What They're Saying About Us

I saw Dr. Lankford for my first-ever cleaning a couple of years ago. I’ve had fillings, a crown, my wisdom teeth removed, and now I’ve got braces. Dr. Lankford has been there every step of the way. He’s awesome! The staff are all extremely friendly and welcoming.

Definitely one of the best dental experiences I’ve ever had. Dr. Dean pushed my claim through quickly, x-rays done fast, explained things clearly, and repaired a tooth a previous dentist did a horrible job on. Staff is super friendly and accommodating. My family won’t be going anywhere else again!

I took my three children to Dr. Harpavat and my children loved it! My littlest who is two held his mouth wide open as Dr. H. examined his teeth. Dr. Harpavat is very thorough and gentle with the children and the staff around was amazing and made us feel right at home!

My kids loved the staff and thought Dr. Lankford was the best dentist ever (their words). My kids are 14 and 13. His office staff is friendly and welcoming, and I am so happy he is located so close to our new home in Memorial.
