Dr. Rym C. Partridge, DDS 3337 Mission Drive, Santa Cruz, CA 95065

"I visited Dr Partridges office when he was in Santa Cruz during mid 2000.s. My experience was positive.I would replace 2 crowns each year while I had dental insurance due to old silver fillings. I had an older front tooth with a white cap , post, and root canal in a front tooth, #9. It may have needed to be replaced as it had been 30 years BUT.... somewhere in the process, I developed a problem and didn’t realize it until years later. Somewhere in the process, #9 root became fractured creating an infection. The tooth dropped about 16th of an inch lower than the other front tooth. When I would use the tooth to eat, my gums would swell. It has gotten so bad, I am in need of a tooth extraction and am electing an implant after 8 months of healing. I am freaking out as I felt I was done with my front tooth back in 2007 when Dr Partridge updated my tooth!!!"

"All I can say and want folks to know is that if you have a dental problem that you have been avoiding taking care of it because either you've been scared or trying to find a great dentist, look no further. Dr. Partridge and his wonderful staff have a way of making you feel comfortable and want to see you smile once again and be healthy. I had a terrible problem I lived with for 15 years avoiding to correct because of the way a couple of dentist made me feel. I couldn't live this way any longer and got a recommendation of Dr. Partridge by a few people. I was able to be sedated lightly which made the procedure comfortable and pain free, and I was happy that I finally met someone who cared enough to tackle my problem. Sometimes, we just have to take care of ourselves.They have a great way of making payments, but most all, it is great to live pain free and to be able to smile with pride again. Besides, having a handsome face to look at isn't so bad either :)"

"Exceptional dentist and outstanding staff!"

"Going to the dentist is fun!!! Believe it or not, 21st Century technology has made going to the dentist entertaining. I had a broken tooth that was driving me nuts, and when I went in to see Dr. Partridge, he took X rays which appeared on a screen right in front of me, and I could see the bits of tooth that were causing me a great deal of pain. Then Dr. Partridge took a video camera and lead me on a tour of my teeth, which I saw on a screen. I could see what he was seeing and understood when he pointed out the work I needed. Doc was gentle with the anesthetic needle and dug out those old pieces of tooth and even gave them to me as a keepsake when the work was done. As he was working I watched surf videos on the roof to distract me from all the digging around in my mouth. So, it was a 21st Century, audio visual experience, which made it interesting. And he eased the pain."
