Advanced Dentistry was one of the few places that were taking new patients and is close to my…read morehouse, so we thought we would try them out. Both my wife and I were seen by some of the nicest hygienists we've ever met. They strike a good balance of making us feel comfortable by talking, but not talking so much that we feel obligated to try and talk while their hands are in our mouths! They always remember something about our work or family etc when we come back and it shows they really do care. I've been back for two crowns, a root canal, a filling, and a mouth guard scan and each time the staff is just so incredibly nice. I really appreciate how they are sensitive to busy schedules and will see you immediately upon your arrival and do everything as quickly as they can. Dr. Kwon was nothing special, but you only get a few seconds with a dentist at a normal appointment anyway so it wasn't a huge deal. My biggest complain is unique to surgery-related issues, in that there is essentially no way to contact the Dr outside of his 3 day work week. In theory you can email him, but he doesn't seem to reply to those. This is an issue when you have a dental "emergency" which might disrupt your whole week but isn't extreme enough to go to an emergency room.

The members of this practice were intrusive with personal space and extremely harsh over minor…read morelateness. During appointments, I had to ask two different dentists and a dental assistant to stop touching and patting me throughout treatment. It was not a single incidental touch, but continuous unnecessary physical contact on my arm or shoulder, which was highly unusual and felt invasive. A hygienist also used my chest as a resting surface for her instruments, dropping tools onto it repeatedly during cleaning. I found the experience physically uncomfortable and jarring. I continued going there for several years because, to their credit, they eventually noted my discomfort in my chart and the unwanted touching stopped. However, at my last appointment I was 7 minutes late because of an unexpected domestic issue that arose as I was leaving the house. I called ahead to let them know. When I arrived, I was told they could no longer see me as a patient because I was "always" late, which was simply untrue. I had often arrived on time and had also waited 20 to 30 minutes for the office when it was running behind, including one occasion when the wait was closer to 40 minutes. What felt especially unfair was that I was never given any warning about lateness policies before being abruptly dismissed from the practice after arriving for my appointment. There were no prior conversations, notices, or written warnings in their appointment communications. Being refused treatment and permanently dropped as a patient on the spot over being 7 minutes late was disproportionately harsh and humiliating. A basic courtesy conversation or warning beforehand would have made the situation feel far less unnecessarily severe. Overall, I found the practice disrespectful of personal boundaries and needlessly punishing toward me as a longtime patient.

My wife first went to her, and…read moreremarked that she was one of the best dentists she had ever seen, and convinced me to go (after an 8-year gap in dental visits). I went, and was very happily surprised. The office is easy to find, parking is sufficient, and the inside is very clean and modern. During the current Covid pandemic, patient safety is obviously a high priority as well, with a quick phone interview asking relevant questions, and a temperature checks at your car before you enter the building. All the hygienists we've seen are very friendly and courteous, answering any questions you have. They're also great with kids, as our daughter has gone for the past 4 years and loves it. Having a toddler eager to go to the dentist is not an experience I've heard from others very often, but ours is, which is a testament to their care. One other review mentioned that Dr. Anderton has turned into a greedy businesswoman, due to her not taking the insurance anymore (I assume it's the Penn State dental insurance). I know a little about the situation, and it's definitely not her fault. The issue, as I understand it, is that the insurance changed to require dentists to use some material for cavity fillings that tend to degrade, while Dr. Anderton insists on using high-quality fillings. That led to her not being accepted into the network. However, you can still be reimbursed from an HSA if you have one. In short, Dr. Anderton is the best dentist me, or my family, has ever had, and we'll be her happy patients for as long as we can.

5 star rating for a Dentist office? Who even likes going to the dentist enough to give 5 stars?!…read moreBut seriously, this place deserves it! This office was recommended to me by a co-worker and I couldn't be happier that I chose this place as my dental office. Each and every appointment I have ever had here I have been treated with nothing but the utmost courtesy and respect by the receptionists, hygienist, and dentists. They also have always been on-time for my appointments. I've been to other dentist offices in the area where they like to try and push unnecessary cosmetic treatments on you -- this office does not do that. They will make suggestions based upon what your goals are with your teeth and that is it, but I have never felt uncomfortable here trying to be "sold" on a service or product like I have at other offices. The office itself is very nice and ample parking is available out front and they accept Penn State insurance!

Dr. Pine is a kind and competent orthodontist. I saw him once or twice right after moving to State…read moreCollege for graduate school. I had finished ortho treatment in a different city the year before, and had basically endured almost a year of stress as my previous ortho tried to get my retainer and bite correct. By the time I saw Dr. Pine, I was admittedly a bit exhausted, uncomfortable, and freaked out by dental treatment in general. Dr. Pine and his staff were awesome: they listened to my concerns, followed up with my previous ortho, treated me with respect, and most importantly, the doctor adjusted my removable retainer and got me to a comfortable bite in probably less than 6 weeks. They also fixed my bonded lower retainer which had come loose. I remember everyone I encountered -- from reception to chairside assistants to billing -- being just exceptionally nice. To top it off, it's many years later and I'm in the market for a new retainer since the old one wore out. I e-mailed Dr. Pine from across the country to find out if he had any recommendations, since he's now the only ortho I trust and since I can't exactly fly back to Pennsylvania for appointments. Though he didn't know anyone in my neighborhood personally, he did respond warmly and right away with a couple names he'd gotten from his contacts in the field. True professional, genuine person. Would recommend him to anyone.
