Patient Review 1:

Not only is Dr. Hartel an outstanding dentist, but he is an amazing person as well. He is warm, funny, efficient, kind, gentle, and generous. Not only does he correct your dental problems, but he makes you feel like a member of his very large family. Not only is he a great dentist, but he has also done incredibly demanding mission work in places where most people would never go. Anyone I have ever recommended to him has been just as fond of him (as a dentist and a person) as I am. As for a the treatments I have had, Dr. Hartel has done two crowns for me. We met Dr. Hartel when my then teenage daughter was diagnosed with TMJ. He successfully treated her and she was never nervous or fearful of any procedure required because of Dr. Hartel's great people skills. She and I have continued to use Dr. Hartel as our dentist for over 20 years, and no one would be able to convince us to switch to another dentist for any reason. His work is far superior to the work I had performed by previous dentists. His cost is right in line with other dentists. His facilities are very comfortable, and his staff is outstanding. What more I can say but that I was extremely lucky the day I found Dr. Hartel as my dentist
Treatment Length with Dr. Hartel: 22 years.

Patient Review 2:

I've had general check-ups, treatment for cold sensitivity, a new "night guard" for my TMJ, and old fillings replaced. Dr. Hartel consistently does an excellent job with everything, is respectful and as pain-free as possible, and his front desk staff is excellent, friendly, professional, and help with insurance issues. Overall, I'd recommend Dr. Hartel to anyone without any hesitation. Although I don't have children, I would also point out that his office is very child-friendly.
About Hygienist: I use Ann. She is careful, precise, gentle, thorough, nice, and fun to talk to (she keeps me entertained when I can't talk). She is also very knowledgeable about the latest products, etc.
Treatment Length with Dr. Hartel: 6 years.

Patient Review 3:

Dr. Hartel AND his staff are really great to my family. The dental care is the best possible, the response rate is always fast, emergencies are taken care of quickly, and they're really great people. I am not one to take great care of my teeth and they never preach or over reach. They are always classy in their reminders of how I could do a better job at home care. I appreciate that. Mostly, its the great dental care. I just haven't found any better in 25 years here in Saint Louis. And Dr. Hartel, if you are reading this, I cannot tell you enough how after Merediths accident, you saved her smile. I am eternally grateful.
Treatment Length with Dr. Hartel: 10 years plus.

Dr. Hartel impresses my husband and I with his straight forward approach. He does not do procedures without careful thought, andnot until he feels a prodedure is truly needed.

Wonderful! Great rapport with patients, very thorough. Office staff very helpful. Very accomodating in emergency situations.

Patient Review 10:

An excellent dentist in every way. He does an excellent job in preventative dentistry, because I have a problem with plaque buildup. He has also extracted two wisdom teeth and installed two crowns which blended perfectly with my other teeth.
About Hygienist: Dr. Hartel has several hygienists, but for five years I have used Carolyn Perlongo, who does an excellent job of removing plaque and protecting my gums. She is gentle and quite interested in my welfare.
Treatment Length with Dr. Hartel: 20 years.

Dr. Hartel is a fantastic dentist who knows his stuff. He is very patient-oriented and works hard to ensure a positive experience, physically and mentally. He has a great sense of humor that makes a trip to the dentist something to look forward to rather than dread. I highly recommend him to anyone in search of a great dentist!
About Hygienist: Robin is a wonderful hygienist. I have known her the longest. She does an excellent cleaning job and explains thoroughly how to care for your teeth. She, too, has a great personality which makes for a pleasant experience. My daughter loves her!

Patient Review 13:

I have gone to Dr. Hartel for my dental work since shortly before he established his practice. I trust him implicitly, and feel much affection for him. Visiting his office is, for me, like dropping in one of my family members. I go at least four times a year, and would not go to another dentist unless he was no longer in practice. There is no sense in my gushing and going on and on about Dr. Hartel...............but I could easily, because I certainly am that enthusiastic about him and his dentistry.
Treatment Length with Dr. Hartel: +/- 20 years, maybe more; since shortly before he established his practice..

Patient Review 14:

Dr. Hartel is one of the most competent, professional, and skilled dentists I've ever gone to. He is very thorough, takes concerns seriously, and has been successful at treating every problem I've had (including ongoing changes in my tooth sensitivity). He's been honest about what I do and don't need, such as only replacing old fillings he really thought had problems. He and his entire staff are also very friendly and easy to work with, and the office decor has a theme in each room (e.g., baseball) that gives you something to focus your attention on during the dental procedures. Overall, an A+ rating.
About Hygienist: Hygienist is so great that I now set my appointments so I can always have the same one that I first worked with.
Treatment Length with Dr. Hartel: 5 years.

My mother, sister and brother-in-law have gone to Dr. Hartel for at least 10 years. When I returned from the military, he became my dentist as well and knew all about me and my daughter through my mother's stories through the years. The hygienists are super nice and it's like walking into the middle of a happy family. He's a great dentist and I love sparring with him when I'm not getting my teeth cleaned!
Treatment Length with Dr. Hartel: 5 1/2 years.

I am 57, and have moved 7 or 8 times, so have been to many dentists.I feel very comfortable coming to Dr. Hartel and he and his staff always put me at ease (and not with drugs!).His manner is terrific. I suffer from none of the "pre-dentist visit " nerves.Thanks, Doctor!And your rooms, while not exactly spa-like are definitely entertaining.Christine R

I have bad teeth and when my previous dentist retired it was traumatic. I was lucky to get a referral to Dr. Hartel. I have spent many hours with him in the past year and he is pleasant, patient and very upbeat and a talented doctor. I have a new lower bridge in the front that looks better than my old teeth! It was very complex (with an implant holding it in) and he did an excellent job.
