I visited on 3/5/23 to have a front crown redone. Not sure if anyone has ever had anything done to their front teeth but it can be extremely painful. (I had this procedure at a different place, in which I will NEVER go again). Before I came I was extremely nervous because the time I had it done before left me in tears. This time however was very different. The staff was extremely nice and put me at ease and I can honestly say, I barely felt a thing! Mayfair Family Dentistry, all the staff, and Dr. Holmes will ALWAYS have me for a patient!

I'm over 70 years old, and my teeth have given me troubles for decades for various reasons. I love Mayfair Family Dentistry for the total package of quality care, compassion, and professionalism from everyone there, and it starts with Dr. Arif-Holmes! I have had many very good dentists over the years in various cities, but Dr. Holmes is my all time favorite! If you need a dentist, I HIGHLY recommend them. Their facility is very modern and practically futuristic too. : ) Update 2/18/2026: My routine cleaning/exam was also excellent!
