We were very pleased with our visit to Dr. Christensen's office. They take time showing the kids everything that they are going to do and make it look very easy. Dr. Christensen was very thorough and explained everything to me. I would highly recommend this office. E.S.

Dr. Christensen is amazing! I was very nervous about taking my 2 year old for her first dental visit today - but she did great! "Dr. John" and his staff were so nice and took their time talking to Carson and showing her everthing they were going to do. She got a "No Cavity" button with her picture on it and lots of other stuff to take home. Whew!! I am so glad she will have better memories of her visits to the dentist than I did as a child (sorry Dr. Morgan!)
I have been taking my two children to "Dr. John" for years and he is a great Pediatric Dentist. Now that my kids are older - he is also their orthodontist. It is great to not have to go to another office for braces. His employees are all wonderful. I think they have all been there since we started going ~ 1995. A++
