Dr Baker and staff have been amazing. I have been working on getting my smile back to being perfect and Dr.Baker has been understanding when we have to space things out because of financial constraints. Can’t say enough good about Dr Baker and Staff. Office is always clean and welcoming and supportive office staff are great also. I will always recommend them to others.

Dr Baker and his staff are the greatest dental care provider that I have gone to. Dr Baker is upfront and honest about what work needs to be done and how best to go about it. They provide you with as many options as possible to get you to the optimum goal. The staff is greatest, always very friendly and caring, with smiles for everyone. Had to visit DR Baker again to have another Dentists work fixed. Dr Baker did a fantastic job again and the staff I can’t say enough good things about them. They are the best.

I had a snaggle tooth for 30 yesterday. Dr Baker replaced this cap with a perfect color matching Implant. A year later, the tooth matches and is nice and tight. I could not be happier, well worth the money.


 July 3, 2024

Dr. Baker and his team made me feel well prepared and comfortable during my wisdom tooth surgery. Big thank you to their team!


 

 July 3, 2024

Dr. Baker and his team have been a huge blessing to me. I broke 3 teeth unexpectedly. He handled it very well. Even when I called with a after hour concern he was polite professional. Highly recommend for dental health. Well done guys well done.

I had a gum graft on my front tooth. I was really worried about the surgery and the pain afterwards. The surgery went quite well. I really had no reason to be so worried. I kept taking the ibuprofen every 4 hours and kept ice packs on my front jaw for 2 days. It swelled but was not unbearable. Lost the first stitches off roof of mouth in 4 days. No pain. Just gone. 3 days later the front stitches were gone. While it wasn’t painless it was nothing like what I had expected. Totally a great experience. Staff and Dr Baker were extremely helpful, gentle and reassuring. I recommend them 100%.

 I recommend Dr Baker and all his staff without reservation. It’s a comfortably pleasant, friendly environment. Best place to be for implant and periodontal dentistry.

They have great personalities and are very friendly! They made me feel comfortable and well informed. The experience overall was a lot less stressful than I was anticipating. I was anxious about the procedure before going but they answered all my questions and help clarify what I should expect, and rid me of any concerns I had. The staff all have wonderful personalities and from what I have seen they work well as a team and have fabulous bedside manners. They also had llama bandaids that really topped off the whole experience! If you are getting your wisdom teeth out i highly recommend this place!

 This morning I had an upper broken off last molar extracted by Dr. Baker and his assistant. The cracked molar was deemed hopeless by my regular dentist and I was referred to Dr. Baker for removal. From the time I stepped into the office I was treated professionally and with care along with assurances they were available for any needed aftercare. Even though I’m an anxious patient, I only felt minimal discomfort upon removal and would call it a pain free experience. I’ve already recommended Dr. Baker and staff to friends.

 

    

 February 9, 2024

 So appreciate the excellent dental care and customer service that I received at Dr. Baker’s office.

 


 

 

 February 9, 2024

Dr. Baker and his medical staff are absolutely phenomenal. Not only did they provide fast, courteous service with great precision, but they made me feel comfortable and informed me at every step what was happening according to procedure and in my unique case. I can't imagine doing another implant anywhere else.

 


 

 February 6, 2024

Over the years, I’ve had 4 successful implants with Dr Baker at Bellingham Peridontal and Implant Clinic it’s always been a very quick professional experience , from the minute you walk in , there is never any wait in the waiting room , all the staff from reception to billing are efficient and courteous and always made my experience a comfortable one.. Im not taking my heavy tooth care anywhere else, glad to have you all in Bellingham. Joseph M.

 


 

 January 25, 2024

It's been 1 year since I had 2 implants placed. X-rays today look great. It's been a good experience. I would highly recommend Dr. Baker.

 


 

 January 9, 2024

 I had a great experience with Dr. Baker and his tech’s. I am one year post implant, I have had absolutely no problems.


 

November 3, 2023

Dr. Baker and his staff were beneficial in my oral care. Friendly staff, opened early in the morning and took care of me right away.


 


 September 29, 2023

The implant went really good. There was little or no pain with the implant and I’m really happy with it. The staff there were very good and friendly.


 

September 2, 2023

I had a great experience here. My implant is perfect and healed with out a problem. At one point, my health insurance was ending and Dr. Baker went out of his way to make sure I could get in ASAP before the coverage end date which I am so appreciative of! Thanks Dr. Baker and Team

 


 

 August 31, 2023

The absolute best implant surgeon in my opinion. I had interviewed 2 prior to choosing Dr. Baker and had 2 previous implants done in Denver. I will go back in the future if I ever need implants again. Knowledgable, technically extremely skilled and judgement A+. The office extremely well run, organized and could not be more efficient. The staff were all professional and kind, a good reflection from the top. Hope this helps anyone needing implants in Bellingham , Wa. or Vancouver, BC

 

   

 August 25, 2023

Through the past several years I've had three implants done, all at Implant and Periodontal Clinic. Every time I was at the clinic the staff was courteous and helpful. Dr. Baker is most experienced and wonderful. My implants fit perfectly every time without any adjustments. I'm so lucky to have Dr. Baker as my periodontist.

 


 

August 3, 2023 

 Did great work and I am very pleased!!



 August 2, 2023

Love this place. Got me in and out in lil of no time. Didn't have an appointment and they made it work. Didn't take my money and run. They actually told me what other problems i would run into if i dont get more work done with my own provider.

  



June 30, 2023

Had an amazing experience with Dr. Baker and his team. After experiencing a severe toothache, I called in and not only was Dr. Baker able to get me an appointment for the following morning, but he was able to support with immediate assistance the evening before (prescription, tips, care etc.). The day of the appointment, he and his team followed up with another great experience. As someone who has a fear of the dentist, they ensured that I was comfortable, informed, and that it was a judgement free zone. I left with a strong care plan for my teeth and felt GREAT about the high level of support I received from start to finish. Prior to this experience I had never leveraged emergency dental care, I was so incredibly grateful that I was able to connect with Dr. Baker and team (especially with the pain that I was in). I highly recommend his clinic to friends, family and coworkers.

 


 June 22, 2023

The staff here was a pleasure to work with all professional and friendly. Dr. Baker does very detailed and thorough work while making it a positive experience! Overall 5 stars!


 June 18, 2023

Dr Baker removed and replaced my #14 upper molar about a year ago. The entire process was easy, painless and, from my perspective, a total success. The friendly professionalism of Dr Baker and his staff put me completely at ease. I hope I don’t need to have another tooth replaced with an implant, but if I do, I would not go anywhere else to have it done.

 


 

 

June 7, 2023

So welcoming, comfortable and friendly. Very efficient and good at what they do. Who knew a tooth removal was so easy!? Dr. Baker definitely knows what he is doing. They even gave me a heated blanket because I was cold during my procedure! Relaxing atmosphere as well.


 


June 7, 2023

Doctor Baker removed my wisdom tooth that my regular dentist attempted to remove but was unable to. He has it out in no time which was a relief after my prior day at my other dentist was almost an hour of stress while they had attempted to remove the tooth. I felt Doctor Baker had great technique and bedside manner. I even got to keep the problem tooth…..just have to figure out what to do with it.


  

 May 30, 2023

I have had a number of implants installed by Dr. Baker. He is fast and efficient and effective. I have not had a single problem with any of the implants, some which required bone grafts. I would recommend this business to any and all implant and periodontal work.


 

 Wonderful and Dr Baker and Christina your profession found both of you. Thumbs up


 

May 25, 2023

I was very upset at having to lose a tooth. They put me under so I didn't have to feel or hear anything. Pain for a few days subsided. It is healing well. The staff is very accommodating and kind. I would definitely go back!!




 

May 25, 2023

My experience at Bellingham Implant and Periodontal Clinic has and continues to be 5 Stars. I have all new uppers that look great, feel great, most importantly function perfectly. Dr. Baker and the entire staff are easy to work with and very pleasant, they are now my full time dental clinic. You can share this publicly, I would have if I could figure out how.

 April 27, 2023

 Dr. Baker’s office provided wonderful care of my dental needs. I would trust any periodontal issues I have to Dr. Baker.




April 25, 2023

 Simply the best! By my early 70s, my mouth was in terrible shape. Although I had taken good care of my teeth in the last couple of decades, my teeth suffered the effects of decay that went back more than a half century to my youth. I had multiple teeth extracted through the years and even fixed bridges were no longer an option. Finally, I was referred by my regular dentist to Dr. David Baker at the Implant & Periodontal Clinic in Bellingham, WA. Dr. Baker, aided by his superb dental assistants, evaluated my condition and needs, and his financial coordinator explained the costs and answered my questions about payment. I required three extractions and seven implants from Dr. Baker. He, again aided by his assistants, finished the work in one session to my amazement. They ensured my comfort and allayed any fears and concerns I had. Today, I had my one-year follow-up appointment with Dr. Baker. Since the implants, my regular dentist installed the crowns. While I'm way over the hill age-wise, my teeth look like those of a movie star. Thank you so much, Dr. Baker, and thanks to your wonderful dental team and staff. I'm forever grateful!

Whether you are in for a routine checkup or a more complex procedure, you can trust that you are in good hands with Dr. Baker. Overall, I highly recommend Dr. Baker and his team.

First time ever getting a implant. Would recommend to any family and friends.

This clinic has a very positive atmosphere. The staff is very helpful, caring, friendly and informative. I recently went in for a gum graft. Initially, I was very apprehensive. During my initial consultation and exam, they were very reassuring and really listened to me. They were able to assess my problem area and described in easy to understand language what the procedure would entail as well as what recovery would be like. On the day of my surgery they answered my questions, gave me good advice on how to manage my care at home, and made sure I was as comfortable as possible. Top drawer quality care from start to finish, a very positive experience. I would highly recommend. Dr. Brawley and Dr. Baker. You will be in good hands.

 I appreciated the professionalism from the front desk to the back office. Care an outcome were excellent. He spent the time to fully explain the procedure and answer all questions.

 


 January 12, 2023

 All of the staff were very welcoming and friendly, putting my daughter at ease for her oral procedure. Treatment and follow-up care was explained thoroughly. They patiently answered all of our questions. The front desk personnel were kind and helpful during visits and follow-up phone calls. Plenty of room for parking and comfortable waiting area. This will be our first choice for any future oral procedures.

October 14, 2022

Really made me feel comfortable and relaxed. Dr. Baker is an amazing surgeon. One of the best I’ve had. I asked for some ZZ Top to be played and sure enough, he played the music. I could thank them both enough. Highly recommended for anyone who is on the fence about dental surgeons.

 Dr. Baker and his staff performed 3 extractions and installed 2 implants for me in the past 4 years, and I couldn't be more pleased with the results. The procedures were pain and hassle free. Everyone there is professional, friendly, compassionate, and confidence inspiring. Costs to the penny are laid out ahead of time. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone needing their help. Good place to do business with.

 My 18 year old son lost his front tooth when he was 10 (skateboard to the mouth). He’s a first-year student at Western, in his first few weeks, and the tooth came out. He felt really self-conscious. This all happened on a Friday. Dr. Baker got him in that day and took care of his temporary tooth and then set him up with a colleague who makes the longer term lab-version of the tooth. This guy went out of his way to support my son and follow up over a weekend. Top customer care!


 

 September 28, 2022

 Dr Baker has treated me several times thru the years with excellent results. He and his staff always make what could normally be a dreaded experience anything but. They are always friendly, professional and intent on making it comfortable procedure. They are absolutely 5 star rated.


 

 September 23, 2022

 I had an appointment with my doctor on a Friday but got called saying she was sick and wouldn’t be seeing patients. My back wisdom took was in extreme pain and cracked and I was unable to sleep, eat anything. My mom (god bless her) called that Friday morning to any emergency dentists in Bellingham and was able to get me into see Dr.Baker. I went right in after they said they could see me and got an Exray done. With that Dr. Baker said he would extract 3 bad teeth for the price of one!! I was elated because that was saving me money! I would recommend this Dentist to anyone that is to ask! And also his assistant Jill she was amazing making sure my blood sugar was ok (I’m a type 1 diabetic) and explaining everything out to me!! Thank you guys so much!!

 Dr. Baker and staff are the best. He took the time to listen to my concerns about my teeth, made me feel very comfortable. There was NO pain or discomfort after my implant, I would recommend Dr. Baker over and over

Dr. Baker, and the entire staff, are professional, friendly, patient and very helpful. I have had several important procedures over the last 10 years and each time their demeanor, compassion and skill have made me feel at ease. I couldn't recommend them more highly!

 



Whatcom Hiker (Whatcomhiker)

Dr. Baker was not only an outstanding professional and skilled oral surgeon. He corrected a less skill oral surgeons mistake. Over the course of several procedures he helped with making difficult implants as painless as possible. The best thing for me was finding Dr. Baker after experiencing a surgeon with far less skills. Thanks to the doctor and a excellent staff.

 


 

Keith Zink

Dr. Baker and his team provided excellent care. They took time to thoroughly explain their work and followed up regularly to make sure things were going well. I'd recommend them without hesitation.


 

Elaine Alpert

How can anyone possibly earn 5 stars on so many reviews and deserve such a high rating? Two, three, or even five top ratings can be from someone's cousins, roommates, or closest friends, but 139?? I now know that every one of these ratings and stars are well-deserved. My tale of woe: I needed to be seen urgently and my general dentist referred me to Dr. Baker. The receptionist, Shelby, sensed over the phone that I was in discomfort and figured out a way for me to be seen that very day. A couple of hours later, I was on my way home with clear follow up instructions. I was just back there yesterday for the implants I ultimately needed; the procedure was super easy and I''m healing well and nearly pain-free. This practice (and everyone who works there) has that rare combination of being supremely professional, A+ in terms of technique, completely reassuring, thoroughly pleasant, and very clear in terms of what to expect in terms of healing and follow up. I've now been seen three times and my initial impression is only reinforced. A special shout-out to Shelby who I personally observed handling a variety of calls and in-person requests with grace, tact, and admirable patience. And Dr. Baker - you are terrific too! See you in a couple of months for my scheduled follow up and then after that, hopefully only by chance out in a store or on a trail :)


 

Beth Bajema

My experience with Dr. Baker and staff far met my expectation! The implant that I needed was very unexpected so needless to say I was very apprehensive about coming in. They were super thorough in explaining to me the process and the necessity of the implant. The procedure went very smooth and was painless as well! No issues whatsoever! I highly recommend them!


 


Brian Lee

Dr Baker and his staff are the greatest dental care provider that I have gone to.

Dr Baker is upfront and honest about what work needs to be done and how best to go about it. They provide you with as many options as possible to get you to the optimum goal.
The staff is greatest, always very friendly and caring, with smiles for everyone.


  

Wayne Weed

I was a bit nervous about having a molar implant. Yet, when finally making the decision after several years of procrastination. I don't know why I waited. It's been a little over a year now since the procedure and I am totally satisfied. Important to me was how the details were explained and performed by my dentist, Dr. Meyer, Ferndale and by Dr. Baker at Implant & Periodontal Clinic. There were no surprises and the whole process was amazing and painless. They're the best!


 

Lynnann Case

Dr. Baker and his team were so kind and got me treated urgently. Entire office is kind, caring and professional! Highly recommend



Terry Stach

I put off my gum graft for so long (over 2 years actually) …but come to find out, it was not a big deal. Dr. Baker and his staff were great and did a great job helping me to understand the whole process beginning to end. 10/10 highly recommend.

 

Coral Caruso

I have to say, I was apprehensive going into my periodontal surgery for crown lengthening and removal of Tori. I had previously heard some very negative, scary things about the surgery for removal of the Tori - that the recovery would be horrible. Dr. Baker and his staff could not have been more knowledgeable and comforting, and really put me at ease. The surgery was painless, went precisely as planned, and the recovery was pretty darn easy. I am so happy with the results. And those painful Tori are gone for good!

 


 

Gerri AndersonEpley

I think the main reason people don’t see a dentist regularly is because of shame or embarrassment. It takes a lot for a person with dental anxiety to walk through office doors.

I was worried. Am I looking at dentures? What’s this going to be like? How much is it going to cost? My heart was racing pretty well by the time I sat in that chair.
He comes in and introduces himself. He checks my x-rays, explains what’s going on. Then he did something that really resonated with me.
Dr. Baker said “We’re glad you’re here.” I was not anticipating that. Not one bit. My prior experiences were nowhere near as thoughtful.
I’m looking forward to my next visit with zero anxiety. Thank you all for making my first time there as easy as possible.


 

Gabriel Fauber

I’ve had two procedures done with Dr Baker, the first was in 2009 and the second was just this year. Both healed quickly and have held up well. He works quick and I never have to wait too long in the waiting room.


 


 

Deanna Stewart

Dr. Baker and his staff provide the best dental experience. They are gentle, kind, friendly and great listeners. I highly recommend them.


 

 

Katherine Kryt

Dr Baker and his staff are welcoming and friendly. Dr Baker is patient and takes his time to answer your questions. He is a perfectionist and stands behind his work. He did an excellent job installing my implant and followed up through the healing process until he was certain that everything was as it should be.



 

 
I had three implants done by Dr Baker. Everyone was done without problems and with excellent results. I especially like his soothing demeanor. The staff support is excellent. When needed, I will continue to use Dr Baker's expertise. I highly recommend Dr Baker if you need Periodontal care.

 

  

 


I never wanted to have gum surgery. But if I ever had to have gum surgery again, I would definitely come back to Dr. Matin and Dr. Baker. Dr. Matin did such an amazing job on my grafts, top and bottom. He talked to me about options, explained the plan, and was able to do the procedure just when I needed it. All of the staff were caring and helpful. They made the experience go smoothly from the first moments of booking, through the explaining of costs, working with insurance, keeping me calm before the surgery itself, and answering my text messages quickly and thoroughly whenever I had a concern about the healing process. Dr. Baker took my stitches out and somehow made the process more pleasant than I would have imagined possible. What a great team!
 

 

 

 


I had three implants done by Dr Baker. Everyone was done without problems and with excellent results. I especially like his soothing demeanor. The staff support is excellent. When needed, I will continue to use Dr Baker's expertise. I highly recommend Dr Baker if you need Periodontal care.




After hearing from three separate dentist that I need something for a tooth I had removed three years prior. I finally elected for another implant. I have had a necessary one placed 13 years prior for a completely separate tooth. Plenty of problems with that one. And a lifetime of hating dentists in general.

I was referred to Dr. Baker by my current dentist for the procedure.

I will tell you that this implant was quick, simple and painless. The entire staff is polite, kind and very thorough. This is a very timely operation, I never waited past my appointment time, and I never waited in the procedure room. Each step was explained by the staff. Plenty of opportunity to ask questions. The office is modern, clean and visually pleasing as the ceiling lights have lovely photos.

Dr Baker is very personable, keeps the process light and he was quick.

If I ever need another implant I would not hesitate to get one and I would travel to this office to get it.


 


I went to Dr. Baker when I needed a crown lengthening prior to a crown replacement and I couldn't be more pleased with my experience with Dr. Baker and the entire staff. He, Jill and Nina answered all my questions, helped me understand the entire process and made me feel comfortable and confident that all would be well. I would definitely recommend his practice to anyone who needs this type of work done.


 


Dr. Baker and his team give outstanding care to their patients! Dr.Baker takes time to listen and understand your concerns and questions and make the best care plan for your teeth! I’ve had two implants and both went very smooth! I have some dentist phobia, but not here! I was comfortable and confident! Thanks Dr. Baker and your amazing team!!


 


I have been a patient for 10 years. If you have to go to a periodontist, this is the place to go. Dr. Baker runs a first class operation. He is very skilled The entire staff is incredibly nice and knowledgeable. I have had implants and several other procedures here. I am very pleased with the results.


My experience with Dr. Baker was excellent. They were friendly, fast and very good at what they do. I have had 3 implants done and they are holding up well.



 


Dr. Baker was able to see me for an Emergency Extraction. I was in extreme pain and not only did he get me in the next day but he and his staff made sure I was as comfortable as possible. I felt well cared for and the procedure was virtually painless. I highly recommend this clinic to anyone dealing with extractions and implants.

I had to have two gum grafts and Dr. Baker was great at answering all my questions before hand. I had a pleasant experience during the procedure though I chose to be sedated as I don't like dental procedures. They were great at checking in after the procedure to make sure I was healing okay and answering any questions I had after the fact.

Dr.Baker was phenomenal. He listened to my concerns, answered my questions, and gave me back my smile! I told him it was my favorite feature, and I was scared, since the tooth involved was right up front - but I’m thrilled to say I can’t see a difference now!!

I have had two implants, a couple of years apart, and each time - EVERY - appointment was the best "dentist" experience in my life! Normally I shy away from such hyperbole, but yes, they are fantastic. Dr. Baker called me personally the night after my procedure to check on me and the office sent a personal card and chocolate bar to my house! For my first implant, I was scared away from a competitor by inflated prices and expensive add-on procedures that didn't end up being needed. Dr. Baker and his team are amazing! The second time I didn't consider going anywhere else . THANK YOU

Dr Baker is the best! Was referred to Dr Baker by my regular dentist for a bad tooth that needed to be removed. Dr Baker fit me in immediately, did a fantastic implant, all gently, efficiently. He is the best dentist, implant specialist. His Assistant, Jill, was so knowledgeable and helpful and nice. They have a very special group, with Dr Baker and all. The Best!!

 

 


 

 

 
 
If you need an implant you won't find a more professional, knowledgeable place to serve you in the city! Dr Baker is excellent at his job. He is highly educated in the field and along with that he has a natural talent for his chosen profession. He likes his work and takes pride in helping people out. The office is pleasant and clean everyone is helpful and respectful. Things were explained in layman's terms I understood everything and felt comfortable with the whole procedure from start to finish. I've had two implants with Dr Baker and highly recommend him and his staff.

Dr. Baker and his staff are excellent! From the the front desk staff to his assistants and everyone else that works in the office, each is very personal and professional. They put me at ease through the whole process from the initial consultation to my final follow up appointment. And, Dr. Baker's work is exceptional. I have zero concerns about the quality of his work. If the need should arise, I have no hesitation saying I'd return to Dr. Baker and his staff.

 


    

 
I am extremely satisfied with Dr. Baker and his staff. Everyone was so caring and took the time to thoroughly explain my options and the procedure I decided to go with. The packet of information they give you before you leave was very helpful, giving specific details on what to expect, things to do and what not to do. The care package I was sent home with was very thoughtful from the toothbrush to the ice pack, it was nice to be taken care of. I would recommend Dr. Baker over and over again.

 

 

 

 
 
I've recently had 2 implants with Dr. Baker. I would recommend Dr. Baker and his team to everyone! My teeth have turned out great with no issues during or after the implant. The personal care, from the evening phone call after the extraction to check on me, to the one year check up is incredible. I wouldn't go anywhere else! Thank you for making it such a great experience!

Second implant but first by Dr Baker. Much more efficient and less costly than the dentist down south. Highly Recommend this clinic.

  

 


Amazing staff makes you feel at ease. And wonderful work. And no long waits .


    

 


 


I was very pleased and impressed by the service I received from Dr. Baker and his staff. Overall my experience was very positive, which is saying something because I was NOT looking forward to the periodontal procedure itself. I felt well taken care of, and even received a personal check-in call from Dr. Baker and a care package from his staff after the initial procedure. My gums now feel better than they ever have. Well-organized, professional and friendly, I would highly recommend to anyone needing periodontal work.


 



Dr. Baker came to my rescue when an issue came up on an implant which was done when I lived in California. After two procedures to correct the issue, all looks good for this implant to last several more decades. Thanks so much Dr. Baker for all your help. And thanks to all of the staff who were so helpful explaining what was needed.


 

 


Everyone with the Implant and Periodontal Clinic are excellent at what they provide their patients. Dr. Baker, reception staff, his assistants, and Tara in billing are pleasant, knowledgeable, patient, and professional in all aspects. Dr. Baker’s ebullience during procedures helps make each individual visit go quickly and efficiently. While I hope another implant isn’t needed, if one is, the Implant and Periodontal Clinic will get my repeat business.

 


I highly recommend Dr. Baker! I felt well taken care of and in good hands.

3 implants for future crowns. Dr. Baker and the staff were all very professional and friendly. The procedure went very smoothly. The only discomfort was the numbing shots, but there's no getting around that! I highly recommend Dr. Baker's practice!


 


I had to take my 85 year old mother there for two different procedures, and they handled her such care! They always found the least invasive procedure to give her the maximum benefit. I would recommend!

 


 


Dr. Baker is a "gas" even without the Nitrous Oxide!  I ended up having to have TWO molar teeth extracted within a month of each other; one using NO and one with just Novocain.  Both went smoothly as did adding the posts for the implants.  The office staff is "five star" as well being warm and receptive, very helpful in making sure I got the most of my insurance benefits, etc., and putting me at ease before each procedure.  I highly recommend Dr. Baker and his staff if you need this type of service.

Dr. Baker is fantastic! They squeezed me in as a new patient when I had a tooth that was killing me. Dr. Baker and his team took good care of me! The process of doing the implant was easier than I expected and I didn't experience any pain after. I hope I don't need to do this again but if I do have the need again in the future he's the first one I'd call.

2 implants with subsequent crowns over the course of several years. During this time I always felt confident in the professionalism and talent of Dr Baker and the staff. My procedures went well and with minimal stress. I would highly recommend without hesitation this clinic.

Dr Baker, this guy..I highly recommend him and his staff.

I had an implant put in and I had a great experience despite having to lose a tooth and put an implant in. The Staff was awesome and Dr Baker was the best. He knows what he is doing. He even has a great sense of humor which goes a long way. End result was, mission accomplished with no pain and to be honest, I had almost forgotten it was even there when Donna called for my one year checkup. If there was a perfect implant experience I got it and I'm grateful.

 

 


 Dr. Baker and his staff have done a fantastic job for me and my teeth! I've been working with them for several years to fix my dental issues, and every person has been friendly and caring. Thanks everyone!

So happy with Dr.Baker and his staff.Its been a year journey,  I had a fractured root canal so I went to Dr.Baker, that day got me out of pain with that tooth and 2 implants. He worked with my dentist, successfully have 3 implants and a bridge. I would recommend Dr.Baker he works quickly,  Support staff is great..

 

 

 

I have had three implants over the past eight years. Quality and comfort are important here and I appreciated that. They have a very caring staff. Over the years I have noticed that they have kept up to date on technology, training and equipment.

 

  


  

 

 

Dr. Baker and the staff at the Implant and Periodontal Clinic did a tremendous job with my gum grafts. They are all experienced and efficient. Plus everyone there is very pleasant, making my appointments enjoyable as well (which never hurts when you're getting dental work done)! I would recommend this clinic and intend to reach out to them for my future periodontal needs.

Dr Baker, his assistants and staff are absolutely amazing. They always tell you exactly what they are doing so that you are on board with your treatment. They are always interested in you as a person as well. You know exactly where you stand financially. Dr Baker is just the best and I would absolutely recommend him.



I broke off an upper front tooth(#10).  The root had to be pulled.  It was a piece of cake.  Painless during and after the procedure.   An implant anchor was screwed into the bone and allowed to grow around it.  I took the advised antibiotics and maybe two advils once.  A few weeks later it was ready to be fitted for the new crown.  The hardest part was waiting for the grow in period.  And that wasn't a problem.  All in all; was it hard?  Somewhere between eating soft ice cream and chewing marshmallows.  Baker's got you covered.

I was referred here after not going to the dentist for 10 years. Dr. Baker and Ali have been amazing. I typically don't like dentists but they have made my experiences tolerable. The graft turned out perfect and the quartly cleanings are really helping me keep my oral health in check.

I was referred to Dr Baker and came to him with high hopes of resolving a long time problem I was having. Not only did he put me at ease, but the procedure was completely seamless. Each time I am in contact with either the office staff or staff or the doctor, I am in awe of their ability to make me feel like their only patient. Nowadays, this task is not an easy undertaking in the medical community, but through friendly email reminders, courteous calls, and the Dr himself remembering details of our previous conversation - this team has achieved a higher level of care.. Highly recommended!

  


After going through several dentist in the greater Bellingham, WA area, I found that Dr Baker and his staff got it right. First, asking what I was expecting from my appointment. Then, explaining what can be done. And lastly, listening to me and my requests. Thank you for doing exactly what you said and being so upfront.



All the staff from the receptionist, the bookkeeper, the dental assistant and Dr. Baker were friendly and professional. They gave me information beforehand so I knew what to expect and had a packet of information for me to take home home post-op. I was very nervous about the surgery and the dental assistant helped put me at ease and was very calming.


Friendly staff and great service! My implant is the best looking tooth in my mouth! Just had my one year check up and it looks like it will last another 50 years. Thank you Dr. Baker!


 

I highly recommend David Baker DDS MSD, he is very skilled and Personable.
He takes time to explain what he is doing, and gives you time to ask questions.

I have had 2 implants placed with no problems.
Prior to the second implant Dr. Baker expertly removed a fractured molar in no time.
From previous experiences I know that is no easy feat.

No procedure is without discomfort, but he gets pretty darn close to it.

Dr. Baker and his staff are so great - Dr. Baker explains everything along the way, he is to the point but does it with finesse and he listens. I would highly recommend him to anyone.



 

Being at Dr. Baker's office was a wonderful experience for implants and I would recommend him and his team because they make you feel like family.

 

 

Dr.Baker and staff are the best. I've flown and driven up from Arizona just for my appointments.

 



 
 
 Everything ran very smoothly from the office girls too the financial department too Dr. Baker,s assistants.Everyone is very friendly and make you feel very comfortable .You know where you stand financially and how things will work. Dr. Baker runs the best office I have ever had the pleasure being in!!The results were great!! One very happy patient. You are All the best. Thank-you so so much!!!Sincerely Sherry Wilder

 


  

 

I fractured my bicuspid on my 65th Birthday:( I was beyond upset! I was a mental basket!!! I had worked in the Dental Profession for over 30 years and this was not suppose to happen to me! Lose a tooth !!!! No way!! Dr. Baker assured me it would be fine. And in time after the healing I was. Now a year later my implant and new crown are still great! Thank you Dr. Baker office



 

 Everything went smooth and easy healing process. Well taken care of. Thank you!!


 

I had always wanted to get an implant and my Dentist said that Dr. Baker was one of the best and he trusted him to do good work. That was all the recommendation I needed and he turned out to be absolutely correct. The appointments were fast, informative and simple. The surgery part was virtually pain free and very simple.


 

Best service ever! When my dentist sent them my referral they promptly called me to schedule a consultation. Dr Baker clearly explained everything and they even ran it thru my insurance already which was very helpful. Everyone working here is so nice and caring. Dr Baker personally called me on a Saturday evening (day after my procedure) to check in on me and I received a card and nice chocolate bar in the mail wishing me a speedy recovery. I've never received such amazing service before!



 

Dr. Baker was excellent to work with to resolve a bad situation. When an infection happens on your tooth root, you want it fixed ASAP. Dr. Baker's office got me in the same day and worked to ease the pain. The subsequent implant and crown feels natural and secure.


Nice staff, and a Dr that you never want to see but glad he is good at his job and gives you a straight diagnosis. I recommend them if you need work done.


  

 

I Came in with a large issue of receding gum line on the top right, after Dr Baker explained the procedure I agreed to have the gum graft and they were amazing thru the whole procedure. Dr Baker was fast and extremely accurate, he even called me the next night PERSONALLY to make sure I was doing ok. I highly highly recommend Dr Baker if you need any work done


It is unheard off for a specialist to call his patient on the weekend evening and check on their status. I was shocked when I got a phone call from Dr. Baker personally to check on my status after my tooth extraction. Dr. Baker dental team is amazing, I would give 10 stars if I am allowed to.

Outstanding group of professionals! Everyone in the office is consistently upbeat, supportive, and extremely knowledgeable. I am very fortunate to have this team helping me with my dental needs. .............Wallace

This was a great experience. Came in to do a crown lengthening and was so pleased with the experience that I had him put in an implant for me as well. Both he and the staff were very friendly and took the time to explain every step of the process. They always made sure that i was comfortable. Would recommend them to everyone I know.


I had three dental put in by Dr. Baker. My experience with Dr. Baker and his staff was fantastic. I, like many others, have a fear of any and all dental work. He made me feel safe and secure. Dr. Baker answered all of my questions, was very thorough, easy to talk to, funny and honest. He made me feel comfortable immediately. Excellent "bedside manner". The procedure itself was quick and painless. The evening after my procedure, Dr. Baker called to check on me. T...



Dr.Baker has the great skills and wonderful staffs to help me finishing my multiple implants. I am able to live with confident and smile on the face with my new implant with everyday of my life. Thank you so much for such a caring doctor and heart warming staffs during and after my procedures.



(I have years of dental patient experiences in various cities Dr. Baker's office and staff are the best. And, when I feel I have an emergency, they get me fit in right away the same day. I highly recommend Dr. Baker and Implant and Periodontal Clinic.



Dr. Baker is fantastic. Informative, concise, skilled...worth it. If you have teeth problems, don't wait to get diagnosed and treated. I waited for months and started to feel constantly tired, and got colds and flu because of the toxins releasing into my body. My energy level shot up since I finally had done what needed to be done!



Thank you Dr. Baker, My front two teeth have been a blessing, and it has been 7 years having total success with your in-office procedures. The whole experience was rewarding and beneficial to have my two front teeth back; Thank you Jesus, for allowing Dr. Baker and Dr. Haubrich to learn and practice dental work, through there team work my dental procedure was a success.
