“Excellent and thorough physician and staff. Great communication and follow-up.”
I brought my son in as an emergency from another provider. The staff as well as Dr. Banker were all very kind. They explained everything very clearly and never once did we feel rushed since we came in at the end of the day. The communication skills of the staff and physician were excellent.

“Exceptional and Friendly experience!!!!”
Dr. Baker and his staff were a beyond professional and friendly. After seeing three dentists for my daughter, they made it worth the wait in finding them. My daughter was comfortable and so were we. He was so gentle and made us all happy!

“Great care, good patient interaction and very professional”
Dr. Banker is very personable and you can tell that he has a genuine concern about his patients. I was always given individualized attention. His staff and especially his assistants were always very friendly. I have had a lot of dental work and this implant process was by far the easiest.

“Waaay easier than expected”
My 10 year old son had to have a baby tooth removed and was very anxious about having this done. Dr Banker and his staff was great with my child and was able to alleviate his fears. I would highly recommend anyone with young children to come to ArkLaTex Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery.
