Dear Dr. Carpenter,

I can't explain how grateful I am of your generosity! You have truly helped me gain all the confidence I need in my smile. Not only this, but you have shown me that you take enormous pride and effort in your work and I am SO thankful that I could be one of your patients. Every time I look at my teeth I can't help but smile!

with ALL thanks & appreciation!

To prospective patients of Dr. Carpenter:

I don't have major problems with my teeth, just an ordinary mouth. But as you know, one way to prevent future problems is to get the best possible dental care on a regular basis. If I had a need for masillofacial surgery, then there would be no question about needing the services of a prosthodontist. But I just have ordinary needs. Where do I get off demanding such a highly qualified dentist. I will aceept nothing less than a Board-certified prosthodontist. I feel very fortunate that such a person is available even to people without special needs.

Why a prosthodontist? Because they are the most highly trained of all the dental professionals. With a prosthodontist, you are already in the elite of dental practitioners. But the best training is not enough. In addition, my dentist must have good hands. The best training isn't effective unless the knowledge can be applied with technical precision and artistry.

I selected Dr Carpenter because these two attributes place him in the top !% of dentists. Dr. has a strong sense of patient comfort, and his empathy helps to raise a patient's confidence.

Would I go to Dr Carpenter if his staff weren't excellent? I probably would. But his staff IS excellent. They are not only highly professional, but enthusiastic and friendly.

Would I recommend Dr. Carpenter to a friend? Yes. I have done so in the past and will in the future. The typical feedback I get from my friend is "I had no idea how much better dental care could be. I have confidence in Dr Carpenter"

I have been a patient of Dr. Raymond E. Carpenter’s for ten years. From the very first time I walked into his office a professional atmosphere was there. His staff is always attentive, responsive and cooperative. They truly exhibit the philosophy that the customer is always first.

Over the years my complex dental needs have given many challenges to Dr. Carpenter’s activities as a prosthodontist. We have worked them out and I must say I am extremely happy with the results. Of course, dental needs are a continuing condition, and Dr. Carpenter’s professionalism has helped me see exactly what is needed.

One of the things I admire about Ray is his keen insight into coming up with solutions to one’s dental needs. I find it amazing how he can make it all work. He takes the time to analyze your situation, provide an understandable process, move forward with what needs to be done to accomplish the job at hand, recommend other professionals - all the while keeping you informed of what is going on and working with you regarding payment and insurance needs.

His approach to making sure you are comfortable with the decisions discussed and the procedures involved make him one of the finest dentists I have had the pleasure of being around. He keeps himself current as a prosthodontist and you can have the comfort of knowing his procedures are the most up to date.

I have been a patient of Dr. Raymond E. Carpenter for many years. I came to him after having unsatisfactory experiences with other dentists and have never regretted the move. I am pleased with all the work that Dr. Carpenter has done for me and would highly recommend him to you for several reasons.

First, he is a meticulous worker. He will put in all the time and attention needed to make his work as near perfect as possible. Even when I expressed satisfaction with his work, he insisted on continuing to work unil it was perfect. I have benefited from his attention to detail by having a smile that I can be proud of. Before becoming a patient of Dr. Carpenter’s, I never wanted to smile because I had no confidence in how I looked. Now I love to smile for pictures with my grandchildren. He has done a great deal to improve my self-esteem just by helping me to look my very best.

I have also been impressed with Dr Carpenter’s character. I have found him to be friendly, respectful, and trustworthy. I always feel welcomed when I come in for my visit. This even carries over to how he runs his office. He is respectful of my time by scheduling visits so that I do not wait endlessly in the waiting room for my appointment.

Dr. Carpenter is the only dentist that I can recommend with complete confidence. I have found him to be conscientious, of good character, and dedicated to helping me look my very best. I am very grateful to him for the years of good service that he has given me. Please give him your careful consideration when choosing a Dentist or Prosthodontist.

Dear Doctor,

I have been a patient of yours for over 10 years at your former office and now at your new location. During this time I have found you to be very accommodating, considerate, and professional, On one occasion when I chipped my tooth on a weekend you responded to my emergency call and made the repair. I wish you the best of luck in your new location and I will continue to use your services.

Dear Dr. Carpenter,

Just a note to let you know that I am real satisfied with my dentures you made.

I went to all the dentists I could find to ask them to make a lower plate and they all said it would take an exceptional prosthodontist to be able to make a plate to fit my lower gums that a dentist tore all to pieces pulling my last 2 teeth for dentures. They all refused saying they couldn’t make a lower denture that would fit properly. I can eat anything and they stay in place so I don’t even need messy Fixodent either. I will recommend you to anyone! Thankfully yours.

Dear Dr. Carpenter

Sam and I wish to thank you for the efficient and caring manner in which you have taken care of our dental needs for the last several years. Our association began in Escondido and continues very conveniently for us now in Rancho Bernardo.

Your work has always been very professionally handled, and we appreciate that your staff has always been able to make you available when we have had a sudden emergency. We both hope we have many years to need your services.

-P.L. & S.L.

Dear Dr. Carpenter

It isn’t often one gets to thank or even appreciate going to the dentist. However, my experience in your chair was made so comfortable that I just had to express my gratitude for a job well done!

Your follow-up call to inquire about my well-being was just such a nice gesture and although I don’t look forward to the necessity of repeating my visit, you know I’ll be there when I need your services.

I do not hesitate to recommend any of my friends to you.

Dear Dr. Carpenter

I’ve been your patient for several years and have always felt comfortable with the friendly, warm treatment I received from both you and your staff.

What impressed me most was your honest assessment of my dental problems and the best procedure to follow. This past year you advised me that it was time for a full upper denture; something I’ve tried to avoid for too long. Even with years of periodontal care, there was no other recourse. You assured me that I would be happy with the results and you were so right.

I appreciate your professional skills and thank you for the time you spent in giving me my new, natural-looking smile.

Dr. Carpenter did multiple outstanding jobs for both of us over the last 15 years. First in Escondido and afterwards in Rancho Bernardo. Our dental work was difficult, but lasted for many years and was cosmetically absolutely perfect. As a matter of fact it made better looking people of both of us!

Not only did Dr. Carpenter perform technically excellent work, but he also was – and is – sensitive and concerned about us (his patients). He was always available on short notice for any emergency.

His efficient, friendly and experienced staff assisted him and us very well.

We wish Dr. Carpenter future success and can recommend him highly as a caring, extremely good dentist and doctor.

Dear Dr. Carpenter,

I have expressed my high regard for you verbally many times. Recently, it occurred to me to express my thoughts in writing.

I have been your patient for the past 3 ½ years. During that time, you have performed extensive prosthodontic procedures in most exemplary professional and personal manner.

Having had considerable experience with dentists and prosthodontists over many years, I can attest that you are the very best that I have encountered. Your professional assessments and technical solutions are without peer. Additionally, you and your staff have always gone way beyond the norm in being accommodating and considerate of the best interests of the patient.

I consider you to be a friend as well as my dentist

Dear Dr. Carpenter,

Both my wife and I enjoy the services provided by you and your staff. I have been a patient of yours for approximately 15 years and my wife for at least the last 5 years.

Your office surroundings are quite pleasant and always in A-1 shape.

My mouth has had a lot of work done to maintain my own teeth for which you are to be congratulated. My three implants and their crowns are very satisfactory as are the five implants and their crowns for my wife.

My wife gets many compliments on her mouth. The regular cleanings by your efficient staff has done much to support this. She is gentle on her teeth while I tend to be much rougher on my teeth.

Currently I am preparing to get a crown for a tooth with considerable decay. I am sure it will be consistent with the find work you have performed in the past.

We both look forward to many years of excellent dental work in our mouths.

With kind personal regards and sincere thanks for the excellent work from you and your staff,

Sincererly
