Nissa Baxter As embarrassing as it is, at the ripe old age of 36, I am still afraid of the dentist. The sounds, smells, exam rooms, tools, hell even the lead vest, every aspect of it is paralyzing for me. I have to get exams and cleanings with laughing gas. I was refereed to Dr. Matta and his team from my Oral Surgeon, he came with glowing reviews. Even so, I was very reluctant. When I tell you he did not disappoint, he did not disappoint. After my jaw surgery l needed to completely redo all my dental work. As you can imagine, for someone like me, this was a nightmare. Extractions, implants, root canals, fillings, crowns, I had to have it all done. It meant visit after visit, months of work, my anxiety and fears were at an all time high. Dr. Matta and his staff emotionally, mentally, and financially worked through all my needs with me. They made me comfortable, they talked me through everything, explained every step, I never felt judged or ridiculous for my irrational fears, they literally held my hand. They offer such a warm, inviting, and soothing environment. I have free dental through my insurance and I pay out of pocket to come and see Dr. Matta and his staff, they are that good! They undid years of built up fears and trauma, that I had stored up from previous dental experiences.
I’m proud to say I’ve had several visits now with no laughing gas! To some that’s not a big deal, but to me it speaks volumes to their level of care and passion for their work. I owe them everything.
Make the call, It’s worth the consult

Jacqueline Ostendorf Okay I’m the patient every dentist dreads, I’m not just anxious and scared I have a full blown phobia. I just relocated to Spokane after an extended illness which meant I hadn’t seen a regular DDS for over 4 years. I tried several dentists here in town and although I’m sure they are all very professional it just wasn’t a good fit for me. I even visited a sedative Denistry office and they recommended Dr Matta.
I cannot put into words how it feels to walk into his office it’s like a warm hug from both him and his staff. I’ve never encountered such genuine caring and professionalism for both my emotional as well as my dental needs. I’ve finally found my family dentist and what a relief. I can’t say my fear is totally gone, but with the help of Dr Matta and his terrific staff I’m on the right road.
Thank you Dr Matta and Staff
