Fantastic experience: From the first happy hello from Shanna Banana at the reception desk to the check out experience, this is the kind of office that makes you forget you're afraid of visiting the dentist. Dr Lawson takes such great care of my 86 year-old mom and always makes her feel like the most important person in the world.

Fantastic experience: Candice was very thorough in cleaning my teeth and helped set up a follow-up appointment for a crown as well as my next cleaning visit. Dr. Lawson confirmed Candace's report on my dental health. He let me know that they may be able to make my crown match my teeth better than the original. Many thanks to both of them!

Fantastic experience: Very friendly and welcoming group and of course very professional. I'm so glad I chose them. Just had my second visit for some fillings and a crown replacement. Man! These people are great! Dr. Cagle and Lorie really seemed to care about my comfort. They are outstanding! Third visit in the books! I really appreciate the care I received from L and Dr Cadle. As wonderful as a dentist visit can be. I'm glad I found this team! I should probably just give up and get dentures or implants. However, Dr. Cagle- and Tracy keep taking care of me in wonderful fashion so I keep going back and having work done. I will soon have them in a new building. Lol. Seriously, the entire staff has been warm and welcoming to me. Best place I've ever had dental work and you won't go wrong with them.
Fantastic experience: Awesome staff no complaints got me into the office for a tooth repair in a timely manner
Fantastic experience: Had to have a crown replaced and it all went well. It was really nice they can make the crowns there and I didn’t have to return for another visit. Everyone was considerate of how I was doing and feeling during the process.
Fantastic experience: It was a great experience for a dentist for sure. The staff was very informative and friendly! My teeth felt wonderful when I was done as well. I even had my 6 year old grand daughter with me and they were so sweet with her.
Negative experience: Dropped patients with Medicaid due to “upcoming changes.” While I realize it is difficult to accept the poor, disabled and elderly, this has been devastating for the region.
Fantastic experience: I have really enjoyed my experience with this dental office so far. All I’ve had done is cleanings and X-rays! As I brush my teeth probably more than most people, due to taking a Chemo drug, and having multiple cavities for years… I now brush them a lot, to avoid cavities… at all cost! I have seen Trevor and Michael both, seem like good people… but my hygienist whom cleans my teeth, is amazing! So soft spoken, and I need that I have fear of anything dentistry!
Fantastic experience: Had an issue come up over the weekend, called this morning, got an appointment and a treatment plan!!! You guys are the BEST!!!

Fantastic experience: Fantastic!!!! OUtstanding. The front office workers were wonderful. My wait was short. I had several procedures done. There was no pain. Dr. Cagle and his assistant were nice, professional, sympathetic and above all skilled! Best dentist and dental practice i have ever went to!!!!! One draw back they did not know who the lead singer of Journey was (the true lead singer Steven Perry) LOL.
Fantastic experience: Fast, friendly, and excellent service with detailed description of procedure and other options.
Fantastic experience: I had my teeth cleaned here and they did a really good job at a reasonable price. Then I had a cap on my tooth replaced. They were so friendly and did a fantastic job.
Fantastic experience: I want the best doctors on my team. That's why I am your patient. Dr. Lawson and Dr. Cagle are knowledgeable and personable. Dr. Lawson has worked so much on this long road of having my #19 broken by anesthesia intubation. I also appreciated Dr. Cagle's implant work on replacing #19. I can't say enough about the support team of the ladies in the office. Punky has been so complete in taking care of the insurance. Shanna at reception is always so polite and appreciated. Kelly is my go to hygienist. I can't imagine anyone else being so caring and attentive to catching anything that might need to be addressed. I also felt completely comfortable and cared for with the sweet young lady who assists Dr. Lawson. All in all, I appreciate everyone on YOUR team for being on mine! Update: I am starting the invisalign journey and Stephanie was great today! She is really caring and so knowledgeable. I love this place and all there who take care of me with their many talents! Thank you.

Fantastic experience: I had the best and most thorough cleaning experience with Lisa RDH I have ever had. She is incredible!!!! Dr. Lawson is a very nice man who took care of a broken tooth for me a couple of months ago on very short notice when my PREVIOUS dentist was going to put me off for 2 months. Needless to say, I have a new dentist and a new hygienist! The office is extremely nice and so are all the people I have met. I highly recommend the services provided there!
Fantastic experience: The staff are wonderful. Patient, kind and caring. Will do whatever it takes to make you sure you are pleased with the end result of any dental work. I highly recommend this office.
Fantastic experience: I appreciate the courteous and professional treatment. Better than 5 years ago.
Fantastic experience: Hardly any wait time. Office is roomy and comfortable and all staff were very friendly and professional. I think my dentist is going to be retiring in the not-too-distant future and if this office is taking new patients, I’d definitely like to come back as a regular patient.
Fantastic experience: So knowledgeable and detail oriented. Explained every step of the process and immediately put me at ease. Procedure was pain free, the achiness was not unbearable after the procedure. Mountain Empire Dental staff are the most professional, friendly I have ever encountered in this type of fast pace setting. They have become like family.
Fantastic experience: My appointment was fast and wait time very short. Staff is always friendly and willing to help any way they can. Love this office and the professionalism the show every time. Check in is quick and easy by doing update online of anything that is new and needs to be added to chart.
Fantastic experience: It was a great experience! Stephanie explained step by step what was needed to get done! Always very pleasant and did not get annoyed with any questions I had!! I would definitely recommend Mountain Empire Dental!!!!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Lawler did such a great job doing my tooth, and Jenny was terrific. Just want to add that although she was not working on me today, Chris is such an asset. She actually came in beforehand to make sure I was doing well and then checked after to see how things had gone. This is very rare! Valerie Quinlan
