Pro: The staff is amazing and extremely helpful Con: Dr. Leonard is amazing just ask him well you can see all of his accomplishments in the waiting room but as far as seeing him you get the conveyor belt experience. I had to go back 3 times in pain before he gave me antibiotics then i was told if i had anymore pain i needed to go to a ENT. Good thing i did because something Dr. Leonard did caused me to get a sever sinus infection and i had to go in for a Sinus Surgery. So thanks to Dr. Lonard i didnt only have one surgery but two. I hated dentist's before and this def didnt help. If you want a doctor that actually treats you go somewhere else.

This hygienist is not thorough with teeth cleaning, my teeth still felt unclean after seeing her. Also her communication skills make procedures cumbersome, for example she is not good at conducting X-rays, she is silent and expects you to know she's about to toss the heavy X-ray blanket on you, and how to move your head or hold your mouth when inserting the X-ray into your mouth, then she blames her bad X-rays on the patient. Unfortunately Victoria is the only hygienist at Silver Spring Dental Arts, they do not have any other options.

There was another negative review by someone else about Dr. Adams and his use of the DNA appliance, and that also appears to have been removed. I hope people don't rely solely on Google reviews. According to another reviewer, her negative review was removed there and followed immediately by a stellar review. Here, again, is my review. I was oversold on the DNA appliance by Dr. Gary Adams. It cost $10K, and made no visible change -- which is what I came to him for. My back teeth are somewhat better aligned, but I never would have paid for that since I had no functional issues. He never told me that this appliance is used exclusively for people with sleep apnea and TMJ, neither of which I have. (His website at the time I sought treatment didn't indicate this either; it focused on the appliance's ability to grow bone.) I used the appliance exactly as prescribed -- I was trying to correct a slight underbite -- and it did absolutely nothing. My smile and bite look exactly like they did before. I hope this review keeps other people from making the same mistake I did.

Not everyone wants their teeth back, but I'm DEFINITELY the kind of person who does, so that was meaningful. Also, the office staff are very helpful and things run efficiently.

I've never gone under before but it truly felt like time travel. The ladies who prepped me were gentle and I fell right asleep and then it was done! I'm older so I was really scared about the recovery but they say if your surgeon is good you'll feel fine and twos days out I feel great! Barely any swelling and hardly any pain!

I was referred to Dr. T by my local dentist for extraction of my two wisdom teeth. I called the…read moreoffice the day after seeing my dentist to schedule a consultation. My records had already been faxed over and Dr. T reviewed my records ahead of my visit. Because my xrays were about 10 months old, they performed a new xray during my consultation. What stands out about this office is how thorough they all are - Dr. T talked me through the entire process and reviewed the risks involved with the extractions. His medical assistant/tech also talked me through the entire process again to ensure I had a clear understanding. I provided my insurance information ahead of the consultation (over the phone while scheduling and again within the new patient forms that I completed online). They verified my insurance and calculated the out of pocket costs for me which I paid during the visit. They were upfront and very transparent about the costs during the visit, and informed me that I should expect to receive a small bill post-visit. I paid a pre-surgical deposit that went towards the balance for the procedure. I was offered an appointment for the extractions as early as the following week, however I opted to schedule a month and a half later due to prior commitments. Ahead of my extractions, they sent my prescriptions to the pharmacy so I was able to pick them up before the procedure. I also received a couple of reminders for the visit. The extractions and healing went well. The care instructions provided were clear and easy to follow. The staff (front desk and clinical) are all very kind and welcoming, and I appreciated how patient they were as I was anxious about the procedure. The office is clean, modern looking and easy to find. Overall, I had a great experience at this practice!

After the evaluation she then proceeded to call multiple oral surgeons in order to see if she can get me an appointment. although she was unsuccessful I just really appreciated the time that she took to do that for me. This is a dentist with heart, I recommend her highly! Pleasant staff and nice office. It's great to sit in the chat and have a view of the outdoors.

THEY ARE NOT GOING TO ACCEPT YOUR SCAN FROM OTHER CLINICS. THEY SAY THEY DO, BUT THEY WON'T. Even…read moreif it means exposing you to another X-ray within a short period. My experience with this clinic made me seriously question the integrity of some medical providers. I grew up in a family full of medical providers, so I've always had a lot of respect for them. But being told they "can't read" my scan files and that I needed to pay $450 for another CBCT scan was shocking. I had already taken the scan at another oral surgery clinic that turned out to be out-of-network. That's why I looked for an in-network doctor and ended up here. Before my first appointment, they asked me to bring the scan files. I even asked if there was a specific format they needed because I work with image files and know compatibility can matter. They brushed it off and told me to just bring them. I arrived with the USB and waited almost an hour, only to be told they couldn't read files from USB and needed them on a CD. Sorry, but are we in 2005? They "kindly" offered to take a new scan for $250. I had taken the scan only a week earlier, so I refused. I had to reschedule and even bought a CD burner on Amazon because the original clinic didn't have one. Before my second appointment, I called again to ask about file formats and told them the other clinic had also emailed the files. I even asked if they could call the other clinic since both clinics use the same medical imaging software, which I found very odd. THEY NEVER CALLED THE OTHER CLINIC AND APPARENTLY NEVER CHECKED THE EMAIL. They just kept saying it should work if it's on a CD. So I returned with the CD. After all that effort, they STILL said they couldn't read the files. And now the price for a new scan was suddenly $450. When I got home, I downloaded a free medical imaging viewer and opened the files immediately with no issue. Yes, I -- someone with no experience opening this type of medical imaging format -- was able to open them. I ended up booking another oral surgeon down the street who simply allowed me to upload my existing scans. I still can't understand why this clinic handled things this way. It felt like they cared more about charging for another scan than actually helping patients. Also, thanks for delaying my treatment for weeks and for trying to make me take another X-ray only a few weeks after the first one.

She then went under for the surgery and was shaken awake and told she needed to leave immediately after waking up. She then asked to speak to the surgeon to see how it went and was told she was "too busy" to speak to her. Over the next couple days my wife had severe bruising on her neck and jaw and extreme pain. We have no idea what happened during the surgery to illicit this kind of bruising. She also developed bruising on her wrist, again no doctor would explain what happened during the procedure so no idea what happened there. Over all was a terrible experience and honestly scary.

The office is clean, updated, and comfortable, with a spacious waiting room. I was able to make an appointment for a cleaning (my first visit)only about a week and a half in advance, which was awesome. Dr. Borchers took me on time and did a very thorough, gentle job and explained what he was doing in more detail than I've ever heard before, which was really interesting and conveyed the depth of both his knowledge of and real interest in dentistry. He found 2 cavities (that's what I get for avoiding the dentist for so long) and showed me on the x-ray how he spotted them, what was causing them, and how he could tell which was more urgent. All that, and I was still out in just over an hour. Important to note, they only take cash or check, so come prepared, and they don't take insurance but will give you the paperwork that will allow you to report it on your own so you still get the deductions from your insurance company.
