The staff are all friendly, upbeat. They greet you smiling, address your concerns, make you feel comfortable, settle your nerves. Dr. Gunelson completes assessment. Gives you options, with a honest recommendation. I’ve been there several times. State of the art equipment. Plus all these fancy tools are used quickly. The dental techs know exactly what to hand him next. If you don’t have Dental insurance, They have this reasonable plan, called the “Smile Club”. You pay a flat fee for the year. Includes 2 or more cleanings per year, assessments, discounts on dental work needed, fillings, etc. A crown is completed in one appointment !!! They make the crowns right there at the office. When your mouth is in pain, it is so nice to have pleasant, calm, experienced professionals helping you.

Thank you and Jimmy again SO MUCH for working on Scott's teeth on your day off.... he won't stop raving about how this has been his best dental experience ever. Even considering the circumstances. Not only did you guys take the pain and inability to eat solid foods away, you gave him his confidence back, and he hasn't quit smiling and looking at his teeth since we got home. He was so excited about them that he even went to school today after his appointment to show his friends his "new smile." I truly can't thank you both enough

We had an amazing experience, my son needed to have some baby teeth extracted due to adult teeth coming in and they went above and beyond to make sure this was a great experience for him.

From someone who has always been terrified of going to the dentist…I’m no longer afraid (as much) best dentist I have ever gone to and the entire staff is so awesome!! I HIGHLY recommend this place!!!
– Pam W.
If I could give 10 stars, I would! My experience with Stanley Hometown Dentistry was second to none, and was the best dental experience I’ve ever had! Not only were Dr. Gunelson and his staff prompt, professional, extremely accommodating and super friendly, they walked me through my procedure every step, making it a comfortable, (I’d even go so far to say enjoyable) pain-free experience. I was able to walk in and walk out and have my complete procedure done in one appointment, as opposed to having to come back multiple times, thanks to their advanced technology. Everything was done in house, making this very convenient for a busy wife, mom and working professional. I cannot say enough good about them and would highly recommend!
– Mindy M.
I ended up having to have some dental work done unexpectedly. Dr. Gunelson explained what needed to be done and answered all my questions. I was concerned about the pain issue afterwards, he assured me no pain. It was the most positive,awesome experience at a dentist ever. During the procedure Dr. Gunelson and staff kept asking how I was doing. Thanks for a great patient experience.

I have always have had a fear of the dentist since I was a child… Well last week I went to Stanley Hometown Dental and had my teeth cleaned for the 1st time in 2 years and I must say I was treated so nicely no lecture on why I wasn’t to see a dentist yearly they just calmed me and took good care of me. Well Friday Feb 12 I went in for a filling and as usual was very scared… Dr. Gunelson came to the waiting room to check on me and to reassure me that everything was going to be fine, well I got in the chair and he gave me a shot in my arm to relax me and than Rosie and Dr. Gunelson sat and talked to me until I was comfortable and even got to cover with toasty blanket. Now I have had sedation dentistry and the old fashion kind of dentistry and let me say…….. this for me was a walk in the park, I got home and had no senseitivity or can not even tell I had work done and they were so gentle and reassuring that I think my fear of the dentist is finally over if not over I have found Stanley Hometown Dental to be by FAR the best place for me to go for my dental work. Thanks you so much for being patient with me and my fears. Sincerely: Debbie Karlen (a greatful patient)
