🦷✨ From Fear to Gratitude: A 67-Year Journey ✨🦷

I’ve been afraid of dentists since before I could walk. That deep, bone-level dread—the kind that keeps you up the night before an appointment—has been with me since childhood.

But today, I want to share something extraordinary: I am no longer afraid! 💖

Thanks to Dr. Thogode, his incredible support staff 💪🩵, and especially the tremendous receptionist Theresa 🌟💐, that lifelong fear has finally been replaced with trust, calm, and even—dare I say it—comfort. Their gentle approach 🫶, patience 🕊️, and genuine kindness 🥰 have completely transformed how I feel about dental care.

At 67, I never thought I’d say this: I actually look forward to my visits. 😌🪥

If you’ve ever carried a fear for decades, you know how monumental this is. And if you’re still carrying that fear—I see you. 👀💙 And I promise, the right care can change everything. 🌈

Thank you, Dr. Thogode, Theresa, and team, for giving me back my peace of mind. You didn’t just fix my teeth—you healed something much deeper. 🙏🦷💫

From the moment you step into Thogode family dental you’re treated with a welcoming smile and professionalism from the receptionist. The office itself is bright and clean with views of nature, which makes it extremely calming when you’re having dental work done. Dr. Thogode is an extremely knowledgeable and professional dentist, his sense of humor puts you at ease, which makes the experience so much easier. I highly recommend this establishment for all your dental needs.

let me first say, i'm terrified of the dentist. for many reasons. Dr. Cody and her assistant, put me right at ease, hardly felt the Novocain shot, i have a fear of judgement, pain. can honestly say, hardly felt the shot, except for what was in my head. the pain afterwards in normal, and expected. Can't say enough good things about her and staff. they are 40 min away, and other dental places are closer, but I'd drive 2 hours to get here. Office is very nice and pleasing, relaxing, it's nice to find a non judgmental place that helps you. Thank you to Dr Cody and Staff.

Let me begin by saying I was horrified of going to the dentist, PRIOR to meeting Dr. Thogode. With him, you don’t even feel the Novocain shots. I told him he should hold seminars to teach dentists his technique. And he is all about the patients well being and not just another money hungry doctor worried about his pocket. You can talk to him and he actually listens to you, and tells you everything that can possibly be done, and allows you to make the choice that best fits your needs.
The office staff is also amazing, attentive and caring.
You want the whole package for your families dental needs, this is the place! 5⭐️

I can’t say enough wonderful things about the team at Thogode Family Dental. The front office staff, hygienists, and doctors are all incredibly accommodating, responsive, and patient. I recently had my first crown done, and Dr. Thogode made the entire process so comfortable. I also brought my little one for his first-ever dental visit, and they fit him in right away. Dr. Cody and Liz were thorough, patient, and kind, making his experience positive and stress-free. The awesome lady at the front desk is an absolute sweetheart and has been so kind during every visit. Five stars all around—thank you, Thogode Family Dental!
