My tooth was loose and I knew it wasn't going to be around for long. She decided the best option was to file down the top back tooth that she believed was causing the lower tooth to be loose. I could feel the difference after she did the work on my tooth. She is my HERO. All the people in her office (Dr. Bouvier included) are super nice and make you feel at ease. I will definitely continue to go back to her for care. Thank you so much Dr. Bouvier!!!!

Let me make it clear that I hate going to the dentist. After moving to the seacoast a few years ago…read moreit took me a LOT of gusto to finally find a dentist and great Bay came recommended by a friend after trying another recommended dentist who was just too salesy and just too intense for me. So far I've gone for two cleanings and some additional work and I'm so impressed by Dr. Goslee and his team. They listen, are compassionate and I don't feel like I'm being advised to do anything that isn't needed. I'll always be a little ball of rapid heart beats and sweat when going to the dentist but at least I know the team at Great Bay will support me and try to make me as comfortable as possible!

I have been at this dental office longer than the dentist. Unfortunately after many years I found…read morethe care I was getting to be unacceptable. First I broke a tooth. We decided to do a crown. The temporary crown didn't feel right after a few weeks. I went in and had it checked and was sent home. That weekend I had pus coming out of my gum. I went in and a root canal was done. When I went in for the permanent crown weeks later an x-ray was taken. I saw the look on both the dentist and that of his assistant and I new it wasn't going to be good. He turned and said I can send you to a gum specialist but gave me no reason why. I asked if the tooth was gone or not and he replied it doesn't look good. I said so why are you sending me to someone else so I can pay for him to tell me it's gone? I said Just pull it. He pulled the tooth and said I don't understand how it abscessed so quickly and he asked the assistant if she saw anything. She said yes right there and pointed to my x-ray. He then turned around and offered me $500 off a bridge. I decided to do Invisalign first to straighten 2 front teeth. I was almost done when I found a bump at the top of my gum that went into my nostril. I went in and told him. I thought he'd take an x-ray but he just felt my gum for a long time. He cut the attachments off my teeth and scanned me for retainers. I said so I'm keeping the bump and his reply was it's fine it'll look like you have a fuller lip. I believe that was the 20th on the 24th I ate two french fries and my tooth ached. Two bites of toast the 25th did the same thing. I called the office on the 26th and told the girl that my tooth was not okay. She said we were just about to call you he wants you in here ASAP. My husband was with me when I was told my tooth had been pushed up into my gum to far and I could have nerve damage. He already had trays there. The date the trays were packaged was the 22nd. So someone knew there was a problem and I was never told resulting in more damage. From the 26th forward I've never ate using the tooth again. Below is just part of what I went through after starting the new trays. Top tooth ached when I would floss. Told him multiple times and then told him I couldn't get floss in between the teeth. He told me just don't floss. Tooth ended up aching come to find out the tooth was moved over to far. Now I had a new smaller bump and needed more trays. At tray 11 which would mean 100-110 days after my tooth was damaged he took an x-ray. Bottom tooth twisted. Mentioned it. Nothing till I spoke to the manager. Now he was gonna fix it. Trays made my gums burn. His excuse we're moving teeth. When we got to the end of the trays he decided I was due for retainers even after I told him the top tooth needing adjusting not once but twice. A front tooth one of the two I paid $4800 to have fixed I couldn't use to eat and it was at a slant. He said he could fix it by trimming it. When I got home and looked in the mirror the tooth was not fixed. I can look in the mirror standing at my bathroom sink and see where perfectly good tooth was taken off. My burning gums were caused due to the fact my teeth were moved to far forward. They put pressure on my top teeth causing facial pain. I can not relax my lower jaw comfortably and have a lot of migraines. I had called the office during covid trying to get help. I asked about backing up some trays and getting a second opinion on my top tooth and the office girl said to wait and see what he wanted to do. The retainers aggravated the damaged top tooth immediately. I finally get an appointment and tell him how the tooth felt. He ran his finger up and down my gum and as he's walking off he said your gums are fine. He goes and stands down at the foot of the dental chair and says I can get you a new retainer. I said I didn't think the tooth was ready for a retainer. I asked him what he was going to do about the pain caused from the bottom teeth being moved out to far. He just stood there and stared at me I said you can look in my mouth and see it. He just stood there. I said this is totally unacceptable and left. If I felt I was being treated right I'd never have walked away from $500. I asked for my records. They were done by his assistant and by him. All the important parts were left out and the fact he wouldn't look in my mouth totally left out. I eventually got into a specialist for a different reason. I told him about the tooth. It took him 20 seconds maybe less to tell me he thought my nerve was dead and that just the slant in which my tooth was left and it's root could cause my pain. He also believed my root might have gone through the bone. Went to a endodontist $290. I was told root canal $1100 If I still have pain surgery to go in and trim off the root of my tooth $1350. I'm still trying to find out if I'll also need a crown. Then there is also the chance I'll lose the tooth. He'd tell me it just takes time when I'd ask why I couldn't use my tooth.

"Good enough" isn't good enough when you're talking about your choppers, which we all hope will last us well into our golden years. Enter JD Howard Dental. I've been coming here for nearly 15 years and I'm very happy with my teeth and how they're treated here. I'm 55, so I've been around the block a bit with dentists. Are they expensive? Yes. Dentistry is expensive. Are they WORTH it? Yes. You will be treated very well (like an old friend), and your teeth will be the best that they can be. I have insurance, but it's not bottomless - the hygienists at JD Howard (Nichole, to be exact) go out of their way to advise me how best to utilize my insurance dollars, and are hip to the fact that I don't have an endless wallet. Bottom line: you want your teeth in the best possible hands? Go to JD Howard.

I've been a patient at JD Howard dental for approximately seven years now and I have always been…read morehappy with the stellar service. I, as are many of the patients at JD Howard dental, am a bona fide sufferer of dentophobia. If not for modern dentistry, and all of the amenities offered with regards to comfort, I'm quite certain all of my teeth would rot and fall right out of my mouth. I know many other people feel the same way and that's why we search out dental practices that provide sedation dentistry without judgment. My phobia is so bad that I require sedation with regular dental cleanings. Apparently, sedation dentistry is no longer a major part of this practice because I don't see it anywhere on the website. Until recently that form of sedation for me was nitrous oxide. Though ironically, I have never really had much of a fear of the needle when requiring Novacaine. I know that's a little unusual, but it's true. Recently, I have heard that the practice was sold by Dr. Howard and bought by a corporation. The things that I'm experiencing there now are pretty typical of businesses that are bought by corporations and the biggest issue there is the patient always seems to come last and the bottom line is always first. As a result, I have lost the nitrous oxide for basic dental care. I've also noticed dentists have left the practice as have hygienists. There's always a reason for that. I had an appointment for the hygienist for which I was given a prescription for Halcyon, a benzodiazepine. The consent paperwork that I was given stated that the norm for this is Lorazepam or Ativan unless contraindicated. I have no health history that would exclude the use of Ativan. This is what happened. At approximately 10 to 15 minutes after I took the Halcyon, I knew there was going be a problem because that stuff hit me really hard. It hit me so hard in fact that the dental hygienist had to assist me from the waiting room to her room and back again. I have almost no recollection of anything that happened after that. I remember the hygienist taking my blood pressure and hearing the diastolic number, but I don't remember much of the actual work, I don't remember my teeth being polished, and I don't remember any examination or discussion with the dentist, which is particularly disturbing. I left the hygienist room with my swag bag, and once again her assistance to the waiting room. The worst part of that is that anytime I have dental work at JD Howard dental I'm now going to be out of commission for the rest of the day. Can't drive, can't work, etc. I'm in health care so I obviously can't work after that. That means I have to take a whole day off with vacation time which is completely unacceptable. With nitrous, none of the things cited above, were even remotely an issue. I finished my cleaning or whatever other dental work it was, made my way to my car, and drove myself home. After questioning, it has been brought to my attention that nitrous oxide services will no longer be offered by the hygienist. So my question becomes, who made that decision? Oh wait, it's a corporate thing and likely a refusal to pay for their certification, or accept any associated risk. At any rate, and in light of all of the above, I have no other choice, but to seek dental services elsewhere. I am a recent Snowbird and I have found a full service sedation dental practice in St. Petersburg, Florida, who offers nitrous for dental cleanings. After a lot of consideration, I have elected to go with them and have my first appointment in January '25. I only chose a Florida practice because I couldn't find sedation dentistry in this area. This recent appointment at this facility was unfortunately my last. The practice under corporate ownership has become something no longer desirable to me and judging by recent Yelp reviews, I'm not the only one.
