Laurie W.

The older you get, the more you realize how important finding good dental care is important when you are young. Things happen, now much older, and circumstances happen. Finding a new group that makes you feel comfortable and confident is more important with older teeth. Walking through the door... for my first appointment, I knew Bonaventure Dental Care was the place I'll go to make sure my teeth stay trouble free. So many beautiful smiles, and treatment that was friendly and professional. Dr. Bonaventure's exam was on target. But he excelled at making me comfortable. I was really able to discuss where I wanted to go with the changes to my teeth. Changes I should have made years ago.I left the office knowing I had found my new dental home.read more

Maggie G.

Great staff. Never disappointed. Everyone was welcoming and friendly. Karlee was great.

I was presented with a treatment plan complete with cost breakdown.

Joni Landry R.

The staff is super friendly and always helpful. They treat you like an individual and truly care about your experience. I am always impressed how Dr. Bonaventure remembers details of your life even when it's six months between visits. He takes the time to get updates and answer any of your... questions. I will never forget how caring he was to our family after the 2016 flood. My mom had an appointment and my dad and I and my family were working on our flooded homes. Dr. Bonaventure and a coworker brought my mom home after her appointment. We will never forget his thoughtfulness. This is what I appreciate in doctors and I would highly recommend Dr. Bonaventure and his staff.read more

Angie A.

I had not been to the dentist in about 16 months due to some medical and personal issues. This required some deeper cleaning than normal. Every one was so patient and caring I could have easily been brought to tears. As long as I am able, I will be a patient at Bonaventure Dental Care .

Lana R.

Dani is still THE greatest hygienist in the world! Been going to her for many years. Dr B is also great. He is very friendly, really cares about you, and does superb work. In fact, whole staff is 5 star. Great people. You won’t go wrong with Bonaventure.

tim F.

Dr Bonaventure is so nice and caring! He doesn’t come in, look at your teeth and run - he asks about your day/life and shares his own personal experiences too! After he fixed a problem tooth he and his staff made sure I was ok the following day and beyond. Jenna, one of his hygienist, is absolutely... amazing! Oh, and I have never waited more than 5min!read more

I have complete and unwavering trust in his dental expertise and the unparalleled quality of care he provides.read more

Hamed B.

Dr. Bonaventure is by far the best dentist In Baton Rouge!!!! He has seamlessly pulled my wisdom teeth and not even the numbing part was painful! He’s very caring and personable with his patients in a very professional manner ! Not only Dr. Bonaventure but his staff as well, the ladies at the front... desk are awesome they remember who I am when I call (no better feeling) and the ladies that do the cleanings are the BEST!!!! They take their time and clean your teeth thoroughly; they even ask how your teeth are feeling when they’re done! I’ve already recommended my co workers to Dr. Bonaventure and now working on my mother in law lol! Dr. Bonaventure and his office has me as a patient forever as well as an ADVOCATE can’t wait to bring my kids to him as well 🦷read more

Tammy G.

Bonaventure Dental Care is the absolute best place to go. I’ve been apprehensive to seek dental care after having bad experiences with other dentists. The care I received was excellent, friendly, and professional. My procedures were painless due to their liberal use of numbing gel prior to... injection. It’s easy to get an appointment and instructions are explained in detail. I drive 2 hours one direction to see this dentist and his awesome staff. They are worth every mile‼️read more

Taylor Caitlin C.

Dr. Bonaventure went above and beyond for me and I'm so grateful to him and his staff. This is the best dental experience I have ever had. I will never use another dentist for the rest of my life.

I will be recommending them to everyone I cross paths with.read more

Outstanding dental practice. I have been a patient since it's inception. They continued the practice of Dr. James Gilbert but completely updated the facilities with state of the art equipment and continued to hire great quality staff. Zero reservations about recommending Bonaventure Dental Care.

Mark B.

I really enjoy going to my dentist. Yes, I said “enjoy”. Because the entire staff is always so professional & courteous which really helps my comfort level before the work begins. The office is also taking extra precautions to ensure the protection and safety of each client during COVID-19. I like... how,
Dr. Bonaventure comes in to talk to the client even if he doesn’t have work to do on them.read more

Lucy S.

I've been going to Dr. B for over decade now and he has always been fantastic, knowledgeable, and consistent. My entire family also sees Dani for our 6-month visits, and she is beyond amazing and awesome too! We do and will continue to recommend Dr. B!

Adam C.

I've been seeing Dr. Megison for years (followed him from Gov't St to Coursey Blvd now to Tiger Bend). When he joined Dr. Bonaventure I started seeing Dani (hygienist) and she is amazing. Quick, efficient and always remembers that the Mint toothpaste makes me sick - so she finds other flavors for... me. Had to go in for a Crown and got to meet Chelsea (dental assistant) - wow she put me at ease and was wonderful with making sure the temporary crown worked with my night guard. Have loved Dr. Megison and his staff for years, now I can't say enough great things about Dr. Bonaventure and his staff. On a scale of 1 to 10 they rate a 100 easily.read more

Shanna E.

I am always met with a very professional staff which operates their office with perfection. Never have i had extended time periods in the waiting room. Every time I arrive for my appointment, I am promptly brought back and put the door before I know it, yet never feeling rushed.

Donald Melancon J.

I love this place. They are always running on time. They realize my time is valuable too and don’t keep me waiting. They are friendly and very efficient.

Heather S.

They are the best!!! After having been incarcerated and not having proper dental care, the team and Doctor Bonaventure took me in and took care of me. I was so scared, but they made me feel welcome and at ease. The office was nice, well maintained and very pretty. I immediately recommended this... office to my daughter who will be making a visit very soon. One of the most things that was important to me is they did not judge me, and were very helpful in my dental plan and I look forward to my next visit to continue on the road to a beautiful smile.read more

Rhonda Faye S.

BEST dental care in Baton Rouge! The staff is so caring and makes you feel comfortable every time you come in. They are very gentle and ensure you aren’t in pain - this is HUGE! I can’t tell you how many dentists I’ve been to where everything they do hurts 😢 I would leave other places with... the corners on my mouth cracked & bleeding.
I’m amazed every time I go into Dr. Bonaventure’s office! It is actually a wonderful experience to go to the dentist 🙌🏼😁read more

Dani is the BEST hygienist I’ve ever had and Dr. Bonaventure is the greatest dentist, very thorough and informative!

Stacey B.

I found Dr. Bonaventure when I moved back to Louisiana almost 5 years ago. The staff is personable and professional. Dr. Bonaventure has top notch equipment and technology. I referred a friend who was new to Louisiana to Dr. Bonaventure and she has been extremely pleased as well. When I had a... change in dental insurance for 1 year and Dr. Bonaventure was not on my insurance, I refused to change dentist and found a way to continue to go to him. I was excited that he was on my plan when I got my new policy at my new job! This is one doctor that I have no plans on changing.read more

Vee'tuh P.

I absolutely love coming here. Dr. Bonaventure gave me my smile back and the whole crew there is so nice and professional. The hygienist is so sweet and remembers what we talked about at our last cleanings and it feels good to have a neighborhood dentist so close by.

Shaun P

I love this dentist and his staff. I had broke my tooth over the weekend, they immediately took me in the same day I called and took good care of me. The staff is friendly and they are maintaining safety measures during this pandemic. I would highly recommend this office to everyone I know!!

The staff is pleasant and nice. Dr Bonaventure and the hygienist take their time with you. You are treated special.
