Dr. Park saved me from a root canal! I went to him for a second opinion after my first dentist…read moresaid I needed one. Dr. Park was very honest and forthright about my tooth, saying he could try saving it but if there was pain after the filling, I may need one. Wanting to avoid a root canal at all cost, I told him, let's do it! He was very gentle, skilled, and made sure I was comfortable. The tooth came out beautiful! It has been over a month since the filling and absolutely no pain or issues. I'm a little embarrassed about how gross my tooth looked before but had to share pictures on how gorgeous the filling came out. Thank you so much Dr. Park. I promise I'll floss more often

I visited this office on 8/25/25. They were a referral from a friend so I had a lot of confidence…read morein them. Boy was I wrong. This office is why people believe that dentist are scammers. First they told me it would be $234 to clean my teeth but I get 2 feee cleanings a year with insurance. Apparently this is the price for a deep cleaning which I NEVER asked for. Then Dr. Park said that the bridge I had need to be replaced so he was referring me to a colleague. To make a long story short. I walked out with an estimate charge of $5,500 in dental work. They tried to get me to obtain care credit. I was so upset and overwhelmed that I left wanting to cry. Two weeks later, I found another amazing dentist who said I didn't need a deep cleaning or a new bridge. The bridge just needed adjusting and my teeth only needed the standard cleaning. The new dentist was able to do my 2nd bridge using my insurance only. Please shop around and don't choose any old dentist who will use up all your insurance benefits in unnecessary procedures then turn around and charge you for what you really need but now you have to pay out of pocket

I didn't want him to be scared or experience any pain, which could negatively impact any future dentist visits. Dr. Sizgorich and her team were absolutely amazing at keeping him comfortable throughout the whole treatment! They explained to him in detail how they will fix this cavity in a way that a 5 year old could understand. They talked to him through the entire procedure and kept his mind away from all the uncomfortable things that were happening in his mouth. I couldn't be happier with Dr. Sizgorich and her team. If I could - I would give her 10 stars!

She made him feel seen, cared about and his fears were completely gone after meeting her. She continued to check on him during the procedure to make sure he was comfortable and happy. He did not once feel any pain. She also texted me multiple times throughout the day to ensure he was doing ok. I usually NEVER hear from a dentist after a procedure. This made us feel even happier to have started at Pearly Smiles. We are actually looking forward to our next visits here...also shout out to the amazing and kind office staff who deal with me and my phone calls....you guys ROCK. THANK YOU all so much.

Once inside, they had some Montessori toys for the kiddos to play with, but not an overwhelming amount which was nice. We really liked that they didn't sit him in a dentist chair for the first visit and how hands on they were with teaching us the correct way to brush a toddlers teeth. They shared a chart with us of foods that cause and don't cause cavities, which we thought was cute. At the end of the visit, he received a token to redeem a prize at one of the capsule machines. He was so excited to receive his little token and even learned how to put it in on the spot.

It has been nothing but a nightmare. Going back to get an adjustment I found later was billed as an emergency visit when I was told there would be no charge.

I was so upset I just walked out. I called again cause the crown on tooth 4 is now all jagged with Ruff edges and they can't even tell me if I will get charged if I go in.
