a second opinion if you are not sure.
