When I was younger, I wanted to go into something with the sciences, but I wasn’t really sure. My community had a dentist that I was a patient in their practice, and he loved his job. He loved everything about his work, so I spent a summer working in his practice, and I loved it.
I fell in love with it. His patients loved him, and he loved his patients, so it made me want to do dentistry, so that’s how I got here. So the most rewarding part for me in dentistry is patient care, so I love the opportunity to be able to help a patient to move through whatever fears or anxieties they have, and be happy about their smile at the end, the way their teeth look, and more importantly, the way they feel about the work that’s been done to them, that they’ve received ultimate care, and they feel as if this is a second home for them when it comes to taking care of their health, so that for me is the icing on the cake.

I’ve been a patient at Guilford Hills Dental Care for many, many years and I can honestly say that I have never had a bad experience. Going to the dentist is not really something that is on the top of my list of things I like to do, however, the staff is very friendly and professionally and they have a way to make you feel relaxed and comfortable. If you are in need of dental care, or you just don’t like to go, find your way to Guilford Hills Dental Care. They will take care of you.

The staff were great. Very welcoming and friendly. Dr. Sargent was extremely thorough and takes a personalized approach by putting her patients first. She made me feel so comfortable and took much of her time to do a thorough examination, like I had never experienced before. Then clearly explained what she saw, made recommendations, and answered all of my questions. I would highly recommend this practice!
