    Very over priced. Not very thorough. Took one x-ray and dentist spent five minutes on me. They wanted a hundred dollars. Not gonna happen!

    I am deeply disappointed by the lack of care, professionalism, and administrative competence at…read morethis office. My insurance provider directly booked this appointment for me. Yet, after calling me back the staff stopped because they claim they couldn't find my information. I was forced to sit in an open room for 30 minutes, handling their administrative work by calling my insurance company myself while other patients watched. Even after my insurance was successfully verified, I was hit with an astronomical request for $3,000 out of pocket. It felt as though no actual effort was made to work with my benefits. Ultimately, I chose to walk away and I am incredibly glad I did. The very next day, my insurance company reassigned me to a different dental office. That practice effortlessly coordinated with my insurance, completed all the necessary work, and my total out of pocket cost was $0. It is truly disheartening that a healthcare provider would prioritize a massive, unnecessary up front payment over patient care and proper insurance coordination. I am sharing this so others can avoid the same exhausting and stressful experience. Proceed at your own risk and beware.* Update 6/9/2026: Months after walking away without ever having a single piece of work done, I suddenly find a bill from them sitting in my email. It is deeply disappointing to see a business operate this way. To send out random, unearned invoices months later and hope people just pay them without looking is incredibly dishonest. I truly hope people see this review and take it as a warning.

    I rarely leave negative reviews, especially because my first appointment with Dr. Ledger was…read moreexcellent. He was warm, friendly, and made me feel completely at ease. Going into my first filling, I actually felt confident because of how positive that initial experience had been. Unfortunately, today's appointment was the complete opposite. From the moment he walked into the room, he was cold and dismissive. I tried to joke that I wasn't ready yet, hoping to ease my nerves, but he didn't respond. I reminded him that I get very shaky from local anesthetic, and instead of offering reassurance, he said, "You've had a lot of dental work. This is all we've got. You'll be fine." During the procedure, he placed and tightened the thin metal matrix band around my tooth. As soon as it was tightened, I could clearly feel it digging and stabbing into my gum line. This wasn't pressure--it was sharp, localized pain exactly where the band was pressing against my gum. I told him I was in pain, but he argued that it was "just pressure." No, it was pain. I tried to explain that it genuinely hurt, but he became irritated and told me there was nothing he could do about it. The pain continued the entire time the band was in place. At that point, I stopped saying anything and just lay there with tears running down into my ears while he continued working. His incredibly kind assistant quietly wiped away my tears and showed me more compassion than the person performing the procedure. After the anesthetic wore off, my gum remained sore, and I now have a cut along my gum line. After the procedure, instead of apologizing or acknowledging that I had a painful experience, Dr. Ledger asked if I had generalized anxiety. I told him no. It felt like he was trying to blame my reaction on anxiety instead of accepting that I had repeatedly told him I was in pain. I told him I would never come back. His response was, "Really? Wow." He then walked out of the room repeating, "Wooow." I want to be very clear that every other member of the office was wonderful. The front desk staff, hygienist, and assistant were all kind, compassionate, and professional. They deserve five stars. I genuinely feel bad that they have to work with what can only be described as a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde personality. I know Dr. Ledger personally responds to his reviews, so I'll say this directly: Do better. Patients shouldn't have to argue with their dentist about whether they're feeling pain. If a patient tells you something hurts, listen. Even if there's no alternative, empathy costs nothing. No one should leave a routine filling appointment in tears, be left with an injured gum, and then have their experience dismissed as anxiety. I told you from the very beginning that I was uncomfortable and afraid of dental work. Instead of helping me through that, you made one of my biggest fears come true.

    We Do Not Recommend Bright Now! Dentist of Springhill!…read more I had a very frustrating visit to Bright Now! Dental & Orthodontics in Spring Hill. From the moment I walked in, the staff seemed unorganized and unprofessional. I had an appointment scheduled that they couldn't find even though I showed them the confirmation email and text reminder, but I still had to wait for over 30 minutes past my appointment time before being seen. The receptionists weren't very friendly or welcoming either. She was extremely distracted by the music videos on her phone and facebook. When I finally got in, the experience just got worse. The office was dirty, and it didn't look like it had been cleaned properly in a while. The waiting area had trash on the floor, and the examination rooms didn't seem much better. On top of that, the dental tools they used looked dirty, crusty and unsterilized, which made me feel uncomfortable and concerned about hygiene. The dentist didn't take the time to explain the procedures clearly or listen to my concerns and was just taking on $$$ for what they wanted to. It felt rushed, like they just wanted to get through the appointment as quickly as possible. The office also smelt moldy and felt really stale and uncomfortable, which just added to the negative experience. To make matters worse, I was way overcharged for services I didn't even receive. After calling 12 times and leaving voice mails over a month when I finally reached someone in the office to ask for a refund, they refused to take responsibility and completely brushed off my concerns. I tried speaking to the manager, but she didn't seem to care at all and I was told someone would call me back. It's incredibly frustrating to be treated like this, especially when they are in charge of your health and money. They also tried to upsell unnecessary treatments and were very pushy about it. I didn't feel like my health and well-being were the priority here, just the bottom line. I won't be returning and would definitely recommend finding a different dental practice in the area. If the office was as dirty the day I was there, how clean is the tools they are using in your mouth to drill in your bones and teeth??

    1) I was told by the staff that my insurance would only pay for half a cleaning at a time, and so I…read morehad to schedule two separate appointments to get my teeth cleaned. My copay was close to 100 dollars each time. When I called my insurance company about it and they told me that this was untrue; they pay for a complete cleaning at one time. 2) Then I received a bill in the mail for $290 with a letter saying my insurance refused to cover this particular bill. I called my insurance company and they said they never received such a bill. 3) I had a temporary crown put on while I waited for a permanent crown to be made. When the assistant tried to remove the temporary she couldn't get it off so went and got a stronger instrument. Using that managed to get the temporary off and also to break the remaining bit of tooth that was supposed to support the permanent crown. The dentist installed the crown anyway, but it is very loose and moves easily causing my gums to be irritated and even bleed sometime. That was never addressed. It's really hard to eat anything this way! 4) Xrays revealed a cavity under an old crown, but the dentist left it, instead scheduling several other procedures including another 2-part cleaning (so it was 2, or actually 4 cleaning appointments in one year). In the mean time the cavity became infected and when I called the office about it, I was directed to go the the webpage and request an emergence appointment. I did and was told that they would to call me and schedule an appointment. I waited two weeks, but never heard back. This afternoon I called another dentist who has me scheduled for an emergency visit tomorrow morning. I would not recommend Bright Now Dental.
