El Centro Dental is the used car salesman of dentistry. First thing they wanted was my insurance benefits. I have $900 allowance and it was amazing the dentist determined I needed $880 worth of treatments. The most over priced X-ray and cleaning I ever had, $180. And the poorest cleaning. I had been to a dentist 9 months prior with no issues. STAY AWAY!!! read more

Four years ago, I went to El Centro Dental at 1111 Fourth Street, El Centro, CA to have a Root Canal performed along with the application of a crown to my lower left molar (tooth no. 19). As I did not have dental insurance, I paid in excess of $600.00 for this procedure. Recently, I have been experiencing sensitivity and discomfort in this same tooth which had the Root Canal, so I requested an unscheduled appointment to my Dentist, here in San Diego. After performing a thorough examination and preparing for crown replacement on the tooth in question, he discovered El Centro Dental had only filled two of the four roots. Due to this unsatisfactory work, he referred me to an Endodontist for further examination and possibly another Root Canal procedure - to correct the first. The specialist came to the same conclusion and therefore required the procedure be completed again. The result of these procedures has cost me an additional $1,600.00. Confirmed by both my Dentist and the Endodontist, I'm very unsatisfied with El Centro Dental's workmanship read more

Complete scam artists. My husband's workers comp claim was denied due to their lack of timely action. Dr. Siman never completed his portion despite my husband calling and speaking to him multiple times and receiving false promises. They have also attempted to bill our insurance for services not provided that we wouldn't have needed, and are now calling for the first time well over a year after we stopped going there trying to hit us up for $300 for 6 minor fillings when we have good dental insurance and the fillings should have been covered (and probably were) back when they were done. Stay away from this dumpster fire of a dental office! read more

I cannot believe this place is still open! They put they're ads on the radio about Dr. Eddie Siman, but I've never even seen this guy! In fact, I went in for the 1st time in 4 years cause of a toothache, and in 3 appointments met 2 different dentists which i asked BOTH OF THEM for their names and got no answer. The only reason i know of Dr. Santos was because of the prescription.At an appointment, as I was waiting in the lobby, saw one of the dental assistants roll her eyes at a patient. When i went in to see the dentist, i waited 3 hours for him to prescribe Ibuprofen and Clindamycin with no pain pills. whatever though. I left and scheduled for them to extract my tooth, and when i said i wasnt able to go the NEXT day, Maria, the medical office specialist, said "OH MY GOD ARE YOU SERIOUS!". So i went and had my tooth extracted and they put sutures. I was scheduled to go back again a week later to remove the sutures ONLY. I called in because i had an appointment with IVHA the same day after my 10:30 dentist appointment, and a staff member told me it would take TEN MINUTES, so i didn't think it'd be a big deal to take my boyfriend and my 2 small children. WELL, when they called me in, i sat and waited for about half hour when MARIA called me to talk about my insurance plan. I decided i didn't want any minor work (deep cleansing, cavities) done and wanted a tooth for the one removed being that my insurance only covers 1000.00 a year. She went to talk to her office manager and apparently they decided they would take care of 4 cavities NO CHARGE. I ask her if i can have my sutures removed and make another appt for the fillings BECAUSE i had another appointment elsewhere. Well, Maria decided to take it upon herself to reach for her desk phone and ask for the number to the IVHA so i can let them know i'd be out by 1! I couldn't believe it. What blew my mind was after 30 shots of lidocaine and it being 1:30 the dr STILL hadn't done ANYTHING! I got up and asked her to reschedule, and she said "Oh, you're next" I left that freakin place at 2:30. That's not even the worst part. Later on that night, i heard one of the fillings crack. I ignored it and ate dinner that night only to have severe pain. I called El Centro Dental the next day and asked if i can go in so they can fix it. They said sure, it was probably uneven. I went to their office and explain to the dental assistant that i heard a crack and i have pain, and even SHE said that's not normal. I explained the same thing to the dr, and all he said was "okay" got the drill and made it "even". I left that place in MORE PAIN. A few days later i scheduled another appointment with another local dentist only to find out that my filling WAS cracked AND leaking bacteria!!!!! AND Maria had billed my insurance for the fillings THAT WEREN'T EVEN DONE PROPERLY! In fact, my new dentist removed the filling and said as a dentist he can't believe the shotty work that was done and that he'd write a letter to my insurance for a complaint. PLEASE PLEASE DO NOT GO TO EL CENTRO DENTAL! read more
