Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Smiles All Around
This visit was for my semi annual check and teeth cleaning. My hygienist was Jessica. She was first rate. Polite, professional, positive. A great experience all around. I have been a patient of this office for at least 14 years, and always have had a very positive experience.

Hands down, the best dental practice in Wilmington
I’ve been a patient for 40+ years. Dr Tibbetts is the best. His exams are very thorough, he’s very patient and answers all questions. My hygienist, Jess, is wonderful. The entire office staff is very professional and friendly.

Excellence Above & Beyond in Dentistry
This practice without question has been my go to for decades. From an early decade when a bridge tooth installed elsewhere needed a creative and permanent fix, they delivered. For all 3 plus decades, consistent high quality care has always been the standard. It’s remarkable to find technical excellence and a consistent sincere personal human touch from all of their team. From a recent emergency, there was no hesitation to get me in faster than I thought would be possible. We are blessed to have this level of dentistry practice. And all my local grown children use this practice with complete satisfaction! We are all unique but if one is looking for a new source, this practice is absolutely worth a look. You may end up being very pleased you found them!

Best dentist in the truck-state area!
I’ve been a patient of Dr T for over 30 years. I’m 51 and wouldn’t think of going anywhere else, and my sister in law is a dentist, also! From the moment you enter his office, you’re always warmly welcomed and greeted by his front office staff. Yes, my hygienist (Jess) is meticulous, but the Doc is why I rave about the practice! Dr T is the epitome of a medical professional. He listens closely to any concerns you might have. He spends a surprisingly abundant amount of time listening and conversing with his patients. (me) I look forward to seeing Dr Tibbetts and his staff every 6 months. I have referred several friends & family members to him as well. The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree! Dr Russell Tibbetts’ son is also practicing at the office. I’ve seen Dr Scott the several times when “big doc” Tibbetts was out, and Dr Scott is great too. Because of the Dr Russell Tibbetts knowledge, professionalism, and personality, I’d NEVER consider going anywhere else.

Great dental work
Appointments are always very worthwhile. The two week in advance reminder and the day before reminder are helpful. Julie always gives helpful tips on areas to concentrate on when brushing teeth. Dr. Tibbetts does really good dental work especially on major work like crowns, bridges, etc. Thoughtful follow up call after major work. Helpful and supportive staff.

Best practice in delaware
I have been going to dr Tibbetts since he was a young dentist with DrThomas in the late seventies. I have always been petrified of dentist as a kid but once I went to Dr Tibbetts that all went away. 40 years of the best service without pain!

The best their is!
My wife has been going to Dr. Tibbetts for years and always highly recommends his practice to everyone. I have been seeing him for a few years now - after carefully neglecting my teeth for a while. Dr. Tibbetts brought my smile back to life. He is the best their is. He is a great doctor and he is an even stronger communicator. He makes you feel comfortable and he tells you exactly what he is doing in terms everyone can understand. He makes you feel at ease and has a good sense of humor. His entire staff is highly skilled and professional. They all make you feel welcomed and comfortable.
