Popcorn is considered to be a fairly healthy snack by most experts, especially when compared to other salty treats, like corn chips. Unfortunately, microwave popcorn is another matter.

TESTIMONIALS
“I moved to Eagle about a year ago and was due for a dentist appointment. After a little research and a few phone calls, I decided to go with Eagle Dental Care. I got a heck of a deal for a first-timer, compared to the other places I called, and they were able to see me right away. I showed up and waited about two minutes before I was following Jen to the back to get started. After my cleaning, I met with Dr. Thomason, who was very nice and seemed genuinely happy to see me. I will definitely continue to come here and will recommend family and friends.”
“An awesome group of people! We’ve been going here for years, and now, our kids have started their dental care, too. We’ve lived in Nampa for over 10 years, aand it’s still worth the drive to Eagle. All the smiles and play (and the Tickle Water) have made it so easy for my 5- and 3-year-olds to feel comfortable. A huge thank you for making the dentist a place they actually want to go!”

“As not only a patient, but as an employee, I would absolutely recommend Eagle Dental Care to all my friends and family! Dr. Thomason is not only a fabulous boss, but a terrific dentist as well, treating his patients like he would treat his own family. I could not ask for a better office to work at or more wonderful people to work with!”
