Extremely knowledgeable doctor and a wonderful caring staffPosted on Google Articus KeyesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I struggled with hygiene for a long time due to depression and mental health, and had a rotten tooth that began causing pain. I reached out to this dentist, explaining that I had a crippling fear of them from a past experience, and that I needed help. This staff was the kindest, most helpful people to be in dentistry. If you are scared of dentists and struggle with them, this place is amazing to help. I appreciate the staff and their incredible hospitality!

Good coffee and feels amazing in herePosted on Google Carissa KnutsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I cannot say enough good things about this place! I was in Billings from out of town and called them to get 2 fillings replaced that had fallen out. They quickly squeezed me in. They didnt have enough time to fix them at that time, so we scheduled for a later date next month. An hour or 2 later, they called me and squeezed me in for the 2nd time that day and fixed me right up. You cant even tell my fillings are there. The next day they even called to follow up make sure everything was feeling okay! The whole staff was welcoming and friendly and I wpuld definitely recommend this place to everyone! Thanks for giving me the best dental experience Ive ever had!Posted on Google Frankie Ybarra JrTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very satisfied.

Sedation Benefits
Sedation dentistry removes one of the biggest barriers to getting the care you need: fear. With nitrous oxide, oral sedation, or IV sedation available, Dr. Bollinger can tailor your visit to whatever level of relaxation feels right for you. Beyond easing anxiety, sedation also allows more complex procedures to be completed in fewer visits, since patients are typically more comfortable staying in the chair for longer stretches. Our Billings team carefully evaluates your health history before recommending any sedation option, so you can feel confident that your visit will be both safe and calm from start to finish.
Sedation Visit Journey
Your sedation experience starts with a conversation about your anxiety level, medical history, and the treatment you need, so Dr. Bollinger can recommend the right option for you. On the day of your visit, your chosen sedation method is administered, whether that is breathing in nitrous oxide, taking an oral sedative beforehand, or receiving IV sedation from a trained team member. Throughout your procedure, our team monitors your comfort and safety closely. Afterward, you will need a few hours to recover from oral or IV sedation, so plan for a ride home and a relaxed rest of your day.
