    ****DONT HAVE OPTION TO VOTE ZERO STAR. GO TO THIS PLACE IF YOU WANT TO GET FRACTURED TO YOUR TOOTH/JAW****. Here is my horrible story... Despite of having pain and swelling in right lower side of cheek, I visited Alpha Dental Excellence located at 240 Middletown Blvd, Suite 100,Langhorne, PA, 19047 for evaluation on 9/16/2022. After doing the initial documentation work, I was seen by Dr. Elizabeth Pullockaran. Xrays were taken. After the evaluation Dr. Elizabeth Pullockaran told me that Right Lower Wisdom tooth has to be removed. She explained me about the Nerve near lower wisdom tooth might get damaged and the effects of damages on this nerve. She explained me about all the procedures I need to follow after the removal of this tooth. She told that Dr. Arpan N. Patel who is the business owner of this facility is highly experienced dentist and he will perform the Right Lower Wisdom tooth extract. Then I was charged $280.80 for the codes D7210, D7953 plsu $11.23(4% surcharge for credit/debit cards). I paid $292.03 from my credit card ending in 8094. Not sure Why they asked me to pay upfront when I was lying down on the bed for wisdom tooth extract. Dr. Elizabeth Pullockaran administrated 3.4 cc lidocaine hcl 2%, 1:100000 EPI via IAN and long buccal block. Dr. Arpan N. Patel visited me around 12 PM on 9/16/2022. He started the procedures extracting my Right Lower Wisdom Tooth. He handled the tools like which surgeons use and used these tools vigorously on my Right Lower Wisdom Tooth. Tools are like sharpening clip, like Screw puller, like cutting blade. He tried to pull the tooth, he tried to dig the tooth, he tried to shake it. He has done these things for 30 minutes and asked me to take rest. I waited for 15 minutes and he came back again. He started doing the same procedures for another 15 minutes. While doing the procedure, he told me he do not want to give up on this tooth. He told me Wisdom tooth is very tightly attached to its bone and he is not able to shake it. While doing this , he told I might need to visit oral surgeon since the tooth is very tightly attached to its bone. After trying all these procedures for around 1 hour 30 minutes, I was taken for another Xray. After few minutes, Dr. Elizabeth Pullockaran came to me and said I need to visit oral surgeon to get this tooth removed. They contacted some oral surgeon nearby and oral surgeon is available only on Monday 9/19/2022. After I raised concern about the pain and why I was not told at the beginning to visit oral surgeon, she apologized. She prescribed Amoxicillin 500mg, Motrin 800 mg, Hydrocodone with Acetaminophen 7.5/325mg. I was refunded $280.80. Again After few minutes, Dr. Elizabeth Pullockaran came to me and said she found an surgeon nearby and oral surgeon is available same day. she asked me to visit the oral surgeon Dr.Lui at Yardley Oral Surgery Facility located at 606 Floral Vale Blvd, Yardley, PA, 19067. Dr. Elizabeth Pullockaran gave me a referral letter to oral surgeon Dr.Lui in which she wrote the below points. If you could kindly assist us in evaluating and treating the following, it would be much appreciated. 1. Please eval patient for extraction of #32. 2. We attempted the extraction earlier today, but the coronal portion of the tooth fractured off. We administrated 3.4 cc lidocaine hcl 2%, 1:100000 EPI via IAN and long buccal block. Please eval & treat. Thank you. I drove alone and visited Dr.Lui's office at Yardley Oral Surgery Facility located at 606 Floral Vale Blvd, Yardley, PA, 19067 with the referral letter provided by Dr. Elizabeth Pullockaran. After completing the initial documentation Dr.Lui's office, oral surgeon Dr.Lui took xray and evaluated me. He had these concerns. Why dentist did not attempt to send you to oral surgeon. Why he performed the tooth extract for more than 1 hour ? Why you went to their facility ? Who asked you to go there? Then Dr.Lui told me that Dr. Arpan N. Patel broken my wisdom tooth partially. The upper part was broken. I was not even told about this wisdom tooth damage when I was at Dr. Arpan N. Patel's facility. My health is totally screwed up now. I am going through unexplained pain and stress because of Dr. Arpan N. Patel's carelessness and poor evaluation. I should have been told at the beginning after he looked at the xray that I need to go to oral surgeon. Instead of referring me to oral surgeon at beginning level, Dr. Arpan N. Patel attempted to do oral surgeon's procedures while he is practicing only dentist. Dr. Arpan N. Patel damaged my gum, wisdom tooth badly and broken the upper part of wisdom tooth. Please kindly investigate this incident and provide me justice in the rightly manner. This facility should be closed permanently.

    41+ minutes of indefinite hold as they continue to avoid a discussion and resolution of fraudulent billing.

This dental office was gracious enough to give us an appointment that same week on a Saturday, which was such a relief. What I thought might be simple cavities turned out to require two root canals. To make matters more stressful, I had forgotten that my son was no longer covered under my insurance -- so he had no insurance at all. Dental work without insurance can be extremely expensive, but the office never treated us any differently. They were kind, understanding, and professional throughout the entire process. They helped me complete an application with Cherry, a company that offers payment plans for medical and wellness services. Thank God I was approved, because it truly made all the difference. I was there all day, but the staff made sure I was comfortable, kept me updated on my son's progress, and clearly communicated when he would be finished. There truly are not enough good things I can say about this office. It means so much when people go the extra mile to make sure you're okay during a stressful situation. I'm beyond grateful for the care, compassion, and professionalism we received. Highly recommend. Alicia Leroy

Then serendipity intervened. I ran into my former dentist's wife in Staples last week. After chatting a while, I asked if she could refer me to someone new in the area. Indeed, she could. Turned out that they had a friend, Linda Batista, a DMD in Langhorne, PA, who was excellent. I called her office the next day for an appointment. She answered the phone herself. I went to see her this week. While the landlord should spruce up the exterior and repave the parking lot, the office itself was fine. Plenty of staff handling administration and hygienist work, and two dental chair examination rooms for the pair of licensed professionals handling the high speed drills. Dr. Batista introduced herself early in my visit. She was personable and explained what would be happening for the following 30 minutes. Description of my complaints (why I was there), a look at my teeth with water and air, x-ray of my broken tooth, repair, and finally a treatment plan for whatever came next (comprehensive examination, diagnostics, cleaning and whitening). She worked quickly and precisely, explaining herself as she went along. The injured bicuspid was dealt with in minutes and finished with me feeling comfortable. I left with a smooth firm bite. Nice not to feel that sharp edge against my tongue any more. I was very satisfied with the first experience with Dr. Batista, and enjoyed our brief conversation at the counter as I paid the invoice and scheduled the next session. This could be the beginning of a long beneficial relationship.

    Despite the delay in scheduling the extraction of a fractured molar due to the illness of the oral…read moresurgeon on the original appointment date, when the hour finally arrived over one month later I was pleased overall with the experience. Two visits were required. First, a two minute evaluation with the surgeon to allow him a visual check on my condition, and to briefly discuss the appropriate anesthesia (local or general) for the procedure. My cracked and partially missing tooth was fairly straight forward, so we agreed that a local would be sufficient. Two months later on the appointed day, I appeared a few minutes early in case there was paperwork, although I had submitted the dentist's information before the first appointment. Still, there appeared to be a lack of coordination between the front desk and the part time surgical team (including surgeon), so I sat in the waiting room for 40 minutes being ignored by the staff until the surgical assistant wondered where I was and why I hadn't been sent back to their small work area in back. Turned out, there were a bit more questions to answer, which I completed quickly. Shortly, the surgeon came in and began sedating my gums around the tooth to be removed. He injected a lot of numbing agent and it took a while for it to do its job. He returned a third time with one more shot for good measure and went after the broken soldier with a dental pliers. He torqued and yanked and pulled and had that bad boy out in about two minutes. I had to ask if it was extracted and was pleased when he was affirmative. Not completely painless, but so fast that I had no complaints. I was out of the chair and preparing to leave just a few minutes later. The assistant gave me a bag with gauze, ice bag and written directions to take home. It would have been more comprehensive had she explained everything I should be doing, such as to take ibuprofen and Tylenol Extra Strength as soon as I got home before the local anesthetic wore off, and how to use the gauze and ice pack, but luckily I read the instructions and avoided any problems. 24 hours later and I am without pain, nor bleeding and haven't needed the ice pack for swelling. All good. Still careful what I eat, and admit to a mild brain fog from the remains of the anesthesia in my system. Four Surgical Stars for the folks who took care of me well. Two Uncoordinated Stars for the lack of same between the front desk and the surgical crew.

I went 10 years without being able to smile, or I'd hold my hand in front of my face when I would speak to people, bc during a contentious custody battle, I'd grind my teeth they were no longer visible. I avoided job interviews, parent/teacher conferences and social activities like the plague. I searched for 10 years, begging for someone to help me with dentures. Unless I had $10,000, nobody would even consider working on my mouth. I finally found the mom-n-pa dental clinic, and was lucky enough to get Dr. Gladstone as my provider. She's a wonderful person and a rockstar dentist. I'd recommend her to anyone who wants to be treated with dignity and respect, and leave the appointment with everything you wanted and more.

Dr. Steinkeler is sooo nice and truly cares about his patients. He eased all of my worries as best as he could and made sure to tell me everything that was going on before, during, and after the procedure.
