Greenwood Dental Associates

I first came to Greenwood Dental after a terrible experience at another dentist followin a long period of not being able to afford dental work. I was highly anxious about going to the dentist again, and very concerned about the cost.
I saw Dr. LePera and she was terrific. She recommended a much more conservative course of treatment for my dental issues than a dentist with a flashy office in Denver, and also set up a plan and pricing so that I could address immediate needs and identify which could wait the longest.
Dr. Belegratis took out my wisdom teeth only a week and a half ago and even though this sounds weird, it was a really positive experience. They were so professional and considerate and I felt more tired afterward than any pain.
The staff there is friendly and incredibly considerate. I’ve also had my teeth cleaned there and all the hygienists are amazing.
This is SUCH a great office for someone who has lots of anxiety about going, or is afraid of the pain of treatment. They are always willing to talk it through and work to proactively make you comfortable and happy while you’re there — small things like noise-​cancelling headphones with music from your own phone or ipad, or big things like making sure you have the right amount of anesthesia. Even the waiting room is designed to relax you, it’s a little generic but the lighting is low and the temperature comfortable.
I have now convinced several of my dentist-​phobic friends to go there (and several of them to get dental insurance, which Greenwood accepts). I only wish I’d known about them sooner! I can’t imagine I’ll ever go anywhere else.

Rather than creating a whole new review, I thought I would just post part of an email I sent recently to the Practice Manager at Greenwood Dental Associates.
It is so great to come across professionals in healing and preventive health arts practices who take to heart the primacy of the patient or client, né the person, as they perform the many functions of their roles.
By the very nature of the work, it is inevitable to some extent, that many who present themselve to practitioners of these arts are in quite vulnerable positions. We seek medical attention when we are unwell, which means that in those times we are less able to look out for ourselves. Additionally, the level of skill and amount of knowledge that is required to perform these roles is immense. The actual science behind the work is overwhelming in its vastness, and the many arcane and convoluted institutions that we humans have created to manage the access to and the dispensing of these most fundamentally necessary services, is possibly more complex than even the biological, chemical and physical sciences that underpin them.
So, what I am saying in my rather pedantic way (which I chose purposefully to highlight the grandiosity of the mission that is taken on by we who have chosen, or have been chosen by, vocations in the health and human services), is that it is such a boon, and a veritable restoration of my faith in humanity, to find an organization such at your practice that genuinely puts their patients first, in seemingly every way.
This many times that you have gone out of your way for me speak to the underlying compassion of the culture within the organization and the integrity and dignity of those who create and perpetuate it. These instances stand as exemplar of nearly everything I have experienced as a patient at Greenwood Dental Associates. The care that each of you individually and all of you collectively have shown me, I am convinced is not just because I am such an extremely cooperative and well informed patient (principally about the state of my own health, what I do to maintain and improve it, and with an understanding of what within that are my healthcare providers’ responsibilities), nor is it because I am as good looking, charming, amusing and entertaining as I am (irrespective of how undeniably true that may be). It is the way you all conduct yourselves because you genuinely care for and about the people you treat in your practice.
You do very good work! You not only make people healthier, YOU MAKE THEM FEEL BETTER!

This is the best dental office I’ve ever encountered. From the office staff, to the hygienist (Brian), to the dentist (Dr. D’Hondt), I’ve never been so impressed. I’ve seen them for 6 yrs, and I continue to be amazed at the level of personalized service I get every single time. They are definitely a true find, and I couldn’t say enough amazing things about them.

I think this place is run extremely well. I had an old crown removed today and replaced in a single visit. They use computer aided design and can mill the new crown on the spot. This gives you a bunch of advantages in terms of making certain it is a perfect fit before they fire it. The office is very customer friendly with a comfortable waiting area and surprisingly good refreshments. My dentist is Eric D’Hondt and he did a superb job on my work. These guys are 5280 magazine top dentists as well. You cannot go wrong here.

This is one of the best dental offices I have ever been to. Everyone here is very friendly and helpful. I have yet to experience any problems. I also had my wisdom teeth removed here last week and though having wisdom teeth removed is obviously not one of the most positive experiences they made me feel very comfortable and I didn’t experience any complications. My dentist there is Tasos Belegratis. He is very professional, knowledgeable, and more than willing to answer any questions I may have. Though he is my primary dentist I see there I’m sure the others are just as great. Definitely recommended for those looking for a new dental office.
