Amy

I'm here from Meridian, Idaho and I had my smile remade by Dr. Pilling here at Aesthetic Smiles.  My situation for Dr. Pilling is a very different situation—I had an accident and he met me at his office at 3:00 in the morning and he was very, very helpful and very proficient in his ability to what had happened.  His ability to get me from where I was then and where I am today had made me very confident in him.  I was really unsure of how this was going to turn out for myself because I did have to have bone graphing  and Dr. Pilling definitely walked me through each individual step and the progress in the future and definitely helped me understand what was coming up next for the procedure.  Here at Dr. Pilling's office it's a very different experience—it's a very warm experience.  Everybody is very friendly.  It's kind of like they make you feel like you're here and you're family here.  I would tell other people to definitely come to Dr. Pilling's office, due to the fact that he has helped me so much and he has definitely helped me regain my confidence in smiling because I did have an accident and he has helped me quite a bit.  Love your smile Idaho!.

Bille and Reed

[Bille] We have come to have Dr. Pilling do our teeth   We live in Morgan Hill, California which is just south of San Jose.  [Reed] The reason that I wanted to get my teeth fixed is that they were really short because I grind my teeth—or I did.  When I would smile there wasn't really much in the way of teeth that you could see, so it's nice to have a nice smile now.  [Bille] I had wondered for years if I should have braces just to improve my bite, my overall dental health—which Dr. Pilling said yes was very necessary.  And then, when I got them nice and straight, the individual teeth weren't all that pretty so I thought, I  had gone through all this trouble I want them to be pretty too.  I had seen pictures of work that Dr. Pilling had done so I decided that I would be happy to turn my smile over to him and let him work on me.   I had seen actual patients that he had completed their work so I was very impressed.  I thought they looked really natural and great so I had confidence that he would do a great job on me.  Pain is my big thing—give me drugs, do whatever it takes to make me comfortable—you have to have a certain amount of anesthetics and they were administered nicely.  The gals that work here are so warm and friendly—very personable.  The chairs are really comfortable—they had a massage going the whole time, TV on the ceiling—kind of relaxing, take your mind of what's going on in your mouth.  It's just a very comfortable atmosphere.  [Reed]  I think I would recommend Dr. Pilling to anybody that has  to have this kind of work done or wants to have it done.  [Bille]  It's a great thing and I hope to have quite a few more years left and I wanted my teeth to last for another 20 to 25 years at least, please.  I wanted to have the confidence and I don't want to be doing this down the road I wanted it done now so I could feel good.  [Reed]  My new smile makes me feel really good.  For the first time since I can remember, I am able to eat a steak and bite into it—I haven't been able to do that for a long time.
[Bille and Reed]  Love your smile Idaho!


Brad and Jenni


[Jenni] We chose Dr. Pilling because we wanted the best dentist we could have and we've had other dentists that we didn't think were necessarily bad, but after we learned what Dr. Pilling could do, we definitely wanted to come to him.  Before coming to Dr. Pilling I didn't necessarily not like my smile—there were certain things that frustrated me.  I had a tooth that didn't look like the rest of them and as a lot of dentists would say, oh you can't see it don't worry about it--but, it really bothered me.  So when I came to Dr. Pilling and him noticing it, bothered me.  And, him having the confidence to fix it was really nice so he took care of that tooth and since then I'm not embarrassed to smile and I feel more confident.   [Brad]   One of the great things that I have always enjoyed about here is the professional atmosphere—you never wait.  If you're on time they'll get you back there and then they get working on you—I've never had to wait.  [Jenni]  It's really nice to come in and feel like you're at home—you know Dawn and you know the receptionist and you know all of his staff and they're all friendly and they know you by name  [Brad]  It's a nice atmosphere, there are nice amenities for us to watch a TV while we're being worked on, which takes your mind off of everything, helps you relax.  There's massage chairs which is fantastic.  One of the great perks with coming here is they have a place for your kids and you can also watch them on the TV to see how they're doing while you're being worked on.  [Jenni]   I would tell people who are interested in getting their smiles improved to definitely go to Dr. Pilling  [Brad]  I would have to agree—Dr. Pilling.  He knows what a good smile looks like and he knows how to make that smile happen.  So, hands down, Dr. Pilling is the person to go to to get your smile going   [Brand and Jenni]  Love your smile Idaho!

Deanna

I'm Miss Meridian 2008 and I  came to Dr. Pilling's office to get my teeth straightened out.  Since having my Invisalign put in, I have more confidence in my smile.  A lot of people notice that I'm a lot more excited and I smile a lot more, so it's definitely made a difference and a big impact in my life.  You know, I've actually had some really terrible experiences in the past with going to the dentist, so I've always been a bit terrified when I came in.  And, I did mention that to Dr. Pilling the first time I sat down and had a consult and he immediately put me right at ease by talking to me about the procedures, how we would go about it—gave me all the education and information I needed so I could make the best decision.  I would definitely recommend Dr. Pilling and his staff to help them out with their smile.  This has been a great experience for me, coming from being scared to go to the dentist office-- I enjoying coming here and visiting with Dr. Pilling and his staff.  They have gone way beyond my expectations so I would recommend them to anybody.  Love your smile Idaho!


Dennis

I had my smile done by Dr. Pilling here at Aesthetic smiles.  When you first walk into the lobby you're greeted by a great smile from the receptionist and from that point on it's a very pleasant experience.  I was really impressed with first, the staff and how friendly they were, but the equipment that's used is High-Tech, all digital.  I really like the massage chairs—those are great.  And, being able to watch ESPN while I'm having work done was perfect.  I chose Dr. Pilling because he basically does everything in-house.  A previous experience I had, I had to go to an oral surgeon then return back to the dentist for some additional work and I thought something was being lost in the transition.  So, having everything done in one spot by one person was great.  Dr. Pilling was able to ease some of my anxieties by first explaining what the process was that he was going to go through and telling me in quite a lot of detail what it was that I could expect.  As a result of that, as I was going through the various visits and processes, it was exactly what he explained and a lot less painful than what I thought it might have been.  So, I think overall what he had described to me was exactly what he delivered.  My new smile makes me feel very confident.  I don't have any issues with breaking out on a big laugh anymore—it's great.  Love your smile Idaho!



Dede

I live in Meridian, Idaho and I came to Aesthetic Smiles to improve my teeth, because they really needed work done.  I have been grinding my teeth for years and they were worn down and really short. So, when he came here I asked him about dental veneers and we just made the decision to get them put on.  My new smile makes me feel more attractive, younger—I can smile at people more and I feel like my teeth are nice and white.  A lot of people just ask me if I got my teeth whitened and they don't really notice that I had a whole bunch of work done—so that's good, so it doesn't look fake.  It's a good experience coming here and he's very professional and he's not going to do something that you don't need   Love your smile Idaho!

Donna

I live here in Meridian, Idaho.  I'm currently seeing Dr. Pilling--he's improving my smile.  We're kind of in the middle of my procedure.  Dr. Pilling has a friendly, warm staff—they all have beautiful smiles.  When I came in, they all made me feel so comfortable and when I talked to Dr. Pilling he assured me that he could take care of all my needs.  I love it here—I make my cup of coffee, I read good magazines –it's nice, it's warm.  I was going to have implants done maybe 10 years ago and I kept postponing, postponing, postponing, but when I came to Dr. Pilling he made me feel like it was just an everyday thing, it would be not a problem and I would be very happy with my teeth.  And I know that's the way it's going to be because of the confidence that I have in Dr. Pilling and his latest techniques and his staff.  My new smile makes me feel wonderful.  My husband looks at me and he thinks my teeth look beautiful.  Love your smile Idaho!

Holly

I'm from Boise, Idaho and I came to Dr. Pilling to have my smile improved.  After 19 years I decided it was probably about time to get a dentist.  I actually met a lady at my son's pediatricians office who told me about Dr. Pilling, how kind he was and how great, and she had this beautiful smile.  And so, I called Dr. Pilling's office and he was so nice.  My new smile makes me feel so much more confident and so much better about smiling.  I think that coming to Dr. Pilling has made a drastic improvement because I didn't go to a dentist for a long, long, long time –over a decade.  So, by the time I came in I was very nervous and I wasn't very confident about my smile and Dr. Pilling's staff was so nice and took such good care of me and now I'm very confident with smiling.  I feel so much better about going places and smiling and just being myself.  I've actually told a lot of people about Dr. Pilling and his whole staff and how nice they are.  I do have lots of other friends that have neglected their teeth over the years like me and I told them not to be afraid and that Dr. Pilling is so nice and he is so considerate and his staff is so wonderful and to not be afraid and to just come on in and give Dr. Pilling a try—he's really, really nice.  Love your smile Idaho!

Karen

I live here in Meridian and I came to Dr. Pilling to improve my smile.  I chose Dr. Piling because he had a great reputation in the area for cosmetic dentistry.  Coming in for my first appointment, I was very overwhelmed by how beautiful the office is—the amenities that they had.  Being greeted with a warm coffee and the receptionist was just outstanding, wonderful.  My new smile makes me feel confident and wonderful.  Love your smile Idaho!

Mel

I live here in Lochsa Falls in Meridian, Idaho.  My new smile makes me feel good.  I've always kind of covered my teeth up when I smiled until Dr. Pilling replaced most of my upper denture.  Dr. Pilling, I believe, uses some of the most advanced equipment and techniques in dentistry.  I've been going to dentists for a long time and the way he conducts himself, the way he handled me is outstanding.  I enjoy this office because of the people that work in the front.  They're really warm, caring and I have never had any trouble with my billing or anything else.  It's a good dental facility.  So, look at my smile, look at my teeth, look at what he did for me and I feel very good .  I feel a lot better in public, I feel a lot better at parties.  To be able to just smile and be free with yourself and with who you're with is very, very nice.  Love your smile Idaho!

Melissa (Miss Idaho)

I'm Miss Idaho, U.S.A. 2009.  I love my new smile.  My new smile makes me feel very confident in myself.  Working in the dental filed for about 5 and half 6 years, a smile is very important to me.  It's kind of for your inner beauty—it shines.  Being a dental hygienist, I'm very, very picky on my veneers.  I wanted somebody that I could trust inside and out and who I personally knew and firsthand had seen their work and that's Dr. Pilling.  He's the one that I found and worked with and trusted to do my teeth.  I love Dr. Pilling's office.  The second you step inside the office, the front door your don't even feel like you're in a dental office.  It's very homey, it's very clean and refreshing.  Dr. Pilling makes it very, very comfortable here, he has top notch everything from TV's to watch a the ceiling—music.  That makes it different from any other office I've ever been in.  Love your smile Idaho!

Sharon
 
I live in Meridian, Idaho.  I came to Dr. Pilling because I had crowns in my mouth that had been there for 50 years—teeth different colors.  And, I knew that I would be losing teeth if I didn't find me a good dentist.  I researched and found Dr. Pilling to be the one I wanted to come to.  My new smile makes me feel happy.  I'm able to smile without trying not to smile.  The reason I chose Dr. Pilling—I researched it on the Internet—he had a fantastic background.  Dr. Pilling really made me feel comfortable and showed me pictures on the television screen he had back there for work he'd done.  And, when I went into it I was quite comfortable.  I turned 70 this year and one of the best things that ever happened to me was a gift Dr. Pilling gave me of a smile.  Love your smile Idaho!

Susanne

I'm from Meridian and I came to Dr. Pilling to have my smile improved.  The thing that I did not like about my smile before seeing Dr. Pilling was—I'm a severe grinder and no dentist had ever approached me about that issue before.  My teeth looked like I was an 80-year-old person.  I chose Dr. Pilling to do my smile because of the way he explained things—we went over my treatment plan and what needed to be done and I felt like he had my best interest at heart.  I just had total trust in him.  People that I hadn't seen for a while or people that I had seen everyday were stopping me and talking to me and could not believe—they knew something was different but they really couldn't put their finger on it.  But, the response was so wonderful.  Love your smile Idaho!

Teresa

I'm from Meridian Idaho.  Prior to my smile now, I had some gaps and I had a missing tooth so I wasn't able to fully widen my smile and I had some little chips and I was just very unconfident.  I needed to find a dentist and I wasn't sure which way to go.  So, I found Dr. Pilling and I came in for an initial consultation and just the way I felt talking to him and being around him, made me feel more comfortable to let him go ahead and do the rest of the work.  My new smile makes me feel very much more confident than I did before.  I'm able to smile brighter and wider.  I have noticed that the more that I'm out and around my friends and people—they comment more on my smile because I smile more.  Another great thing about coming to Dr. Pilling is I was able to get my husband and my kids to come in, who are very afraid of dentists and they were very relaxed, very comfortable and even commented on that's who I would like to go to to have the rest of my work done; because they felt so comfortable.  Love your smile Idaho!
