I went to this dentist because I couldnt get in to my regular dentist due my schedule. So I got an appointment here to have my teeth cleaned. I typically get my teeth cleaned one a year and get any work that needs to be done at that time. Once I was called in they ran my insurance information. Once it was known that I had insurance they took me for some X rays and when I was done the dentist came in to examine my teeth. She told me I needed a deep cleaning. I thought this peculiar as I get my teeth clean yearly. However I do have some bone recession around ONE tooth. She started cleaning and was done with my whole mouth within about 20 minutes. I know from previous cleanings that a deep cleaning can take an hour or more. I was shocked she was done so quickly. Once the cleaning was done she began going over my x rays and asks about any issues I had I pointed out I had what I believed to be a SMALL cavity. She says to me that I had many issues and that I needed Four Root Canals! I was shocked and extremely bothered by her diagnosis and I asked several questions and she began to explain that some of my fillings were failing, two on my front teeth and two towards the back. She left for a moment and soon her receptionist came back to talk to me about getting all this work done. The work was going cost around $8000 dollars!! I told them I didnt have that kind of money and I wanted a second opinion from my regular dentist. Keep in mind that this is extremely stressful and I was very upset about all of this. I got to my regular dentist and I told them what had happened and I was expecting to need a lot of work done however I was very surprised to hear that my dentist told me that I did not need any root canals at all. He told me I needed three fillings and that one tooth was actually fine and needed absolutely no work at all. He also made the comment that she didnt do a deep cleaning on me and that she had done a bad job of cleaning my teeth and he had to go back over areas that she didnt do right. I would not ever suggest ever going to this dentist ever for any reason. I feel she was trying to take advantage of me and would have happily done all this unnecessary work on me. Thank goodness I went to my regular dentist or I would have been taken advantage of my dentist fixed everything for four hundred dollars. Please dont go there ever.
