he didnt explain anything that he was doing. my eyes were closed because I was nervous, he put the numbing cream in my mouth without telling me, jabbed my gums with a needle multiple times without any warning. then he kept completely plugging my nose with my lip so I couldnt breathe through it. when I breathed through my mouth I could taste the burning flesh and that taste still wont go away. not a good experience at all
August 13, 2018
The comments is very good!
July 27, 2018
Very knowledgeable.
July 14, 2018
The dentist seemed like he could have been nice but I was extremely uncomfortable with how he handled me. He kept pressing down on my forehead and then my whole head was in his stomach. Definitely not OK!
June 29, 2018
I was in and out in 20 mins w a tooth extraction no pain very good
June 26, 2018
I would recommend Dr Bruns to everyone I know.
June 20, 2018
very personable and compassionate dentist who seemed to care that I understood my options and about how to handle my situation
June 5, 2018
Dr. Bruns was attentive, thorough and skillful. My Tooth Extraction result has been very good.
May 30, 2018
overall, a great experience.
May 15, 2018
he only spoke to me to report things went well. no other contact
April 20, 2018
HE WAS VERY GOOD AT WHAT HE DOES.
April 6, 2018
very good I felt very comfortable
April 4, 2018
i understood i was to see dr bruns to finish cleaning(hygienist did not finish with floss or brushing) and explain what my problems with gum problems and bone loose problems. he spent 5 mins with me did not address gum problem or bone olose problem hygienist said i had
April 3, 2018
Dr. Bruns did not explain the estimate and left before telling his assistant what to put in the estimate. I dont even know the process for an implant.
February 19, 2018
The Dentist explained the steps he was taking which increased my comfort level.
February 9, 2018
Had a tooth removed. Went extremely fast and way better than anticipated. Could certainly tell the Dr wanted to get out of there (last appointment of the day) Went over what was necessary, but had his coat on and walking out the door before I was out of the room
February 5, 2018
I dont have fear now as I did in the past with dentists
January 30, 2018
The entire process was not explained to me - what he was doing & why he was doing it, no explanation as to what I should do afterward & what to expect (just a sheet of paper given to me for post care). My prescription was not written out & given to me causing me to think that it was called into pharmacy & caused me a lot of running around & extra pain & frustration.
January 12, 2018
Extraction was quick but painful. Not sure if enough time was allowed between numbing and extraction.
January 3, 2018
He had to surgically remove what was left of an eye tooth. This is never a great experience. It had to be done and he did a good job.
December 25, 2017
No problems
December 1, 2017
You guys are always very professionally personable and accommodating.
November 6, 2017
Dr. Lenarduzzi is checking with my allergist as to what options can be used for my needs.I feel he has gone above and beyond in helping my needs.
October 29, 2017
Just saw hygienist then Dr. Bruns who is outstanding just discussing matters with or working on the gums or removing teeth. Never hurt and didnt feel anything in th past.
October 29, 2017
Professional and courteous.
October 20, 2017
Really wishing he would have explained things better
October 15, 2017
Even though I had never met the man before, I felt pretty comfortable with him. He had a sense of humor that set a light tone given the procedure that was going to happen
October 10, 2017
Consultation on possible implant or bridge. He told me if there was a room full of dentists, they would recommend implant. My assistant will get you the cost information and left the room. He spent, at the most, 1 minutes with me. He doesnt give you the warm and fuzzies if you get my drift.
September 11, 2017
Excellent dentist, I travel extra miles to see and be treated by him.
September 3, 2017
I trust this dentist fully.
August 11, 2017
My experience with Dr. Bruns was exceptional, timely and a job well done. I was extremely pleased and frankly, surprised at the ease of this treatment.
July 28, 2017
treatment plan changed from two implants to one then back to two and lost two mints time for having this compleated because of this indecision
July 27, 2017
Great dentist!! Thats why I ask for him.
June 25, 2017
There is a piece of bone lodged in my gums after the extraction in Oct. Dr remedied the problem. But I had to suggest numbing & taking an x-ray. After pulling out the bone fragment, no x-ray was taken afterward.
May 28, 2017
My first experience with Dr Bruns. Very impressed with his knowledge and expertise.
April 24, 2017
dr bruns is great. he is a wonderful to your business
April 9, 2017
Dr Bruns thoroughly explained all my options.
March 4, 2017
I like Dr Bruns ,he makes you feel at ease.
February 10, 2017
the exam and visit seemed rushed. I didn't feel as if all my questions were initially answered to the point that I understood. I had to ask a lot of follow up questions for clarification. I had oral surgery and I should had been given the option to leave with pain medication and not just a prescription. took me 30 minutes to reach pharmacy and by then I was in a lot of pain.
January 24, 2017
The Dental Technician should be reminded of HIPPA
January 16, 2017
I didn't feel like my provider really went over the procedure, post-op care and expected recovery in depth.
January 3, 2017
Awesome
December 14, 2016
The dentist is wonderful & a great personality with the patient make you feel very comfortable.
October 18, 2016
Dentist told me I needed to have a tooth pulled and when I mentioned that I was surprised about that, he cut me off in conversation and told me he would review my records. He did not do that
October 18, 2016
My problems with the dentist were not as much as what he was saying but what he was not hearing me say. After the 3rd or 4th time he told me to be still, he asked me how I had had so much dental work done before. I told him (as I had said before that I had been sedated with what the doctors called "happy gas."
September 13, 2016
good
September 8, 2016
The first shot hurt of course, but so did all the rest. And it still hurt when he pulled the tooth. Should I be doing something differently when I have a tooth pulled.
August 22, 2016
Dr. Bruns is a wonderful dentist. However, on the follow-up visit (a week later after the procedure he performed), I think he would have just let me go after checking on me, without reviewing and making sure I understood what was to happen next with future work on my last upper teeth on each side. ... I had to prompt and remind him and his assistants that I still had work to be done, and, now [after his work], what was to be the SPECIFIC course of treatment I should have done with my general dentist. He was very attentive once I started asking the questions...
July 21, 2016
The dentist is wonderful & a great personality with the patient make you feel very comfortable.
May 13, 2016
Dr. Bruns always seem to be in a hurry. He's very good at what he does though.

Dr. Bruns was very good to dad he is 95 years old.
December 6, 2015
Dr. Bruns was amazing. I was in for a tooth extraction and naturally had a bit of anxiety. He immediately put me at ease with conversation of interest to me. The extraction was painless and recovery rapid. Thank you

May 28, 2015
Our deep appreciation to Dr. Bruns, Dr. Lenarduzzi and Kristin K. for their generosity, time, explanation, & direction. Each went above & beyond the call of duty to help us.
May 25, 2015
Dr. Bruns is a dentist that I trust and whose opinion I value. He is my only choice.
March 29, 2015
I came in to have a tooth pulled. The surgeon spent maybe 3 minutes. The only pain I was in was the pain he inflicted!!!. Never again with this dentist.
March 27, 2015
He looked at chart, I let him know I was in pain and he knew why when he saw the exray. I have no problem with Dr. Bruns. He has my ultimate trust for doing a great and professional job.
March 26, 2015
Very caring to my needs.
February 6, 2015
Dr. Bruns did a fantastic job in deadening my mouth for the tooth extraction.
January 28, 2015
Dr. Bruns made me feel invisible. He didn't talk with me, just at me. He didn't wait until the numbing medication took before he started working on my teeth.
January 26, 2015
I felt as if I was rushed in and out. I am attempting to get work done and was told flat out no. I felt like I was treated like a child who couldn't make my own decision.
January 14, 2015
He's gotten much better with his chairside manner!
November 30, 2014
Really like Dr Brunns
November 24, 2014
Everyone at the clinic has always been very friendly and kind.
November 8, 2014
I was seen at the scheduled time. Everyone was super nice and I was given very adequate numbing medication. Everything was explained before hand and I was asked if I had any questions. Everything went very well.
November 6, 2014
I have trust in (DDS Thomas Bruns) he has helped me in the past (great job), I think Dental Associates - do a good job for all that go there. From cleaning of teeth to all that is needed to keep a healthy mouth teeth & gums. Thank you great staff who CARES!
October 15, 2014
They did not clean my partials after my Oral Surgery.
October 10, 2014
all good

October 8, 2014
Talked too fast.
September 28, 2014
horrible experience doctor Bruns was extremely rude to me. I was nervous going into the appointment and he made it worse. I got no after care instructions for my procedure I was just sent on my way. I also got no prescription for the oral rinse.
August 29, 2014
Have been treated by Dr. Bruns before. Always professional, knowledgeable and courteous. Gets to know and recognize patients. A great credit to his profession and the clinic.

July 11, 2014
I've called Dr Brun's office several times to ask follow-up care questions and his staff do not return my calls; I went to the office in person to ask my questions only to find no one there in his dept. and one of the other receptionists who assisted me when I went in person that time provided me with a "direct" number for his office which when I dialed it, the number is not in service.
July 7, 2014
very good
July 3, 2014
The doctor ID NOT wait long enough for the anesthesia to work and I was in EXCRUCIATING PAIN.

March 4, 2014
*Dr. Bruns was very concerned about my procedure. He explained it thoroughly. He was patient and kind.
March 4, 2014
Sometimes the persons taking payment are not very friendly. Dont remember. Used this clinic for many years.
March 4, 2014
They mailed the info which I found very confusing. Because I did not have my checkbook w/me they wanted more money to pay w/credit. I insisted on seeing a manager. She would not change the process. Finally *Dr. Bruns said it was OK to mail a check.
January 14, 2014
I was satisfied overall.
October 21, 2013
On my first visit for a cleaning the dentist informed me I would need to see the gum specialist because he had some concerns the gum specialist took one look at my gums said "keep up the good work" and sent me on my way.. a waste a lunch hour
September 23, 2013
All the dentists and hygenists I have encountered have been great.
August 2, 2013
Dr. Bruns is a great physician/dentist.
July 30, 2013
dr Braun and rachael are great
July 22, 2013
The dentist was very rough, during the treatment when i was in pain and raised my hand to ask that he stop he kept going which showed me he had no regard for my comfort during the procedure.
June 21, 2013
I feel like a number, cattle to slaughter!
June 17, 2013
Dr. B was very good at explaining my options concerning my teeth.
May 9, 2013
I believe implant has exposed post. Need 2nd opinion. Not finished with treatment.
May 3, 2013
This is the first visit I had with Dental Associates, and was very pleased with my visit. Dr. Bruns was very thorough on what they are going to do, and made me feel comfortable. I'd rather travel a little farther to find a good dentist (or doctor)
February 25, 2013
No complaints.
February 11, 2013
I've found dentists at Dental Associates to be professionally courteous until you start questioning their treatment plan for you. During my very first visit, the dentists didn't want to engage in any discussion about how I felt about it
February 11, 2013
wasn't really given available options or even explained the next steps for treatment. perhaps that will come in a subsequent visit.
February 4, 2013
Great experience meeting with Thomas Bruns, DDS.
January 21, 2013
Dr. Bruns is very caring, personable and spends as much time as needed for as busy as he is.
January 14, 2013
I do not blame Dr. Bruns for this as it was not his fault. I blame the dentist who told me a bridge would be no problem, without verifying that with someone who actually did bridge work. It was a waste of my time and Dr. Bruns wasted a scheduling spot
December 21, 2012
Fair but could use more simpler terms when talking to patients.
December 10, 2012
Very thorough with his explanations.
October 26, 2012
LOVE Dr. Bruns!
October 11, 2012
I would of preferred more of a selection to choose another orthodontist & dentist for my implant. I asked for gas to relieve the discomfort from the needles & he refused to allow a gas mask.
October 3, 2012
Dr. Bruns seemed very confident & competent.
