Dr Tyler is one of a kind! EXTREMELY experienced and thinks outside the box continually-- which is my #1 requirement! He is patient, gentle, compassionate, funny (he made me belly laugh for 30 seconds in the middle of the crown install), so knowledgeable and has a tremendous concern for the well-being of his patients!. I read a review which said a family drives from AL to have him do dental work- I would too!

Dr. Ames is an excellent dentist. He always goes the extra mile in order to provide me with the best dental care. I'm a cancer patient at Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center and have very specific issues with my dental health due to the cancer treatments that I have received over the last 5 years. Dr. Ames is up to the challenge.
