UPDATE: PAY ATTENTION TO ALL THE 5 Star Reviews with ZERO friends! FAKE!
CHECK WHAT IS BEING BILLED TO YOUR INSURANCE!
I would NOT recommend Bedford Dental Group EVER.
You should definitely look elsewhere if you want honest, professional treatment.
I advise that anyone thinking of coming here based on the suspicious 5-star reviews to READ THE FILTERED REVIEWS.
I do not understand why they are being filtered, as many of them are coming from people with dozens of reviews.
Aptly described by another Yelper as "a hustle shop."
I had a small space between my front two teeth and a crooked lower tooth that I wanted to have fixed.
I was advised to get the very pricey Invisalign treatment.
Another dentist came over to look at the space advised me that Invisalign was not necessary in my case, and that I should not get it.
Of course, Naysan advised otherwise. I felt that he was aggressive in pushing this treatment for one small space.
Each time I was at Bedford Dental, I was asked while still in the chair to hand my credit card over.
I thought this unprofessional, and it made me feel uneasy. I'm not going to run out of the office without paying, so why do this? This is also noted in other reviews for this office.
After the Invisalign process was completed, each time I went in to the office, a new treatment was pushed. This is also noted in several other reviews for this office. I felt like I could not trust the validity or usefulness of these treatments.
First, it was teeth whitening. I actually paid with the Invisalign for the Zoom teeth whitening treatment, which I never had done, and which was never refunded to me.
I was handed a stack of Bedford Dental Group cards with an offer directly from the dentist. Bring 10 people in and I'll give you a free tube of whitening paste. This also made me feel uneasy, as no other dentist I have been to has offered referral "deals" such as this.
I later learned that this paste was called, "Nightwhite" and goes for about $100 for 3 tubes.
Next, I was told that I needed my wisdom teeth removed.
This set off many alarms. When I was a kid, I specifically had teeth removed so that I would not have to have my wisdom teeth taken out.
It was at this point that I wanted a second opinion.
In addition to the whole wisdom teeth removal, I also wanted a second opinion on the Invisalign, as my bottom teeth were now hitting the back of my front teeth.
So, the new dentist I went to told me straight off the bat that I did NOT need my wisdom teeth removed AND that Bedford Dental had botched the Invisalign.
I was advised that there were several DANGERS in having my wisdom teeth removed at this point in my life. I was shown xrays and explained in detail why I DID NOT need my wisdom teeth removed.
I had to have the entire Invisalign process done AGAIN to fix what had been done at Bedford Dental.
Oh, and to add injury to insult...
My new dentist asked how my deep cleaning went during my first visit. I was caught off guard, as I had no deep cleaning done. For those of you who do not know, a "deep cleaning" is when the dentist goes quadrant by quadrant. It's an intense, multi-appointment, expensive process.
I asked them what they were talking about, and they told me that Bedford Dental had billed my insurance for a "deep cleaning" which is multiple times more expensive than a regular cleaning.
I never heard from them again about the hundreds of dollars I had paid for my teeth whitening which was never done.
Alas, I almost forgot to mention their appointment and cancellation policy. I like to call my appointment in, as I want to check my work schedule first. Well, they just made appointments for me, did not tell me, and then charged me a cancellation/no show fee! This happened twice until I firmly told them to stop doing this.
I should also point out that several times, I was forced to wait when I was on time for appointments. I actually witnessed the dentist whizzing into the parking structure on several occasions. Late, no apologizes given.
I felt it necessary to report my experience here to warn others.
Naysan, in my opinion, acts like a creepy, untrustworthy used car salesman.
ps...
I'm shocked to see how many people had a similar experience to mine, but their reviews were filtered? Again, I highly suggest that anyone considering going here read the filtered reviews.
Another Yelp review aptly sums up Bedford Dental,
"Bedford Dental is like going to Jiffy Lube. You go in for a $50 oil change and they tell you what you really need is hundreds of dollars worth of "additional" work."

I've now received threats of frivolous legal action via SAGHIAN LAW FIRM, PC for daring to report my negative experiences at Bedford Dental Group here on yelp. I feel like I am being bullied and that this place, in my opinion, behaves in a shady manner.

In regards to the response.
Dishonest and pathetic. A real used cars salesman. read more
