North Oaks Dental is fantastic. They always make me feel really comfortable. The receptionists are super friendly, they always ar very welcoming, always remind me when I need to come to appointments. Dr. Daboul always takes care of me, makes me feel really comfortable with all the work that I needed to get done on this guy here. You know what i really like about this practice is that they really care about me and they want to make sure I’m comfortable and I’m not in pain and they’re always kind of checking in on you. They make you comfortable with music in the room for you. They ask you what kind of music you would like to listen to, which makes it always a little more comfortable. Then they always are kind of just go above and beyond making sure that I know when I’m supposed to be here or just things like that.
I was having some pain, some oral pain in my mouth and they were able to just kind of diagnose what was the issue, the trouble issues. They were able to kind of walk me through step by step and kind of the plan and place and they were able to lay it out solid for me where I was able to kind of chip away the things I needed to get done. Then really explaining the impact of the issues how they can worsen and they help me realize the importance of the steps that we had to make sure that my oral health was better. They really do a good job of explaining and laying a timeline out for improvement with that. Go see all the friendly faces at North Oaks Dental. They’ll take care of you and make you feel comfortable. That’s all I could ask out of a dentist.

I didn’t see a dentist for a long time, kind of neglected my teeth for a big part of my life and they were good with kind of coming up with like a plan. You need to do A, B, C and D and that’ll get you on track. Then I got a real bad toothache on a Sunday and the choice was an emergency room or come here. I ended up coming here and I was very happy they were open and available on a Sunday. Team’s experienced and I’m comfortable working with them.Yeah I would just say for me it’s convenience of where it is and again staff is very nice and doctors seem to do a good job and know what they’re doing.
I love this practice because the staff is absolutely friendly, and Dr. Daboul is always there to answer any questions and is very willing to go the extra mile for you as an individual, and sees you as a person, and is willing to help you with any needs that you have.
I wanted to get my teeth to become perfect, per se, and I wanted them to really become what I want myself to portray. I want my teeth to be as very well tight, nice, clean, white as possible because that’s how I wanna carry myself, and that’s how I want, seeing it’s the first impression people see, I want that to be a good impression. When I had gaps in my teeth, and I was worried that that could set me apart, especially when taking photos for graduations and et cetera, I wanted to make sure that my smile stood out, and so that’s where I sought out orthodontics.
It was painless, it was smooth, and if I had any questions, I felt comfortable calling and asking and making the additional appointment. It was a very smooth process. Smooth is the best word I could say ’cause there was no hiccups. There was nothing. Everything happened the way it was supposed to happen, and it worked out very well, if I say so myself.

North Oaks Dental is a family place. I’m a family man. I have four children, and Dr. Daboul treats everybody like family. And you see the staff here, and they’re fantastic. They’re very polite and professional, and they actually treat you like family. So it’s a nice feeling when you come in, especially when it’s a dentist and orthodontist business, that you want to come in, you want to be comfortable and be treated in a nice relaxing manner, and that’s one thing that they have down pat.
Initially when they first opened up, we live in the neighborhood, and my wife are very active in the city of Royal Oak, as well. We saw that the practice was coming, so we were curious. We were satisfied with our current dentist, but not 100%. I called up and I just wanted to find out a little bit more information about the dentist that was here.
I met with Dr. Daboul before I even made an appointment, and he made time for me. We sat and chat, and as soon as you started talking to him, again, he has a gift when it comes to people. And it’s a passion. I truly believe that he has a passion for his occupation.
We all agree. There’s six of us that all agree 100% that this is our place that we need to come for something so important with teeth. My wife and I both agree that teeth are very important, especially for our four sons. And when we come here, we know we’re taken care of. We’re treated like family, and even down to some of the service that I’ve received specifically, Dr. Daboul’s actually called me after hours to check on me. You don’t get that in many practices, especially with dentists and stuff. And just to see how I’m doing and how I’m feeling.

I came to Dr. Daboul, and I just immediately felt that connection that I had with my dentist over all those years, that just really intimate atmosphere of the dentist office. You feel like everyone knows you from the second you walk in the door. And so I was really happy with the switch. Dr. Daboul is amazing with my daughter. He is just so gentle with her, and is always joking with her, and really has a connection with the young kids. My daughter’s four and a half, and she’s been coming with me since she was two and half. She has had a couple of appointments of just her own for teeth cleanings. And he just is really at ease with her.
You can tell he has kids, and he’s a dad himself. And he gets her involved also. He lets her handle the tools safely, but she likes doing that, you know, pretend like she’s cleaning mom’s teeth, too. I love coming here, because everyone’s just so friendly, and it really feels like a family here. They’re excited to see us when we come. I usually come with my daughter. We have appointments back to back. And so it’s just, the kids love it here. My son will be having his first appointment soon, but he’s been coming with us to see what the dentist is all about. So it’s just a fun place, friendly people.

I love coming to this particular practice because they’re very professional here and I like the way that they treated me during my procedure. It felt very safe here so I really like that aspect.
I had a tooth that was fused to my jaw which was, I guess, they haven’t really heard of that before. There’s not many cases of that, so they took that out and I was able to get an implant in, and it pretty much saved the whole bottom part of my mouth because if I wouldn’t have done that all the teeth would have just started growing in together and it would have been bad. So coming here, getting an implant done, that was very helpful for my smile.
It went a lot smoother than I thought. When I first got in, you know, I was pretty nervous but again, here’s another reason why I say that I feel very safe coming here is because I was very nervous before the surgery or the implant, and you know, the doctor came in and he used a very calm voice, and he was, you know, able to give me pain medicine and just explain the whole process to me so that I kind of knew what I was going to be going through.
The doctors seem like they care, and the staff is very professional. I like that. It makes me feel, again, it makes me feel safe. It makes me want to come here.

So I have an adult tooth that’s still in my gums. So I had done Invisalign elsewhere. I was like 18 years old, so I was really young. Went somewhere by my house. And I needed Invisalign to create enough space to get a crown above the baby tooth. I had met with so many orthodontists and dentists, and everyone was just telling me, “You’re too old now. You can’t really pull the tooth down, and yada, yada, yada.”
So finally, I came to North Oaks and talked to Dr. Daboul. He was so kind, so straightforward. He told me, “This is your best option. Don’t think of anything else.” Made me feel comfortable, and instantly, I trusted him and I was like, “Okay, well, the space is there. Do what you have to do, basically.”
The experience was great. I think I’ve had the crown now for like 10 years maybe, maybe a little less, give or take. He shaved down my baby tooth, and he popped it in. And it’s been solid ever since. I’d recommend this practice for everything, but especially for crowns, because like I said, mine has lasted so long. I have never had an issue with it. He checks it all the time. There’s no, like, signification of me needing another one anytime soon, which is amazing.

Well, yeah. I never had braces growing up unfortunately. So I knew as I got older that I have to fix this, because all my friends had nice teeth and I needed to fix my smile up too. And I started caring a lot more about my dental health. Just from there I kind of started seeing that it’s time for me to finally take action and even though I’m a little older, I was 22 at the time, I just felt like it was the right time. And I did that and looking back on it now, I’m just so happy that I did, because it gives me more confidence now. I have a nicer smile and you know, my teeth look like the way they should and it’s just healthier too.
I felt at home here and this was the place I wanted to be. Dr. Essayan was my orthodontist and he was just such a knowledgeable guy and I just knew that he was the one that was going to help get me to where I want to be. I don’t really always feel like I’m in a dentist’s office or something, I’m just here with like friends, I guess you’d say. He just let me know from the beginning he wasn’t out there just to get another customer, he was very open and honest. He cared more about being real and honest with me than anything and I really respected that.
North Oaks Dental is definitely the place to be. It’s very open, it’s very honest and they’re very loyal to their customers. And I have honestly recommended all of my friends, not just some of them, all my friends. Even if it’s not for braces, just for a cleaning. [inaudible 00:01:19] I always recommend this location specifically, because they are great here and I cannot recommend them enough. If I had to do it all over again, I would 100% come back here and do it all over again.

I love Dr. Daboul. My husband makes fun of me and he says I’m always here, which I am because within this line you have to come into the office a lot. I’ve never had a bad experience with a dentist, but I looked around when I was going dentist-to-dentist. I just didn’t feel 100% comfortable with anybody, but Dr. Daboul is awesome. He will answer any question you might have, and he also just takes the time to explain exactly what he’s going to be doing so you feel really comfortable, you really understand what’s going to happen and what the process is going to be like before you even get started.
It really seems like he tries to keep things updated. He always will tell me about, “I went to this conference or I learned more about this.” I think they take the time to really make sure that they’re keeping up with all the changes and I’m sure there’s a lot of them just like in any field.

Honestly, I love coming here because they make me feel comfortable. That’s the most important thing for me. And I used to hate when I used to come to get like fillings. I never used to let them numb me. And this is the first place that has ever made me feel comfortable with that. And honestly, it was so easy and I just love the atmosphere.
He makes you feel so comfortable. That sets it apart from everywhere else. I feel like at other practices, it was just like, okay, I’m doing my job, you’re another patient, and you’re out. They don’t treat me that way here. They treat me like family, honestly, from day one. He has a really great personality. Like I said, he makes everyone feel like they’re family. He will not do anything until he knows and feels that you’re comfortable with it. And I love that. And he’s a little bit of a jokester, which I like because that’s my personality too. But when it’s time to get serious, he’s serious. And quality of care has been a 10 in every aspect. Whether it’s me getting a cleaning, a filling, an implant, things that I was terrified of, the care in this office is undescribable, honestly.
You know how you feel a vibe with people or places? You just feel that this vibe, they’re very family oriented in themselves. It’s like just because a dentist has an assistant doesn’t mean that they’re the only two. They all help each other out and you feel that when you come here. You feel that. You feel that they all make you feel comfortable whether I’m with Daboul and it’s his assistant or if it’s another assistant. No matter what, someone’s taking care of you and you never feel like you’re waiting too long or you’re not being seen by someone. So I recommend it in that way and just honestly with the vibe in here.

I have not came back for the same reason twice. Okay, each job that’s been performed from both root canals to both cavities have been filled, I’ve not had any issues, no pain after what was told to me. That was the biggest thing, you know, you have to go back and do it over again. And that goes back to me saying of how thorough he is with his patients.
I don’t remember the first time more to a point where that I was in a lot of pain and we almost did not handle it. It’s kind of emotional for me because I haven’t had somebody, you know, really look at me like that and say, at my worst time, I was most vulnerable with my mouth like that, and told me what could happen if I did not get it done. No, I want all my teeth. But just the infection, I just…I mean, the pain was unbearable.
Like I said, he looked at me with really good confidence and said, “I’m going to handle you, I’m going to handle this for you. Don’t worry about it.” And he did. He actually had one of his staff members call and check on me after the procedure was done about two, three days later. And that was very big, that was very big and different.

I recommend them because everybody wants to have somebody confident when dealing with your mouth. From day one, he asked me that, “Why you so cool, man? Why you so quiet?” I give the honor to my mother because she’s in some pain right now. She has root canal as well. So she told me, “You go first, you know, and see what’s going on.” You know, I was, like, “All right, Mama, I did it.” Came back and told her that this man is amazing. Fell in love.
She said, “Ashton, you were right. The man is patient and he handles you with care and a look of confidence because he’s thorough.” And ever since then, we have not turned back to turn around. And she has two of the cavities as well. So she would be on her way in here as well. But it is something amazing because she doesn’t like pain and I don’t either.
And for me to get her something that’s worth more than money to make her feel better is more than anything. And as a mama’s boy, you know, it’s priceless things that we can do so many times. And I feel like that is one of the priceless things that I could have done for her to give her a reference on something good for our family.

That morning I had bit down into the steak a little hard. I had chipped my tooth and I had opened up my nerve in my mouth, but I did not know what it was. My sister is kind of my sweet angel. So the first person who I call when something happens, “Oh, baby.” So what she did was she had Googled a medical emergency and Dr. Shimoun’s office had came up. She said my brother then chipped his tooth. He didn’t…he crying and whining.
So that medical emergency, she walked me in. He looked at me, like, “Ashton, I’m gonna take care of you. Don’t worry about it.” His confidence, honestly, is what drew me closer to him as a man. He looked me in my eyes, came down and said, “Don’t worry about it, you’re in good hands.” Ever since that day, it’s been hell and high water for me, but he has dealt with me with gentle hands and a little confidence when I was at my most vulnerable, you know, with my mouth in it, because I love to eat.
He understood me. He looked me in my eyes, shook my hand and told me, “If there’s anything else I can do for you, please let us know.” And that went from me to both my sisters and my mother. And I was, like, “Man, thank you so very much, from two root canals to two cavities to just a mental breakdown period.” He looked at me, he said, “Don’t worry about it. I’m gonna handle everything for you. Don’t worry about it.” I just… He just said, “Don’t worry about it.” His confidence was just out the window. And I was, like, “My man got it.” And we came and that was that.

Every time I come here, you know, I get a cleaning and they make sure I have my next appointment scheduled before I leave, which I like to because, you know, you have to go every six months to get it done to keep that hygiene. And yeah, they’ve done a couple of cavities for me too, which I love. It looks like I don’t even have a cavity in my mouth, and I really appreciate that too because no one wants to smile or laugh and you can see it in the back or something.
And I like looking at myself in the mirror because my teeth are so nice from coming to this place. He makes it very comfortable for me to be here. I can be myself around him and explain to him what I want done with my teeth. And he’s very good with explaining to me what he can do and what he can’t. And he does tell me the consequences that I could get if I do want something done. And I like that he explains that to me too because a lot of doctors won’t and they’ll just go ahead and do it. And then after you’re in pain or whatever, and he likes to tell me what could happen to prevent it. So I like that a lot about him.

I love that when I come in here, they treat you like family. You know, everyone is so sweet to you. Everyone comes up to me and asks me how my day is and they know my name. And I love that, like, everybody knows my name and they go by my first name when I walk into the office and everything. And it just makes me feel good because not everybody likes coming to the dentist. So they make it very at ease when you walk in here. And I really recommend this place to everybody.
They make me feel very comfortable because before I start anything, he explains to me what he’s going to do. And even during the procedure, he lets me know when he’s about to be done. He asks me if I’m comfortable the whole time. And it helps me a lot with my anxiety because, you know, you’re sitting there and most dentists won’t tell you when they’re almost done and you’re thinking when you’re gonna be done, or they won’t tell you what they’re doing next. And I really like how he tells me step-to-step what he’s doing because it makes me feel more comfortable knowing what’s happening in my mouth.
Before I leave the chair, he’ll have me look into the mirror and look at my teeth and make sure everything feels good in my mouth, helping bite down, make sure my bite’s good and stuff. Like, I do get a feeling, he’ll ask me if it feels good back there before I leave. And I love that a lot about him because he wants us to leave happy and feeling good. He doesn’t want us in pain, and the quality is great. I love the quality.

And it helps me a lot with my anxiety because, you know, you’re sitting there and most dentists won’t tell you when they’re almost done and you’re thinking when you’re gonna be done, or they won’t tell you what they’re doing next. And I really like how he tells me step-to-step what he’s doing because it makes me feel more comfortable knowing what’s happening in my mouth.
Before I leave the chair, he’ll have me look into the mirror and look at my teeth and make sure everything feels good in my mouth, helping bite down, make sure my bite’s good and stuff. Like, I do get a feeling, he’ll ask me if it feels good back there before I leave. And I love that a lot about him because he wants us to leave happy and feeling good. He doesn’t want us in pain, and the quality is great. I love the quality.
I wasn’t a big fan of dentists. I’ve had a lot of bad experience in my past. And I was starting to become more customer-facing with my current employer and even my previous employer to where I wanted to have a better smile, and that was the one thing that I was lacking of is I never could have it. North Oaks kind of changed that for me completely because they took the portion that I saw every single day in the mirror that was chipping away, that was falling apart, and kind of made a brand new and kind of re-imaged myself into a more competent individual, which is great to have, especially when you’re dealing with clients.
The third dentist I actually went to and trying to get a quote on it, and the reason for it was I wanted to do my research to understand what actually needed to be done. What they did that other dentists couldn’t do was actually walk through the step-by-step process and help me understand why doing this now, why putting in the extra money a little bit in the beginning for the amount of work that was done in my mouth would improve my quality of life. That alone was probably the biggest thing that sold me at North Oaks was that they were willing to show me what it’s going to bring in a confidence level. That was what was really helpful.
I asked for a different mirror because I thought that one was broken for a second because that guy was way too good-looking. So honestly, that was it. It was night or day. Like I said, they showed me the process during the middle of it and just seeing the transition of it. Once I saw that last one, I still couldn’t believe it was me. Actually, to be honest, I still get it day by day that I look in the mirror and I’m like, “I don’t regret what I did at all.”

Coming from a person that rarely went to the dentist for, like, the past decade, it was as tough, to be honest. They walked me through every single thing. They showed me what they were doing. They took the step-by-step process, and also introduced me to the technology that they were using that was going into my mouth, which is amazing. It’s scary if you’re not used to it. And it does bring up some anxiety, but they kind of show you and walk you through it. They, “Hey, look, we’re experienced this. We’ve done our research.” And that, I think, is what soothed me a little bit, because I’m more of a data analytical guy. I like to see what and why people do what they do. And North Oaks has been able to provide that to me every single day that I’ve come here.
Technology is forefront in my mind. And from what I’ve talked to the staff about and just the progress that I’ve seen off it, they do their research. They’re not prehistoric. They’re not trying to just, you know, not learn new things. They always are trying to advance their technology, which is great. And that was one thing that super sold me on it.
The second one is the staff. I honestly wouldn’t go to a dentist if it wasn’t for the staff behind it. And it’s not just the dentist itself. It’s everybody that you talk to. Everybody that’s on the phone, they’re willing to work with you, get you rescheduled in. It’s an amazing experience all in all.
