Staying Involved in the Sonora Community

I just started going to this office about 3 months ago and I have never felt more comfortable at any dentist I have ever gone to. I’ve had severe anxiety with anything dental related since I was very young. From the front office staff, to the techs, to Dr DeFont himself, they are all so wonderful. If you’re looking for a dental practice that is honest, kind, gentle and has your best interest in mind don’t go anywhere else. I am so grateful for them, they have given me the confidence to smile again and the piece of mind that my health is better for it! A big THANK YOU to everyone in that office, they have been a life changer!

"Today I had the pleasure of meeting Dr. DeFont and his staff. My sister receives her dental care here and said they are WONDERFUL! I totally agree! Lindsey performed the new patient exam, X-rays and did a wonderful and thorough, pain free cleaning. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Dr. DeFont who explains everything so well you actually completely understand his dental plan for each patient and how to keep your teeth well taken care of. Friendly, competent, outstanding service. Tell them Charlotte B. recommended you!"
