It took a phone call to know that I would love this office! And I was so right, great group! They are knowledgeable and have patience for the scaredy cats, thank you, ladies. Look forward to my return!

I'm a new patient here and I was truly impressed on every step of my appointment. They were on time, very pleasant and went above and beyond with my treatment. My wife's family has been going here for decades so they came highly recommended and lived up to it. .

I’m was so nervous going into this appointment. I’ll be honest it had been a hot minute since I’d been to the dentist due to the last experience I had. This was such a great experience! Everyone was nice and gentle and I look forward to coming back!

I just recently moved to the Northland and received a welcome letter from Marx Family Dental. My husband is family friends with the Marx family, so I figured I’d check it out. I definitely have some anxiety around the dentist due to some mixed experiences in the past with other dental offices. Everyone I interacted with was so friendly and it put me at ease. I also appreciated that the office itself wasn’t so bright white & sterile-feeling like my last few dental offices have been. It was much more comfortable and welcoming. My hygienist Natasha was amazing. She somehow even made the bite-wing x-rays seem like nothing, when they’ve always activated my gag reflex up until now. All around a great first experience with them!

I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Cox and Tyler! I have always been afraid of the dentist due to past experiences with pain, and this visit was PAIN FREE (mind you my appointment was for a crown!) Definitely recommend for anyone looking for a new dentist!

I found this dentist from a Groupon but it’s good marketing for them because they’ve earned my business as a recurring customer! The office was on time and everyone was very personable and professional. I had Rima (dental assistant), Jacqueline (hygienist) and Dr. Cox. They all did a fantastic job explaining everything and going into a high level of detail on what they were seeing/recommending and why. I only wish I’d found this team/office years earlier. Highly recommend!
