THE TALE OF THE STARFISH It All Started When…read more... The story of the man who saw a little girl throwing starfish back into the sea, speaks to my experience at Family Dental Care. Difference can be made with one. You must just make the first step. I was given their name to contact from a friend. After putting off a call for an appointment, due to the shame of the condition of my mouth due to health issue and PDSD from past Dental care at a dentist office in another state, I took a jump of faith and made the call. They got me in the same day to look at my mouth. The receptionist last words to me on the phone was "we look forward to helping you." I thought you say that now but wait until you all see what I am dealing with. Hot mess! Needing a lot of care (a couple broken teeth, decay , and more dental problems) they meet me where I am at and said we are going to fix this. We got you. The care the dentist (Doctor and the dental assistant (this young lady has the biggest heart for her patients! At 23 she makes you feel like you can exhale, she has you!) are giving me is nothing short of life saving! This mother of 5 with one child that has chronic life-threatening illness, another child with Developmental delays / medical issues, and Oma of 2! the best grandsons in the world! I Have put off the care I have needed, to care for my family. And the doctors, and staff at Family Dental Care have stepped up and are giving me the care I need. No matter if you need a cleaning or intense dental care, I say take that step into the office of Family Dental Care. They have you covered. Story of the star fish... A young girl was walking along a beach upon which thousands of starfish had been washed up during a terrible storm. When she came to each starfish, she would pick it up, and throw it back into the ocean. People watched her with amusement. She had been doing this for some time when a man approached her and said, "Little girl, why are you doing this? Look at this beach! You can't save all these starfish. You can't begin to make a difference!" The girl seemed crushed, suddenly deflated. But after a few moments, she bent down, picked up another starfish, and hurled it as far as she could into the ocean. Then she looked up at the man and replied, "Well, I made a difference for that one!" The old man looked at the girl inquisitively and thought about what she had done and said. Inspired, he joined the little girl in throwing starfish back into the sea. Soon others joined, and all the starfish were saved.

I came to this office after switching employer insurance. If you're considering this dentist, I…read morestrongly recommend doing thorough research beforehand--I wish I had. Initially, I had a positive experience. They had plenty of availability and got me in quickly. At my first visit for a consult and cleaning, they offered to fix a cavity on the spot, which I appreciated. However, after completing their treatment plan, I began experiencing pain and discomfort in one of the fillings they had done. I returned to have it adjusted, but two months later, the same filling broke while I was eating. When I went back in pain, they informed me that the tooth was fractured and would likely need a root canal. Instead of addressing the infection risk, they decided to place a crown first to see if a root canal could be avoided. They put on a temporary crown but did not prescribe antibiotics. Within 48 hours, I developed an abscess that spread up my gumline, landing me in the ER for emergency oral surgery to remove the tooth. I sincerely believe the staff are good people, but I didn't feel the level of care was as intentional as it should have been. At the very least, prescribing antibiotics could have prevented my infection from worsening, saving me unnecessary pain and medical expenses. Now, I've spent $500 on a crown I can't use, plus the cost of an ER visit, emergency surgery, and post-op care. If you can avoid coming here, I strongly recommend doing so. If you're someone they choose to prioritize, you might have a better experience--but unfortunately, that wasn't the case for me.

Then I went to Dr. Carter because Dr. Sledge was booked and he said I had no cavities. Went back to Dr. Sledge and she said I had to get the others taken care of. Switched to a completely different dentist and they said I had no cavities. I trusted her and paid all that money just to have teeth ruined for no reason. ALWAYS get a second opinion.
