Shout out to Monika, Linda, and Kristy for being so positive and answering questions I had. Thank you to Jennifer who took the headache and hassle out of transferring my records and dealing with all of the insurance stuff. My experience was grand and everyone should give them a try. Your teeth will have a clean and healthy home at Pure Dental Arts.” – Mickey Norton, patient at Everett office
