Smiling Oak Dentistry Mount Pleasant, SC…read more Better late than never! I should have written this review a long time ago because Dr. Jeff Gardner and the entire team at Smiling Oak Dentistry have been absolutely outstanding over the years. One of the things I appreciate most is how accommodating they are. If you have a problem, they'll often get you in the same day or the very next day. That kind of customer service is hard to find these days, and it's one of the many reasons I keep coming back. Over the years, Dr. Gardner has taken care of everything from routine cleanings to crowns, implants, and cosmetic dental work. Every experience has been professional, friendly, and pain-free. Recently, I noticed I was losing some enamel on one of my front teeth and was worried it would continue to get worse. Dr. Gardner repaired it, and I was honestly blown away. I still can't believe how perfect it looks! The colour match is absolutely flawless--you genuinely cannot tell where the repair was made. It looks completely natural, and the attention to detail is incredible. That's the kind of craftsmanship that separates a good dentist from a truly exceptional one. The entire team is welcoming, caring, and makes every visit a positive experience. They genuinely take pride in their work, and it shows in every smile that walks out the door. If you're looking for a dentist in the Mount Pleasant area for routine cleanings, cosmetic dentistry, crowns, implants, or just an office that truly cares about its patients, I couldn't recommend Smiling Oak Dentistry more highly. Five stars aren't enough. Three thumbs up from me!

On Saturday night I could tell I had a really problem and everything was swollen etc. I sent her an emergency txt at 5:30am on and was in her chair just a few hours later on Sunday morning. She took the time to extract the tooth, without pain (I'm a terrible wimp when it come to my teeth) and I'm so grateful. It's nice to find people who genuinely care and take the steps to help. We couldn't even get the POS working so she said to just come back tomorrow and pay lol. 10 stars easy.

Had I known this office would make the experience pain free, I would've done it years ago. Dr.Smith is nothing short of amazing. The office staff is friendly and helpful. I highly recommend the PRF if you need to have gum grafting done because it makes a WORLD of difference. I had basically no pain whatsoever after the procedure and my "new" gums look so good. I can't tell you how happy I am about my experience at this office. Dr.Smith and staff deserve ten stars!!!!!

Couldn't count how many numbing shots I got. She hit a nerve a couple times while cleaning and I felt the shooting pain go down my neck. Five days after my last of three sessions of deep cleaning I'm so swollen and it looks like I have a ball protruding from my neck. My jaw starts throbbing and it hurts to swallow in the afternoon and I'm miserable. Completely ruined my yearly vacation with friends. I can only eat soft food and haven't been going to dinner with my friends. Wish I would've known the pain I'd be in. I would have put it off until after. Never got any discharge instructions to take home to let me know what will happen, what to expect and what to look for. They just sent me on my way. Dr. Smith has no compassion and no regard for the pain I've endured the last few days and still am experiencing. I contacted her a couple times via text to let her know what was happening. She told me it was definitely not normal to have the swelling and painful swallowing. And that was it. Never wanted to talk to me about was going on. I asked if it could be infection. She said probably not but still prescribed antibiotics. Nothing for the pain. She seems to think 800 mg of ibuprofen will help the pain. Well, it doesn't. Apparently she has never had the procedure and doesn't know how bad it can hurt. Hopefully in a couple days things will start feeling better.

Dr Claussen Smith and her staff immediately put me at ease. I can say listening to the sounds of the early Beatles while I was there was quite relaxing and took the edge off. Also , Dr Claussen Smith gave me the right amount of anesthetic so that I had very little pain during the procedure. Afterwards, she gave me thorough discharge instructions and her cell number to call for any questions or problems.

I hardly ever write negative reviews. However, I feel that this one is warranted. I went to Kari…read moreRyan Dentistry for routine dentistry needs and annual cleanings. I was told that I needed 2 crowns and a filling. I underwent the initial crown on my tooth about 3 years ago and it did fine for a year, but then it started causing severe pain. I returned to the office for evaluation, but they could not figure out why it was hurting, and so I lived with the pain and not being able to chew on one side of my mouth for over a year. Finally, one day the crown just fell off. It was obviously loose which is why it was hurting for a year. In the interim, I had the second crown and the filling performed about 2 years ago. The second crown color did not match my teeth. I was surprised the the dentist who performed it, either did not catch it at the time, or just decided not to fix it at the time. When I looked in the mirror at the office and clearly noticed the poor matching of the color, the dentist said that to fix it, I could whiten the other teeth so it would match better. However, instead of offering to perform an in-office professional whiting to correct the mistake, she gave me an over the counter product, and then charged me an additional $60 for it. I was dismayed to be paying additional money to correct her mistake. Unfortunately, the filling that was performed at the same time, was sensitive from the day it was performed. I returned that very day to let her know that it did not feel right and was told the sensitivity should resolve with time. I even returned and a different dentist there who also tried to fix it, but the sensitivity never went away. I also had difficulty flossing at that tooth and so I continued to mention it at subsequent cleanings and visits over the course of a year. Dr. Ryan finally performed a revision filling, but it was worse and more sensitive afterwards. No one ever called or checked to see if the symptoms had improved, and by that point, I was not returning to that practice. I then went to another dentistry practice. They revised both the crown that fell off and the filling that was chronically sensitive. I am finally pain free without sensitivy for the first time in almost 2 years. I probably wouldn't have written this except that recently I was sent a bill from Kari Ryan Dentistry. The bill was texted to me of a general nature without specifying what it was for. I texted back that my recent visit for the filling was a revision and Dr. Ryan said that I would not be billed or charged for it. I continued to get the bill and so I called and told them the same. I expected it would be taken care of. However, I continued to get texts and bills without any specific information of what it was for, and now it was overdue. I called again and spoke with the manager and asked what it was for and why I kept getting it. She said that it was a bill from my initial crown that they performed 3 YEARS ago and that they had just forgotten to bill it at the time. This made no sense, but I paid it just to get rid of it. That was the final straw.
