Sometimes it is hard to find a dentist that you can feel trustworthy with. As a child having a bad experience with a dentist has me a little anxious each time I have to visit a dentist for a check-up or a filling. I came in about a week ago to have a tooth fixed and saw Dr. Hatch. Of course already being nervous that I have to be at a dentist office to get a tooth fixed of course I was reserved. Dr. Hatch and his team were very thorough and explained every detail to me before it was done. Most of us don't like having a needle shoved in our mouth but I must say this was the best experience I have ever had. Sometimes they say no pain no gain but I definitely had no pain and lots to gain. Dr. Hatch was able to successfully repair a tooth that could have possibly needed pulled. By far the best dentist I have seen in 35 years. Hats off to Dr. Hatch, Dr. Nelson, Dr. Gunnell, and the entire team at Derby dental care for making this one of my best experiences ever.July 11 Matthew G. via Google,

First time patient. Great experience.
KATARZYNA K.I'm very pleased with my first visit to Derby Dental. Welcoming stuff as soon as you walk in, no waiting time! Tammy was excellent with cleaning and explaining every detail that was done to me or what would be performed on future visits. I'm somehow even excited to go back for my netx visit. :)

Top Notch Care
BRADY B.We recently moved to Derby and a family member referred us to DDC. I'm so glad they did! The staff at DDC is second to none. They were so great with all 6 of my kids! I love the convenience of being able to go to the same place for cleanings, wisdom teeth removal, orthodontia, and to see a tongue tie specialist.
