"Dr. Salm is an excellent dentist. He is very informative and explains the type of work he is performing and what is needed to resolve any dental issues. We have been going to him for over 6 years and he provides high quality work, from dental cleanings to taking x-rays, to fillings/crowns and more. Ethel, the office manager, responds very quickly and is a pleasure to communicate with. She is extremely helpful in scheduling appointments, and is super helpful in submitting dental claims. She goes the extra mile to help in any way she can. All in all, Adam and Ethel are two of the best professionals you will ever encounter. Highly recommend Dr. Salm and his office staff!"

"Considering it was my first time visit I didn’t know what to expect. On the phone I was immediately welcomed by staff(Ethel) who took care of business- set up appt within 2hrs/I had a loose crown/explained new patient procedure. Dr. Salm (&in-practice staff) were extremely professional, courteous and attentive to my situation. Dr. Salm explained my options in detail, set up follow-up appt/I needed to establish a new dentist in the city, I feel confident I have found the right one."
D.B.
"I've seen Dr. Salm for years and always recommend him to friends looking for a great dentist. Warm and professional, he always takes time to explain X-rays and procedures. I really like that he does cleanings himself, instead of the parade of different hygienists I encountered in other practices I've gone to in the city. His office staff, especially Ethel, are very helpful and friendly. Highly recommend!"
E.S.
"Dr. Salm and his staff, particularly Ethel, provide experience and expertise. They behave professionally and he does not push to do to do dental procedures or work like some other dentists I have used do. That is why I’ve been coming back to him for several years now. I trust him, which is very important."
S.S.
"Dr Salm was very thorough and took very good care of my son. Ethel, his administrative assistant, jumped through hoops for us. She was incredible!!! I highly recommend this practice!"

FAQs
Tooth Be Told
What insurance do you accept?
Please contact our office directly to confirm whether your specific insurance plan is accepted.
How often should I visit the dentist?
Most patients benefit from a checkup and cleaning every six months.
What should I bring to my first appointment?
Please bring a photo ID, your insurance card if applicable, and a list of any current medications.
How often should I come in for a cleaning?
Most people do well with a cleaning and exam every six months. If you have a history of gum disease or a higher risk of decay, we may recommend coming in more often, and we will explain why.
Does a cleaning hurt?
For most people it is uncomfortable at most. Sensitivity and inflamed gums make it harder, so tell the hygienist what you are feeling as you go and they can adjust.
What should I do about a chipped or knocked-out tooth?
Call the office right away and describe what happened. Keep any pieces, rinse gently with water, and avoid chewing on that side until you have been seen.
How white will my teeth get?
Whitening lifts staining, and how much it lifts depends on the natural shade of your teeth and what caused the staining. Crowns and fillings do not change shade, so we look at the whole smile before recommending anything.
What can I do about bad breath?
Persistent bad breath usually has a cause worth finding — gum inflammation, dry mouth, or a tooth that needs attention. Bring it up at your visit; it is a common question and a treatable one.
