I had a bridge placed July 2025 by Dr Quinttus at Rahn Dental and it was a horrible experience. The…read moretemporary bridge placed for 2 weeks while the permanent was being made caused pain the entire time, which I told him. When I returned to remove it and place the new one I told him I was still in pain and essentially no response. He removed the temp wiped my mouth (without assessing if something else was wrong) and seated the permanent bridge; I've been in pain ever since. The next week I returned and he announced he wanted to do several root canals- to solve the pain problem, I was devastated. I had paid thousands of dollars for a bridge that has hurt to this day and he wanted to do more expensive and painful work. I've seen several endodontists who are unsure which tooth may need a root canal or if that would solve the problem. The prognosis for complete recovery and pain free status is not good and in fact could be this way the rest of my life I do not recommend this dentist or practice. They refused to refund the money for the bridge. Terrible work and customer service.

A former dentist found decay under a crown on xray. Dr Quinttus would pry the crown up at dental…read morevisits with his instruments to observe it. This is ignorant and promotes further decay. He attempted to recrown the tooth. He fractured the tooth severely during the recrown procedure $$. Because of this, Dr Quinttus caused the tooth and jaw to abscess. Dr Quinttus root canaled the tooth 4 months after the crown $$, and then pulled the tooth the very next day $$. Charging me money for each failed procedure. Dr Quinttus never took xrays during any of his procedures. I had to go through several rounds of antibiotics for the abscess, jaw surgery to remove the abscess by a surgeon, and bone grafting of the jaw by a surgeon. I also have permanent nerve damage in that area of my face. Dr Quinttus started to fill an early abscess fistula with an antibiotic to which I'm severely allergic. I had to remind and explain this allergy to him multiple times. He doesn't check your medical chart. Dr Quinttus never communicates his steps or plans of action. He performs the procedure and walks away. He has zero dental skills or communication skills, which is a very dangerous combination for a dentist. By the way, I am writing this review 9 months after Dr Quinttus extracted the abscessed tooth. Due to Dr Quinttus: I suffered jaw bone abscess, continue with severe jaw pain, continue to suffer with problems speaking, and continue to suffer from numbness of the teeth/gums/cheek/lip in that area. Due to Dr Quinttus: I had to miss several days of work. This whole episode was a nightmare. And I still suffer from his damage. Do not go to Rahn Dental! Dr Quinttus is very unskilled, very unprofessional, very dangerous, senile, and needs his license removed immediately. He and Rahn Dental are only out for money. I will continue to share this horrific story of Dr Quinttus with everyone I meet and know. Herbert Head III, Professor of Biological Sciences

I enjoyed my first dental cleaning from Michael Lochtefeld Dental today .

My parents also switched to Michael last fall after getting a second opinion & took care of my father's dental needs right away.

She was so friendly, accommodating and detailed, it truly was the most thorough dental cleaning I've ever experienced. Then Dr Michael came in, also completed a detailed inspection too. Great to know everything was good & scheduled for my next visit in 6 months. Thank you for great service in Kettering, Ohio

Dr. Hallock did not seem too concerned about the bone he left exposed after pulling my bottom teeth. The denture he made was not much of a denture. Too big for my mouth and made lots of sores that were hard to get rid off. I just stopped going and instead went to a dentist that was finally able to make the denture fit and cleared up the sores. I honestly would never use him again and have told friends and family not to go to him.

Nice try getting my review removed, but people deserve to hear the truth…read more Before I made the apt I advised them that I had a referall for a root canal but wanted an extraction instead, & asked if the dentist can perform the extraction to which they said "yes". But after meeting Hallock & seeing his blatant bias viewpoint for root canals, I'm wondering why in the heck I wasn't just referred to an Endodontist in the first place!? First off -- he was so annoyed from the get go but he was the one who was 45 minutes late. Don't be irritated with me when I'm polite & waited patently just because I requested an extraction for my first apt LOL He made unfair assumptions about me being a Holistic quack because I wanted a decayed tooth removed. He asked "how will you eat"? & "why remove it if its not hurting & there's very little infection?" Well DOC, if you would have BOTHERED to listen without making unfair assumptions, sighing & interrupting repeatedly & being so patronizing -- you would know that I've already seen multiple dentists about this tooth for the last 2 years & have had MULTIPLE root canals so I think I've had adequate time to think this over! I didn't appreciate his assumption that I'm making some rash decision. It's not one I made lightly, I even lost weight over this because we should not be pulling our teeth. But we ALSO shouldn't be getting root canals!! So people making these tough yet proper treatment choices need SUPPORT not discouragement! I wanted to get this over with but was instead met with a repetitive lecture. The last dentist who pulled my 2 root canaled/decayed teeth didn't fear monger or try to upsell me like a used car salesman! And FYI -- Credentials do not have a monopoly on knowledge, experience.. OR politeness which is clearly evident in this case. He had the worst bedside manner of any medical "professional" I've ever met & I've met quite a handful! He wanted to make sure I was "informed". Ok Doc well being "informed" is knowing that root canal teeth are DECAYED teeth! But dentists will grind down perfectly HEALTHY teeth to give you veneers while calling YOU crazy for wanting decayed teeth removed??!! OK LOL See where this is going? $$$! He clearly felt threatened & challenged by me actually being informed & choosing health over his bottom line -- so he rushed my appointment before saying he would do the extraction if I wanted. Ummmm ABSOLUTELY NOT! But he knew exactly what he was doing. He wanted me to be uncomfortable so I wouldn't do it. His "expert" opinion is that a 33 year old is too young to remove their teeth & that implants can fail. But wait -- root canals ALSO FAIL! As a matter of FACT the success rates ranging between 70-85% while IMPLANTS in general with proper care have a success rate of up to 98%!!!!! So why on EARTH would a dentist be so ignorant & try to scare me into spending MORE money in the long run to keep a DECAYING tooth when the data clearly shows that it's much healthier & cost effective in the long run to pull it while I'm still young & have a better chance of healing??? I could care less if we disagree or not -- but don't LIE & mislead people! Just because someone makes an unconventional choice doesn't make it wrong. Last but not least, I find it interesting how he URGED me the entire appointment to save that tooth but I literally JUST left an appointment from my new dentist who recommended I remove it after seeing the xray. LOL Interesting?! Point being -- trust your gut! He even gave me an option to put a crown on it instead of an implant so I advise anyone reading this to check out Dr. Zhang from zealous dental.

**Dental "Lost" Disappointing Experience**…read more I had a very disappointing experience at this dental practice, TWICE! Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. First visit, Nov 2023- exam and such at Dental Loft and I'm told I have a cavity and need a filling. I pass on the filling at the time. March 2024- I go to the VA and through all of the poking and prodding and another set of x-rays, they cannot find any evidence of my tooth having a cavity or needing filling. My trust is a bit skewed now but I'm going to give Dental Loft another shot. For the Nov 2023 and May 2024 appointments at Dental Loft, the welcome to the office was great. The staff at the front desk were super friendly upbeat, and very welcoming. They appeared to be glad to be there and exuded a great vibe. They are truly the gold standard for welcoming to an environment like a medical or dental practice and should be commended. Unfortunately, that's where the positive ends and the negative begins. The equipment is clearly outdated, making me question the quality of care. I am a biomedical equipment technician and have done extensive maintenance and repair on literally hundreds of dental chairs and equipment- while this wasn't the worst I've seen, it is definitely in the bottom 50% easily. From the aged look of the equipment, to wires being visible (not dangerous, but very poor aesthetics). Drop the prestige of being at The Greene and go somewhere else where rent is less and update your equipment! It looks like the equipment was installed 20+ years ago and hasn't been touched since. When I finally was seen, the dental hygienist cleaning felt mediocre. She merely checked the box for polishing each tooth, incredibly rushed and not thorough at all barely touching many of them. If you are polishing the teeth, POLISH them, not just barely run across most of them. I think a retraining is in order as it was incredibly lackadaisical. There is probably a time quota which she had to blow out of the water because it was so brief. $149 for the "prophylaxis" was a waste.
