Upon graduation, Dr. Garris earned the distinction of the Clinical Excellence Award in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery and graduated with honors.

Orange Blossom Dental - Genevieve Garris DMD

Orange Blossom Dental is the best dental practice I have experienced. Dr Garris recommended a few procedures I needed and patiently explained them to me. We waited until my insurance approved them and I knew clearly what my out of pocket would be. The work was performed (filing and teeth reconstruction) with outstanding quality and efficiency. I could not be more pleased. Dr Garris and her staff are very kind and engaging. She is very respectful and caring. Her facility is new and top quality. She accepts most insurance plans it seems, including mine. I found many dental practices did not accept my plan even though it is one of the "major plans". If you re looking for a new dentist, I strongly encourage you to try this practice.

Exceeded my expectations! I always have aniexty going to a new dentist but as soon as I got there my aniexty faded. Office staff is very sweet and helpful. My hygienist was wonder. Trish made me feel comfortable and listened to my concerns. Dr. Genevieve was amazing and so sweet. She explained my treatment plan in detail while answering all questions. They also have state of the art dental technology to make your dental experience the best it can be. 5 out of 5 stars.

I recently moved from California and needed to find a new dentist in the area. Since I already found my new primary care physician in the same plaza, I decided to give Orange Blossom Dental a try. I'm so glad I did!From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by a very friendly and helpful staff. Dr. Garris was incredibly thorough and prepared. She had already reviewed my dental records and x-rays from my previous dentist before even meeting me. This showed me that she was genuinely interested in my oral health and not just going through the motions.One of the things that impressed me most about Orange Blossom Dental is their honest and straightforward approach. Unlike some other dental offices I've been to in the past, they didn't try to push unnecessary procedures or treatments to boost their sales. Dr. Garris clearly explained what needed to be addressed and what could be monitored during routine cleanings. There was absolutely no pressure to immediately fix a small cavity, and she provided me with a realistic timeline for when it should be addressed.I've spent a significant amount of money on dental work in the past, often feeling like I was being upsold on procedures I didn't truly need. Orange Blossom Dental is a refreshing change. They prioritize my oral health and provide honest, transparent care.I highly recommend Dr. Garris and Orange Blossom Dental to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dentist in the Groton area.

Love Dr. Garris, the assistants, hygienists, and the whole staff. They are very thorough and show you pics of current and likely future issues with your teeth and gums. And then let you decide if and when you want to take preventive/corrective action.

I had my first appointment at Orange Blossom Dental yesterday, I can't be more satisfied with the Staff, The facility, The equipment, and Doctor Garris who was wonderful, professional amd extremely capable. Denise, my hygienist, was very thorough and did a great job cleaning my teeth. Dr Garris did a complete exam and spent time with me explaining and showing me things that could be improved. I'm so happy that I found orange blossom as my new dental office.

I have just had my lower partial dentures fitted, my upper's where fitted end of last year. I have to say the whole process has just been amazing. My wife and I have been using Orange Blossom Dental for over a year, I can't say how amazing and professional the folks are. Dr Garris went through in great detail my various option regarding replacing my missing teeth, laying out the detailed cost of each option as well as the Pro's and Con's of each option. There was never any pressure in any way, Dr Garris as I said, detail my options and we came up with a plan of action. I can't say how pleased I am with the outcome, it has been years since I had a full set of teeth, so very happy, great Job DR Garris and all your amazing staff.

Sometimes you move to a new area and are lucky to find an amazing dentist on the first go around. Dr. Garris is extremely competent and possesses a stress-reducing manner, the office is relaxing, and the dental assistants and staff are solid. My only hesitation in recommending this practice is that spreading the word might make it harder for me to get an appointment.A bonus of this location is the Dolce Amar cafe close by (a great spot to relax if you have someone waiting for you during a procedure).

I just started going to Orange Blossom Dental and have had a few appointments with Dr. Garris and her team. All of my experiences have been excellent, the entire staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. Any questions I've had have been answered thoroughly and we came up with a well thought out treatment plan going forward. I highly recommend Orange Blossom Dental if you are looking for a happy, laid back, and relaxed environment to address your dental needs!
