Great dental practice!! I saw a different doctor, but I got A+ care and everyone was very professional and nice.
Verified patient
The facility, hygienist and doctor, everything was great.
The doctor suggested two procedures, a metal filling replacement and crown replacement on two adjacent teeth. He printed the wrong tooth and I had to wait double time for it to be reprinted. He also ignored me telling him that the bite didn't feel comfortable and told me to "come back if it needs adjustment." Absolutely did, and I had to schedule a follow up, which was very inconvenient and disappointing. Also in the days after the procedure I felt more bruised and sore the ever before (and I've had several root canals/extractions), he is ROUGH. In the end after a follow up there is a "pocket" inside the crown which was concerning to him and he wanted to have ANOTHER FOLLOW UP in a few weeks to monitor. Also the filling he replaced is now extremely bite and cold/hot sensitive, leading me to believe he over did it and exposed a nerve. Please note I had no pain or complaint with either tooth, when I came it was for a cleaning and checkup. In the end, both procedures were a failure.
