“As a physician,I know how important good dental health is but I still avoided the dentist at all costs! I had such bad dental experiences in the past that I had become a severe dental phobic. Finally it got to the point where years of dental neglect needed to be addressed so a good friend of mine suggested Dr. Reese. I reluctantly contacted his office, expecting to be chastised for my poor dental care and made to feel silly for my fear of dental pain. How wrong I was!! Dr. Reese and his staff were very understanding, supportive and genuinely concerned about my dental experiences and health. Dr. Reese formulated a plan of action that suited my individual preferences; at no time was I made to feel self-conscious about my past dental neglect. Today, after multiple dental procedures which were virtually pain-free, I am so happy and proud of my dental health and new smile. I wish I would have done this work with Dr. Reese years sooner! I have not hesitated to refer my family, friends and colleagues to him for dental care.”

“I have been with Dr. Ted Reese since he took over my original dentist business. He always is on the cutting edge of technology and his office never feels like a dentist office. With all the perks my favorite is the warm blanket. I enjoy all the staff, my dental hygienist is the greatest person I have ever had to do my teeth.
I still remember the button Dr. Ted Reese and his staff used to wear, “We cater to cowards.” That’s me, the coward.
It’s not so much the procedure, it’s the needle and maybe the noise. I don’t like needles and want nothing to do with them. It is actually a relief to know I don’t have to face the dreaded needle when I need dental work.
In 2009 I broke a tooth and needed an implant; with anyone else I would have dreaded the thought of someone drilling into my jawbone to put a screw in for a tooth. I know that Dr. Ted Reese would make sure my jawbone could handle the screw and there would be no pain. He explained everything to me and why this broken tooth had to repair with an implant. The procedure left me with no swelling, no bruising, and a screw with a tooth.
I recommend him to all my cowardly friends and acquaintances (whether they admit it or not) because I don’t think anyone should be afraid of the dentist.”

“I came to Ted Reese’s office over 8 years ago after putting off going to the dentist for quite some time. I was not a big fan of visiting a dentist and it showed.
I’m the kind of guy who grabs the arm of the dental chair so hard my fingers turn white. I used to feel sorry for the nurse that cleaned my teeth because she would have to pry my mouth open and hope I didn’t bite her fingers in the process.
To say I needed to see a dentist would be an understatement. My dental health was pretty bad. Dr. Reese and his staff were very reassuring. They didn’t lecture me on my lack of hygiene or make me feel bad about the shape I was in. I warned them that I was allergic to pain and Dr. Reese gave me options to make my visit pain free. Everyone at his office – from the receptionist to the hygienist – always meets me with a smile and asks about my family. His staff creates an environment that lets you know they not only care about your dental well being, but they genuinely care about you.
Over the years, Dr. Reese has educated me on taking good care of my teeth and how my oral hygiene affects my overall health. I did a little research before choosing Dr. Reese and found his dedication to dentistry very impressive. It’s rare to find a practitioner with his credentials. He strives to be the best in his field with continuing education and use of the latest dental technology. I had to have a crown made and Dr. Reese took the time to show me how he lays out the design on a computer then let me watch an amazing machine that takes the information he inputs and fashions a crown in a matter of minutes.
My mouth is now in great shape, thanks to Dr. Reese and his “gentle” hygienists. Now I look forward to my visits to the dentist. To date, his hygienists still have all their fingers! Not only did I find a great dentist, but I have made some really good friends in the process.”

“I grew up in an orphanage in the 50′s. Going to the dentist was for rich people and it wasn’t on the orphanage’s priority list. Needless to say, when I reached adulthood I had some of my teeth pulled. They didn’t restore or fix teeth, they pulled them and drilled without a numbing medicine sometimes. Needless to say I was scared to death to go to the dentist.
I moved to Greenwood about 13 years ago and after much nervousness I sought out a dentist. I really dreaded finding a dentist because as an adult I was really afraid of dentists and embarrassed in the shape of my teeth and I knew my stomach was going to be sick. I just knew the hygienist and dentist would be rolling their eyes or something behind me.
When my appointment came (after throwing up) I went to meet my new dentist. I saw the hygienist first and she began doing x-rays and then cleaning. Then came the Big Guy. He and his helper started reading off the numbers on each tooth and each time he missed a tooth I would sink deeper into the chair. Next came the Dr. Patient talk. I just knew he was going to try to talk me into something I couldn’t afford. Well, it wasn’t that way at all. Dr. Reese began to tell me what needed to be done starting with the immediate work and options for other work in the future when we could afford it.
Dr. Reese is kind, gentle, and didn’t make me feel ashamed or awkward. It was obvious that he was interested in me and my needs.
Over the years I have had some of the extra things done that he suggested and I have never been disappointed in his work. It has been amazing to see what he has done with what he had to work with. The total office atmosphere is clean, neat and the equipment is state-of-the-art.
I like the logo on the stationery and cards used now by Dr. Reese’s office and it is so appropriate for his office: Calming Fears…Creating Smiles. Thank you, Dr. Reese, for your service over these years.”

“I had been thinking about a tooth implant for a while and finally decided to go for it. My Mom recommended Dr.Reese. She had an implant over twenty years ago. I’m so glad I chose to go ahead & that I chose Dr. Reese. All went well and I received excellent care. Dr. Reese and his staff are great! It wasn’t painful and far easier on me than I imagined. I’m very pleased.”

“Three and a half months ago, I had my wisdom teeth removed at Indianapolis Dentistry by Dr. Ted Reese. Going into the surgery, I had full confidence in Dr. Reese’s ability to perform the surgical procedure both effectively and quickly. I was not disappointed! The procedure was very quick and painless!
Over the next few days, I took the prescribed pain relievers and kept the ice packs on (as directed by Dr. Reese and his Staff) which produced a minimal amount of swelling in my face and I was off the pain killers in only three days! The skill and professionalism from Indianapolis Dentistry gave me assurance that I would be taken care of throughout my procedure and recovery.”

“My name is Judy. I am 63 years old.
All of my life I have disliked my teeth. My teeth were not pretty…they had a large gap in the center. And because of that, I have kept my mouth closed. I’ve always been self-conscious around the camera, not wanting anyone to snap that photo that might show my teeth. My daughter has always said that I actually look ‘mad’ in photos, because I don’t smile.
Instead of ‘fixing’ a tooth when it would become a problem I would always have it pulled out instead. Over the past few years I had more bad teeth than good teeth. I started to think about having all my teeth pulled. I could then have the beautiful teeth I’ve always wanted (in denture form).
My first thought was the fear of not being able to eat foods I’ve always loved to eat. I then decided that was a silly thought. I was not going to let that stop me…I may need to eat things differently is all. What was important to me was that I wanted beautiful teeth.
That is just what Dr. Ted Reese and his staff have given to me…something I have wanted my whole life…beautiful teeth and a confident smile.
I have been so pleased with Dr. Reese and his staff. I am so glad that I chose to finally have this done. My teeth are so beautiful. Every day has been something new and exciting.
I thank God everyday for my beautiful smile. And I thank Him for introducing me to Dr. Ted Reese and his staff.
Sincerely (and with a BIG SMILE)”

“Everything about being a patient of Dr. Reese is positive. The office is easy to find, parking is literally right beside the building which is nice if it’s bad weather, the waiting room is fabulously designed and comfortable with Wi-Fi available if you need to bring your laptop to check your email or do some work. Good quality coffee!
The office staff is just exceptional – from the appointment desk to the dental hygienists, every single employee is pleasant and thoughtful. I actually feel pampered when I go there. The place just has a nice atmosphere. I highly recommend Dr. Reese for all of your dental needs. His professionalism, vast experience and expertise set him apart. No need to shop any further for a dentist. Dr. Ted Reese is the real deal.”
