One of my last teeth has been hurting off and on for a couple of weeks while I was out of town for work. I'm a truck driver. Waited all day Friday for someone to call me back. So I got home Monday and called office again and to my surprise I got a limited appt to evaluate my situation. Cost for the visit and 1 xray was $121. Was told they may be able to get me in on the 31st for 2 extractions and was given quotes for replacement of the 2 teeth in my partial. Everyone was very nice and easy to understand. So I upgraded my review read less

Dentist did great work. Had a chipped tooth and they were able to get me right in on short notice. Will go back to them again!! Fairly new to the area and tried another dentist and didn't have a good experience. I'm glad to now have a dentist i'm comfortable with. read less

Monday 2/22/2022 they showed me just how amazing they can be. My fiancé went to have the LEFT side of his face evaluated for jaw pain around 4:00pm at Valley Park Dental Group. He walked out with a failed wisdom tooth extraction on his RIGHT side and said he would be fine to go to work around 6:00pm. They gave him a referral to Dr. Reti at Southwest Oral Surgery and told him to schedule when he had time. Once the localized anesthesia shot wore off he was in the worst pain. The prescription for Tylenol #3 didn’t even begin to touch it. I called several times to the office and eventually had to call the after hours number since they never picked up before they closed. I STILL haven’t received a call back from Valley Park Dental Group 2 DAYS later. Out of pure desperation I called Forum Dental- Ballwin the office was closed but Dr. Olvera has the machine set up directly to her cell phone and she picked up on the first ring. I know she didn’t get the whole story out of me on the phone. I was extremely panicked and told her basically “I have no idea what to do. Please help!” She met us in 30 minutes at the office and had him joking around in 40 minutes. Took care of everything and sent us home with the appropriate medicine and aftercare. She’s followed up via phone call and texts multiple times checking on him. She even reached out to Valley Park Dental Group to touch base about the continuing of care for their patient. Like I said they still haven’t reached out to us two days later.

I’m beyond grateful to Dr. Olvera for everything she did. Don’t hesitate to see her. She’s amazing! read less

Dr. Atchison was amazing, he gave me a very thorough checkup and fixed a mess up with a filling from a previous dentist that I didn’t realize I even had an issue until a few days later! What an amazing relief! Thanks doc!! Can’t wait to come back. read less

I am not always the greatest at taking care of my teeth but there is no judgment only teaching. The Dentist Dr J. who was not friendly is no longer there and has been replaced by an amazingly friendly dentist that fits the personality of the rest of the team there. We moved away to Forsyth but my wife and I still drive up to Ozark just to go to this team. read less

As an older person I have more needs than the average patient. Most recently my dentist has been Dr. Kim. I am impressed with his knowledge and his explanation of how dental problems occur. At his suggestion, I tried a new kind of partial to replace my uncomfortable and ancient metal partial. My new partial fits perfectly and is extremely comfortable.I give Dr. Kim an A+ for his concern, his knowledge, and his expertise! Highly recommend… read less

For the first and only time in my life I didn't feel the needle poke for the numbing process(which is usually the worst part for me). Everything has been smooth and easy. From getting my other dental records, to the procedures themselves, all the way to billing and payment. I would highly recommend to anyone in need of dental work. read less

It's not just because the associates are so positive and supportive; they act as if you're the most important patient they are dealing with.

They have really done outstanding work, particularly the Dr. I've had lots of work done on my teeth, lots of poor experiences. However, I have never really experienced discomfort or pain. That shows me how skilled the Dr. truly is.

I really appreciate Forum Dental and it's entire staff. They have also done a fabulous job working with the VA while managing my care. Best dentistry bar none. read less

Dr. Kim is a great dentist. Takes time to explain procedures. Hygienists nice and very proficient. Clean. This will be my new dentist.

The staff was intelligent, understanding, and benevolent.

I was greatly impressed with Dr. Johnsen, specifically, being very sympathetic, involved, and determined to have all my concerns addressed and needs met. His advice and recommendations were invaluable.

There is a lengthy dental treatment ahead, awaiting me in this clinic. However, in Dr. Johnsen’s hands, I am certain, there is nothing for me to worry about. read less

By far the best experience I’ve ever had at a dentist. For the first time I felt like they were trying to help me understand what was going on during the entire appointment and actually talk through everything with me instead of just quickly relaying info to each other (as I’ve had it done in the past) Big fan of this current staff! read less

Dr. Beam performed a root canal on one of my bottom back teeth, and I was pleasantly surprised at how painless the entire experience was. Both the Dr and assistant were very kind and professional (and the entire staff!!), and they really helped to ease my nerves and helped me to feel comfortable. I have had two root canals done in the past (plus one retreat root canal), and they were not easy appointments to get through, so I was expecting this appointment to be difficult as well. Surprisingly, it was a very positive experience and I have zero complaints...it feels AMAZING to finally be out of pain. :). Thanks Dr. Beam and Forum staff!!!! read less

Very friendly and transparent about interventions needed and costs. Also the only dentist I've been to that causes NO pain during cleanings. I highly recommend.
