Watson Family Dental: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Always friendly and professional! Helpful in all situations.
Fantastic experience: Been going here since I was a kid and I have no complaints
Fantastic experience: I have been going here for years and have never had a bad experience or had to wait long. The team does a very good job cleaning my teeth each time and Dr. Christy is very good at what he does.
Fantastic experience: Been going to Dr. Allen for 15 years or so. Safe, gentle dentist.
Fantastic experience: Friendly professional staff. Was taken back right on time. Had a crown come off and was very pleased that they got me in right away. Best place in St. Louis area for your dental needs. Dr. Christy and Dr. Allen are both great dentists. Caring, compassionate, and professional.
Thank You
Fantastic experience: I've been going here since I was a kid, I'm 26 now and I have no complaints the staff and Dr Christie are all great!
Fantastic experience: Great service, as always! I've been seeing Dr. Stephen Christy at Watson Family Dental for many years. This visit required a tooth extraction. It was virtually painless and the recovery time was less than a day. I know not all extractions are that easy, but this one went perfectly. I returned to Watson Family Dental later this year, and had a bridge installed yesterday. Again, Dr. Christy made everything easy. Painless preparation at the first appointment, and yesterday he put the bridge in place. It fits perfectly, and feels and looks just like my teeth. Just perfect!
Thank You
Fantastic experience: Dr Allen explained everything very thoroughly to me. He was very helpful and courteous. The rest of the staff was awesome He is the best dentist I have ever seen in my 75 years. He is kind, thorough and courteous
Fantastic experience: Julie and Dr. Christy are amazing!
Fantastic experience: Excellent experience at Watson Family Dental - Julie is the best hygienist. Very thorough. I have been going to her for many years. And I really like Dr. Christy. He put a crown in several years ago. I had never had such work done before, and I was very nervous. He did an excellent job in allaying my fears and it was painless. And as of today’s appointment, the crown is doing well.
Thank you!
Fantastic experience: I visited WFD for the first time today. I had lagged a bit on routine cleanings - add that with dental anxiety and I probably wasn’t the easiest patient they had today. My hygienist, Sara(h), was extremely patient, listened thoroughly to my concerns and provided helpful strategies to mitigate any discomfort. I’m so pleased with how the visit went. For someone who detests the dental X-ray process, Sarah made this as easy as it can be and she handled my dental anxieties with grace. Their equipment also seems much more modern than my last dental office which is an added bonus.
Fantastic experience: The staff is friendly, informative and efficient. My teeth have never been so clean. Today I received a crown and the detail and precise matching done by Dr. Christy was absolutely appreciated! Update...I have been working with insurance to be able to afford an implant. Watson Family Dental helped me through the entire process and the staff was amazing. I must reiterate how clean my teeth are!! I love this place!!
Fantastic experience: Was experiencing discomfort with a molar and was given an appointment within 24 hours. Dr. Christy took the time to explain, in detail, what had happened and that no oral surgery was required. Staff is excellent, courteous and will answer all pertinent questions. Wonderful dental office.
Fantastic experience: Everything was excellent, as always. The entire staff is great and Dr. Allen is the best!
Fantastic experience: I thoroughly enjoyed my visit today. The staff was very complementary and did their best to. Reassure me and to give me a very pleasant experience. They were very sincere in their explanation and reassured me. That I was doing a very good job taking care of my teeth and gums. I always feel that the staff in my dentist care about me and want only the best for me. I was also assisted by the staff in being a cited guide for me as a blind person. I feel that I am incredibly special to have such a caring staff when I come in for my annual visit as well as For my twice yearly hygiene appointments.
Fantastic experience: Went smooth and they didn't try to sell me on any work that I didn't need

Fantastic experience: Due to numerous unpleasant experiences at other offices, I have great anxiety and trepidation when it comes to going to the dentist, even for things like a routine cleaning.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Allen and his team are fantastic. They did a great job catching me up on nearly two decades of deferent dental work, and did it without a hint of judgment. Every cleaning, cavity, and crown has been as good an experience as dental work can be.
Fantastic experience: For someone that struggles with needles and sinister gag reflexes, Dr. Christy and his team have made going to the dentist a surprisingly easy experience. They show immense care and patience, and everyone is wonderfully friendly and kind! I no longer stay up nights worrying about scary looking instruments. I highly recommend!!!

I asked him to numb me and he numbed the whole side of my mouth, even that side of my tongue was numb. I just sat back and all of my cats while he took care of me. I Highly recommended either Dr. Christie or Dr. Allen to anybody looking for a wonderful, gentle, Empathetic dentist Who will take care of you fast and on short notice.
Fantastic experience: Today I completed an appointment with Watson Family Dental Hygienist Susan. Susan was thorough, professional and her process resulted in my teeth feeling cleaner than they have in months In addition, she shared valuable insight as to how I could keep them plaque free longer.

Fantastic experience: Your office leaves too many reminders for the appointment with email, voice message and texts. Maybe you can remind us just once or twice the most?

Fantastic experience: Had tooth pulled and bone graft done and after 1 week still hurting. Going on vacation so I called to get my pain med refilled in case it keeps hurting. Dr Allen had me come in that day to make sure all OK. Check and pulled stitches out and doc reordered penicillin and pain med in case. I know they are swamped but he took the time to be sure! Thank you! Dr Allen Finished implant today. Feels great! I was in office 10:25 for 10:30 appt., but had to wait a good 20 minutes. Usually all is right on time so not a problem. Thank you. Aug 2024: Had 2 small cavities found and Dr Allen got me in a week later. Filled both. Essence Health and Delta covered all. New assistant is excellent too! April 2025 Had emergency hurt and Dr Allen got me in same day! Did X-rays and check and prescription. All good. Concerned because going on vacation in 2 day. Great job again!
Thank you so much for such a thorough review, Vincent! Sorry for making you wait that day, we try our best to be on time but sometimes we cannot predict it. We love how Dr Allen and Ana keep up a good job together!
Fantastic experience: I needed an unexpected appointment and was seen within 3 hours of calling. Everyone was warm, kind and I felt very well taken care of. Dr. Christy is laid back and personable, I can honestly say I enjoyed my trip to the dentist!!
Fantastic experience: Hygienist was friendly and efficient and made sure I was always comfortable. She had a sweet persona.
Thank you for the kind words
Fantastic experience: Susan did a great job cleaning my teeth. She is patient and puts me at ease.
Thank you Cail!!
Positive experience: I was seen by the dental tech at my appointed time. The tech was kind and thorough. My teeth were cleaned, and I was out of the office within the hour.
Thank you for the review Charlene!
Fantastic experience: This was my first visit, and it was wonderful. All the staff were helpful and knowledgeable. Dr. Allen listened to my concern that one of my crowns felt like it was moving. He and his technician got actual data - an x-ray to look for infection, a bite check at that tooth, checking if the crown was indeed loose, and no doubt other data. I am satisfied with his conclusion that this tooth is indeed healthy. My last dentist just blew off my concerns. As a retired engineer I appreciate data-driven conclusions, and that’s what Dr. Allen gave me. This is what I needed. Thank you!
Thank you so much for your review! We're are so glad that you had a great experience here with us!
Fantastic experience: The office staff, hygienist, and doctor were all nice, easygoing, and professional. In and out in under an hour, too!
Fantastic experience: My visit was pretty normal. Everyone there was friendly, professional, busy, and helpful. My treatment was quick, painless, informative, and productive. Julie is a pro. She shows concern and goes the extra mile to help me treat my teeth better each time between visits. Dr. Christy is friendly and gets to the point of how my dental health is doing. VERY GOOD AGAIN!!! I'll be back! Thanks. My visit was consistently great. Late in the day (March 19th ), but did not have to wait. Everyone was polite, professional, friendly, and on their game. Dr. Christy did a great job. The procedure was painless and zero problems immediately afterwards despite my other medication issues. Visit was very good, informative and plans for my next visit. Visit was good again.
Fantastic experience: Two times i have been here. Awesome people and excellent treatment. Everyone was friendly.
Fantastic experience: This was my first visit here and they got me in quickly and the dental assistant and the dentist were very friendly and helpful.
Fantastic experience: Great experience. Everything was done friendly and professionally.
Fantastic experience: Get a filling done and the whole experience was great. My appointment time was 8:00 and the dentist was actually in the room on time, and I was finished by 8:30. The filling is smooth, and I feel like they did an excellent job. I highly recommend this office.

Fantastic experience: The staff is always so pleasant, and explain everything so well! Very happy with all the work I have had done!
Fantastic experience: We followed Dr. Allen from The Hill to Watson. My husband had had bad experiences with previous dentists in other states but he is so pleased with Dr. Allen. The office is state of the art and everyone that works there is friendly and efficient. No matter what neighborhood you may live in, it's worth the drive.
Fantastic experience: I had a good experience. Didn’t have to wait and Julie and Dr. Christy were great. Going to the dentist isn’t fun but they make it a good experience.
Fantastic experience: Kind, caring, gentle and very professional doctors and staff providing excellent dental care. Being new to the St. Louis area and not having a regular dentist since COVID we are so pleased to have found Watson Family Dental. Highly recommend!!!
Fantastic experience: Highly organized, very efficient team and they’ve never tried to “upsell” or suggest work that wasn’t needed.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Allen and staff are wonderful! My wife Mary and I thank you
Fantastic experience: So I've been a good boy about going to the dentist the last 40 years 2 a year brush at least once a day ok maybe not that good on my part. But I can honestly say my teeth have never felt so clean an usually when I leave the dentist my teeth hurt a little. But I have to say they feel great. This is my new to me dentist. Thank You Watson Family Dentist
Fantastic experience: Susan is amazing in her care and skill as dental hygienist. She takes the anxiety out of my routine exams and cleanings. Thank you!!
Fantastic experience: Always friendly, the team goes the extra mile to help me understand my concerns and answer any questions, and I can always be seen quickly!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Christy is absolutely the best. Words don't go far enough so I won't try
Fantastic experience: Had a small cavity right in the middle of my front teeth that I was nervous about getting filled because I had a bad dentist about 10 years ago who did all kinds of crazy things, and I was worried that it would change my smile. I went ahead and got the work done today. Not only was it lightning fast, but it was incredibly easy and I didn't need local anesthetic. I *hope* I don't have to have any more work done but I feel pretty confident that I'm in a good place if I do need it!
Fantastic experience: The were on time, very efficient and professional. All the staff is very friendly. I am very pleased with the work that was done. Dr. Christy is a very good at what he does. Thank you Dr. Christy.
Fantastic experience: 1st visit with Dr. Christy. Everything went very well. Little time in the waiting room. The dental hygienist explained everything she was doing and was very gentle. Dr. Christy thoroughly explained an issue I was having and gave me mutable solutions.
Fantastic experience: My dental hygienist, Susan is a rock star, always teaching me new things about how to better care for my teeth and new approaches in the profession .
Thank You
Fantastic experience: My family joined the Watson Family Dental practice last year. From crowns to cleanings, we’ve received outstanding care. The staff are so friendly and helpful, and hygienists are thorough yet gentle. Dr. Christy and Dr. Allen take their time to explain procedures and make you feel very comfortable. I highly recommend Watson Family Dental.
Fantastic experience: Ladies at the front desk are pleasant to talk to and are friendly.Dr Christy is pleasant and friendly and his helper and he is gentle when working on me.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Allen has the latest in technology to make a crown To fit on an implant.. Very professional care and was in and out of the office in 40 minutes. Highly recommend this dental office.
Thank you so much for your review Cyndi!
Fantastic experience: Dr Allen and his staff are great. He is patient, kind, and his work is very precise. The staff is friendly and efficient. Wish i had found this office years ago.
We love having such a nice patient as you are, Nancy! Thank you for taking your time and leaving us a review, we appreciate it!
Fantastic experience: From entering the office until leaving. The Staff was excellent. Made me feel very comfortable and really appreciated walking me through the procedures step by step. Will recommend you to all my friends and family.
Fantastic experience: I am always happy to have your dentalworker clean my teeth. They clean and polish my teeth and there is no pain or discomfort when they work. I forgot to floss my teeth this morning and your person did a great job of flossing for me. I always look forward to my visit.
Fantastic experience: The service @ WFD is Top notch. All conditions are healthy and good.
Fantastic experience: I have been going to this dentist office for 16 years. Dr. Christy is nice, thorough, and doesn't make you feel rushed. Julie, has magic hands. She is so gentle and reassuring for those that have anxiety about the dentist (my husband.)
Fantastic experience: The extreme patience and compassion I received from both Dr. Christy and the ENTIRE staff is unmatched. What a completely lovely group of people! You see, I’m *that* person who gets white knuckled at even the mildest suggestion of a procedure. When I say everyone there greeted me with sincerity, compassion, and positivity—that alone immediately had as much calming effect as possible on this extremely “nervous nelly.” Believe me, that welcoming did more for me than I expected. It instilled confidence in my choice to visit them and a sense of being in a very safe place—the right place—with professionals who truly care and strive for and expect excellence as a team. (Unfortunately, I have more teeth situations that need to be addressed sooner than later, all due to regretful fear and neglect…tail is between my legs, ashamed. So now I’m in another tooth-related tight spot, but never will that be the case again). Dr. Christy is THE GUY. THE DENTIST. I am not afraid like before. I will not hesitate, procrastinate, or delay in making an appointment, soon, and you would be happy that you did, too. I promise.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Allen is the best around, I refer him to anyone. He is very patient. Your teeth will look amazing when you are done. If your scared of shots like me, 9 times out of ten it's a breeze.
Fantastic experience: I hope I never have to go to another dental facility beyond this one because this has become my comfort dentist. Staff is amazing and I always come away with quality work. the care they take to manage pain and communicate effectively has helped to assuage the dental anxiety I have and built up a huge amount of trust. I seriously hope I never have to go anywhere else for dental services. If i could give them 10 stars I would.
Thank you for the great review Vinay!
Fantastic experience: Had a great first visit at Watson Dental. Friendly staff and Susan explained all the details of what she was doing cleaning, and all that other fun stuff. She was marvelous. Dr Stephen Christy came in with his knowledge and went over the problem teeth and what I would need done. I would recommend this office. Very friendly, and thorough.
Fantastic experience: Always a great experience. The office runs on time. The staff is so nice. Never any discomfort.
Fantastic experience: Pulled my teeth. How good of an experience can that be. Only other negative was too cold inside office. People in office care great. The extraction today January 27th was difficult and removal quite a process. Over a 30 minute plus time period. I had little or no.pain and have confidence Dr Cristy did a good job.
Thank you!
Fantastic experience: Amazing!! Everyone is so very nice!! Root canal done a few months ago. ! I was actually able to relax!!!! Thank you Dr Christy!! Again, visit is great. Everyone is super nice!! No pain! Thank you for your kind words and all you do to make an anxious person relax. Love you all!!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Allen and team are pros. Wonderful services, work, and warm staff & overall experience. I’d refer everyone to join, if in need or search of dental practice
Fantastic experience: I happened across Watson Family Dental after moving back to the STL area. Friendly, caring, and attentive staff. I never thought I’d ever leave a review for a dentist, but I’d give six stars if I could.
