Dr. Taler has a unique ability to combine his vast knowledge of a variety of dental topics and his excellent clinical skills to treat patients with the best possible care in the dental community. I have worked alongside Dr. Taler on numerous challenging cases that most dentist would not dare to take on as a patient. I can honestly say that every case he has worked on he has delivered beyond expectations. Dr. Taler is more than deserving of this accolade.

Dr. Taler is a highly skilled and caring dentist. He focuses primarily on implant dentistry and cosmetic dentistry but has a family practice where he provides “traditional” general dentistry. His office has some of the most advanced technology in the area with 3D cone beam and laser treatment but more importantly is how much he genuinely cares for each and every person that walks into his office. Dr. Taler is both elite in skill and honest in character. I highly recommend him!

Dr Taler is a top notch general dentist. He is highly skilled in all aspects of dentistry but holds himself to the standard of a specialist. I would recommend Dr Taler to anyone for anything but I am confident his care is in the top 1% of all dental practitioners.
