Dana Manchester DMD - Lompoc, California

Phillip Houseknecht

My initial visit with Dr. Manchester was the most comprehensive dental exam I have ever had. He demonstrated a considerable expertise of not only my teeth, but jaw joints and muscles as well as (jaw and teeth related) contributing factors that could affect sleep and even headaches. I am very optimistic for the care that I'll receive. Also, a shout out to the staff who were very nice and were considerate of a headache I was experiencing at the time of my visit. Highly recommended!

Dr. Manchester has been my dentist for many years. I've mostly had routine dental care and I've always been pleased with the care and attention I've received. I've recently had a dental problem that isn't so routine and will require Dr. M and another dental specialist to repair the problem. As always, I've been treated with courtesy and kindness and Dr. Manchester has taken care to explain to me what needs to be done.

I appreciate the entire staff and everyone's kindness and commitment to make my experience, and all the other patients' experience, a gentle, stress free time. This is a dental practice that has heart!

Dr. Manchester is always very knowledgeable and thorough. His office is always professional, helpful, and polite. I felt very safe going in for a cleaning and an exam. Their office is doing all the right things to make patients safe during this pandemic. Don't hesitate to make your appointment!

Dr. Manchester is by far the most thorough and meticulous dentist I've ever been to. As a new patient looking for a cleaning, I was also set up for an evaluation, both of which were covered under my insurance. My hygienist, Jackie, was very friendly and personable. She was quick and not painful at all. During my evaluation appointment I spent 1-1.5hrs with Dr. Manchester who completed a thorough health evaluation along with a complete history of my oral history and evaluation of my mouth including measuring every nook and cranny of my mouth. He even measured my gum recession and evaluated all of the glands and tissues in and around my mouth. I've never had a dentist look into these things before! He took pictures of my mouth, which he reviewed with me in another session where he addressed any other concerns or other findings he came across when reviewing my history, measurements, and photos. Dr. Manchester is also incredibly honest, out to do what is best for his patients. He felt that I would benefit from a mouth guard, but due to my only having 1 month left in the area, he declined to make it for me because he felt he would not be able to have enough time to make the necessary adjustments and an overall guard that he was proud of. I feel that any other dentist out to make a buck would have just pushed me into buying a guard no matter my timeframe. He even offered to recommend other dentists in the country with similar training as himself for when I did decide to purchase a mouth guard. I truly appreciated every aspect of this office. I highly recommend Dr. Manchester to anyone looking for a dentist in the area. I am considering coming all the way back to CA from out of state just to see him once a year!

Both my husband and I had a fear of going to the dentist but after finding and having service done by Dr Manchester and his staff we no longer have that fear. We have been going to them since the 90's. They truly care for their clients and will make them feel safe and comfortable.
