Save yourself the trouble of scheduling with Distinctive Dental Solutions and take your business…read moreelsewhere. I scheduled a dental cleaning with DDS in January. As is standard in my experience because of how booked cleanings are, they scheduled me a few months out, in May. But I got a call today, one week before my appointment, where they asked to reschedule due to a scheduling conflict. Ordinarily, this would only be a minor inconvenience, but as I'm moving out of town this weekend and would be traveling back solely for my appointment next week, I was unable to be flexible. I explained this to the employee on the phone, and she was unable to accommodate, saying they wouldn't be able to schedule me for a couple more weeks, if not months. I understand that things happen, but this is extremely inconveniencing and honestly unprofessional. What's the point of scheduling an appointment months out, only for them to have to cancel last minute? I told them I would be making an appointment in the city I'm moving to instead.

Every Main Street of long ago had signage advertising the offices of a "painless dentist." Reports…read moreare that wasn't true, even after a shot or two of 100 proof red eye. Over the years my wife and I have had a variety of dental work done at Parkcrest Dental Group, mostly with Dr. Jason Hall. We honestly have experienced no pain. The fixes moreover have lasted. Dr. Hall is straightforward about the work that needs to be done and accomplishes it with skill and finesse. Parkcrest is a smooth operation with competent technicians, cordial receptionists, and superb dentists. That this has been a successful dental practice for 50 years is no surprise. Today I was in for a couple of fillings and a cap. While I don't look forward to having my teeth worked on, this has been the best dental experience I've ever had.

She went out of her way to get me a cleaning that same day which was so kind since we live almost 2 hours away.

Dentist Dryer was attentive and thorough in explaining my dental treatment and was so nice too. Received one of the best cleanings and the most friendly service from everyone at Buzbee Dental. Currently recommending them to everyone I know. Thank you!!

This is the BEST dentist I have ever encountered in my 68 years on this planet. He didn't just take…read morethe word of my prior dentist that the tooth needed to be removed (or root-canaled) but started a complete examination of his own with tools I hadn't heard of, like shining a light THROUGH the tooth to look for cracks, and using electrical stimulation to determine whether the nerves were still working/alive. I could release grip on a tool bar to break the circuit as soon as I felt pain. He determined that the tooth was alive and healthy, with only a "remineralization" via fluoride needed to stop the sensitivity that was felt when using a Waterpik. The main pain was caused by something else: tight jar muscles, not the tooth, and addressed in a separate way. There was no causative relationship better the two. He prevented a good tooth from being pulled. Spectacular. Additionally, the usual comments I could add are that he was so thorough, so careful, kind, unhurried, understanding, and best of all, he saved that tooth. His assistant was also very competent and careful. The office is open five days a week, not three like my prior dentist, thus I was able to get in early the next day after I called. I had missed a trip to Virginia a couple of weeks prior because I couldn't get in on a Friday with my prior dentist to see if a tooth ache was serious enough to cancel the trip or not. The office was closed since it was apparently open only three days a week, with no "tag-team" coordination with another office for emergency, or or other means of getting a quick-answer due to special circumstances like leaving on a trip in a couple of days. The only thing I saw on that painful Friday was an option to email. I never heard back, but rather had to cancel the trip and call the next Monday morning. Having more than one dentist in an office or a tag-team arrangement with another dentist for emergencies are important options to consider that I had not considered prior to this experience.

They also really help us out with the insurance part of our visits. They are magnificent and my family appreciates everything you do for us.

All I had done was x-rays and check up. Dr. Carla Duff did not even do an oral exam but just looked at x-rays. Instead of her admitting she could possibly made a mistake, that she got involve in discussion of my x-rays and forgot to check and went to her next appointment, she said, I would never skip that and acted very unprofessional. A person knows when someone pulls out your tongue to look under it for cancer or lifts your lips back to check gums. She did neither but denied it and instead of offering to check it, she got all bent out of shape and offended.

Their facility has the latest technologies (digital x-rays, cleaning equipment, crowns made on-site), all their doctors are extremely knowledgeable about the latest dental technologies, and the entire staff always shows how much they care with every interaction.

When I initially moved to the area, I needed to get either a bridge or implant for a couple back molars that had been extracted a year earlier. Dr. Olson went over some different options, gave me the pros/cons of each, and provided a very cost-effective option for me with no pressure to go with one option over the others. Since then, one of my kids needed to get an (orthodontic) expander, and another now has braces. They both love going to the dentist/orthodontist since it's a great experience for kids too: They have some fun activities for the kids while they're waiting for their appointment.

As you can see from the attached screenshot of my voicemail transcription that Miranda clearly stated "We unfortunately don't do anything with Bridges. We don't know how".
