Becky has been driving across state lines for almost three decades—traveling from Alabama to Atlanta, Georgia—to visit Dr. Hugh Flax and his team at Flax Dental.
Why?
Because in her words: “I could spend the same money and have less quality work—and I know that from experience.”
It Started with One Smile—and a Lot of Silver Fillings
Back in 1997, Becky was just launching her career. She was a recent graduate, ready to enter the professional world. But something was holding her back.
Her smile.
“I grew up on a farm. We didn’t have fluoride in the water,” she shared. “I had dental care, but my teeth just didn’t look or feel the way I wanted.”
She had silver fillings everywhere and worried about losing her teeth early. That’s when she found Dr. Flax in Atlanta—and she’s been coming back ever since.
“You asked me what I wanted to achieve, and I said I wanted a better smile. You laid out a plan that got me here—today.”
Precision, Planning, and No Surprises
Becky remembers the first visit clearly: a detailed consultation, clear plan of action, and honest expectations. That level of clarity made her trust the process—and the dentist.
She emphasized how Flax Dental prioritizes transparency—with no billing surprises, no rushed appointments, and zero rework.
“I never walk out of the office with anything unfinished. We’ve never had to revisit the same issue twice. Ever.”
She attributes this to Dr. Flax’s perfectionism and the supportive, organized team behind him. From front-desk check-ins to follow-ups, Becky describes Flax Dental’s entire Atlanta dental office as “a place of professionalism and perfection.”
Relationships That Span Decades
It’s not just the dental work—it’s the people. Over 30 years, Becky has built relationships with the Flax Dental staff. That kind of consistency is rare.
“They care. They’re kind. And they’re consistent. You build trust with that.”
This relationship-first approach is part of why patients keep coming back—even when it means crossing state lines.
A Smile That Changed More Than Her Teeth
Becky never lacked confidence. But having a smile she’s proud of gave her an added boost—especially in a career working with the public.
“People comment on my smile. It’s a vote of confidence. It’s more than just how it looks—it’s health, too.”
Through proactive dental planning, Becky has kept almost all of her original teeth, something she once feared wouldn’t be possible.
“I got great care, great teeth, and a great smile. And I have a healthy mouth.”
