"My husband was need of an emergency wisdom tooth extraction because the tooth had cracked and the pain was off the scale. Because oral surgeons only come to the island every so often he was going to have to wait over a week for relief. We reached out to Keys Dental Specialists and they were able to accommodate him the next day. They moved mountains to make time for him to relieve his pain. Their office is clean, organized, modern and the entire staff was compassionate and knowledgeable. "

"Not only did they manage to squeeze me in the same day I called to see if they took my insurance, but they made what could have have been a miserable experience into an enjoyable one. I also appreciated how much time they took to explain what was happening inside my mouth. I look forward to getting my teeth cleaned next week!"
