Southern Indiana Smiles

The people were very niceDown to EarthThe experience was great!!!They were very thorough and took great care in helping me with my problems not rushing meGave great advice on what needed to be done to help me keep my teeth Best experience I’ve ever had at a Dentist office

More aptly names Southern Indiana Frowns. We reported new insurance for 2024 and were told that, while normally not accepted, they would grandfather us in since we were already a patient of theirs. Then, the day before our appointment, they called to say that, just kidding, they won't accept that insurance after all. I said they already told us they would, and she said they changed their mind. It also made no sense to me, as we had had Dentaquest through Caresource, and now we had Dentaquest through HiP. Why would they accept one and not the other?Prior to this, I had another poor experience with them when making our first appointment there. They left a message on a Friday afternoon, saying we had to call back within 24 hours to confirm our appointment. Well, we I called back, they were closed and were closed all weekend, so I was unable to confirm. I called first thing Monday morning and they said it was too late and we'd have to reschedule. I explained the situation and fortunately they did allow us to keep the appointment.Clearly they are a disorganized and poorly managed facility.

This was my first visit to this dentist office and it was amazing! Everyone I encountered was great! Scheduling was a breeze, my husband was a new patient as well and he was able to get in within a few weeks of us calling. My dental hygienist was amazing and so knowledgeable. She made my time at the dentist office (which is usually not fun) very much enjoyable and took her time with me. She answered all my questions and was very informative about how I should change my routine. I absolutely loved her and hope to see her at my next visit. The dentist himself was such a great guy. He was funny, nice, and my husband loved him as well. I felt like I was really taken care of there. I’m so glad we found Southern Indiana Smiles and would definitely recommend them to anyone who needs a dentist.-Amy and Dakota Kizer

I cannot say enough about how great Stef at the front desk and Dr. Jordan Gardner are! I needed pre-auths from insurance for the procedures. I had a military deployment scheduled in 4 weeks. Stef spent hours and hours pulling together paperwork, submitting the request, answer requests for more information, calling my insurance to discuss, and much more. She was amazing! Dr. Gardner made sure she had time in her schedule to get 4 of my teeth fixed the 2 days before I deployed. If it wasn't for Stef's tireless efforts and Dr. Gardner's wonderful work, I would have missed my departure date. My teeth feel great! I am forever grateful for their efforts! They lowered my stress in an already stressful period! I will be returning to Bloomington Smiles when I return from overseas. Thanks again Stef and Dr. Gardner! You are appreciated! -Ann

My first visit. IF you are someone needing emotional support for dental work this place will be supportive! I changed from my last DDS due to insurance changes and the last DDS had retired. My dental hygienist and chair side assistant were compassionate and provided great care. The Dentist was relatable and good at his job. Located on the west side by the Wings Etc location. Easy scheduling. Front office staffed a bit stressed as usual… lol… yet provided what I required. I’d recommend this dental business. I know this place is in search of a new dentist and the current dentist is a temp. Too bad because I did appreciate their mannerism and workplace vibe. Good luck and hope this helps relieve dental anxieties!!

I cannot speak highly enough of this doctor and her staff. I love the camaraderie among the staff and with the doctor. I have an anxiety disorder and it makes dental work hard for me, but the staff alleviated my fear by completely explaining the process and being patient with me. I got to witness a happy dance by the doctor and was serenated the whole time by happy staff people singing along to the great music playing through the speakers. I know they like each other in that office because they hang out after work together. I know this because they were talking about it when they were working on my teeth. It made me feel like they trust each other which also eases my out of control anxiety. I feel like I have a clear plan of action around some of the dental issues that I’ve been having. I haven’t had a dentist to actually listen to me in more years than I can count. One added bonus is HGTV was turned on in my room and the lobby and I could not be happier….. well, maybe if I had not needed a crown I would be a little happier! 11/10 I highly recommend this office. Great people.

One of the easier cleanings I've had! I'm not a fan of going to the dentist and the dental assistant was quick, thorough, and painless for me, which I really appreciated. The new doctor (Dr. Frye?) was very nice and chose to watch my older fillings instead of just preemptively wanting to replace them. I really appreciate a minimally invasive dental experience! Being the dentophobe I am, I'd say this is one of the best dental experiences I've had aside from being completely sedated.

This is the best dental office I have ever been to! Dr. Hunt is an amazing dentist and all the dental assistants have been fantastic too! I have had exams, cleanings, fillings, crowns and am now awaiting retainers. The work they do is top notch. My crowns are gorgeous and it’s like having brand new teeth! When I had issues with my temporary crowns causing me pain, the office was quick to respond and get me non narcotic meds that worked wonderfully. I’ve never had to wait more than 10 minutes past my appointment time to be seen, and sometimes have even gotten in earlier because they are highly efficient workers here. I am impressed how in sync everyone is, and they are all friendly, lively, and fun while they work! I have never ran into any issues with billing here either. They helped me maximize my dental benefits and understood my plan coverage well. I have already recommended them to others, and will continue to do so! My thanks to all the staff for a job well done! :)

What wonderful service I experienced. They were attentive and welcoming from the moment I walked in to the moment I left. They made sure I was comfortable at all times and explained what to expect as they went along. Staff interacted pleasantly with each other. It appeared very well organized and all went smoothly.Taylor (hygienist) and Dr. Hunt were wonderful- very thorough and professional. I highly recommend.

Absolutely lovely office. Clean and comfortable. Everyone I interacted with was kind, smart, and professional. They used impressive tech, explained what they were doing at every step, and honestly made the visit fun.Would definitely recommend
