Michael Mulick, DMD

I am generally not a fan of dentists, but Dr. Mulick is an exception. I’ve now seen him for over a decade, and he does a terrific job. Having seem most of the other people who help the dentists there at one time or another, I’ve been impressed that I have liked all of them.

I’ve been having extensive work done on my teeth and have to say that my experience has been great thus far. After having had some questionable dental experiences in my past as well as general anxiety about the whole «going to the dentist» thing, I can honestly say that I completely trust Dr. Mulick and his staff. The office is super clean, his equipment seems to be technically very advanced. Dr. Mulick is a straight shooter and works with great efficiency all the while be in-​tune with my comfort level. It can be hard to find an honest, likable and competent doctor but I feel so relieved I’ve finally found one in Dr. Mulick.

If you’re looking for the best dentist in Seattle, Dr. Michael Mulick is your guy! I’ve never left his office without the proper guidance towards the best dental health. As a Seattle University student, I highly recommend the location, availability, and convenience to any resident of the Seattle area. Dr. Michael Mulick is very professional and caring. He has the newest and greatest dental technology available to all of his patients. To avoid the sound of the drill, Mike gave me the opportunity to listen to headphones during my last filling. Which was awesome! I highly recommend Dr. Michael Mulick.

I have been a patient at Dental Care Seattle for a long time, and I have always had such great experiences there! The staff and doctors are super informative and thorough. I once broke my front teeth and they were able to fit me in to their schedule., and get me out of pain (with front teeth again!!)They are so great, I definately recommend this office for your dental needs!!!

An update: Dr. Mulick can try to justify his high prices however he likes but the fact remains that you can easily visit another dentist 4 miles away from his overpriced zip code and clinic without having to pay for parking downtown and get better quality services. The update part of this review: I recently visited another dentist 2 miles from Dr. Mulick and the x-​rays showed that I had no new cavities but that the the fillings that I had placed at Dental Care Seattle had gaps behind them and needed to be replaced and done correctly. This is not what I would call a value for the money! Definitely would not recommend!

I recently got back from the dentist very pleased with my final results after being kind of a pain in the ass, so I am writing this review as a thank you to Dr. Mulick’s office and his staff. I want people to know that they have treated me very well — better than any dentist I’ve had before in my 20+ years of dentist visits. I went for a cleaning & exam, zoom whitening, and bonding on my six top front teeth.
The first time I went, I can’t remember the first hygenist’s name but I worked with her and Dr. Curalli who took excellent care of me. They even were kind enough to answer some silly questions I had like why is it that I salivate so much when I’m making out with someone, do you see something wrong with the inside of my mouth? or I feel like my gag reflex is really bad, what can I do to make that better… that sorta thing. I don’t get my mouth examined very often (in a medical capacity at least) so of course I’m going to ask these questions to people I think would know the answer! And besides, it’s fun to make people laugh. ^_​^ Anyway, I told them about the cosmetic plans I had in mind for the future and they were great at helping me understand the different options they had available.
On my second visit I had zoom whitening done as well as composite work done by Dr. Mulick to replace the old bonding I had done for fluorosis on my top teeth about ten years ago. On top of that I had a special request — to increase the size of my top canines to make them look more pronounced and masculinize my smile. I’ve seen guys with big canines and I always think it makes this sorta look is very sexy. not twilight exactly, more caveman, more werewolf than vampire if you will, though not something that would interfere with the ability to eat, talk, etc. He suggested veneers which of course makes sense and I am on board with going that route in the next year or so but he also agreed to my suggestion which was that in the meantime we could try to do it with composites and let me ‘wear’ them to figure out if doing something more permanent with veneers was the route I want to go in the future. He explained all the risks since composites are not as strong as veneers but he was very cool and patient with me through the entire process. I’m not sure that anyone has requested this type of thing from Dr. Mulick before but I can tell you that he worked very hard to accommodate me to achieve exactly the look of my teeth that I was going for. It was tricky work and it took about three visits for me to get it just exactly how I wanted, but the reason for that many visits was because (1) I was being very particular about what I want and (2) he was taking a conservative approach, slowly building and shaping them, letting me wear them for a few days to see what I thought, etc. I had never thought of a dentist taking that kind of approach before and not only is it smart, but it also allowed to where if I needed a slight adjustment on something in a week or two from my last visit, he didn’t charge me extra or anything to fix it. By taking smaller steps to build up to something unique that relatively few people request of their dentists, Dr. Mulick was able to expertly craft my smile to reach the exact goal I had in mind. His assistants Brooke and Vanessa were totally awesome too — they helped talk me through my concerns, guided me on my thinking for what I was going for, and did everything they could to make me feel completely comfortable and free of worry.
Dr. Mulick and his staff provided excellent care. They are caring, very personable, super patient (especially with someone as high maintenance as me!) and extremely knowledgeable. If you’re looking for a good cosmetic dentistry or just a regular one, Dr. Mulick’s office is the place to go. It’s close to cap hill /​first hill and conveniently located on several bus routes or just within walking distance if you’re not too far from Seattle University. People are really taking notice of how cool my smile looks now and I tell all of them that I’ve been to a few other dentists on the hill and this is THE place to go if you can. I’m incredibly satisfied with my experience and hope that if you’re in the market for a new dentist or need cosmetic work that your regular dentist doesn’t do, you give Dr. Mulick’s office a try. You may never go to a different dentist again.

Best dentist in Seattle, and he’s pretty funny as well.

The dental care I’ve received at Dental Care Seattle is significantly better than anything I’ve received anywhere else. Dr. Mulick seems skilled and thoughtful, but as a patient one’s interactions are primarily with people who I think are called dental hygienists, and they are fantastic. I think my mouth is *much* healthier due both to their care itself as well as their education on how I should care for my teeth on my own. Great patient-​centric dental practice.

Dr. Mulick and Mary are amazing! Very thorough and informative! Best dental cleaning I’ve ever had! Everyone in the office was super polite and professional. I even met Dr. Mulick in the elevator before my appointment and he was very sweet. Mary is the best dental hygienist, so caring and makes sure that your comfortable the whole time. I would recommend them to anyone.

I was a patient of Dr. Mulick’s for nearly ten years until May of 2008. I ended my relationship with him and his office because his despicable office manager refused service to me in a time of crisis.
Fifteen months ago, I called my dentist, Dr. Micheal Mulick, with a dental emergency. The woman that is the office manager (a heavy-​set woman with long fingernails and eggplant-​colored hair) informed me that I would have to pay in full before I could get any assistance. When I told her that I HAD insurance and was a long-​time patient, she just said that because I was late with two payments four years prior (my company changed insurance providers), «there was nothing that could be done.» I reiterated that I was calling because of an emergency, but she wasn’t impressed.
I wasn’t in a position to pay hundreds, if not thousands of dollars at that time, so I questioned her as to whether I should find another dentist, to which she quickly said, «fine!» and immediately hung up on me! That’s how patients with a dental emergencies get treated? Despicable!
I’ve since found myself a fantastic dentist in downtown Seattle, G. Glenn Buchanan, DDS, PS, that employs a wonderful staff.

My daughter and I have been patients of Dr. Mulick’s for eons! Nice guy … and he appreciates a good piercing story, too! If you’re heading to the dentist, give him a try!
