So far, everything I've experienced at Pine Avenue Smiles is a textbook example of best-in-class dental care. The kindness of the receptionist, the care of the hygienist, the knowledge of the dentist, and the diplomacy of the administrative staff made me feel comfortable and at ease with making Pine Avenue Smiles the last dentist I'll ever need in my lifetime. I'm counting on Eric and Dr. Andy to make sure I have the best set of original teeth in the nursing home some day.

The new dentist(s) may be worthy of five stars also but I don't think it's fair that they "inherit" Dr. Ortiz's ratings. They should be required to start from scratch. I'll start by saying I don't tend to frequent anything other than privately owned and operated dental offices. Big corporations usually rotate dentists in and out so you can never develop a relationship with them. I knew Dr. Ortiz had sold his practice but was still working at Smile Design. However, They did not forewarn me prior to my last appointment approximately 6 months ago that Dr. Ortiz was no longer there and I'd be seeing someone new. The whole staff with the exception of 1 person is new. Consistency is what I absolutely LOVED about Center for Smiles. The staff never changed, they all knew you by name, and the atmosphere was like a family. The new staff couldn't even add up my total charge correctly. The receipt showed $86 but she charged my FSA card $88 & it took weeks to resolve getting that $2 put back (because you know an FSA don't play...they need to verify down to the last penny!)

I went to Prestige Dentistry for one simple reason: they were supposedly in network with Aetna…read more When I arrived, I confirmed it again and was told, "Yes, we're in network with Aetna." The difference is significant. In network coverage is 100 percent versus 50 percent out of network. I checked Google reviews and saw glowing feedback. I should have looked at Yelp to read more detailed reviews. As it turns out, only one dentist in the office was in network, not the one who actually worked on me. That led to a long back and forth with the insurance company and no reimbursement. They require you to pay upfront and then supposedly refund you after insurance pays them. I have never experienced that before. With all my medical doctors, I simply pay a copay and the practice collects directly from the insurance company. In my opinion, Prestige Dentistry operates with high pressure, predatory sales tactics and questionable billing practices. The office looks slick and modern, but the experience felt more like a timeshare hustle than a healthcare practice. They have you sign more forms than at a house closing and even try to sell you an extended warranty on their work. I initially went in for a cleaning, and my periodontist had already sent X rays taken a month earlier. That was not enough. They insisted on doing a 360 degree X ray. That imaging was then used to pitch nearly $9,000 worth of dental work. It took months to resolve the in network issue with Aetna. Now, months later, I am receiving a billing statement for $298 with no explanation or detailed breakdown for work that was supposedly completed and paid for months ago. I sent a letter to the office and to David C. Pielak, President of Golden Dental Associates, P.A., which is their legal name. I never received a response, and the statements continue to arrive. The only positive thing I can say is that the staff was nice and friendly. Thankfully, I am back with my longtime family dentist. His office may not be slick or ultra modern, but he is sincere and honest.

When I came home to Florida, none of my usual dentists wanted my case. My GP recommended I see Dr Mehta. Now, I live in St Pete, so Palm Harbor is a bit far, but Dr Mehta worked with me for a month on a series of temporaries before casting a softer gold crown, which I've now had for two years. So my loyalty was certainly earned, but honestly the hygienists here also just do a great job for regular checkups and cleanings.
