Temple Dental Trails: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Tori and Dr Newton were wonderful. Explained everything going on. I was very impressed with their bedside manner, so to speak.
Fantastic experience: Another good checkup and cleaning. Everyone is so nice, pleasant and concerned, especially since I am very wary of dental work

YAY! This is great news, Mr. & Mrs. Liggett! Thank you for the awesome feedback and sweet review about Dr. Vu.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Newton and her assistant Ashley were so kind, understanding and patient. I have scleroderma and my lips don’t stretch well, so I require the patient gentleness they provided me with. Dr. Newton does an excellent job of educating me on what will be happening. She is not only beautiful but her kindness and courtesy make her more beautiful. I love coming here. Everyone is great to include the receptionists.
Thank you so much, Rebbecca! We’re thrilled to hear that Dr. Newton, Ashley, and the entire team made you feel comfortable and well cared for. Your kind words mean the world to us, and we’re honored to be part of your dental care journey. We look forward to seeing you again!

Fantastic experience: Good morning, I walked into the office and was met by the pleasant smile of your office receptionist. You checked me in and told me what I was being seen for which was a crown replacement. I asked if she could find the cost and she did. I was then welcomed to the back by the dental assistant and she offered me a warm blanket and a neck rest. She was warm and pleasant and made feel at home, "comfortable" I shared a problem I was experiencing she was sure to relay my concern to the doctor. The doctor investigated the concern and came up with an excellent solution. Finally, the procedure for my dental work was as painless as can be expected. I always have a positive experience at Temple Dental Trails and that is why I drive up from Houston to get all my dental work done there. Your office is both professional and friendly.
You're so sweet, Mrs. Johnson! Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us and for the continued loyalty to our practice. We love having you in for visits and thankful for your kind words.
We look forward to seeing you at our next visit together.

Negative experience: I went here because of all of the good ratings, their billing is horrible. They canceled 2 of my appointments and then I had to cancel the third appointment and they sent me a 1700 bill for missing that appointment. I am having to dispute this with the credit company now. Miss an appointment and they will charge you because that is exactly what they did to me. I like the dental staff and have gone and had some teeth worked on, I told my parents to check them out. My parents went there and used their insurance, Temple Trails did not submit it to the insurance company till a YEAR later. They just got a denial of payment due to untimely filing. My family will not use them again. They have created a bunch of extra work for us.
Thank you for your feedback. We understand billing concerns can be frustrating, and we’d be happy to speak with you directly to help clarify everything. We do not charge for missed appointments, and we always strive to file insurance claims in a timely manner. Please feel free to contact our office, we’re here to help.
Positive experience: I absolutely love the dentist and hygienists here, they’re the best out of all of my years of going to a dentist. I would give a five star rating if the billing was better. I’m always told that I owe way more than I actually do and that I will be refunded if it’s less. Every time I only owe about 50% of what they tell me I owe when I call and tell them that I’ve received my EOB and I need a refund. I’m always told that they haven’t received the check yet from the insurance and have to make multiple calls to keep checking to see when they’re going to issue the refund.So today I called the insurance after speaking to someone at Temple Dental trails and being told again that they had not received anything from my insurance. According to my insurance they sent an electronic Funds Transfer on May 21 and it was showing that it was received on their end. This billing practice was not a concern for me when I was still working and had discretionary funds. But now that I’m retired and do not have discretionary funds it is an issue. My insurance also stated that they were not contacted for an estimate prior to Services, but according to the dentist office, they always do that. Billing practices could be greatly improved.
Thank you for your kind words about our dental team, it means a lot to us. Regarding billing, we always do our best to provide accurate estimates based on the information available from insurance at the time. Since exact amounts aren’t confirmed until payment is received, occasional adjustments are necessary. We’re always happy to issue a refund as soon as the claim is finalized.
If you’d like to discuss your account further, please don’t hesitate to give us a call.
Fantastic experience: This is the only place my boys will go to. We have tried other dentist, even pediatric dentist. The staff truly takes the time to make the boys comfortable and they have patience with them.
Thank you, Priscilla! It means so much to us that your boys feel comfortable and cared for here. We're honored to be your family’s trusted dental home and truly appreciate your kind words about our team’s patience and dedication!
Fantastic experience: Temple Dental Trails is the best dentist I have come across in the area. I have been coming here for over 5 years. The staff is super friendly and my hygienist is very professional and does a thorough job with cleaning.
Thank you so much, Rebecca! We're honored to have earned your trust over the past 5 years. Your kind words about our team and your hygienist truly mean a lot to us. We look forward to continuing to provide you with excellent care!
Fantastic experience: These people are so kind and warm that I felt at ease and so well taken care of!
Thank you, Danielle! We're so glad our team made you feel at ease and well cared for. Creating a warm, welcoming environment is what we strive for every day. We look forward to seeing you again!

Thank you, Cheryl! We're so glad to hear that you felt comfortable and well cared for during your visit. We truly appreciate your kind words and look forward to seeing you again!
Fantastic experience: The Temple dental trails clinic was super clean and had the most professional and accommodating employees. From the front desk staff, to the hygienist and the doctor, they were all extremely nice and explained everything very clearly. They had a reasonably priced treatment plan that worked with my insurance. The hygienist Sutton was the absolute best! She was the sweetest and explained everything and answered any questions I had. I would 100% recommend to anyone!!!
Thank you so much, Kaylie, for your thoughtful review! We're thrilled to hear that you had such a positive experience with our team, especially Sutton. We’re glad everything was clearly explained and that our treatment plan worked well with your insurance. We truly appreciate your recommendation and look forward to seeing you again!
Positive experience: I have only had one experience so far, and I would definitely recommend. Dental hygienist was thorough, yet gentle. Dentist was friendly and knowledgeable, and the facility was very clean and modern. I did knock one star off because I have been going back and forth with insurance, so I checked with staff beforehand whether or not I would be paying out of pocket, and they told me no. Then after they had taken x-rays and finished my appointment, they told me that I did have to pay some out of pocket. Technically the issue is with the insurance company, but 4/5 because the communication could have been better about the charge beforehand.
Thank you for your thoughtful review, Brooke! We're so glad to hear that you had a great experience with our team and appreciated the care from your hygienist and doctor. We’re truly sorry for the confusion regarding your insurance coverage—while we do our best to provide accurate estimates, there can sometimes be unexpected changes from the insurance provider’s end. We value your feedback and will use it to improve communication moving forward. We appreciate you recommending us and look forward to seeing you again!
Fantastic experience: Absolutely phenomenal!! My hygienist was extremely attentive and helpful. Answered all of my questions. Both the doctor and the dental assistant treating my cavity were excellent and explained the whole process. Will be coming back!
Thank you so much, Hailey! We're thrilled to hear that you had a phenomenal experience with our team. It's wonderful to know your hygienist, doctor, and assistant made you feel informed and well cared for. We truly appreciate your kind words and look forward to seeing you at your next visit!

Thank you, Victoria! We're so happy to hear your first visit was a great one. It means a lot to us that you felt comfortable and well cared for—we look forward to seeing you again!
Fantastic experience: This place is very welcoming and quick! I came in for a cleaning and I was in and out in 30 minutes. They are not pushy like some dental offices I’ve been to. They even give you a pillow and blanket while you watch Netflix and get your teeth cleaned. Would 100% recommend Temple Dental Trails! p.s. I love the chapstick that comes in the little goodie bags!
Thank you, Samantha! We're so glad you felt welcomed and comfortable during your visit. We love making your experience cozy and relaxing—and we’re thrilled you enjoyed the chapstick too! Looking forward to seeing you again soon at Temple Dental Trails.
Fantastic experience: I had a wonderful experience at Temple Dental Trails. The staff was very warm and inviting. The office is very modern and efficient. My mom was intrigued with how I felt. She has a deep fear of dentists but she is going to give them a try! It was nice to visit, like coming home. I truly enjoyed hearing about the staff family growing. I feel like an Auntie.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us, Ms. Daniel. We loved getting to meet you and look forward to our next visit together. We cannot wait to meet your Mom as well. Thank you for taking the time to leave us such a nice review.

Ginger, we’re so happy to hear you had a fantastic first visit! It means a lot that you felt comfortable and well taken care of by our team. We’re honored to be your new dental home and look forward to seeing you again. Thank you for your kind words!

Thank you, David! We're so glad you had a pleasant first visit. We appreciate your kind words and look forward to seeing you again!
Fantastic experience: I really appreciate Dr. Rich seeing me so quickly and totally addressing my needs. He is very personable, knowledgeable, and his calmness helps calm any 'dentist jitters' I get! I highly recommend Temple Dental Trails!
Thank you for your kind words, Tricia! We're thrilled to hear that Dr. Rich was able to address your needs promptly and help you feel at ease. Your recommendation means a lot to us! We look forward to seeing you again at Temple Dental Trails.
Fantastic experience: This has been the best dental office I have ever been to! Imaging and technology is updated with the newest and best ways to approach dental care. With imaging came extremely knowledgeable dental hygienists and providers who explain WHY things are happening. I came to this office needing a second opinion on some dental work. Not only was my condition explained to me in the best manner, we made a shared decision to approach my care in a more conservative manner saving me money and reducing my risk factors for developing further complications. Today I feel great and I’m glad I came! Your comfort is their priority so there are several practices they do that not all dental offices care to implement. For example mouth rest while you get work done, blankets, and TVs. All these things make a huge difference in your care.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review, Natalia! We're thrilled to hear that you had such a positive experience with us. It’s great to know that our approach and comfort measures made a difference in your care. Your satisfaction is our top priority, and we look forward to seeing you again!

Thank you for your kind words, Brenda! We're glad to hear that Sutton and Dr. Newton made your experience comfortable and informative. We strive to provide a welcoming environment for all our patients. Looking forward to seeing you again!

Negative experience: Had dental work in this practice. Was given a budget. After everything is done and complete, they sent me an additional bill >800. They ignored my attempts to communicate about this issue, even after sending a certified letter. Very disappointed. Will have to find another practice
Thank you for sharing your concerns with us. We understand how unexpected balances can be frustrating, and we apologize for any confusion surrounding your account.
Our practice provides treatment cost estimates based on information received from insurance providers. Occasionally, insurance companies process claims differently than anticipated, which can result in additional balances. This can happen, for example, when coverage limits are reached or if certain procedures are not covered as estimated.
We’ve reviewed our records and believe we addressed your questions during prior communications. However, if you have further concerns or need additional clarification, we encourage you to contact us. We’re here to assist you in any way we can.

Fantastic experience: I have always had issues with my dental care and i absolutely hated going to a dentist. I got they caused more damage just to get me to come back.

We look forward to continuing to provide you with excellent care.
Fantastic experience: First visit here and really appreciate the professional staff and transparency! I was interested in teeth whitening after my cleaning and they talked me into some over the counter options before taking the plunge on more expensive in office treatments. The monthly plan is a big bonus too!
Thank you for sharing your experience with us! We're also happy to hear you find value in our monthly plan! We look forward to seeing you at your next visit.
Negative experience: Waited a while before they could get me in as a new patient only to get a call the day before explaining they REQUIRE new patients to get a 3d scan, which my insurance doesn’t cover so it was going to cost an extra $40. Never have had a place require it, and to find out the day before felt like I was trying to get trapped into keeping my appointment. Nope. See ya later.
Thank you for your feedback. We apologize for any confusion regarding our policies. We use intraoral photos as part of our 2D imaging process to educate patients on their oral health and ensure they understand their treatment needs. Last month alone, we welcomed over 140 new patients and are currently booked out 1.5 months in advance. We know our approach may not suit everyone, and that's okay. If you have any further questions or would like to discuss your experience, feel free to reach out to us directly.
Fantastic experience: Kayla is the go to person here!!!! She is very good at what she does, and a very caring young lady……. She is definitely a great asset to the company she works for.
Thank you for your wonderful review and for recognizing Kayla! We’re thrilled to hear how much you appreciate her care and expertise. She truly is an asset to our team, and we’re so glad she made your experience a positive one. We look forward to seeing you again soon!
Fantastic experience: There's a lot of 5-star reviews and all of them are definitely legit and real; this is a great dental office. I am the CEO of a multinational technology company based in Austin, Texas but my family & I live in Temple. I am a wuss. Certifiably. Yet Dr. Rich and team get away with re-arranging my teeth somehow pain-free. I think it's black magic, but it works, whatever it is, so I don't question it. So, if you are like me, a genuine charlatan when it comes to even a paper cut, this is the right place to go for your dentistry. Caring, compassionate and (for me) painless. Usually, the downside of small towns are the limits of dental and medical facilities. Dr. Rich & team changed that landscape in Tanglefoot (Temple's original name). I have had everything from a post-op visit from maxiofacial surgery to veneers to extractions to crowns. I'm pretty sure I've had everything on the menu of dental services without any pain. If Dr. Rich renamed it to "Temple Dental Buffet," I have already had everything with second helpings of a few items and he had did it all without making me cry my face off. That's impressive, and it's kept this 50-year old guy's dignity.
Thank you for such a fantastic and entertaining review! We’re thrilled to hear that your experience with us has been nothing short of extraordinary. Your kind words, humor, and glowing feedback mean a lot to us.We’re honored to be your go-to dental office, and we’re grateful for the trust you have placed in us. Looking forward to keeping that “Temple Dental Buffet” pain-free for many more visits to come!
Fantastic experience: Great place; comfortable, pleasant atmosphere. Love the technology used here. The front desk, dental hygienists and dentists work with you. They are very knowledgeable, informative, respectful, and work well together as a team. If you have any anxiety about going to the dentist, the staff here is calming and encouraging!
Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We’re so glad to hear that you enjoyed your visit. We take pride in creating a calming and encouraging environment, especially for those who feel anxious about dental appointments. We look forward to continuing to provide you with excellent care!
Fantastic experience: Just updating my review - I left one 9 years ago (also a positive experience then!) when I visited the practice once for a second opinion, but have since returned as a patient! Dr. Newton is the best dentist I have ever had hands down. She is kind, caring, and goes above and beyond. I have a suspected facial nerve issue, and she has been so kind and caring throughout this and personally called me today to check on me and give me some recommendations. When I have seen her in office, she has been thorough and has the best bedside manner. I could not recommend their office highly enough!
Hi Amy! Thanks for the great review of our dental office. We're glad you had a great experience!
Negative experience: Last 2 dental procedures failed and had to be redone by another dentist. When I called to speak with them about the issue, I was told there was no guarantee of the work done. Since work has been done so soon, insurance didn't cover any of it, resulting in a large bill. They also randomly changed the times of my son's orthodontist appointment and failed to call and let us know. When we arrived for the originally scheduled 4:30 appointment (had a confirmation text as proof), we were told the orthodontist had already left and we would have to reschedule. Very poor communication. Happy to have switched from them
Thank you so much, Kayla! We loved our visit together.
Fantastic experience: I hadn't seen a dentist in probably 4 years (I told them it'd been two to save face but I know they could tell) because of crippling dentist anxiety, fully knowing every dentist I've seen in the last decade (all two of them) want to take my broken teeth from me and fix my smile. This visit was exactly what was expected, but the staff were so welcoming and understanding of my anxieties, they were able to talk me into parting with a broken tooth I've had for ten years right there on the spot. I now sit here with a hole in my mouth and an equal, if not larger hole in my heart missing my dear tooth, but I know deep down it was the right decision and they helped me get there today. Of course as we parted ways they wanted to put me back on the books for a cleaning in 6 months, which I eloquently dodged, but you know what, I'll probably make that appointment and not wait years again so long as this is the group I'm seeing. 5/5 Review. Would let them take a broken tooth of mine again.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us! We truly understand how difficult it can be to face dental anxiety, and we’re so glad our team could help make your visit a little easier. It sounds like parting with that tooth was a tough decision, but we’re honored to have helped you through it.
We appreciate your trust in us, and we’ll be here whenever you’re ready for your next appointment – no pressure, just support. We’re looking forward to seeing you again, whenever you feel ready. We’ll take great care of you, tooth by tooth!
Fantastic experience: All of the dentists and staff here are excellent. Extremely kind and helpful. I would definitely recommend this practice to anyone looking for a place to have their dental work done.
Thank you for your fantastic review! Your high recommendation means the world to us, and we’re grateful to have you as part of our dental family. We look forward to continuing to take great care of you!
Positive experience: Friendly staff. Place looks good. Staff was pretty thorough in explaining things except charge for pics of teeth. Didn’t care for out of pocket charge for pics of my teeth or consult fee to see oral surgeon.
Thank you, Chas!

Fantastic experience: I recently went to Temple Dental Trails , and it was the best dental experience that I have EVER had. I have anxiety when it comes to dental treatment due to past experiences , but with Jenny and Dr. Newton my anxiousness went away. They were so calm and explained everything to me before starting the process and made sure that I didnt have any questions and that I was comfortable the entire time. I would truly reccomend this office to anyone .

Negative experience: Good luck trying to get in to be seen here, made an appt over two months ago and am told less than a week before the appt they have to reschedule, and june is the earliest availability??? Great way to earn new patients!
Hi Martin, thank you for providing us with your feedback, and we sincerely apologize for your experience. Unfortunately, we were switching appointment platforms and your appointment was scheduled at a day/time when we were already booked. We are working on growing our team to expand our capacity but, unfortunately, it'll take some time to do things right. If you'd like to see if we have any new openings, we may be able to get you in sooner. Feel free to reach out to Megan and she'll take care of you. Thank you again for your feedback and we apologize for the inconvenience.
Fantastic experience: Editing to add: I have recently been in for dental work. Dr. Newton and Jenny were absolutely awesome and deserve all the recognition. Thank you all for continuing to have amazing standards! Due to bad experiences (with other dentists)over the recent years, I've put off going in anywhere. I finally worked up the courage to make an appointment with Temple Trails based off of their reviews. The reviews are spot on! I've only had a cleaning done so far but I can't express how amazing y'all are. Not an ounce of judgment. Every single person is so friendly and there's wonderful communication. They made me feel so comfortable. It's so obvious you guys genuinely care about your patients. Thank you so much!

Fantastic experience: I have been coming here for a couple 3 year's and I have had quite a bit of work done. Let me just say this, if you have to go to the dentist this is the place to go! They have always made me feel comfortable and confident that I am in the right place. Kind and always concerned about my comfort, you can have a neck pillow and a blanket if you want it, Come in and give them a try, you won’t be sorry!
Thank you, Tanya! We really appreciate you taking the time to leave us a five-star review of your visit.
Fantastic experience: Everything was seamless and punctual. Lindsey spoke to me like a person not just a patient as she took my x rays and cleaned my teeth. Kaitlyn and I talked about work as she got me set up and comfortable for my filling. Lastly, Dr. Newton talked me through everything she was doing before doing it and made sure I was satisfied with the work being done. I’m glad I found my new home for all my dental work.

Fantastic experience: I am terrified of the dentist. But I have a broken tooth I needed to get looked at before it really started hurting. My hygienist was Stephanie, and she was amazing. She listened to my concerns, was very compassionate and explained everything in detail to ease my mind. Dr.Kern was so sweet, explained everything completely, answered my questions & just made me feel so comfortable. I’ve never been to a dentist office like this before. So if you are looking for an amazing dentist who actually cares…Temple Dental Trails is where you need to go!

Fantastic experience: Temple Dental Trails is by far the best dental office i have ever been to. From the ladies at the front counter, dental assistants, hygienist and the dentist they all very friendly and provide the greatest service. I have had extensive dental work over the years and finding a good dental office has always been a challenge. When I retired and moved back to Temple in 2009 I went thru 7 different dental offices before i found Temple Dental Trails a few years ago A special thanks to Dr. Vu who is an amazing oral surgeon. He and his assistant Haley provide the most amazing patient care a person could ever ask for. I can't say enough good things about Temple Dental Trails and those who work there.
Thank you for making our day, Mr. Rose! We loved reading your review about our practice and team and are thankful for the feedback. We are genuinely grateful to patients like you who make our job worthwhile.
