Just moved to Springfield. I was looking for a new dentist and Orthodontist for my 3 kids. I was able to get a appointment fast for all 3 kids for the same time. Dr .Melanson was very nice and welcoming he was great with the kids. The assistants were also very kind. I highly recommend this dentist.

We had a wonderful experience with Celebrate Dental & Braces. I received an unexpected call from my sons school nurse regarding his upper space maintainer coming loose and hanging out of his mouth. With our primary being closed on Mondays, I had to pick my son up from school while calling around the city. Celebrate dental & braces were the only team that could get us in. I didn’t realize there was such an awesome team in our neighborhood. The staff is friendly (and hilarious) They were able to provide my 9 year old with the best care on short notice and it didn’t cost us a fortune.

I am very happy with the result everyone is very nice and overall wonderful people. Everything was done efficiently and in a timely manner. Dr.Lee and Michelle are probably the only dentists that actually listened to me and what was bothering me.

I was skeptical about going to the dentist and was so self conscious about my smile. Dr akin and Ms Phylis have went above and beyond my expectations & made me feel so comfortable and important through the entire process. This was a life changing experience! Absolutely amazing results! I would highly recommend them to anyone!

This place came highly recommended. As someone who hadn’t been to the dentist in several years and had my reservations, my experience was wonderful! I will be recommending everyone to come here. The staff and Dr. Lee are so kind and informative. 10/10 :)

This place is amazing. They’re all so friendly and AMAZING with my babies. My 3 yr old is so shy & scared of going to the dentist and Doctors but she did so great with them and they made her feel comfortable. I recommend going here for yourself and your kiddos. Also they take all types of insurance including Medicaid, thats very rare in Springfield , so thats amazing. And they got us in the same week we called ! It’s very clean there and just overall a great place. 10/10 !

This place I give 2 thumbs up! Chris and Dr. M are amazing! So glad I found this place for our family. 10x better than Jordan Valley. Able to get in quickly, the staff are kind and gentle with children.They explain in detail of what is going on. If I could I'd give 10 stars I would. And the hours of operation are awesome for everyone's schedule.

Called and less than a day later they got 4 appointments for me and my kids and was able to do filling and cleanings all same day! Super fast and very friendly! So much better than Jordan valley and they take state insurance!

I have had great experiences at Celebrate Dental. Every time I have an appointment they are very kind and show they care about their patients. Dr. Lee and the other associates I interacted with are great conversationalists and answered any questions I had. We had great talks talked about Christianity and past experiences. Additionally, they were able to reschedule my appointments in a timely manner when I had scheduling conflicts come up. The only odd thing I’ve had happen is when my text reminder said my appointment was at 5, but then sent another saying it was at 6. In that case I just had to call the office to clarify. Is it weird that I’m a little excited for my next cleaning appointment?!

Hands down the absolute best dentistry in town!!! You can tell that they love what they do here.The energy is positive and bright. Dr.Lee & Michelle actually listened to me and made my whole experience beyond comfortable. I felt like they really wanted to help me. They care.They know how to communicate. Celebrate accepts all kinds of insurance. This place is a blessing.They don't make you wait 3 months to be seen either!I had to add that my teeth look and feel amazing today. Dr.Lee went above and beyond!!!

Celebrate Dental is amazing and that is coming from someone who dreads going to the dentist. They have saved our family thousands of dollars! They are very friendly and take the time to put your kids at ease, show them exactly what is going on with their teeth on x-rays, and have a terrific doctor. I highly recommend :)

Really enjoyed my visit the Dentist and hygienists where very kind and thorough explaining what all needed to be done. They also take Medicaid which is great. A downside was the wait times as it had been almost an hour past my appointment time before I was pulled back , then more waiting after the assistant did my cleaning. So my appointment which was supposed to start at 3 pm didn’t start til closer to 4pm and I wasn’t out til almost 5pmBut I’m sure that will improve overtime and as they get more staff. I look forward to continuing to visit celebrate dental.

I came here today for a check up and visit, and the dentist, Dr. Melensen and all the techs treated us great and were very nice. They take all insurance, including Medicaid, and are very well-practiced. The office is clean and well taken care of. Made us feel very welcome and respected!
