Excellent consultation! I really liked the team and Dr. Pillai’s honest advice on treatment for problems. Receptionist team is good in communication. I would highly recommend. Don't give your mouth to unethical other doctors who fills pocket using your free insurance elsewhere, I think many places ! My own experience!!!

Unity Dental is the most professionally managed dental service I’ve ever experienced in my life, from Dr Pillai to his entire team. They make you feel very comfortable and answer all questions completely, with a smile.
