“Highly recommend Dr. Mize. I had an implant emergency. Dr. Mize fit me in the same day, stayed late to complete the procedure, and I have not had an issue since. He and his staff are top notch.”

“Just moved to SC and needed to get 2 dental implants. I’m so glad I found Dr. Mize and his team. Dr. Mize even called me the night of my procedure to see how I was doing. The procedure itself was painless and I would recommend Sunset Periodontics to my friends and family.”
