All they did was take some x-rays and I never saw the dentist however, the dentist recommended I get two crowns based on the x-rays without even talking to me or looking at my mouth. They sent to the the insurance company and they approved it however one of the teeth that he wanted to put a crown on already has a crown when I went to the scheduled appointment I asked why they recommended crowns they wanted to take x-rays again even though I had already taken x-rays so I refuse to duplicate the x-rays. They said I have to talk to the doctor. I had to wait an hour and a half to see the doctor. He was an hour and a half late finally I asked him to explain why I needed a crowns. He got very agitated and said that his father was a dentist so therefore he was a dentist. After no good explanation as to why he didn't look at my mouth before giving a prognosis I left. I don't trust this Dentist, and I have reported him to the insurance company.

Needless to say I've been to a lot of dentist! I will never forget the first day after all the xrays were taken, she said "let me study your case, I'll call you". When she called, she had design my whole mouth including a changed bite and to my surprise; it was less than half the price that two other dentists had estimated! Right now Dr. Franco is my family dentist. I can easily say, Dr Franco change my life, gave me confidence, and I'm not afraid of smiling any more. Actually I've been told how beautiful my teeth are in more than one occasion! And for me it's become very easy to just simply answer with saying "call my dentist." she also does COSMETIC DENTISTRY and has changed my life.

I never thought I would actually be typing a review about one of the most uncomfortable subjects…read morearound.....Dentistry. Over the years, I've had a lot of teeth pulled and a lot of cavities filled. I hated going to the dentist more than the Grinch hated Christmas. One night several years ago I was referred to Dr. Skaff after I cracked a filling eating a chicken sandwich (pronounced: "san'weesh" in Miami) which sent huge amounts of pain into my jaw. This was not pleasurable, I can assure you! Without ever meeting him before, Dr. Skaff met me at his office, during his day off and fixed me up. I've been a loyal patient ever since and tell everyone that there is not a better dentist out there, period. Dr. Skaff (he prefers the less formal "Dr. David" to his patients) and his staff are top notch and I really should put all of them in my last will and testament for putting up with me over the years! So to anyone reading this, this is my referral to you if you ever have a chicken sandwich/filling dilemma on a Saturday evening. Thanks Dr. Skaff!

Although this place shows up in the search for oral surgeon and this website says "oral surgeon",…read morewhen I showed the referral order from my daughter's dentist to the receptionist, she told me the place is only for dentist's work.

The add is false, the receptionist wasn't nice and I wasted a lot of time. RR

I have been coming here for 2 years now and regret every time. My care on one tooth is finally over…read moreand now i will be looking for another care. The price is different every time and i am sure there is some insurance fraud going on. I have the top tier Delta insurance and they seem to look for all the extras the insurance doesn't cover. I tried going to find the same doctor at another clinic same company and price of the service was less. The crown placed fell off in two days, root canal was not offered and it should had done, when asked to see the X-ray was told i didn't need to see it. As said will not return and i advise to be careful coming here.

I thought I had found my go to dentist but unfortunately due to pushy dental hygienist that's not…read morethe case. Receptionists and Dentist are professional, but the dental hygienist was extremely pushy with a deep cleaning and antibiotic she urged me to get due to periodontal disease that progressed rapidly according to her (not the case). In my gut I knew something was off and went to get two second opinions with another Dentist and an actual Periodontist that I had to pay out of pocket for. Sadly the dental hygienist also alluded to the business pushing her to "sell" as well after I told her I needed time due to financial constraints. I had attended two previous times and brought my husband but the pushiness to what I knew was wrong forever deterred us both from continuing our services. Now I am sadly wondering if the previous work I was pressured into getting last year was even necessary. UPDATE: Alex, the manager, called to argue this review. Didn't provide a single apology for my experience and defending the situation when he wasn't even there. Again, the dental hygienist made false claims stating I had periodontal disease (bone loss). This is not only a serious allegation but a wrong one as confirmed by two actual specialists. They pushed deep cleanings every time I came for a check up and said they've never had a review like this (also wrong if you read). Do your research and stay away from this unprofessional place!

If you are looking for big money $100,000 to $150,000 full mouth Implants, Crowns or Veneers,…read moreDr.Yudah Ari Brenmergui is the dentist for you. He's a capable dentist with all the latest modern equipment to keep pain to a minimum. But if you require smaller, more modest dental services go elsewhere. From the 1950's to the 1990's, this office was occupied by 2 general dentists, but in their final years, their hands grew shaky, one of them passed away, and the one remaining dentist sold his practice to Dr.Benmergui, then passed away less than a year later. Those dentists were good men, but undoubtedy caused their patients some needless pain with their increasingly obsolete equipment.. I'm realistic: we all have to eat, we all like to make money and all doctors and dentists are in business, but Dr.Benmergiu is in BIG BUSINESS. This is one of several things that you may find off putting about Dr.Benmergui's office. They will tend to want to do a lot of additional uneccessary stuff, and some of their teeth cleaning ladies can be sadistic. Dr.Benmergui and the ladies who work for him are a combination of orthodox Jewbans and Cubans, and Anglo customers may find it rude that, even though they are all capable of speaking lightly accented English, that the doctor and his assistants will speak entirely in Spanish while working on you. It is, as if they are talking about you behind your back. I didn't take it personally, and at the end, I said "Even if you had spoken English, I still wouldn't understand what you are talking about"(it was all dentist jargon like A2 and B4) Note: I am not being anti-semetic. I am a secular 3rd generation American of 100% Jewish ethnicity, and I use the term "Jewban" genertically. The doctor is from Venezuela.) There is no doubt that his emphasis on mega buck dentistry was off-putting and cost the office many customers, and business dropped further during the first 2 years of the pandemic. Dr,Benmergui's office has become increasingly desperate. They've started sending junk e-mails to ex-customers. But now, they've crossed over the line to arrogance: they are scheduling appointments for ex-customers WITHOUT CUSTOMER PERMISSION. How dare they! I won't be there. As for Dr.Benmergui's emphasis on big money procedures, every customer can't be a lottery win. In the 1950's a famous bank robber was asked "Why do you rob banks?", and the robber said,"Because that's where the money is". Increasigly, for dentists, "Cosmetic Dentistry" is where the money is. There are no more general dentists; somebody that you could go to to repair one broken tooth. These cosmetic dentists will find the smallest excuse to do $30,000 to $40,000 of uneccessary additional stuff.

Due to many unimportant circumstances, I was in need of like 10+ fillings, & rather quickly too, bc…read moremy insurance plan ended in a month... I explained this to the doctor & staff & they kindly accommodated my strange request. At the time the doctor also informed me that I would need a special root-canal in one tooth, which he did not provide. All of the normal crowns were taken care of well. I've had better, but only when getting one crown at a time. I find it difficult to complain that the man left a snag or two after spending three straight hours working on one mouth. Obviously, when prompted by questioning in subsequent visits he remedied my concerns like a consummate professional. During the one appointment in the midst of that whole situation, the doctor mistakenly shaved down the tooth in which I needed the special root-canal, having forgotten in the weeks since he told me that I would need to seek other dental help for that tooth. I did not forget, I was just busy trying not to panic bc getting dental work is scary. I still should have told him, & so I consider this mistake to be mostly my own. Overall, I enjoyed my time there, frantic though it may have been.
