Very professional practice. Best dentist that I've ever had. Staff in office are outstanding. Very thorough and gentle in cleaning my teeth. Although we have moved and it's a much longer drive to the office, I wouldn't change to another dentist.

I can honestly say that I do not dread going to the dentist for my checkups. Dr. Jay's staff is flat-out awesome! From Donna's friendly greeting as soon as you walk in the door to Joyce's kind demeanor (and gentle touch), it is truly a pleasure to visit. Dr. Jay is super friendly, thorough, and is willing to take as much time as is needed to make sure everything is A-Okay! I have had some bad experiences at other dentists' offices, and I have had some so-so experiences, but once I found Dr. Jay, I discovered what going to the dentist really SHOULD be like. All dentist offices should strive to be just like Dr. Vandewater's.

I have been a patient of Dr. Jay for over 15 years and he has done crowns on teeth and implants, filled cavities and looked out for my overall dental health. Dr. Jay and his longtime staff are cheerful, friendly, skilled and experienced and genuinely care about my dental care and health. My experience on my recent office visit is a good example of their thorough treatment. I had been experiencing no dental problems and was there for my routine checkup and cleaning. My longtime hygienist, Vicki, noticed some pocketing and bleeding in the gum around my implant that she had not found on earlier visits. She pointed out the condition to Dr. Jay who gave me a blue-dye bite test. According to Dr. Jay, there was a point sticking up from the tooth that was causing it drag the implant creating the gum problem. If untreated this could have caused further gum and bone damage which could cause the expensive implant to fail. They ground the tooth so hopefully the problem is fixed. For anyone looking for a new dentist, I strongly recommend that they go to Dr. Vandewater for their dental care. You will like Dr. Jay and his staff and they have all the latest technology in the office.

I have been coming to Jay Vandewater for 20 years. Two years ago I moved out of state and went to two different dentist in that time. I'm now going back to Jay when visiting family in St. Louis. No one else cleans, and cares for my teeth like they do. I trust Jay, I have never felt pressure to have any treatments done.
