Bloom David I Jr, DDS

Not that going to the dentist is ever a comfortable experience, but Day Hill Dental comes close.
The positives:
1) The facility is very nice, with (what I think is) top notch equipment. When I’m at a doctor’s office, I want to know that they buy the most up-​to-​date equipment, and that they know how to use it.
2) The staff is very friendly. We can all admit that being at a dentist’s office doesn’t exactly put us in a great mood. The staff at Day Hill Dental understands that, and is very kind without being overbearing (i.e. without the fake smiles and cheeriness).
3) The care is excellent. My hygientist and dentist (Dr. Farber) quickly did the cleaning and exam, and thoroughly explained what was good and what wasn’t so good. They also explained things in a non-​judgmental way. I’ve been to far too many dentist offices where you feel like you’re the kid who forgot his homework assignment. Not so here — they want you to take care of your teeth, but don’t make you feel like you’re a naughty kid being lectured.
If you live in the area, I would highly recommend Day Hill Dental.

Having never been much of a fan of dentistry (this sort of thing happens when you’ve had 11 teeth removed over various points in youth via the wonders of Novocaine and yanking), I am generally impressed with the work of Dr. Bloom and his dental hygienists. They take Delta Dental (always good for those of us with Delta Dental), and the hygienists know what they are doing, pointing out various issues with teeth and identifying cavities and problem areas.
Dr. Bloom himself also has an excellent bedside manner (or is it chair-​side?). He also gives helpful recommendations in the case one can’t get back into his office in time (he was able to direct me to the UNC Dentristy school to get some cavities done).
Also, they have that cool white cavity filler stuff that’s always good fun :)
