Testimonials

Everyone at Back Mountain Dental seems to really enjoy their jobs and the interaction with their patients. My family and I have been there about five times now and at each visit, everyone was friendly and informative. They use the latest in dental technology and strive to minimize patient discomfort. I left my old dentist because they seemed to operate behind the times and did not offer a warm and friendly atmosphere. I am so glad I switched.

Going to the dentiist is not always my favorite thing to do but I have to admit that this has been a very positive experience. Dr. DeFinnis and staff are pleasant, easy to talk with and the whole dental experience was outstanding. I was not looking forward to having the crowns and spending about 2hrs but Dr. Definnis explained as he did things and showed me how they make the crowns and have them all done in one appointment. I would highly recommend Back MT Dental to all.

My personal image and self worth have been improved and positively effected by the professional dental care provided by Dr. DeFinnis and his staff. Skill levels vary amongst professions and it is my personal opinion that Dr. DeFinnis and his staff provide state-of-the-art perfection in dental care.

I dreaded going to the dentist. I would get nervous and overwhelmed when I would sit in the dentist's chair. This is the most comfortable I have felt in my life. I look forward to going to your office and feel no pain when I am getting work done. The staff is very nice and caring also.

When I told Dr Definnis I wanted to improve the look of my smile, I knew I could count on him to give me what I was asking for. He suggested I first whiten my teeth and then to create a really natural and great smile, veneers.

I have tried to whiten my teeth both professionally and at home. All I ever really seemed to get was a little whiter, a lot of sensitivity and a sore jaw. When Dr Definnis suggested a new whitening product, AcquaBrite, I was very hesitant. I am so glad I took his advice. I am beyond thrilled with the results. After years of stains and discoloration from drinking coffee, I finally have WHITE teeth and the whitening process was very comfortable. I had very little if any sensitivity (I have very sensitive teeth) and I also did not have a sore jaw from isolating my jaw for an hour (like most other products).

Dr Definnis then finished my smile with veneers. My smile is better than I expected and what is the most important it is so natural looking. As someone said to me "It looks like you take really good care of your teeth now". I have always taken good care of my teeth, but now it looks it too. I have such confidence when I smile all thanks to Dr Definnis.

Thanks Doc,
L.M.

My wife and I moved 30 miles away from the dental office, but because of the atmosphere we keep coming back.

Back Mountain Dental is by far the epitome of friendliness and cleanliness that anyone can imagine. The girls and Dr. DeFinnis are super to be around. I always had a fear of dentists. I look forward to have my teeth cleaned. I would recommend this office to anyone.

The entire staff is always very professional, friendly and courteous. They not only meet your dental needs but your emotional needs by putting you at ease and ensuring you are comfortable throughout the entire process. Best Dentist and practice I have ever gone too.

I had my smile makeover done at Back Mountain Dental in 2003. It was absolutely the best investment I have ever made. Worth every penny! Before my smile makeover, I was self conscious about the way my teeth looked. Since my smile makeover, I am so proud of my smile. I receive compliments on my beautiful smile all the time now. Having a smile makover has truly changed my life !

Changes and trust are two words that most people are skeptical hearing. I am certainly one of them. Our dentist died and a new one was taking over his practice. Anxiety reared its ugly head as I had a dental appointment. Everything my old dentist was this new one was not. Can you imagine he was young? The office was in transition and changes were in progress. The new dentist was so excited when he spoke about dental treatment. As the months and years progressed I faced a lot of chair hours for a variety of problems. Slowly my dentist earned my trust enough to let him fix a birth defect. I never had a bite on my right side of my mouth and this would be a major undertaking. This treatment stared in October and concluded in April 2006. Dr. DeFinnis is extremely thorough and a perfectionist in his work. He truly is a man who loves his job and it shows in every aspect. I appreciate his kindness and caring way when I did have some problems. Dr. DeFinnis went out of his way to phone me to check on how I was doing he was concerned. When I needed to call the answering service he returned my telephone call in a reasonable time. The proficiency of his staff and the continuing education for himself and staff show the dedication for self improvement. Having a desire to improve and keep up with the latest advances just goes to show the type of dentist and personnel that are at Back Mountain Dental. There arenÕt enough words to express my gratitude to Dr. DeFinnis and his staff. My dental job was completed in April and for the first time I can eat on both sides of my mouth. I actually bite down just to hear the click on both sides of my mouth. Best of all I have a beautiful smile, which I do often I love my smile make over.
Thank you Dr. DeFinnis and all of the staff.

I could not agree more with my wife's assessment of Dr. DeFinnis, even though I became his patient for different reasons. We both were patients of our dentist who died and both of us decided to try Dr. DeFinnis. At first I was a bit skeptical because of his age and the fact that initially he only had office hours for three days a week. However, he eventually took over the practice full time. His enthusiasm for his work was wonderful. He would always explain what he intended to do and why. At the end of an appointment he was actually excited with the results. My problems were a little different than my wifeÕs. Many of my teeth had the old metal fillings, which would frequently crack and need replacement. After awhile this became impossible due to the damage to the teeth. I began having crowns and root canals as needed. After sometime he informed me that doing one tooth at a time was not practical due to the amount of work and cost. He suggested a complete smile make over. I discussed this with my wife and I decided to have the work done. I could not be happier; I find myself smiling more often because I feel my new teeth are perfect. Especially when someone takes a picture of me they always comment about my smile. I never have to worry about a loose or cracked filling or a toothache. Once again let me say that I have the up most regard for Dr. DeFinnis and his entire staff and would highly recommend him to anyone.

Best Wishes,
Carl K.

I am one of those people that is terrified of the dentist. Dr. Definnis and his staff are WONDERFUL in calming your nerves and making you feel comfortable. Being called back in less than 1 minute and having the appt go smooth and quick helps very much with people that suffer from anxiety having dental work.

The staff at Back Mountain Dental was extremely friendly which made my visit enjoyable.

Doug Ratchford

My appointment was a very positive experience - and that's coming from a patient who gets very nervous going to the dentist. Thanks!

Anita Vogel

Well at my other dentist it was so painful and when I came here, I told the nurse about it and they took very good care not to make it a painful experience. I really am not worried about going anymore and appreciate their care and concern.

Anonymous

As apprenhensive as I usually am going to the Dentist, I found this experience to be very informative and the entire staff was very professional and very welcoming. The entire experience from the time I entered the office until the time my procedure was concluded and I was preparing to leave, I felt comfortable, and in very capable hands. My questions were answered in a very professional manner and my options were thoroughly explained. Great staff.

Annonymous

First visit was for a fracture in front tooth of a root canal that was never capped. The office booked me in that day and I was taken care of by a friendly and courteous staff. Dr. DeFinnis fixed my problem and gave me options to pursue for a better smile. I was very pleased!

Dolores Pall

The Dr. beat me at my own game. I had to use the local novacane, only due to the fact of the PROPER preparation for my fillings. I usually do not use it, but due to that, my past dental work has failed. Because of the Dr. convincing me to use the medicine, i was able to go through the procedure with a "pain free dental experience". Good job again, to the Doc and all of the staff! Thanks, looking forward to my next appt.,

Larry M.

Dr DeFinnis is the absolute best when it comes to doing difficult procedures. His pain management skills are amazing. He is quick, personable, and extremely proficient. I am not his father or an old college buddy. I am just an extremely satisfied patient.

Courtesy, cleanliness, professionalism and state-of-the-art dentistry are why I've chosen Back Mountain Dental. Thanks!

I need to thank you so much for my beautiful new teeth.  I didn’t realize how much I hid my teeth when I smiled, when I laughed, and when I talked - especially outside.  I have so much self-confidence now.  This was the best thing I ever did for myself.  It was worth every penny.  My only regret is that I waited so long.  Thank you again.

I had the assistant Terri she helped feel much more comfortable with my situation and really was an encouragement for me. She held my hand through Novocain when I am painfully afraid of needles, as well as dentists. One of the best medical choices I could have made was coming to back mountain. Everyone there is great and I have confidence in the choice I made with the procedure I will be going through.

Jenis W.

Everyone was extremely helpful and thoughtful. Thanks for getting us on the right track with Faith. Yours is the most professionally run office I have seen! It was worth the trip. Thanks again

The best dental office/exam I have ever visited!!!!! Thanks for your honest, up-front appraisal of my dental situation.

Dan B.

As a person with extreme anxiety when it comes to dental work, I was pleasantly surprised at how comfortable I felt during my exam/consult visit. It was interesting to learn how sedation dentistry works, and how much work can be done in just one appointment. Thanks to Dr. DeFinnis, to Janine for her patience with me during x-rays, and also to Doreen for thoroughly explaining everything that needed to be done. I'm actually excited about coming back in a few weeks to have all the work done...never thought I'd say that!

Lea H.

Thank you so very much...I will be sure to refer all my clients to your office..

Sincerely, Rosemary F.
