"Took my 4 week old son to get looked at for lip and tongue ties, and the dentist was so knowledgeable about the problems she was seeing in him. All of the staff was so accommodating to us and our needs. They had a separate room to have him in that was perfect for feeding him afterwards. Very clean and nice place. Highly recommend for any tongue or lip releases."

Excellent staff and service. Would highly recommend for any of your dental needs
Omg Exceptional Dentistry is just that “EXCEPTIONAL “.The entire appointment was professional and caring… I went to their bathroom and it smelled inviting. The fragrance was calming and home-like. Not a $250,000 town home type smell! This smell was definitely upper echelon like a $750,000 gated community smell! The hygienist was professional and communicated each procedure that was done. My dentist entered the room and from the beginning she was engaging, patient, smart and honest. My teeth was prepped by another dentist several months ago. This dentist removed my from tooth and shave down a tooth to left and right of the missing toothe for a bridge. My insurance paid the entire procedure except for $500. Her receptionist told me my bridge had arrived and to come right away. Well at that time I did not have the $500 but I was certain she would set up a payment plan or just took me at my word that I was going to pay the balance next payday. Well to make long story short she refused to put the bridge in. And told me to my face that the bridge did not come in! She held my bridge for ransom and said when I get the $500 I can have the bridge. At that point, I told her to return all the money Delta Dental gave her for my procedure because I will never do business with her again nor will my sister who referred me. Also, word of mouth goes a long way. My appearance means everything to me so I was devastated to have to look into my wife’s eyes each time she had to look at me with no tooth in the front and two shaved teeth! Well that negative turned into a positive yesterday because Exceptional Dentistry is now my new dental home…
We had an amazing experience with Dr. Kristen Berning!! Our 2 month old daughter had a lip tie, tongue tie and cheek (buccal) tie. She was struggling with nursing and eating from a bottle too. She was not gaining weight like she should have been. Our baby girl was gone from us for the laser procedure for less than 5 minutes! She wasn’t even really fussy afterwards! We HIGHLY recommend Dr. Kristen for correcting oral ties!!
Fixed my TMJ ending years of pain. Chose Exceptional Dentistry for the whole family.
Got me in early. Very friendly.
Highly skilled, exceptional personalities, overall top notch experience
The staff and dentist really listen to your concerns and explain everything well. They ensure you are comfortable with what they did before you leave and that you understand all care instructions explicitly. I even received a call from the dentist the day after the procedure to ensure all was going well.
They were very nice and took good care of me while I was there. Very professional!
Very little waiting - they are great about getting you in and out quickly! Friendly staff, nice office, easy location. They’ve always done a good job for me and my husband. I’ve recommended them to friends and family and all have been happy with Exceptional Dentistry.

Your staff were exceptionally attentive and professional. I felt like they cared about me as a person, not just a patient. I have never been as happy with a visit to the dentist as I was in your office.
Always a top notch place! I feel so well cared for at your office. I always feel I’m getting the best possible care! Thank you!
TOP NOTCH. FIVE STAR. NOTHING EVEN COMES CLOSE TO THIS STAFF AND THIS OFFICE.
Everyone there is absolutely wonderful, very friendly, and very professional. That is why I travel all the way across the state to have my dental work done here.
While it may seem odd to some, I actually enjoy my dental checkups. Everyone always greet me with a smile and a friendly hello by name. Making the switch to Exceptional Dentistry 5 years ago was the best decision I made for our dental health. We've learned a lot and have put it to use. Dr. Berning is a true artist and I have a smile to prove it! Thank you all.
I just wanted to sincerely thank you all again for such an amazing, positive, first-time experience in your ‘dentistry home’! I’m not even going to call it an ‘office’ because it’s nothing like an office at all! From the second I stepped in, and my senses immediately caught the beautiful aroma in the entryway, I knew I was going to get royal treatment! I was nervous as all heck, but red carpet here we come! I was so very nervous as a first-time patient, not knowing what to expect (given my past history and worried I’d be frowned upon). I walked out of your ‘home’ totally floored and in shock that you all have such a genuinely compassionate personality about you (and funny too!). You were all so darn sweet that I was almost in tears! You really do live up to your ‘Exceptional Dentistry’ motto, as I felt very special today in your care. Dr. Murray, you have chosen your team well, and I am already amazed with you in one visit. When I was there I felt as if I was your only patient that day (good thing I wasn’t cuz you wouldn’t make any money that way! LOL) But you and your awesome team catered to me as if I was, and this is how it should be no matter where you go – but it’s not…so thank you. I know I have a little bit of a road ahead of me to achieve the beautiful smile I desire – but I trust you – I knew that after today’s visit that I made the right choice to come see you. Thanks again.
I have none. As the staff is now aware, I’m scared to death of dentists! Everyone made me feel secure and assured me that all would/will be okay. I’m still scared, but do know that everyone actually cares about me and my health and will do the best they can to make me comfortable in whatever procedures need to be done to give me back a healthy mouth and a healthy smile! Thank you all so much!
Best dental experience I have ever had! My anxiety isn’t gone, but it is diminished to the point I’ll be able to finally give my teeth the dental care they deserve on a regular basis. I went from being tortured at the dentist to being cared about. I didn’t believe it was possible. ‘Exceptional’ describes Dr. Murray and his staff perfectly!
You definitely live up to the name of your business and the services provided! My thanks to you fo re-arranging you patient roster to work me in on such short notice. Everyone on staff has been professional, courteous, and caring. I am very glad I chose this practice for my dental needs (and my husband Randy). I will gladly recommend Exceptional Dentistry to colleagues, friends, and acquaintances. I look forward to a good professional/client relationship with your office. Thanks again for everything
From the minute I walked into your office I felt at ease and treated with warm, caring respect. My whitening procedure went smoothly. I was extremely pleased after having old, yellow, smoke-stained teeth looking almost like new again. Thanks for giving me my smile back again.
