Horrible experience and will not be going back. Went it and it was odd at 9am I was the only person…read morein the entire building I called weeks ago and they said they were fully booked out and only time I could get in and not a soul was there but me and 4 others who worked there. Got seen and did my X-rays got sat in the chair and seen the dentist. I was there to get my bottom dentures started. First off he comes in and ask if I want to pull my bottom teeth, I said yes pull them all I'd like to just finish what I started, then he proceeded to ask if I had top dentures.... At this point I'm confused so I move on. He told me we would need to get my insurance approval perfect great fine with that. Don't really have a choice, next He goes off and says let's just do the surgery pull all the bottom teeth then heal up then submit the request to approve my dentures. I said absolutely not. Get approved then do the extractions around the time the temporary dentures would be in so I had them to wear. So I could heal and eat. After that he agreed to do that but we would need to do a mold of my bottom teeth. So we go ahead and do so, in the process he brings this liquid mold half way down the hall to the room I was in proceeded to make the worst mess all over my face shirt and pants. I ask if there was anything I could use to clean up the mess he told me no that I needed to use what I could see and not dig through anything. No water to rinse my mouth nothing. After all that I go to talk about process and what it looked like because I know all places are different, receptionist and dentist both said they would numb my bottom jaw and do full extraction while awake. I said HELL NO. absolutely not. You are extracting my entire bottom jaw, wisdom teeth that are impacted coming in sideways and you wanna just "numb my jaw" while fully awake while you yank out everything. Nooooo. The dentist got all rude and started to refuse me a referral to an oral surgeon. I left. That was the worst customer service and dentist I've ever been too. Thankfully I have a few people I know who are dentist and they said oral surgery like I would need for my teeth being numb is extremely dangerous and no recommendation at all for the course of action. I will never be going here again.

But, now today I receive a certified mailed letter (MIND YOU) that they are withdrawing from further care for my family's dental needs. So, my original comment will go back up and stay up and WILL NOT COME BACK DOWN AND YOU CAN SEE EVERYONE HOW THEY CAN BE. 4/29/2025 Post: Very unhappy with our services lately since Dr. Whitley has became part of their practice. He does not put the patient first. My daughter had an appt. yesterday and instead of him seeing her like we were originally scheduled after being rescheduled due to them because of spring break and they wanted off he let his secretary for billing (don't know her exact billet) see us instead and didn't even talk or speak to us after I had to jump through hoops after requesting off work the prior week and then rearranging my sons schedule so he can get my daughter and bring her to the clinic and me hurry and leave work to meet them there so I can talk with him about my daughters teeth and then he doesn't even see her or me. Very disappointing and disrespectful. Then the billing lady tells me that the part that I signed before that was $1100 for her teeth is now going to be $2000 and they wanted off to do it under the table and don't send it to the insurance company. Yeah. Okay. So, I have been going to this dental office since early 2000s and never ever got treated like this before. Believe me, me and my family will be looking for a new dental office and you and your family should be as well. Because, they are out to charge you for everything you got and not to help you at all. Believe that. Sad part is, I love the front staff. This letter informed us that our family's dental care would be withdrawn, the issue only involved my daughter and me. My two adult sons, one has different insurance, nor my other son, my husband, my innocent daughter, had anything to do with the matter. Eastern Carolina Dental, you've outdone yourselves.

Dr. Futrell came highly recommended to me from my orthodontist in Wilmington about 7 years ago…read more That orthodontist is one of the best in the state and he spoke very highly of Dr. Futrell and said I should try him to fix the problem I was having because he knew personally how good his work is. I had cavity that was drilled out improperly at my previous dentist and it was causing all sorts of issues for me. That was 7 years ago and I haven't seen anyone else since. I couldn't be happier with how thorough, professional, and friendly Dr. Futrell and his entire staff have been. He doesn't make you feel rushed even though you know he's very busy. I would recommend him to anyone. If you're searching for a dentist this is who you need.

Dr. Darrah was absolutely incredible--calm, informative, and reassuring throughout the entire process. He clearly explained all of my options, and the extraction procedure itself was quick and completely painless. I felt genuinely comfortable and cared for the entire time. Jackie, the dental assistant, was wonderfully kind and supportive, and the front desk staff were thorough, friendly, and made navigating my insurance questions a breeze. I honestly can't believe how positive this experience was. Swansboro Family Dentistry is truly a hidden gem. While part of me wants to keep it that way, I think anyone in need of emergency dental care--or any dental work at all--deserves to know about this amazing team!
