“I needed a sinus lift and was nervous about that—it turns out I needn’t be. Dr. Strahler did a fantastic job. I am grateful I found them and would not consider going anywhere else. As soon as you enter the office, you are warmly welcomed and feel at ease. My family receives their dental care there as well and we are all very happy with the treatment.”

“I had extensive dental work done by Dr. Strahler after a botched experience in Mexico. Dr. Strahler is a perfectionist in the best sense. He corrected everything—one year later, my teeth look great and feel great. Highly, highly recommend!”

[His] dental services and treatments always come with a thorough explanation of the procedure he is recommending. I highly recommend Dr. Penshorn and his staff for all dental care.”

"I wanted to get a smile transformation and began the search for a dentist to have crowns or veneers put on my upper teeth.  Dr. Penshorn was informative, friendly and very easy to talk to.  He explained everything in a way that was easily understood.  I am thrilled with my smile and feel 100% better about myself because of Dr. Penshorn's incredible work and attention to the smallest detail."
