I have gone to Dr. Alpers for a few years. Today I had my 3rd filling with him. He used this machine that got my tooth totally numb without a needle. He said there was a needle, but I didn't see one, and I didn't feel one. The best thing (other than no needle) was that my whole face wasn't numb for hours after. Anyway the office staff is super nice, and the dental hygienist is really nice and good. I also like that I am seen at my appointment time. Everything is so organized and efficient - like a Swiss watch. I think its a little more than other dentist, if you are busy and dont like needles hes a really good dentist.
Pros: Novocaine without needles
Cons: Co-pay in addition to my insurance.
