“I did not have a dentist in the Seattle area and choose Thomas Dentistry because they were close and nearby. Boy, did I strike gold! I hadn't been to the dentist in a while and I needed some work done to get clearance for a other medical procedure. They were so great in getting me set up and expediting my treatments. Everyone was very professional and friendly. I can highly recommend them for your dental work.”

“I have had a ton of dentistry done and have been to alot of dentists. These folks have it together. Just had a molder crown replaced. Quick ,completely painless and my bite is perfect 1st try. Absolutely no adjusting and then they repaired a front tooth I had broken after quickly epoxy in molder. This was the 2nd appointment to install crown and I was only in the chair 20 min. Went like clockwork and looks awsum. Thanku. Only thing better would be free haha!”

“I needed a dentist close to home and they are close enough for me to walk. I've been twice now and both times had a great experience. Dr. Jaswal has a wonderful chair-side manner and super sense of humor.”

Happy Client from Kirkland Office
“Great dentist! I came after Covid for my first checkup and cleaning, and ended up needing to have some childhood crowns replaced. During the process they were very thorough, even once getting a crown remade to have a perfect fit. One of those visits came in under the estimate. I appreciate the care they take in their practice. The staff are always nice and fun to talk to. Since my first series I’ve come here for over a year and have always had great experiences. Still need to floss more but the dentists and assistants are super nice about it! Also have great reminder system, and are very patient and thorough when working on insurance issues.”
Vanessa Hoffman
Happy Client from Kirkland Office
“This was my first dental visit and I must say they were definitely unorganized as their X-ray machine kept freezing the images delaying my appointment and they’re not put together. The manager Carmen told me I was going to have to pay a $70 balance. Which I completely agreed on no problem. I got a bill for $140 and was never told I had a $50 co-pay on top & they don’t use silver filling so I had to pay extra for a white filling. I was not told about any of these extra charges. The manager Carmen hung up on me over the phone without trying to fully explain everything and was very rude to me. I would not recommend this dentist because they are not truthful and they want you to pay double your bill so please be careful.”

Faith Hutcherson
Happy Client from Kirkland Office
“Really enjoyed my experience here for a teeth whitening. The Kirkland location is great; it’s close to the freeway so it’s easy to find, and there was designated parking for patients. The staff (I’m talking from front desk to assistants to the doctor) were all very friendly and extremely efficient. I was talked through what they were doing so I felt at ease the entire time.”
