Natalie was super amazing and Dr. Carroll was super professional and took amazing care of me and my teeth during my wisdom teeth removal!

I highly HIGHLY recommend Dr Carroll and his team. I’ve seen them a few times now, and complained about sensitivity on some of my teeth. Dr Carroll recommended that I have new enamel put on some of my teeth to alleviate the sensitivity. I was a little hesitant and honestly very nervous for the procedure as I have a lot of medical anxiety. Dr Carroll and his team went above and beyond to make sure I was calm, taken care of, and reassured during the whole process. They talked me through my fears and I really felt very comfortable in their care. I highly recommend this team to anyone in the area looking for a very caring and knowledgeable dental care team.

The staff are always courteous and polite and Dr. Carroll does a great job. I like being able to get everything done the same day, not having to go back to have the crown done another day. Thank you Yuma Smiles for taking care of my issues! I recommend Yuma Smiles.

Dr. Carroll and Natalie are absolutely awesome!! They make you feel welcome from the minute you step into the office. I currently have braces and met with Dr. Carroll to look at my front crown. They coordinated with my orthodontist to make my crown smaller so we can finish closing the gaps in my teeth. Once my braces are off I will be going back to get a whole new crown. They do great work, I definitely recommend them!

I'm new to Yuma so I read a lot of reviews before deciding on who to make an initial appointment with. The reviews were on point! Dr. Carroll and Natalie went above and beyond to get me into the office same day. I don't know what they sacrificed in their day for me, but my smile looks amazing. Dr. Carroll's touch is so gentle - I didn't even know he did numbing injections because I didn't feel a thing until I was numb. Their bedside manner is also very pleasant. I will certainly be keeping follow up appointments with them! They're worth it!

I am terrified of going to the Dentist but after a small accident I needed to get a crown. I found Dr. Carroll through online reviews and went in. Natalie was amazing when I explained my anxiety and fears to her regarding an experience I had in Algadones. Dr. Carroll and Natalie are THE BEST they walked me through and made sure I was ok through the entire process. Now I feel silly for crying 😆 My smile is back and I will even be adding dental insurance at work to keep up with our cleanings. Will definitely be back. I am very happy with my crown, it looks so real!! THANK YOU!

Absolutely fantastic! Natalie went above and beyond to assist me. Dr Carroll and the whole staff made me feel like family and helped me with my apprehension about the procedures I needed. I had no pain. They worked with me to get all I needed with minimal time off from work needed. And they do crowns onsite so everything is done in one visit. Thank you!!!!

After first going to MX and having a mediocre teeth cleaning, plus being told that I had 6 cavities without ever taking xrays, I called Yuma Smiles. They did complete digital full mouth xrays and the BEST teeth cleaning I’ve had in years! State of the art office and CLEAN! Natalie and Shanel are excellent as is Dr Carroll. Highly recommend these people. AND.. it turns out, I actually had NO cavities! Thank you all!

NEVER IN MY LIFE HAVE I HAD A BETTER DENTIST!!!! Before I moved to Yuma I was TERRIFIED of the dentist... but after meeting Dr.Carroll and his staff I am no longer afraid. The staff warmly greet you everytime you go in. Dr. Carroll is very gentle and will explain everything he is doing. I told the staff I was scared of needles and before they did anything involving a needle they told me what was going on and talk me through it or put a towel over my eyes to make sure I didnt see it. They are so sweet they called me (after I had 2 teeth pulled) to see how I was feeling. I am very happy with my experience here and will be a patient if his for as long as he is around.

I have been seeing Dr. Carroll since Dr. Clark retired. I have found Dr. Carroll to be very knowledgeable , personable and caring for his patients. I love his perfectionlism and his bed side manner. His state of the art equipment is impressive. I had to have my front tooth fixed , matched for whiteness and he went above and beyond to create it and make sure I was satisfied and that he was happy with the result as well , he truly cares. His staff, Claudia, Natalie and Shanell are the best and very professional and knowledgeable.They always treat me with respect and make me very comfortable.It's their personal touch and professionalism that keep me coming back with a smile. I would highly recommend Dr Carroll as a Dentist and his Staff to anybody looking für a new Dentist. My highest recommendation and regards to the entire office. Sincerely and Thank you, MeLa'nie Visintainer

I have always had a great visit with Sam. He and the staff always make me feel at home and comfortable. I will always go to them for any dental work!

Amazing service! I was scheduled for a Friday (which is typically only an admin day) to be seen for a retainer casting. My schedule at work is restrictive and I let Natalie know that I wouldn't be able to pick the final product up for a couple of months due to my work schedule. She went above and beyond to hand deliver my retainer to me the same day it was casted with no extra charge!! You can't say that about many businesses, thanks so much Yuma Smiles, and a special thanks to Natalie.

I had such a wonderful experiance at this office! Switching from another local dentist was the best decision I ever made. Shanel, the hygienist, was absolutely amazing and Dr. Carroll was incredibly down to earth and attentive to any questions or concerns. The whole staff is just awesome and I can't recommend this office enough!

Dr. Carroll has state-of-the-art equipment and can do it all. I was able to get my new crown replaced on the same day with only the one visit. I've been going there for years and never had to wait past my appointment time. The office staff are all friendly, helpful, efficient, prompt, and make you feel at home and more importantly, comfortable. Dr. Carroll remembers details from prior visits and always follows up on them. A real bonus for me is that he has a way with giving the shots to numb your mouth without it hurting! I'm very grateful for the excellent care I get from Dr. Carroll and his staff.

I have had an excellent experience with Dr. Carroll over the past -I have been with him since he started practice in Yuma. He and his staff have always treated me professionally and respectfully. I say 'had' because I just moved out of state and now I hope to find a new dentist as skilled as Dr. Carroll. My last visit was a highlight for me. He gave me a brand new, much improved smile by replacing my top front six teeth with crowns made by him on site. The change is amazing and I say "thank you Dr. Carroll!"

I was terrified of the dentist from past bad experience. My daughter had a traumatic experience at a local dentist as well. We have both started seeing Dr. Carroll and have had the most comfortable, reassuring experience. They are kind, knowledgeable and patient!! Thank you Dr. Carroll and Staff!! Second visit - 2/4/16 - Deep Clean Procedure and a Wisdom tooth extraction - Again, I can't say enough about my visit. The staff from the moment you walk in the door are professional and friendly. My procedure was 99.5% pain free and the extraction was 100% pain free. I was given information every step of the way and was made to feel comfortable at all times. This is an office with compassion, caring and understanding. I highly recommend this practice. I can't say thank you enough for the positive experience and dental work. Thank you!!

Since my wife and I have been visiting Dr Carroll, our dental health has improved significantly. We are no longer hesitant to "visit the dentist" because Dr Carroll and his staff provide professional and pain-free dental care. He always provides dental check-ups using cutting-edge technology, and never pressures us to have dental work done without thoroughly discussing all available options. He also clearly indicates the costs associated with all options. I like that. The dental hygienists are top notch, and the office staff are courteous and very helpful. I have recommended Dr. Carroll and his staff to all my friends and family.

I was new patient at Dr. Carroll's office and I was treated like a member of his family. His staff got me in super fast. I was given a clear and concise dental plan, with a precise timetable and price quote that didn't destroy our budget. He is a great guy to work with a good sense of humor. His staff is very knowledgeable and pleasant. Have recommended several friends and family members to his care. He crafted a denture for me that fits great. His personal attention to aftercare is commendable.

I had such a great experience with 32nd Street Dental Care! Dr. Carroll is excellent, and the entire staff is very helpful! The office has a cheerful atmosphere and the customer service is fantastic. I had to get a tooth extracted, and a fake tooth made to take its place. Both procedures were virtually painless, and the new tooth was made right there in the office! I got to watch my tooth being made, and it only tooth about 20-30 minutes! It was amazing, and it fit perfectly! I really appreciate Dr. Carroll's attention to detail, and the fact that he took the time to call me personally a day or so after each procedure to make sure everything was going the way we expected (and it was). I also want to say that Natalie, Dr. Carroll's assistant, is absolutely wonderful! She's extremely accommodating, and my teeth always feel great after I go in for my cleanings. :) I would definitely recommend 32nd Street Dental Care. They do an amazing job!

As someone who has frequented the dental chair in the past, I am both relieved and impressed with the team at Dr. Carroll's office. Both Natalie and Claudia in the front office are friendly and courteous. Jill made me feel incredibly comfortable during my cleaning. She is personable and very professional, providing advice on gum health while being gentle with my bleeding gums :) Dr. Carroll was incredibly professional and personable. He provided a quick, yet thorough exam and made sure to explain everything I needed to know about my teeth, what work would need to be done to correct existing issues, and how to prevent further tooth decay.My experience with this team was outstanding. I felt comfortable and relaxed from the moment I walked in the door. I will absolutely refer in the future!

Dr. Carroll and his staff are the best. I've been going to this office for years, and it was a great and easy transition from Dr. Clark to Dr. Carroll :-) My children love going to the Dentist and enjoy themselves while they're there. The ladies in the office are awesome. Claudia has been there for years, and is very nice and welcoming. It's a great place if you want a personal and thorough experience instead of let's hurry up and see as many people at once kind of experience :-)
