Patient Testimonials

WOW! I CAN SMILE AGAIN! What a pleasure it is to look in the mirror at my teeth. It’s been 4 years since I went to a dentist. Fear was my excuse. Finally, I was forced to seek dental attention as I had a broken molar and an infection in my gums. Thank goodness the “Dental Gods” steered me toward the Citracado Dental Group. Dr. Jungman (who pulled my tooth) and Dr. Kangas, who is now working on the rest of my teeth, are a great team. Gentle, kind and very understanding. All of the staff at Citracado is super. They make you feel like you’re at a day spa instead of the dreaded dentist’s office. My hats off to all of you. If you can make me comfortable, you’re all miracle workers. Thanks so much for your patience and kindness.

Thank you so much for such a lovely gift. I look forward to a relaxing massage at Bellissima upon returning from my trip. I also want to thank each of you for your excellent professional care and services that you render in such a way to make it feel so personalized. You are all just the best! My special gratitude to Dr. Kangas and Susan for the great results of the many painless hours we spent together. I shall think of each of you everytime I brush.

In the first part of September of 2006, Dr. Jungman and all the staff involved, gave me something I had not seen for over 10 years—my smile. My childhood of traumatic dental care had kept me from seeing a dentist regularly even as an adult. Little by little, my smile disappeared. It became embarrassing to smile with friends, in photos, and even with my own family. I just wanted to blend in and not be seen.

Everyone at Citracado Dental was so patient and wonderful through the whole process of helping me have a healthier mouth. From the time you step foot in the front door, you know that you are in good hands and they truly care about your dental health and well-being. You will never find this type of professional care anywhere else.

When someone asks me what dentist I go to, I smile a Big Smile and say, ‘I go to Citracado Dental. They changed my life!’

I am extremely thankful that Mary referred me to you. The quality of service that I have received from you and your staff has been exceptional! My whole life, I have been fearful of the dentist. You and your staff have dramatically changed my view of the dentist. I feel at ease the moment I walk into your office until I leave. I have to congratulate you on your excellent, sensitive, friendly, and professional service.

I have been going to Citracado Dental for about 11 years and haven’t even considered looking anywhere else. Your staff is so helpful, pleasant, and professional. Dr. Kangas did a ‘flawless’ job on my veneers. Her precision work, attention to detail, and extra-special TLC make all the difference in the world. I love my dental office!
~John Batchie
I just have to let you know how sincerely grateful I am for the smile you gave my daughter. I have never seen her smile so much, and I am convinced it is because Dr. Layus’s fine dentistry. Thank you for changing her life.

Dear Citracado Staff, Thank You! From the moment I called to make an appointment to when I leave the office, everyone there goes beyond the call of duty. You are all GREAT.
~Johanna Frias
It was eleven years ago that my wife and I heard of Citracado Dental Group. Dr Kangas has taken care of our dental needs over these past years in a very personal manner. She always explained the treatment we were to receive in a very professional plan. In addition to expert care Dr. Kangas has provided a staff of well-trained dental technicians.

We have referred our friends to Dr. Kangas for the very reason we selected her dental group. Customized treatment, all procedures explanied and reasonable fees. Everyone at the office makes you feel you’re the most important person that comes through the door.

Just a note of thanks for the great job you do serving me as a patient. It’s not just how well you take care of my teeth, but the care you take to ensure my comfort and continued dental health, as well as treating me as a valued patient rather than just a number. God bless you.
~Bob Romano
Thank you so much for my well-fitting denture Dr. Jungman! It is so much better than the first time I got it a few years ago. I’m thanking the Lord I’m able to chew again!
~Thelma Svelmoe
I had been told that progress had been made in the dental field that helps make dental visits for apprehensive folks like me more bearable, but I have a hard time believing that anybody could hold a candle to you. I don’t know how you do what you do, but you do it real good.
~Trish Peterson
Many of us take our own teeth for granted. I know I did and as I approached my senior years, I realized how life altering it would be if I lost my teeth. That is why I came to you for help. You and your wonderful staff were so patient with me and calmed my fears. Education and active listening are the key issues to change. Your efforts are being appreciated.
~Bobbie Wittmann
Citracado Dental Group is my choice! During my 91+ years of going to many dentists and clinics, I find those at Citracado, though always being professional, to be friendly, cheerful, and caring. They are willing to go the extra mile to make a patient’s dental experience a pleasant one. I feel confident and relaxed as I am treated more as a friend than a patient.
~Ruth Wood
I will never forget being told in my mid-twenties that the only treatment for my root recession and periodontal disease was to pull all my teeth and get implants. Fortunately for me, my husband steered me to Citracado Dental. I am now forty-one and Dr. Kangas and her compassionate and cutting-edge team associates have conserved all but two of my teeth. It is not a miracle, it is good, hard work achieved by me, and a talented group of professionals.
