Vora Dental Care — Establishment and dentist at 12 Case Street, Norwich, Connecticut.

I can't say enough good things about Dr. Vora and her wonderful staff. I've never been afraid of the dentist or hated going, except when it came to Novocain shots. I have TERRIBLE anxiety about them. I've tried laughing gas and it only makes things worse, and while Xanax helps, it's not a solution. I've even had fillings done without being numbed. When I went to my last dentist, he basically told me to suck it up and deal, that there was no alternative. I decided to give Dr. Vora a try after hearing her recommended, and I'm so so glad I did. She was so friendly and professional, and made me feel so at ease. Her bedside manner is unparalleled, and she's also VERY good at what she does—I had to have a filling redone and it took her fifteen minutes without a single second of pain. I'm a total laser convert. I left my first filling practically in tears from relief, and immediately called my husband, my father, and my sister, all of whom have issues with dentists. They're all switching. For my second filling, I felt a moment of pain, and she immediately adjusted the laser and the rest was painless. I also brought my 2-year-old in for an exam and cleaning, and because he's on iron drops he has some light staining on the backs of his teeth, but the hygienist was so patient and friendly he didn't get upset once, even though she used the regular adult scrubber. If you're on the fence, or you're stressed about your next dental appointment, try Dr. Vora. She's heaven sent!!
