The anesthesiologist Meryl was so gentle and I had very little pain getting the shot. Anna my assistant to Dr B held my hand and told me to breathe. When I was numb Dr B came in and had the area to be worked on prepped and began to extract the tooth. He took great care keeping the area clean and dry. He packed the area with new bone and tissue to plan for an implant as I have no chewing teeth on the left side. Dr B stitched the area up and prescribed a rinse to ward off infection and gave me antibiotics. Will see Dr B next week. The whole process was relatively painless and I was well taken care of by the staff. Best ever dentist and office.

I never thought I would get to a point where I felt emotionally exhausted, overwhelmed, and…read morecompletely unlike myself. There were days when anxiety, stress, and self-doubt seemed impossible to overcome. Thankfully, reaching out to Dr. Lopur changed everything. From our very first session, he made me feel heard, understood, and genuinely cared for. His compassionate approach and professional guidance helped me navigate some of the most difficult moments in my life. With time, I regained my confidence, found healthier ways to cope, and started feeling like myself again. The progress I've made would not have been possible without his support. If you're struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, or personal challenges, I highly recommend Dr. Lopur. (415) 859-3976 Thank you, Dr. Lopur, for helping me find my way again.

Wife & I have had problems in the past with some of the local dental offices. We did lots of…read moreresearch before making our decision to choose Academy Dental. We were very happy with each phase of our first day with this company. They set us up with their 1st available appointment that was over a month out, but put us on a call earlier list if there is a cancellation. This was great for us, because as retirees we could be available at a days notice. Both of us got calls to come in earlier than our scheduled appointments. Front desk staff were very efficient at processing Maggie & I as 1st time patients. The dental team makes the 1st appointment 2hrs long to do a very thorough exam. They want your input to get your level of involvement in the dental care process. The equipment they have is top of the industry standard. It gives the patient a good view of dental issues, allowing a more knowledgeable choice by patient & Dentist. We never felt pressured to additional care that wasn't truly required at the present time. We were given a break down priority list of items needed & told they would work with us on payment steps based on the priority list. Even given discounts on how payments can be made. I see them on Monday for 1st step in fixing some of my issues. We highly recommend this Dental Care Family

I am giving this location one star solely because the clinical staff who took care of my teeth and…read morethe initial phone receptionist were polite and kind. Otherwise, they deserve zero stars for their completely unprofessional front desk behavior and terrible management. I took a half-day off work for a 3:30 PM appointment. While I was already frustrated by being charged at every consecutive visit, I asked the front desk staff member, Cole, for a clear explanation of the billing. He gave me a completely cold reception. While we were trying to resolve a payment issue due to an expired card, I called their office line to find an alternative way to pay. While explaining to the phone representative that the front desk wasn't explaining the charges clearly, Cole interrupted and defensively snapped that he had already explained it. It was incredibly rude and unprofessional. While we both may have been having a stressful day, his customer service was completely unacceptable. Hoping to resolve the situation, I tried to schedule an appointment with the manager last Thursday to explain what happened. I was promised a callback from management that never came. Instead, when I arrived for my scheduled appointment the following week, I was told they had canceled my appointment and would no longer service me. While I respect that businesses have their own policies and I have no desire to return, their complete lack of communication and failure to address a customer service issue is deeply disappointing. My advice to anyone visiting this clinic: If you are having a stressful day, need billing clarity, or simply have questions about where your money is going--do not ask. If you question them or ask too many questions, expect to be dropped as a patient

This review is a long time coming. My dentist retired in 2018 and I went to Byron Wall because one…read moreof his specialties was TMJ. I had 5 abfractions, where a small piece of the tooth has broken loose due to clenching. Wall was going to fill the abfractions, but also wanted to grind my teeth to fix the clenching. I was told, "I just do a very minimal grinding, about the width of a hair, and it can make a huge difference, this allows the jaw to relax, and then you won't clench and cause more abfractions. " I agreed to only have the abfractions filled, and to wait on the grinding, but I was told that I would have to sign a release that if they did not do the grinding, then the fillings might fall out, and they would not be responsible. The fillings were horrible, big globs of material that were very rough and jagged. There was no way to floss as it would get tangled in the jagged filling material. And because of the grinding he did, now I was scrapping my teeth on one side of my mouth. I returned several times, and each time he said that more griding was needed. He tried to sand down the excess material on the fillings, but this was impossible to get smooth. Neither process worked. I had difficulty getting through to Byron Wall, he is very busy, and it is difficult to get him to listen. The clenching was worse, now I had pain radiating to my eye and head. When I chew on the right side, my teeth scrape tother on the left side. Then I was told, "Sometimes it takes up to a year of grinding to get things to be right." I spent $2,411 with Byron Wall. Now I had to find a TMJ specialist to fix the new problem created by Wall where I scrape on one side when I eat. And to fix the horrible fillings he put in. I asked for a refund. Byron Wall refused. In a letter he said that he had recommended crowns and that I had refused. Crowns for what? Crowns were never discusssed. He said he performed all that I had asked him to do. I left Byron Wall and became extra cautious. I met with these dentists: Alicia Abeyta, Greg Sanchez, David Willoughby, Wayne Luco, and Robert Supple. Everyone of these dentists said the fillings done by Wall would all have to be removed and redone. They could not understand why he would put such big globs on my teeth-- Willoughby said that one of the globs was like a cave--a place for a cavity to start. Robert Supple said that he can fix the clenching and hopefully the chewing problem created by Wall. He said that grinding the teeth before getting the jaw aligned and stable is backwards. I said that one of the reasons I went to Byron Wall is that he was named Dentist of the Year. One of these five dentists said, "Unfortunately people put value to that when a dentist can pay to be dentist of the year." It has taken a very long time to recover from the work of Byron Wall. I would have given zero stars if that were available. David Willoughby removed and re-filled all of the five fillings done by Wall. Willoughby said the standard is, "smooth as glass" and that's what Willoughby did. Robert Supple was fabulous had helped me tremendously with the clenching and scrapping one one side created by Wall.

I've been a patient of Dr. Babilonia's since she took over the practice at Smiles That Work, which…read moreI think was about 2 years ago. Everyone in this office is kind, professional, and always puts you at ease with whatever you're having done. Their office hours are very accommodating, with early morning and evening appointments available if you need them. I've seen them several times over the last couple of years for everything from cleanings, to cavities, and more. Then, yesterday, August 7, 2020, I tripped over a small gate in our backyard, landing face first on our concrete walkway, damaging several front teeth in the process. I called their emergency number, and Dr. Babilonia answered right away. She asked me to text her a picture of my teeth, and upon seeing the picture, decided I needed to be seen by an endodontist, as the injury was more severe than she could care for in her office. Luckily, her husband, Dr. Hochberg, is an endodontist with a practice located near Montgomery and Pennsylvania. Agreeing that immediate treatment was crucial, she and her husband met us (I was in no shape to drive so my boyfriend took me) at his office within 45 minutes. Let me repeat that, just so it's perfectly clear. Dr. Babilonia and her husband came in on a Friday night, in the middle of a pandemic, to help me. Now you may think, well, that's their job, and sure, I wouldn't disagree with you, but they could easily have said, you know what, given the extent of the injury to your teeth and mouth, it's probably better if you go to the ER. That would not have been an unreasonable call to make. But they didn't. They gave up their Friday night to help me instead. Throughout the whole experience they were both calm, calming (I was a little freaked out), consultative, and clearly concerned about my physical, and emotional well-being. I'm going to leave a separate review on the page for Dr. Hochberg's business (Endodontic Associates of Albuquerque) as well, but I want to make sure I say how impressed I have always been with Dr. Babilonia, her staff, and her practice. Last night's emergency just solidified what I already suspected. These are good people, doing a good job, and taking care of their community. If you're looking for a dentist, you can't go wrong with Smiles That Work.

"This is totally painless." Then, as I settled into my thoughts -- because Stephanie wasn't a talker -- I realized I should be employing this conversational approach to lots of situations in life. I mean, it pretty much guarantees better-than-average everything, right? "I know you're just getting started, but you're quite possibly the greatest house painter I've ever witnessed." "Wait, just a moment, before you move to my shoulders, I need you to know that this is the most epic massage I've ever experienced -- and I've had my share of deep tissue work, let me tell you." "Is it just me or are you an absolute stud with those hedge clippers?" Figured I'd pass along this little life Pro Tip, you're welcome. So yeah, when you set up your first appointment here, go with Stephanie, she's completely painless, start to finish. During the pandemic you can also anticipate arriving early and calling the office from your car. Stephanie will come outside when she's ready to take you in, and you'll be impressed by their Covid protocol, including the HEPA filtered air, double- and triple-masked staff, and sanitizing requests. "Judging by your expert cement mixing technique, I'm going to guess you started doing this at what, maybe age five?"

I was in Albuquerque with my girlfriend for the Christmas/New Years holiday and I started to have…read moretooth pain in one of my molars. I tried pain killers and a filling repair kit but I found only limited relief. After three days I couldn't take it any longer. Not willing to ruin my whole vacation with tooth pain I started looking for a dentist that could take me for some emergency intervention. We found this dentist fairly close to where we were staying and we called them. They understood our situation and got us in for an early afternoon appointment. We arrived early to fill out paperwork and I told them I would be paying via Credit Card and getting reimbursed by my Health Savings Plan. They told me they would provide all the paperwork I needed to get reimbursed. They were very courteous and professional and I didn't have to wait long after I finished the paperwork. I was escorted into a room and seated quickly. The dental assistant walked me through the process to take an x-ray of my problem tooth. My wait for the doctor (dentist) was equally short. He came in after 10 minutes and introduced himself as Doctor Long (C. Ross Long, DDS) and proceeded to ask me questions about my situation. He looked at the x-ray and explained to me very clearly what was going on. He showed me what was left of my old filling (around 30 years old), and the temporary patch job that I did with the filling kit. He told me I did a great job patching the whole where part of the filling came out, too good in fact because it trapped bacteria inside the tooth. The bacteria over several days grew and had nowhere to go except push on the root which was the cause of my pain. He explained that he would remove the old filling, my temporary filling, clean everything out, do a partial root canal, then patch it all back up and I would be good to go until I got back home to have a crown put on. He told me that my gums were healthy and that my dentist would have no problem finishing the root canal. He injected me with novacaine and told me to sit tight until I was numb...about 20 minutes. Then the doctor with his capable assistant made short work of my situation. Within 30 minutes they were done and I was sitting up in the chair. The doctor told me he wouldn't charge me for the x-ray and that the whole procedure came to $189.00. Wow, what service and what a great deal. If I ever find myself in Albuquerque, I know where I want my dental work done. Thank you Doctor Long and North Coors Dental.
