I had a same-day crown placed. And some other dental work when I was there, they were able to accomplish everything all in one appointment. Seriously, what a game changer. The staff was great. I also found them to be more affordable than some of the other offices I’ve been to. Also, if you got something going on with your teeth. The amount of technology that they have available in that office they are going to find the problem that’s for sure.. I definitely will be back!

Everyone is so friendly and welcoming! So glad I made the switch to Dr. Clay’s office. His staff worked hard to make all of our procedures affordable and comfortable. Have had a great Invisalign experience with them. They are also FANTASTIC with our kids! Would recommend them to anyone looking for a dentist.

I would like send out a huge thank you to Clay and Associates for the great job they do today. I actually look forward to going to the dentist now. I can relax and let them do their thing, and then be on my way. They are great people and highly recommend. Look forward to my next visit.

Quick to get me in as a new patient. Communicative every step of the way. Friendly. Up front about costs. Hadn’t been to a dentist in nearly 30 years. They took great care of me and I never once felt ashamed! Would definitely recommend!

Dr Clay and all of his staff are really impressive. Very professional, efficient and really friendly, which helped put us at ease for our first time visit. We will absolutely continue as patients.
– Barbara Colwell
Went to Clay after negative experiences at another dentist. The hygienist, Macy, was absolutely excellent. Dr. Clay was also friendly and warm. Both spoke to me instead of about me and made everything super simple. Even the reception staff were kind from the moment I requested an appointment online until I left my first visit.
– Jenna Hendrix
Friendly, clean, quick, did not have to wait. Excellent service. Drove from Minneapolis to Fort Dodge for the service because previously I received service from them and I know how good Dr. Clay is and his team.
– Nabil Kasti
Everyone here has been so great with my kids! They talk through everything they’re doing so there’s no surprises. They make my kids feel so comfortable that they ask to go do the dentist now! Definitely recommend!
