CarolinasDentist In the Community
At the heart of our work is the passion to have a positive effect on people’s lives—whether that’s through helping someone achieve their best smile or through supporting our local charities. CarolinasDentist wouldn’t be where we are today without our community, and we love to pay that back any way we can. These are some of the fine organizations that we work with on a regular basis:

NC Missions of Mercy
NC Missions of Mercy is an affiliated outreach program of the North Carolina Dental Society, dedicated to providing free dental care to those in need. Every month, our doctors rotate giving their time and service to the Fayetteville CARE Clinic. We believe that everyone, no matter their situation, deserves access to quality dental care, and NCMOM’s two-day events help between 300 to 3,000 of the state’s most underserved patients.

Cape Fear Valley Health Foundation
The Cape Fear Valley Health Foundation provides programs and services for improving the health and wellness of the community. The charitable gifts they receive go directly to benefiting the patients and families of Cape Fear Valley Health, including enriching cancer, pediatric, cardiac, and diabetes care; funding nursing education; providing rehabilitation services; and more.

Communities In Schools Cumberland County
As the nation’s leading dropout prevention organization, Communities In Schools create personalized plans for at-risk students to set them on the path towards graduation and success. Every year, they help 1.5 million students across the country. In Cumberland County, they serve students across 56 schools.

My experience here has been amazing! Brooke was the best hygienist I’ve ever had! She is very thorough but very gentle. I could've laid there all day! Everyone in the office has such great energy. Never thought I’d say I’m looking forward to my next cleaning ???? highly recommend !

Read MoreI have visited many dentists in the area over the years but was searching for a new one (sadly I am a fearful patient). Dr. McDaniel was understanding of my apprehension, and while she recommended a crown for a broken molar, she honored my request to "patch" the broken tooth. She also used a different numbing medication (novocain has never worked for me), and for the first time in 50 years, I had NO PAIN. Because of this experience, I will absolutely keep up with my dental health and not just visit because I have a specific problem. The entire staff was very friendly. I am so relieved to have found a dentist who is actually willing to work with me without being condescending. Read Less
Sonya Moss5/12/2022I really don’t like going to the dentist but I really like Carolinas Dentist. I told them about previous experiences with other dentists and they were really understanding. Dr. Drew made me I feel really comfortable and anxious free. The dentist and staff were really polite and professional. Really recommend them

Read MoreBest dentistry that I've been to in a long while. I originally went in for an emergency appointment due to breaking a tooth. I also don't have insurance and was EXTREMELY nervous but the receptionist was amazing and super sweet. She made me feel at easy about my situation. My wait wasn't very long. The dental assistant (I forgot her name) was amazing and so was Dr. Mullins. He was able to find a solution to help me without breaking the bank (for someone without insurance). I had to come back the next day which was totally fine and I still received excellent service from everyone and Dr. V. If I wasn't moving I would definitely continue to go back. The office is super clean and location is easy to get to. I highly recommend going here Read Less
Marisa LeBlanc4/22/2022Everyone at this clinic is great. I had a root canal done this morning and the procedure was painless. The dentist was so informative before the root canal, explaining the whole process. The office staff, dental assistants and dentists are very professional and very nice.

Pristine is how I would describe their office. The staff is friendly, informative, and caring. Love the same day crown option. If you can love having a crown done. Dr. Lundgren is awesome. She takes time to explain what is going to happen and why it is necessary. In my case she notice some symptoms showing up in my teeth the could indicate a medical condition, she suggested I speak with my general Dr., I did and she was correct. You can not ask for more from you dentist. I have definitely found my dentist! Read Less

Everyone I came in contact here was really nice & polite. The equipment was top notch technology. They showed & went over everything with me even though I was the last appointment of the evening. We came up with a dental plan to treat my dental issues one at a time. Besides all of this my favorite was the later appointments after work and the massage chair. Could have stayed in that chair all night. Looking forward to them tackling my dental needs. Read Less

Ahyana Cox12/27/2022Loved my visit to the dentist, says no one ever. But this time it's true. Everyone was extremely professional and thorough with their explanations & care. If you're a fan of technology, it's also pretty cool at the Chapel Hill location.
Christen Steele10/20/2021Everyone is great. They all work as a team to make sure your visit is enjoyable (as possible), safe and complete. I recommend Carolina Dentist to the young and the young at heart.
Mark Cosentino12/15/2021I had my first appointment today and it was great. Dr. Z provided helpful treatment suggestions and referrals. Victoria was incredibly kind, was thorough in explaining the steps throughout the cleaning, and left my teeth feeling squeaky clean. I’m happy with the service I received. Thank you!
Jailene Nieves3/15/2022My overall experience was exceptional. I received a very thorough cleaning and received very informative facts about my dental issues by my dental hygienist, dentist and the receptionists. I really appreciate the dedication and thorough work. Thank you!
Ofelia Calderon12/10/2021Let’s be honest, if you look forward to going to the dentist then you need to get out more. That said, this place is fantastic. The massage chairs, the staff and the dentists are great. This is truly my favorite dentist office I have ever been to.

They were able to get me in same day. Office staff was wonderful and got me checked in right away. Within 5 mins I was in the chair.
