This place is ALL ABOUT THE MONEY, so unless you have plans to get lots of work done, keep looking…read more Hoping to establish as a new patient, made appointments for spouse and myself, requesting first appointment to be a cleaning. We are seniors, hoping of course to hold on to and take care of the teeth we have. Neither of us were currently having any issues, not looking to have work done. You are in a chair just a few feet away from the other patients , separated by a partition, not even private offices. The 'hard sell' pitch began immediately with the hygenist informing me of all of the work that needed to be done, starting with a 'deep cleaning'. I explained that the deep cleaning would not be necessary, just a regular cleaning, as I have always had regular cleanings done every 6 months. This set the tone for the visit as she was unhappy about the refusal of the deep clean, so she became short and rude. Took an absolutely insane number of xrays, and then proceeded to put all of them up on a computer screen for you to see 'all the work that needs to be done'...tooth by tooth...the exam went on and on. Finally the dentist makes a 5-minute appearance, and as soon as he looked in my mouth said 'crown, crown, crown, new bridge, crown.....' At 7 crowns I lost count... Then leaves. The hygenist is now annoyed because she is being forced to 'clean my teeth'. She did not use tools, instead used a drill! It was rough, it was painful, rushed and she didn't make any apologies...said it was because I needed that "Deep Clean". Water sprayed all over my cheeks, chin and ran down my neck and face because she was in a hurry. She did a poor job, didn't even clean my bridgework. Our entire time there took 2 hours. over $4,000 worth of work needed once they gave the summary, and that was just the beginning of the work they were suggesting. Meanwhile, The best part of the appointment? My spouse's experience was identical, except he didn't speak up and refuse the 'Deep Cleaning', so after all his xrays-pictures-lecture-5-minute dentist visit, he just layed in the chair and chatted with the hygenist who told him well we won't clean your teeth today, because we're going to do that deep cleaning later. HIS two-hour appointment was simply for an insane amount of x-rays and no cleaning. Not one bit of work done on his teeth. Ridiculous. RUN, don't walk, away from this place. It's a money train.

My daughter went in to have one thing done that would have still been covered. They took it upon themselves to fix other things while she was there, WITHOUT MY CONSENT. My daughter heard one lady ask to check the insurance benefits first while the other just shrugged it off because it needed to be done anyway. Guess who gets stuck paying for the entire charge!? They are very expensive, they suggest you get everything done possible, and now I read that there were some dental license issues. I'm glad I have found a much better dentist (and more price appropriate) since then. http://www.saukvalley.com/2013/01/24/state-suspends-dentists-drug-license/a6q7k1o/

He was very kind, numbed me up, checked my pain several times, and told me exactly what would happen. The process went exactly as described and he showed me the tooth after.
