Had my first visit at southern roots today and they’re officially our family dentist. Super impressed with the office atmosphere and level of care! The dentist isn’t something people... typically look forward to, walking into a welcoming and warm office definitely eases the anxiety! Dr. Gilley was awesome and my hygienist was super sweet (I’m horrible with names). They deserved a Google review 😊read more

My son and I are literally new to Minden. We’re from Dallas, TX…..I must say the staff there were very nice and friendly. The waiting area is so clean and well kept. The receptionist (I... never got her name) but she was so help and helping me to understand how to do the at home whitening kit I purchased for my son. I would definitely recommend them to my family and friends. Great job you guys.read more

My daughter turned 13 recently and it was time to move away from the pediatric dentistry spectrum and move to a general dentist now that all her permanent teeth are in. We have only ever... used Shreveport/Bossier pediatricians, optometrists, and dentists since she was born and still do, but we stepped outside the box and went local for a new dentist. After being told that my daughters teeth were fine by her pediatric dentist recently we discovered from Southern Roots Minden that she had a crossbite even though her teeth were straight. The staff were very patient and very kind and assessed that braces were possibly needed for her. I thank the staff for being thorough. Although expensive, my babygirl now has her braces on and on her way to perfect teeth alignment! Thankful I went with them! You will not find a better staff than here!read more

Stephanies General E.

First off, i havent been to dentist in a while. Right off the bat i felt welcomed and not nervous. They explained everything that was needed with the presumed costs that i should pay. I... would definitely recommend them to anyoneBrandonread more

Brandon K.

I just relocated to the Shreveport area and had no point of reference for a new dentist. I made the decision to try Southern Roots Dentistry because I saw their billboard and it appealed to... me aesthetically. I knew myself and my daughter needed a significant amount of care because we both hadn't seen a dentist since Covid hit. We have fallen in LOVE with Southern Roots. I see Dr. Gilley and my daughter sees Dr. Lowder. They are both wonderful and their entire staff is truly top notch. Another huge plus is the fact that my daughter has special needs and I advised them of this before her visit and they have treated her with the utmost care and consideration. She actually looks forward to seeing Dr. Lowder and the Ladies on staff. Needless to say, we couldn't be more pleased.read more

Cynthia B.

My Daughter's really enjoy, coming to this location. I love the fact that the staff and dental providers has already built a repore with them, to whereas they are comfortable in actually... going to the dental office.read more

Kristalyn P.

They have an awesome, friendly, and professional staff. They were very knowledgeable, so that definitely gave us a sense of comfort. I would recommend them to anyone.

Cara H.

Very friendly, professional, and the environment was filled with positivity!

Darren S.

If I could give them more than 5 stars, I absolutely would!! I really cannot put into words the impact they had on me mentally and emotionally. The way I feel now vs when I initially walked... into their office.... like night and day! I feel like they sincerely care and want to help in every way possible.read more
