Christy and Dr. Behl spent a lot of time with me making sure I was comfortable
and my anxiety was not ramping up. They both explained exactly what they were
doing before they did it and gave me frequent breaks to catch my breath.
Chris H.
Great staff, and great experience!
Sideburns M.
I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my son. Flawless experience and staff. Highly
recommended.
Tonya M.
Love these folks. They go above and beyond. So much so I am a regular dental
patient! So gentle and caring, I could not say enough.
Christine B.
I've been with this group for about a decade & can't say enough good things
about them. From the dentists to the hygienists to the desk staff, they are
fabulous. I have incredibly high anxiety when it comes to dental work & they go
out of their way to make me feel as comfortable as possible. I've never had a
bad experience & if it wasn't for them I'd still be getting dental cleanings
under real anesthesia due to the fear. They turned that around for me & while I
still feel anxiety, I'm able to get cleanings without any anesthesia, pills,
gas, etc. I've had both large scale & routine work done there & highly recommend
them. Extremely helpful, professional & pleasant staff all around. Wonderful
people.
Victoria J.
A 10/10 Experience!I cannot express how grateful we are for Dr. Thoms and his
team! Their sensitivity, expertise, and dedication made a potentially
challenging dental experience for our daughter as comfortable and stress-free as
possible (for her AND us!).We were very impressed by Dr. Thoms' thoroughness in
explaining the procedure and his willingness to answer all of our questions,
alleviating any anxieties we had. The ability to be present by our daughter's
side as she was falling asleep was a huge comfort factor.We felt a sense of
genuine care and compassion towards our daughter and felt that they treated her
as if she was one of their own. Dr. Thoms and his team clearly go above and
beyond to provide exceptional patient care and makes a complex dental procedure
feel safe, comfortable, and even reassuring. A huge THANK YOU to Dr. Thoms and
his team!
Christy H.
Always a great experience. Carrie does a wonderful job keeping my smile healthy
and bright. Dr. Thoms is always very nice and professional. They make going to
the dentist much less stressful!
Rafe F.
The Dental Anesthesia Center (DAC) is truly unique. They provide all forms of
anesthesia - and a wide range of dental treatments. I have been a patient there
for 17 years - and I continue to be impressed with the legacy of expertise and
kindness built by Dr. Hoffmann and his team.If your dental phobia and dental
issues have made you feel hopeless ... I encourage you to contact the DAC for a
consultation. That's what I did 17 years ago - and it proved to be a very good
decision and a true blessing.
Sally M.
I just had my first visit with Dr. Thoms. He took his time and thoroughly
explained everything to me about sedation and dental procedures. He is extremely
knowledgeable and very friendly. Comfort of their patients is utmost in their
minds at this practice and Dr. Thoms, Emily and Robyn are outstanding! Highly
recommended!
Juanita C.
I just had my implant surgery 3/22 with Dr. Thoms.The patients Dr. Thoms has
with me is simply INCREDIBLE!!!!! I know I’m a lot to deal with. I am so blessed
to have crossed paths with Dr. Thoms.His entire staff goes above and beyond ANY
dental office I’ve ever dealt with in the past. from the bottom of my heart, I
am so glad that I made the decision to try the dental anesthesia center..
Brian L.
Dr. Hoffman and team are the most amazing dental team you will ever meet. Have
been a patient for years and will continue to do so. If you have nerves about
going to the dentist, they will eliminate those fears very quickly.
Paul
AS I SIT HERE THIS MORNING I AM GRATEFUL FOR GOD'S MERCY AND THE STAFF OF DOC.
HOFFMAN !!! I AM HOWEVER STILL TO EMBARRASSED FOR THE WALK OF SHAME BRINGING HIS
GIFT . I LOST TWO DAYS AND WAS CHOKING ON 19 STICHES EATING SUCKERS SAME DAY
SEEMS TO BE WITH MYSELF !!! SO WITH MY SINCERE APPRECIATION, I APOLOGIZE TO ALL
!!! EXCELLENT SKILLS IN ALL ASPECTS.
Dave K.
As a 73 year old man, I have been to several dentist’s and none compare to Dr.
Thoms and Dr. Behl. The entire staff is very knowledgeable and accommodating. I
have had some major work done and I/V sedation is definitely the way to go. Five
stars to the entire team at DAC. I highly recommend their services.
Dan H.
These folks are great!! Always very professional and personable and don't try to
over sell you on what you need done!! I would highly recommend!!
carmin P.
I love my friends at the Dental Anesthesia Center! This place has the nicest
clinical staff and they do such a wonderful job for any issue that arises. They
are prompt and thorough. I love all the hygienists, but especially my personal
hygienist, Carrie. My dentist, Dr. Biehl is knowledgeable, friendly, highly
skilled and fun.I started taking my kids here when they needed procedures under
anesthesia. Once my former dentist retired (and I realized the DAC also does
family dentistry), I switched the entire family to this office. Best decision I
ever made.I’m also so impressed with the experience this team has treating
individuals with special needs.
Response from the owner: Thank you so much for taking the time to post your kind
review!
Juanita C.
I went for a consultation at the center. I was terrified. I saw Dr.Sean Thoms he
was so professional and caring. I have had five different consultations at other
dentist offices trying to make a final decision on who I feel more comfortable
with and no other doctor was as caring or attentive as Dr. Thoms. He called me a
couple of days later with SEVERAL different ways he could give the results I
wanted. I’m truly blessed to have found Dr Thoms. The entire staff was so
professional and attentive. I have made the final decision to put my care in the
hands of Dr Sean Thoms
Response from the owner: Thank you for taking the time to share your experience
with us, Juanita. Your positive words mean so much to us.Cheers,The Dental
Anesthesia Center
James A.
Maris E. Behl DDS Is a wonderful dentist. She did extensive work including
several dental crowns and fillings. There was little to no pain during all of
her procedure’s. I am 86 years old and have been to more dentists than I can
count. Dr Behl is by far the best of all. If you want a friendly disciplined and
accomplished dentist, you will be glad you used her work.
Response from the owner: Thank you so much for your kind words, James. We really
appreciate you taking the time out to share your experience with us.Cheers,The
Dental Anesthesia Center
DeLaina J.
Best dental office in St. Louis hands down! It’s a great place to go for
sedation or just general dentistry! Highly recommend!
Olga B.
I recently had fillings done by Dr. Thoms. His crew that was helping prep me to
go under did an amazing job. I have really bad trauma (& anxiety) from previous
dental work and permanent nerve damage from a surgery I had in 2021. The staff
and Dr. Thoms made sure that I was calm and comfortable. This has probably been
the best experience I have ever had, thanks to this dental clinic. The front end
staff is patient and kind to their patients. I would most definitely recommend
anyone to go here if they have dental anxiety. Dr. Thoms explained everything
very thoroughly during our consult months prior and also the day of my fillings.
After we were finished with my filings, I told him about my bottom teeth pushing
too much on my 8 and 9 (another issue I had been dealing with after my last
dental surgery), he was more than happy to help and filed down my bottom teeth.
I am relieved that he was able to do that for me, even though it was not
initially planned. The price of the fillings, anesthesia and
odontoplasty/enameloplasty was reasonable. I wouldn't want to pay any less
because the outcome was worth it.
Juaniata J.
The entire staff is always very compassionate and patient with my daughter who’s
autistic I am a patient as well the staff and the doctor are very knowledgeable
and are capable of answering every question explaining in detail to my
satisfaction. I am in the process of bringing my grandson to become a patient as
well keep up the superb service
Elizabeth S.
I would highly recommend DAC to anyone. I brought our two boys (ages 6 & 3) in
to have their routine cleaning. The moment we walked in we were greeted with
smiles and warm hellos. The staff does a great job of talking to the boys,
saying hello, and making them feel extra special. Carrie cleaned their teeth,
and she is awesome. The boys were both so comfortable, she tells them exactly
what she is doing, and makes sure they are ok the whole time. She talked with
them about their summer plans, school, and fishing. Then Dr. Behl came in to
check everything out. She was so personable, informative and positive with the
little ones. She explained things very well, and she was so patient as they
asked questions or had something to tell her. Thank you to all of the staff at
DAC, for being so warm and making this a great experience for the little ones.
Brian C.
5 Stars!I skipped going to the dentist for 6 years and what a mistake that was.
Everyone at this office is extremely nice and a pleasure to deal with.Laina,
their hygenist is awesome even though she is a Cubs fan. I actually look forward
to my 3 month cleanings now and will not miss another.Dr. Thoms and his team (I
requested Julie as an assistant I would do the same :)) were amazing. As I said
I skipped going for 6 years so I had some work to be done and chose to be put to
sleep instead of 4 visits. They make sure you are as comfortable as possible and
even take the time to check up on you after to make sure you are healing
properly.Last but not least, Marie and the entire front office are great. Always
a pleasure to deal with and are very accommodating. They are the face of the
operation and the tone of the visit is set with them. The amount of care and
compassion they show the patients in the waiting room is beyond extraordinary.
Sarah G.
I have a special needs son that needed some work done. The Dental Anesthesia
Center is an amazing place I can't imagine Trevor being in any better hands. We
love Dr. Thoms and his staff. So nice and caring. A little on the expensive side
but very well worth the care he received. I would recommend to anyone that has
special needs, fear of dentistry or just in need of a dentist.
Sir M.
It can be frightening to have to put a two-year-old under anesthesia. The staff
and Dr. Thoms took the time to explain the treatment options.The process went
well, and the services were outstanding. Everyone was polite and empathetic,
from the front desk receptionist to the dentists. The customer service was
excellent. I rarely post reviews, but I do so because I want others to know that
they can trust and feel safe with their care. The Dental Anesthesia Center comes
highly recommended from this mama bear.
Rachel S.
My son has autism and a lot of anxiety around medical procedures. This is the
most understanding and compassionate group of people, I am so grateful we found
them. The doctor calls personally to check up on us after the appointment. Even
though we only come once a year they remember my son's needs without me having
to explain everything all over again. They are always on time, organized, and
transparent about billing. I wish all of our medical appointments could go as
smoothly as they do here.
Emily W.
Absolutely wonderful!My five year old had to have extensive dental work done and
from start to finish the dental anesthesia center delivered five star work
!Going to the dentist is scary enough but having to take your own child to be
put under was next level and the care he received from the nurses and dr was
mind easing.
ShiningStar0428
Very kind and compassionate staff. They took excellent care of my special needs
kiddo and took extra time to make sure it was done right. I would highly
recommend.
Madi G.
beyond pleased with our experience with Dr. Hoffman!! My son, Cameron, had work
done and everything turned out way better than I could've ever expected. Dr
Hoffman saved all of his teeth, where other dentist told me the only option for
two of his teeth were to be pulled. His smile is so beautiful and I couldn't
think them enough! They were sooo kind!! The dental hygienist were so sweet, and
throughly explained everything to me. There was no judgement. They made this
whole process so comfortable. Yes, it was pricey, but worth EVERY penny. Thank
you, thank you, thank you!!!
Response from the owner: Thank you so much for taking the time to share. We are
so appreciative.
Clint W.
So caring, so nice, as others said, a little higher priced. But it is worth
every penny. I can't describe how great everyone is
Response from the owner: Thank you so much for taking the time to share this
positive review. It is very appreciated!
Regina J.
We love all the workers there. Their very welcoming staff, but very
professional. We’ve been going there for about 15 years.
Terriona A.
Dr Sean Thoms and his staff were great! The office is very welcoming and they
yook very great care of my 2year old. I would recommend them to the world!
Lejla m
Dr. Hoffman and his staff are amazing, friendly and caring. I have high anxiety
and fear of dentists due to my past bad experiences, but the Dental Anesthesia
Center made me feel at ease and comfortable. Had a lot of dental work done in
one visit while sedated and recovered well. Now I have my smile back thanks to
Dr. Hoffman and his team. If youre a person like me I definantly recommend you
the Dental Anesthesia Center.
Response from the owner: Thank you Lejla, we are happy to help!
Taylor K.
My son is in need for oral surgery and Dr. Thoms was so kind and gentle with my
son! We are so blessed to have found this team!
Response from the owner: Thanks Taylor!
Allan H.
Very professional and clean environment
Response from the owner: Thank you Alen!
Tonya H.
My 9yr old daughter was afraid of going to the dentist. I was referred to Dental
Anesthesia and I must say, they were AWESOME!! Dr Sean Thoms along with the
staff were wonderful. They explained everything they were going to do to my
daughter and kept me well informed during her procedure. They allowed me to be
by her side until she was sedated. They even called later in the day just to
check on her. My daughter said they made her feel very comfortable and would
want to return to this practice for future procedures.
Response from the owner: Thank you so much for your kind words Tonya!
Stacey
I have bad anxiety when visiting the dentist die to a bad experiencein my part.
However, coming here has changed all of that. This is a great office with a
wonderful friendly staff and amazing dentist. I always feel comfortable and
welcomed when I come to their officefor an appointment.
Response from the owner: Thank you so much Stacey!
