Fantastic experience: This team never ceases to impress. So professional, courteous and friendly. My husband loves the team as well. Keep up the good work!

Fantastic experience: Mary is the absolute best hygienist ever, and I'm 60, so have had a LOT of checkups. She's thorough, super gentle and careful, professional, not even a bit arrogant, and very knowledgeable. I generally feel like falling asleep during the procedure. She is very patient and quite good at communicating with patients who cannot talk during the exam. She gives me prevident flouride tooth paste so I can keep healthy and avoid cavities, and a little goodie bag with a new toothbrush and floss. She works well with the front desk professionals and the dentists in the clinic - so gracious! I would recommend making an appointment with this clinic every 6 months. Super clean & constantly sanitized. Good lighting. Easy parking in front of the door. Friendly staff. Uncrowded, comfortable waiting area. The insurance billing is painless. Oh,and I like the dentists too! They are gentle when they probe my molars. I like it when the do NOT find cavities. I'd like to keep it that way! Highly recommended.

The dental hygienists are friendly and seem to care about my level of comfort during cleanings. They have given me a lot of information about the connection between my chronic health issues and oral health and always give me good tips for reducing plaque and keeping my mouth as healthy as possible. And, best of all, my teeth always feel extremely clean after appointments! I would definitely recommend Affiliated Dentists to anyone looking for a dentist to visit regularly.

Fantastic experience: I’m a fairly new client at Affiliated Dentists and have been very impressed. The dentist has been friendly and caring. The hygienists have all been excellent, but my latest experience with Mary was outstanding. She was easily the best I’ve ever had in my 66 years. Mary left my mouth feeling clean without the impression that I’d eaten a porcupine. Her chair-side manner and professionalism was the best I’ve ever experienced, and made my trip to the dentist actually a pleasure.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic and friendly staff. Easy scheduling. I feel like my dental health has never been better since I started coming.

Fantastic experience: The staff are very nice and welcoming at the office.

They explain the billing clearly and don’t push procedures like more implants. If you can get by without one they are on your side.

Fantastic experience: Today was my first time here and everyone was so nice and informative! Maggie and Dr. D made me feel comfortable and I will be referring others to them!

Fantastic experience: Best dentist office I’ve ever been to. Everyone is so nice and helpful. Dr Budde and Julie and the staff up front are wonderful. I have been going to them for years. They feel like family. Once again a wonderful visit with Dr Budde and her staff. We have been going there for so long that they ask us about our grandchild and plans and tell us about their kids. It’s wonderful. When Dr Buddie works on my teeth she is so gentle and thorough. She gives me all options and lets me be a part of the decisions. Best place in Madison and all the staff is kind and helpful.

Fantastic experience: Affiliated Dentists SC are amazing. They are professional, organized and explain everything. The receptionists, hygienists , and dentist always do what is best for the patient. I walk in and they know my name. I have had dental procedures and Dr. Porter always makes sure I am feeling no pain and takes breaks for me. The dentists are all extremely qualified and up-to/date on the newest practices. I never worry or feel anxious when I go there. The areas are private, clean and have televisions to distract you if needed. I would recommend them to anyone who is in need of an excellent dental care go there.

Fantastic experience: I had one of the best experiences at Affiliated Dentists on 4/30/25. I had a bad experience a couple years ago at an office in California, preventing me from going back for regular checkups. I schedule to have a crown recemented at this office and everyone was so nice, welcoming and accommodating, so I decided to schedule a cleaning. When I came back for the cleaning I was greeted with a smile and a nice welcome. The hygienist was amazing. She was gentle, and explained everything she was going to do, at each step of the cleaning. She was very focused on my comfort during the cleaning process and kept checking in on me, nothing like what I received at the previous office. The Dr. who did the exam came in with a smile and a friendly greeting. She was clear in what she was checking for and looking at and explained what was needed. I was escorted out to the front office after I was done where they kindly scheduled my next appointment. This was one of the best experiences I have had at a dental office, I will definitely make this my office of choice for continued care. Thank you all so much for making my experience a positive and pleasant one!!

Fantastic experience: They're very patient with my 5 year old. I also feel very comfortable and well cared for by all the staff.

Fantastic experience: Most people don't enjoy going to the dentist, but the folks at Affiliated Dentists do a great job of taking care of your teeth. Never had a problem getting in when I had a concern. Excellent care from start to finish.

Fantastic experience: I have been going to Affiliated Dentists for many years. I enjoy seeing my hygienist Maggie and Dr. Budde is fantastic. I am in and out quickly, but never feel rushed.

Fantastic experience: As always, my visit was awesome. Mary is the kindest, professional dental assistant ever! She explains every move she makes during the cleaning procedure. Because of her I no longer dread dental visits. Dr. Porter, my regular dentist was not available and Dr. Budde introduced herself and was also very personable and professional. I am so pleased with all the staff, including the reception desk personal. Also, the entire atmosphere is relaxing and the office is very clean. I definitely would recommend choosing this clinic for any and all dental procedures.

Positive experience: Staff was amazing, understanding, and very welcoming. Emma was so great, please let her know she is amazing at what she does! Dr Buddy was very nice and knowledgeable. This is was my first new patient visit, they met my expectations and I would definitely recommend family and friends in the area.

Fantastic experience: I've been going to Affiliated Dentists for a couple years now, and I couldn't be happier! My implants look fantastic, and all the ladies are always so friendly and helpful! I always tell them I miss the days when my mom would schedule and take me to the dentist and my dad would pay for it . But they make it super easy for me! I don't dread going to the dentist anymore, I look forward to it! Just completed another crown today. Never thought I'd like going to the dentist as much as I do. Moved further away recently- I'll make the drive to come here!

Fantastic experience: The team at AD are always nice, professional, courteous, and knowledgeable. I recently retired and was not able to get dental insurance in time. I was told about a plan called Kleer. It is affordable and could take effect that day, so I didn't have to pay for the cleaning or X-rays. Great team, great service. I recommend Affiliated Dentists to my peers.

Fantastic experience: Tina deserves a raise and should win the lottery. Literally the best employee and person ever. Would trust her as my emergency contact. We besties

Fantastic experience: Consistently the staff from the clerics to the dentists have been welcoming, informative, caring and so proficient. My routine dental cleaning with Neil is impeccable. Today, I had several issues to discuss and a plan to decide. Dr. Porter took time to explain everything and the clerical staff gave me answers about cost and insurance. My family has been coming to Affiliated Dentists for over 20 years and I can't imagine any other dental care better than this.

Fantastic experience: Went for my cleaning today. I always have Maggie. She’s pleasant and does a great job. I can remember times at my old dentist that I dreaded going but this is easy and comfortable. Dr Gustafson checked me over promptly and I was done.

Fantastic experience: Definitely a 10 out of 10. I have been going to Affiliated Dentists West for quite a few years.

Very caring and friendly. Thank you!
