Good quality service
Great people
I cannot express enough how wonderful these ladies are. They always greet you with a smile & make you feel like home. You guys are awesome!!!
My wife and I have been patients for 10+ years. Always pleased with Dr Goodwin and his staff.
This place is great thank you
Loved them. First time there
Highly capable, professional, but overall friendly and caring.
I neglected going to the dentist for a few years because of some uncomfortable visits to other dentists. I read reviews and found Dr. Goodwin. The whole office is great! ! Dr Goodwin and dental hygienist, Denise, were professional and kind worked to get me back on track again. When I needed a crown it was completed in a day! The technology Dr Goodwin uses is amazing! I moved out of state but I am so comfortable with Dr Goodwin and Denise that I don't hesitate to make the drive to Griswold to get the excellent care I get there.
I have been going to this office for several years. Dr. Goodwin inherited me as a "problem-child" patient who required extensive repair work as a result of years of neglect. I have had numerous cavities, root canals, extractions and crowns done over the years to restore my teeth. Needless to say, I am well qualified to write this review. Dr. Goodwin is an all around great guy who really cares and is so skilled that you hardly know he is working on your teeth. He always goes above and beyond for his patients. I have even had special emergency sessions scheduled on multiple occasions. He and his staff are always friendly and professional beyond my expectations. Beyond all this, they always work with me to get the maximum amount of work done in the most cost-effective manner allowable by my insurance plan. I would give this office a 50 star review if it was an option!
Many years of quality service from this group of high level professionals! They are personable one and all.
I have been a patient of Dr. Goodwin for several years. I lost a filling to a ju-jy fruit candy. I saw Dr. Goodwin and he treated me kindly and professionally. The office was so clean it sparkled, and I complimented him and his staff. Dr. Goodwin replaced my filling expertly and I felt comfortable about the procedure. I am glad to have this great office in Griswold for my dental needs.
My family has gone to Dr. Goodwin for many years. He is kind and gentle, and his staff is friendly. They helped my husband with a fear of dentists and many cavities. My son has had several teeth pulled there and still both my kids enjoy going. They make you feel like family!
Very special team in the office and greatly appreciated every time I need to visit the office for dental care. Thank you team for your services.
I highly recommend this dental practice. I no longer dread going to the dentist! Dr. Goodwin is so gentle and concerned for the comfort of the patient while being very knowledgeable. Sara, the hygienist, is very efficient. and pleasant. I like having the same hygienist every time as I know she knows my teeth well and has gotten to know me. It's great going to a place where you are not just a number. All are so welcoming.
Friendly, quick , painless, clean, and my young children love going there.
Dr. Goodwin is a great dentist and his staff are fantastic. No judging here!
Highly recommend very helpful and friendly staff. DR GOODWIN was excellent was fast and efficient
I had my first visit with Dr.Goodwin and I found it to be a very enjoyable experience. My previous dentist retired but after this visit I feel I should have switched sooner. Dr. Goodwin's office is up to date, the employees are friendly and Dr. Goodwin was a real pleasure to meet.
Today I went to Goodwin Family Dentistry, knowing I might have broken a tooth. I, too, was due for a cleaning, so I decided to get everything done in one fell swoop. I went in with very high expectations. My previous dentist was Dr. Bruce Tandy. If you check him out he is highly rated in the state, however he recently retired. I am a creature of habit, I must be comfortable with you, to be able to work in my mouth. I find it's harder to find a good dentist. Dr. Goodwin, did not disappoint. I felt very at ease. As I had thought I DID break my tooth, but what I didn't expect, was that I had broken 2 teeth. Dr. Goodwin showed me both of the teeth and where there they were broken. Then he went to work. Throughout the procedure he explained what was going on, etc. He then, noticed why I had broken my teeth. It was due to another tooth and how it sits when I bite down. He explained that it would keep breaking my teeth if it wasn't taken care of and immediately rectified the situation. I love my teeth and I would like to keep them in as good a health as possible. His staff was very friendly and I feel they are more "down to earth" people. It's much easier to be relaxed when the people working in your mouth are not pretentious or judging, etc in many ways. I highly recommend, you give the office a try. I found my new dentist and I will continue to go there until he retires.
So glad I went to Goodwin dental today, they were wonderful! My procedure was quick and painless and the results were perfect. Everyone helped out me at ease since I get terrible anxiety going to the dentist as a result of bad past experiences with other dentists. I would recommend them to anyone! Thank you!

Many people avoid the dentist because they expect bad news, pressure, or confusion. We do it differently.
At Mondovi Dental in Jewett City, you can expect:
Clear explanations (no rushed jargon)
Options you can compare (what’s urgent vs. what can wait)
A comfort-first approach for anxious patients
A plan you can follow, not a pile of surprises
If you haven’t been to the dentist in years, that’s okay. We’ll meet you where you are and start with the basics.
When you’re choosing a dentist, the person guiding your care matters.
Dr. Glen Hacker, DDS brings a thoughtful, patient-focused style to every appointment.

He’s also a member of the American Dental Association and the Connecticut State Dental Association.
What patients tend to appreciate most is his approach: Dr. Hacker focuses on keeping visits comfortable, lowering anxiety when possible, and helping you choose the best long-term path, not just the quickest fix.
We provide comprehensive dentistry so you can keep care in one place and avoid bouncing between offices. Here are some of the most common services patients request:
A great exam isn’t just “a quick look.” We check your teeth and gums, review concerns you’ve noticed, and help you understand what’s going on—before small issues become bigger ones.
Cleanings remove hardened buildup that brushing can’t. They also help protect gum health and keep your mouth feeling fresh. If it’s been a while, we’ll keep it gentle and go at a pace that works for you.
Cavities happen. When you need a filling, the goal is simple: remove the damaged area, restore strength, and keep your bite feeling natural.
Crowns help protect a tooth that’s cracked, worn down, or has a large filling. We’ll explain why a crown may be recommended and what to expect during the process.
If your smile looks dull from coffee, tea, or time, professional whitening can brighten it safely. We’ll help you choose an option that fits your sensitivity level and goals.
Want straighter teeth without the look of traditional braces? Clear aligners can be a great fit for many adults and teens. Dr. Hacker’s training in clear aligners helps ensure your plan is built around a healthy bite—not just looks.
Tooth pain, swelling, a broken tooth, or an infection can’t wait. If you’re dealing with a dental emergency near Jewett City, call as soon as you can. We’ll help you understand what’s urgent and get you scheduled for care as quickly as possible.
