I needed a filling, which is never a fun experience, but the staff and Drs at Zent made it my best experience yet at the dentist. Dr. Sheena took the time to answer all my questions. She went out of her way to make me feel comfortable and relaxed!
Best dental experience I have ever had! The front desk was so welcoming and I was given the most in-depth checkup. The dental assistant and dentist took their time to talk me through everything.
Dr. Stephen is amazing! He explained every step of my crown procedure and I barely felt a thing. The whole office has a calm, welcoming vibe. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a new dentist.
We bring all three of our kids here and they actually look forward to their dental visits. The team is so patient and gentle with children. Dr. Sheena makes it fun for them!
Moved to South Bend last year and finding Zent Family Dentistry was the best thing. They got me in quickly, the office is beautiful and modern, and the staff genuinely cares.

Pleasant, family environment. Compassionate staff and excellent care! Wouldn't go anywhere else for my dental needs.
I was terrified of the dentist for years. Dr. Sheena and the hygienists were so understanding and never made me feel judged. They worked with me at my pace. I'm no longer afraid to go!
Had my teeth whitened here and the results are incredible. The Zents really know cosmetic dentistry. Everyone at the office was professional and friendly. Will definitely be back!
From scheduling to checkout, everything runs smoothly here. No long waits, no surprises on the bill. They even submitted my insurance for me. This is how a dental practice should be run.
I drive from Mishawaka because Zent Family Dentistry is worth the trip. Dr. Stephen did my implant and it looks and feels completely natural. Can't say enough good things about this practice.
