Dwayne R Burbach, DDS

Wow. Have read some of the critiques on Doc Burbach’s chairside manner and I think that is part of his charm. I definitely would rather have his stories than the sound of the drill and just silence. I guess to each his own… but it kind of made me sad to read the judgment. I look forward to the chats. He is one of the good guys!

My dental hygienist was very sweet and she did a great job. However, I will not return to the office to hear any more of Dr. Burbach’s chauvinistic comments. When he came in to do the final check, he said, «Howdy. What do you do?» I replied that I had just had a baby and was currently staying home with her. «So, you’re basically a trophy wife,» he said. I pretended like it didn’t bother me, but I was very upset that he seemed to be insulting my intelligence and my worth as a person and new mom. I suggest the good doctor shut his mouth before prying into other people’s.

I had to find a new dentist as mine closed up. I had not been for 2 years since I had a job change and no insurance for awhile. Dr. Burbach’s was a great find. Everyone in the office was efficient and what I appreciated was neither Dr. Burbach nor his dental hygienist made me feel guilty about not having seen a dentist in 2 years, nor did they lecture me about not flossing enough or all the other things I am doing wrong. I’m past middle age and have heard it a million times before and I’m gonna do what I’m gonna do and yet most dental hygienists think they have to teach you all over again and lecture you about all your dental care failings. But the best part was they didn’t find anything wrong with my teeth that would require another visit till my next cleaning in 6 months. Most dentists find something wrong that they need to work on. «Oh this filling looks old and really should be replaced.» «Your gums are in bad shape you need an extra cleaning even if your insurance won’t pay for it.» I felt they were honest and not out to make more money on me. No overselling! So happy to have found a reputable dentist and Dr. Burbach’s personality was great and his hygienist was sweet.

The entire office staff are friendly, welcoming, and competent. I have been coming here since I was a toddler, and have been conisitently satisfied, recommending this office to everyone I know. Dr. Burbach is always friendly amd exceptionally skilled in what he does. I have also seen Dr. Jangard here, and he is skilled as well and very nice.

Dr. Burbach, You did a good job re capping a molar, but I was very uncomfortable with all the sports talk and hunting talk with your assistant. I’m sure she was sick of hearing you ramble on and on about yourself and your interests. I don’t think you realized I was a person in that chair. Just know that some people don’t want to hear about football for an hour with no escape.
