I was recently a first time patient at Garine Prosthodontics and it was truly an amazing and wonderful experience. From the moment I walked in the door, the staff was so accommodating and friendly. I met Dr. Boza and he immediately made me feel very comfortable and took great pains to match the temporary filling to my other teeth and when he was finished, I had the perfect tooth and a great smile! I will definitely return soon for the permanent tooth! Thank you so much! An extremely satisfied patient.
