The Upplegers have been servicing me since I was 5 (or so) years old and I will always be a loyal client. The trust that they have gained from me, not only as a child, but as a discerning adult is not easily earned. In a day where so many businesses have shifted from service oriented to "profit," I am happy to refer anyone I hear needing dental work and looking for a quality dentist.
If you are a person (like myself) who relies on reviews to help make important decisions, let this be the last one you read. Schedule your appointment... You won't regret it!!

“The Doctor Who Listens”
Dr. Ron listened to everything I had to say as far as my needs and wants. In trying to meet those he did an excellent job. He used my old photos to make my new teeth and I love them! The staff at Uppleger is awesome and I love the cookies too.
