Dr. Matthew Stunkel, DDS

Went in for what I thought was a cracked tooth but ended up needing a crown. The first numbing didn’t do well enough so the lady came back and did 3 more shots including where she did the original one. The dentist came and said he was going to put more but I advised him she had already been in and he said well I’m going to do more. So he put a gel on it too. Fast forward to after my visit 8 hours later the numbing finally started wearing off which was very weird. Woke up the next morning and the right side of my tongue was still numb. I went back in 2 weeks later for the rest of my crown and told him this. He said that was not normal. I said I know this. He said they probably got too close to my nerve. If it didn’t go away In 2 more weeks I’d need oral surgery. I got my crown put in with no pain meds. His assistants did it as well not him. It has now been 10 weeks and my tongue is still numb. I will never go back.

Beware! Had an old crown that needed to be replaced. A small cavity had developed under it. This was supposedly taken care of and a new crown put in place. Fast forward eight months-pain developed, the crown fell off and what was left of the tooth was so badly decayed that it had to be surgically removed.

Dr Stunkel is a very straight forward caring individual and a excellent dentist. He always makes me feel that he cares. His work, and the work of everyone on his staff is excellent. Thank you for all you do to take care of me.

Go somewhere else! Worst dentist I've ever had in my life. Very rude and unprofessional person. He has his assistants do his fillings for him and they screwed mine up so badly I couldn't eat right for weeks. He said it'd have to be redone and reccommended that I go elsewhere because he didn't want to take responsibility and fix it himself. He doesn't care about his patients wellbeing whatsoever. Wouldn't reccommend to anyone. His license needs to be reviewed

One crown, and two others I didn't need... I went there only a few years ago, and my crown of course failed. Turns out, my x-rays from Dr. Stunkel was grounds for getting rid of wisdom teeth, and he recommended planing the bone, forever causing me to no longer be a prophylaxis patient. As it turned out, a second opinion uncovered that at least one of the crowns were probably not needed, along with the bone planing. Thankfully, I got a 2nd opinion. I paid up. They threatened to sue me on billing

My daughter had all her teeth removed. She was extremely anxious. The staff and Dr. were very kind and made her feel at ease. It was a good experience even though it a big procedure.
