Dr. Mettman’s bedside manner is the reason that I keep coming back.

For a first time patient I was treated very kindly. The doctor and his assistant was so kind and gentle with me. I never had any pain or discomfort with my procedure. I know for sure that I will be coming back for other treatments thank you again
My wife and I were very pleased with our Dental Hygienists, Amber and Tara, and highly recommend them to anyone seeking dental care. Dr Wendell Mettman is also a caring, first class, professional dentist that we’ve gone to for a couple decades or longer.
Dr Sujin is amazing!! Very gentle and skilled. I am a person that gets really uneasy and nervous about having dental work done. But I know he will take good care of me.
Thank you for getting us in so quickly! Very pleased with our service. Very helpful and very professional
Of course the procedures are a bit different right now but we should all be patient and understand the need for mask and precautions. I am sure they would prefer a speedy check in as well but overall it never takes them long. It is always a good experience and a Clean office. Dr. Sujan was quick and talked me through which helped me stay relaxed The team was very considerate of my comfort and my need to close my mouth or swallow. Great team all around and the receptionist are always very nice as well. I did not have a sitter and they allowed my 4 year old to sit quietly in a chair during my filling.
I felt very lucky to have been referred to this office. I found out I went to their office over 20 years ago. Every one was helpful and professional. They got me in immediately since I needed to return to my office out of state. Thank you!
You all are amazing! Anyone one I have talked to via phone or in person has been over the top friendly, patient & considerate with any questions or concerns I may have or even just to set up an appointment. The work you all do & the care you put into it makes going to the dentist not so scary & I'd be sure to tell all friends & family to join your team in their dental care!

Very nice people that work here. They helped me out right away and was very cost effective. I will definitely go back
I was given an appointment quickly and everyone in the office was very friendly and helpful.
I am so pleased with the treatment I received from Dr. Mettman and his staff. I needed a bridge replacement and of course, it was more complex than I expected. Dr Mettman knew I was leaving on a trip to Spain and he expedited the the bridge to ensure I would have it before I left. It arrived two days prior to departure! If it wasn't for his caring compassion, it would not have happened. I cannot express how happy I am that I changed dentists and am now a patient of Dr. Mettman.
I went in for 1 filling and they were able to take care of the second one at the same time. Everyone is always friendly and helpful. Great teamwork!
Excellent service, very friendly and professional staff, responsive to patient needs and desires. My wife and I have been patients for over 10 years and have been very pleased with the service provided.
I was very pleased with my appointment with Midwest Dental in Derby. The dentist I had been with for nearly 15 years moved out of the area and I needed to find a new place for my dental care. Midwest folks were very friendly and helpful. I had X-rays and cleaning. everyone was very professional, the offices are very nice, easy to find, equipment is top notch. I arrived, was welcomed, assisted in registration and taken right in. Definately FIVE STAR treatment. I'm back on a regular dental routine and confident in their abilities!
Everyone I met was super nice. Nice to have a coupon as a first time patient.
My 16 year old daughter has severe anxiety when it comes to going to the dentist. We switched over to Midwest Dental Derby after several less than pleasant/comfortable visits for her at another office. From her very 1st appointment, that required an extraction to a cleaning and now a challenging root canal, the entire staff and Dr. Judd have been top notch! No more battles to get her to the office or having to hold her down in the chair. So gentle, caring and compassionate! I can't say enough about how great Midwest Dental Derby is. Thank you for putting her (and this mama) at ease and making going to the dentist a good experience! It's a complete 180! You guys are honestly the BEST!
My hygienist is awesome. She is kind, and gentle. She offers suggestions as needed to improve my dental health and compliments me when I've made progress. All the staff is friendly!
Usually the dentist is not a good experience and it makes me nervous. This is the best dentist office I have ever been to. Dr. Judd was phenomenal and sadly I can't remember the name of the hygienist at the moment, because she was phenomenal also! They were both nice, gentle, professional, thorough, and pleasant. I would definitely recommend them!
Some of the nicest people you'll ever meet. I was late and called to let them know. The receptionist assured me that it was no problem. I was nervous about showing the few teeth I have left. Kim assured me and made me feel no worries. She also explained to me everything the doctor had decided to do and then went on to explain the next steps we would be taking. Totally happy with Midwest Dental because they care and they show it.
Both my wife Rebecca and I are new residents and new clients. We are very satisfied with our care and appreciate the welcoming we received. Hope this is the start of a long-lasting relationship.
I was happy with the staff and the manner in which they performed the procedure for me.
If you are in need of a Great dentist and exceptional office staff look no further.
My family has been using Midwest Dental for 10+ years and have experienced excellent service this entire time. The doctors and assistants are very professional and I trust their advice concerning my oral health. One thing I have learned is not to be late for an appointment as I'm usually ushered in by the hygienists before my actual appointment time. I have and will continue to recommend Midwest Dental.
Great service! Our family has had our dental work done at Midwest Dental Derby for almost 30 years. Never have had a problem--all are great at their jobs and very friendly.
