Dr. Swihart and his staff were professional and took time to make sure all of my questions/concerns were addressed.

I DO NOT like the idea of a dentist office... Really. It's been over 10 years. So that said, I'll say this: I wish I would have went to them years ago! This place is super clean, and the staff really care! No judgement, just nice and helpful. The dentist didn't act like he was in a hurry to move to the next person either. I will not go anywhere else! They need 10 Stars!!!! There isn't enough room to type all the positive things about this place!

Dr Swihart and his staff are exceptionally friendly and helpful. My favorite local dentist by far and I have tried a few different places before I ended with them. They get extra points for how clean their office is as well

I can not say enough wonderful things about my first appointment at Topping Dental in Nappanee. I felt welcomed and cared about within the first few minutes of meeting Nicole. She is an amazing person and definite asset to this office! Her and Dr. Topping listened patiently to my concerns, answered my questions, and came up with a plan to move forward with my dental issues. The hard part is yet to come, but I sincerely believe that I found the right place to begin. What a blessing!

Thank you SO much Dr J for renewing my faith in dentistry! The was amazing too! Gentle and very patient with my horrible gag reflex during X-rays and the fact I had to rest my jaw and close my mouth occasionally.
The whole team experience was perfect and I'm happy to call this my dentist!

Dr. Topping and the team in Nappanee are proof that going to the dentist doesn’t have to feel like a life sentence
From the second you walk in, you’re greeted by awesome people who somehow make you forget you’re about to let someone stick sharp tools in your mouth. The whole team is super professional, but also fun and easygoing—which is a rare combo in the dental world!
Dr. Topping does a great job explaining everything and keeping you comfortable… I almost forgot I was at the dentist (almost). No judgment, no stress—just great care and even a few laughs along the way.
If you’re looking for a dentist that’s skilled, friendly, and makes the experience way better than expected… this is your place. 10/10 would let them clean my teeth again! 🦷

My husband and I along with our two boys (currently 6 & 3) go to Topping Dental in Elkhart and we are so thankful for everyone there! The front desk ladies are so kind and welcoming, the office is clean and has a room for the kids to play while waiting for their appointments. Special shoutout to our hygienist Ashley! She has paw patrol on for both my boys while they get their teeth cleaned and it makes them so happy! Highly recommend Dr Swihart and Ashley!

My family and I have been going to Topping Dental for almost 2 years now and our experience has been fantastic for both my wife and I and our 4 year old daughter.

Dr. Swihart and his staff provide a very welcoming environment for their patients. They are professional, patient, and personable. Even when I had to bring my
daughter to my appointment the dental assistants and the hygienist did an amazing job at keeping her entertained, taught her how the equipment worked so she wasn’t scared, and played with her in the kids area for me. Highly recommend this office!
