The staff and the doctor was very informative and nice. I'm so happy I found them for me and my children
It was my first appointment with them, but I had heard good things about them. And they were well-deserved. Great staff, great equipment, and took their time explaining everything. If you’re looking for a new dentist, I highly recommend them.
I had my second emergency dental appointment of 2026 yesterday. Both times, the team told me to start heading toward the office and assured me they would get me in right away. I've been coming to Clairpointe for years, and even in an emergency, I've always had full confidence in my dental team. Their responsiveness and care continue to reinforce why I trust them so much.
Clairpointe family dental is the best! Always great work and very wonderful people!
The BEST DENTAL HEALTH OFFICE! The staff are so nice and friendly they explain everything to you and always give you a heads up’s about what is covered by your insurance so you know what you need to prior to your procedure. The Dr’s are #1 in the area. I was referring to them by my neighbor as I was having a dental emergency and they took such great care of me that I had to make them my primary care dentist and I have been so grateful for their care. My annual cleaning was so painless and I couldn’t believe how caring she was with me making sure I was comfortable before and during the cleaning. I highly recommend them 100%
After one visit, I think I found my dentist for life. Everyone was super friendly and made me feel very comfortable. And I’m someone who absolutely dreads the dentist.
I went for my six month appointment today, to get a cleaning. I can’t help but smile when I enter this office... because all the staff is smiling while they greet you‼️ Everyone is very professional, incredibly kind, and this office runs on time‼️ PS. You will most likely catch me smiling on my way out‼️
Very welcoming and friendly staff.They made me feel like a VIP.
Great people!! Always friendly and professional!! AAAAA++++++ Dr. Gehlert is one of the nicest people I know!!
Dr. Rita has been my dentist at Clairpointe Dental for more than 20 years she's the best dentist I have ever seen or had. Emily is my dental hygienist she's fantastic right down to the last detail, and the staff just as good

What a fantastic dentist. From the second I walked in the door until I walked out, it was a 5 star A + experience
I drive over an hour just to see Dr. Reem, and she is absolutely worth it. She is by far the best dentist I have ever had. I used to have a lot of anxiety about going to the dentist, but from my very first visit she made me feel completely comfortable and at ease. Dr. Reem is incredibly welcoming, kind, patient, and genuinely caring. She takes the time to explain everything thoroughly, answers all of my questions, and never makes me feel rushed.<br><br>Her professionalism and attention to detail are unmatched, and you can tell she truly cares about her patients and their experience. The entire staff is friendly and accommodating, which makes every visit even better. Thanks to Dr. Reem, going to the dentist is no longer something I dread.

Nice clean place , friendly staff , pricing is competitive. Dr Neena did my first visit , very friendly and professional making sure I was comfortable. I needed a cleaning but the hygienist is many months out , so Dr Neena had some spare time and did my cleaning also. I would most definitely recommend this facility to anyone I know.
Dr.Rita and assoc. and staff are professional, kind and courteous. They are extremely helpful with scheduling and take all precautions to keep you and themselves safe. Love Lindsay the dental hygienist. When going for a cleaning it like catching up with old friends. Highly recommend Clairpointe Family Dental
My mother had her first appointment with Dr. Gehlert and her staff today. She is pleased with her experience and how kind everyone was to her. She looks forward to her future visits.
I have had strong concerns about finding a new dentist. Had my first appointment with Dr. Gehlert today. Could not have been more satisfied with my entire experience. The office is professional, but friendly. I have some knowledge of dentistry and was completely impressed with everyone in the office and the office environment.<br>I am so relieved to think I have found a new dentist in an office that I feel confident with.
Best dentist office ever!<br>They take their time & give honest advice. Much appreciated!!
On time and very professional, polite and thorough.
I had a very good experience that Clairpointe Family Dental! I am new to the area and did not yet established with a dentist until I had a problem. The staff over the phone were very kind and were able to get me in right away, before a holiday weekend. I did not have any long wait times when I got to the office. The staff and the doctor were extremely friendly for my whole visit. This was an excellent experience and I would recommend this to any new patient looking for a dentist to establish with!
I recently transferred to Clairpointe at the recommendation of a friend and could not be more pleased. I have severe dental anxiety and their entire team has been so welcoming and supportive. Wish I had made the move a few years ago.
I’ve been bringing my almost 11 year old since she was a baby and my 6 year old twins since they were babies. Lindsey has encouraged it from the beginning and because of this, my kids have all been successfully getting their teeth cleaned since they were 2!!! She lets them hold and use the water tool and sucker tool (not sure of proper names, sorry!) themselves and gives the tools silly names, so they happily sit there and let her do her thing! They have never shed a tear or asked not to go to the dentist. They have no fear of dentist appts thanks to her! All the staff are very friendly, patient, and gentle when interacting with my kids and myself. They give compliments to boost their self esteem. I drive 40 minutes to come to this office when there are more than 5 dentist offices within 5 minutes of my house. This office is the best!!!
The staff is awesome!<br>Always a pleasant experience!<br>Thank you!!
Love this place!! Great staff, doctors and hygienists. Thank you for taking care of my family.
It's always a pleasure going to the dentist when you have so many nice people working there ! I have been going there so long I think of all of you as friends. Thank you for always caring and knowing just what to do to keep me calm. 😀
Love this practice. Very kind staff at the front desk, hygienists and dentists. Highly recommend!

I experienced dental cleaning today from Jill at Clairpointe.<br>The office had a water shut off but Jill still did the job. I arrived early to see if I could get to another appointment i had, (my error). I was able to my other appointment and am grateful to Clairpointe. My teeth feel fabulous!
I used Microsoft Copilot to help me find a new dentist office after mine of 30+ years was acquired by a corporation and underwent too many changes that dissatisfied me. Clairpointe was the perfect landing spot for me. Clean, efficient environment with a very friendly and supportive staff. The amusing part about this place is that everyone has a beautiful smile. 😃
Dr. G is the best. Wonderful chair side manners. She cares about you as a patient.
My husband and I have been patients of this dental practice for over 20 years. We have had general cleanings, fillings, night guards and bridge work completed. It can be difficult to find a dental practice which you trust and that make you feel at ease. The Clairpointe staff from front and back office to clinical staff are friendly, efficient, trustworthy and excellent at their jobs. I couldn't imagine going anywhere else!
Very courteous from the start and made me feel very comfortable with the process
My boys love coming to the dentist for their regular cleanings. They go above and beyond to make them feel comfortable.
Nobody likes to go to the dentist... But if you get a great dentist it makes it much easier, Dr Gehlert at Clairpoint Dental in St Clair Shores is the very best. The staff is so caring and efficient. I wouldn't go anywhere else. Thank You all for your caring expertise over the years, I truly appreciate all you have done for me! Joyce Zube
Clairpointe family dental is the best! Always great work and very wonderful people!
Professional, friendly, caring, and compassionate staff, assistants, hygienists and doctors! I continue to use Clairpointe Family Dental for my dental exams and dental needs even though I now live 3.5 hours away.
Wonderful, genuine and caring staff and excellent service.
This is my place "not literally." I am 37 years old. Been coming here my whole life, my mom was a patient before I was born. These days, I live an hour away and still make the drive in for myself, wife and kids anytime one of us needs their services. Not only out of habit, but because they are good honest people. From the first second you walk in the door until you walk back out, you will be taken care of. If you are a personable character and enjoy human interaction, this is the place for you. If you happen to check clairpointe family dental out after reading this review, tell them I sent you 😂
My experience with Clairpointe is that it's always been "Pain Free"<br>and I appreciate that (thank you). It's almost fun going to an appointment. <chuckle>
