What Our Patients Have To Say

  • "I used to dread going to the dentist. Partly because of childhood trauma and partly because of the unknown. The team at Hood Dental really put me at ease and gave me the knowledge to understand what having good dental hygiene and teeth meant for not only my mouth, but my body. I had a deep cleaning done and they were accommodating and helpful when scheduling and working on me. Lindsey the hygienist has been super helpful and caring during the whole process. Even when you trip up and aren’t quite where you need to be, they make sure to remind you in a polite, encouraging way. Highly recommend and will continue to use Hood Dental for both my and my families needs."

  • "I had to get a crown recently and just want to give a shout-out to Desiree and Dr. Alexander for making it the best experience possible! I was super nervous for no particular reason. By the time my appointment was over, I was laughing & joking with them and had a nice new crown. They made sure I was comfortable and pain free throughout the entire procedure. I’m not exaggerating when I say the entire staff is amazing. They are truly next level when it comes to their systems and customer care. If you’re thinking about going to Hood Dental Care, do it!"

  • "Everyone was Very nice and took their time with me, making sure I was comfortable throughout the process of pulling my front tooth & doing a bone graft prior to implanting a post for an implant. I had a crown which had broken off even with the gum line. Dr. Alexander is great & did a fantastic job & his assistant, Marleigh was so kind, patient & efficient with me. I couldn’t ask for better, kinder dentistry. I highly recommend them."

  • "Wonderful people and GREAT service. Every tooth emergency I’ve ever had, they took care of me. A mild toothache one morning turning into a major toothache by lunchtime I called their responses was “can you come in now”? I lost a temporary crown and they told me to come in the very day I call them about it! Crowns, root canals, a permanent bridge, were all done painlessly and with great skill. Thanks Hood Dental."

Dr. Tatum was amazing and Raven was absolutely the best hygenist Ive ever had."

I went in for a routine cleaning when they noticed I had a badly infected tooth that needed to be extracted from where else MY BOTTOM JAW 😩 Can I tell you anxiety through the roof.

    - Andrew Thornton
  • "last year i had 4 teeth pulled here- it was a breeze.. i expected to be out of work but they did such a good job i had no pain. I got 3 wisdom teeth pulled here- I was very scared because of all the horror stories you hear about RECOVERING from the surgery. Well it was an absolute breeze, i felt NO pain after the procedure or in the following days after, the swelling was minimal because the doctors took their time in the procedure so everything was just super awesome!!! Thank you all so much for helping with my fear of the Dentist office!"

  • "Dr. Hood and his staff are great. From the minute you walk in the front door everyone is very friendly and approachable. I’ve had to return a couple of times for adjustments and each time I have been pleased with the care and concern for getting the perfect fit and making sure my needs were met. First class operation all around! I wouldn’t go anywhere else!"
    - Jeff Lilley
  • "I was apprehensive about going because I had not been to a dentist in quite some time!! However the entire staff was super nice!! Very informative and they explain everything and give you several options to choose from. They had a $99 new patient special and that's what got me in there, so glad I did! I will continue to use Hood Dental Care for my future needs!!!!"

  • "So I am normally very afraid of dentist but Dr. Lahasky and her assistants Brooke and Jess made this experience more pleasant. Dr. Lahasky was one of the most gentle dentist I’ve ever had. She made me feel comfortable and was always checking on me and asking me how I was doing. I highly recommend Hood Dental Care Livingston."
    - Kody Reynolds
  • "I called as soon as they opened this morning as a new patient presenting with a problem. They were able to get me in by 10:30, no questions asked! My crown had come loose, and Dr. Cantu was amazing, and her assistant Brooke was so so sweet and made me feel so comfortable, knowing that I have extreme anxiety. They worked with me to make things easy as possible, and as comfortable as possible. They even numbed me at my request just to take an impression because I was so nervous. They really go above and beyond here!"
    - Kenna Perry
  • "I went to Hood Dental Care on 12-27-23 to have dental checkup after a bad experience at another dental office. Hood Dental treated me very well. On this day I met the receptionist named Madelyn she was very kind and helpful. Then I met Brooke she was the dental assistant she made sure I was well taken care of. She was 1st class. Then I met Dr. Lahasky also 1st class. She treated me very well and made sure I was well taken care of. She found several issues that needed to be fixed. So on day 2, 12-28-23 I went back a little nervous because I had to have a root canal and crown. This is where I met again Madelyn and Sarah receptionist. Again very professional and very courteous. Today I also met Katelyn also 1st class assistant she prepared me for the procedure. And again Dr. Lahasky performed the procedure. After the root canal and the crown was complete they were going to move on to the filling I needed but had to stop due to me getting vertigo so bad that they couldn't continue. So they were kind enough to reschedule. Thank you Hood Dental for taking such good care if me."

  • "I came in for an emergency appointment and was blown away by this office. Dr. Lahasky and her assistant Kaitlyn were amazing! They did everything they could to work with me and saved my tooth! The best chair side manner I have ever had! Dr. Lahasky made sure I was comfortable throughout the entire procedure and Kaitlyn was very knowledgeable. She answered every question I had without hesitation. Even the girls at the front desk made sure I was taken care of quickly! I am beyond thankful for this office and the staff. I have always been afraid of the dentist but now that I have found this office I don’t think I’ll ever be afraid again. Thank y’all so much!"

  • "had an older cracked crown removed and replaced and a new crown made in their Lab there in the Hood Dental Care Office in Livingston, LA….all done same day, same visit today! My Dentist Dr. Lahaskey ( sorry if I spelled your name incorrectly) and Assistant Jessica worked so well together to make this procedure go well, a seamless transition, minimal pain, and professional workmanship! While the new crown was being made, I was able to take a little nap and wake up refreshed and ready for the new crown to be replaced on the prepared back tooth! Dr. Lahaskey also adjusted my mouthguard to properly fit the newly fitted crown! Hood Dental is a State-of-the-Art DentalPractice with the finest, professional, and most friendly staff of Dentists and Dental Assistants and Office Support Staff! We have used the Denham Office and the Livingston Office and both locations are top notch!"

    - Linda Stafford
  • "I had a great experience at Hood Dental. The office is clean. The entire staff was very friendly. Dr. Cantu was informative and answered all of my questions regarding my dental health. Brenna was my hygienist. She did an amazing job cleaning my teeth/gums and even explained my insurance coverage/payment. Another huge plus is they are open until 7pm on Mondays so I don't have to stress about taking time off work. This may sound strange but I'm looking forward to my next 6 month visit."

    - Danielle Blanchard
  • "I recently had my wisdom teeth removed and I was initially so nervous about the appointment. However, Dr. Free and his staff did an amazing job, made me feel at home, and reassured me that I was good hands. Procedure was painless, and I’m so glad that I got it over with! Dr. Free even called to check on how recovery was going. My husband has been going to him for years and recommended that I go as well."
    - Hope Dewald
  • "I had an access appear last week and was able to get in quickly to see Dr. Free. After X-rays and exam, his dental assistant told me that they could do the root canal I needed during that visit. This was an eye tooth and dental anesthesia is typically painful. It was a very pleasant surprise when I felt one prick of the needle and nothing more. Brooklyn and Ariel were my dental assistants and they were amazing. Brooklyn was there person I had the most interaction with and she was fabulous as were Dr. Free and Arial. Root canals aren’t fun but this was, seriously, a pleasant overall experience. Thank you!"

  • "It may sound strange but I actually enjoyed my appointment at Hood Dental Care, Zachary! Who knew that a visit to a dentist’s office could actually be fun?? I went to my appointment for my first visit -so hard to find not only a good dentist but to have a great experience with everyone I came into contact with is truly amazing! Haley and Shelby up front were very friendly and gracious. Destiny was a total sweetheart and made me feel at home-like an old friend. She and Kerri took care of all the X-rays, teeth cleaning and showed me the results all while having friendly and informative conversation. Dr Dan came in to give me his expertise on the state of my teeth and prioritized treatment plan. I appreciated his down to earth manner and practical advice/approach. Destiny talked to me about payment options available and set me up for my next appointment. I need a root canal and crown and she said they could do it as soon as that afternoon or whenever I’d like and wait...there really is an EASY button! I can get the root canal there AND they would make the crown AND I’d leave over, DONE, FINI! No hideous temporary crown! No specialist (aka, no specialist prices!) or lab to go back and forth getting the color right and taking so much time! I am SO READY!"

Thank you Hood Dental Clinic."
