Then this week the sense became a lump I could definitely feel. I figured that because it was in my mouth that a dentist would be a good place to start, so I called Dr Life's office. They agreed that it was unusual and opened their schedule so I could be examined that day. It turned out to be a rapidly growing fibrous growth on the mid-dorsal surface of my tongue. I immediately received a referral to Berkshire Facial Surgery. Getting such a rapid response to my concerns for such an unusual medical condition was fabulous.

While needing major dental work is not a good position to be in, this team makes the experience as pleasant as possible. I can only say this dental experience was the best ever in my 80 years.

If 60 Minutes or The Hartford Courant were to do a story on Cosmetic Dentist Scams, DR NGHEIM…read morewould steal the show. His lies..endless. Within 3 months I realized I was in serious trouble with DR.NGHIEM, but felt helpless. He had filed all of my natural teeth for the crowns, I knew finding another dentist at this stage would be a challenge. I was referred to this office via a doctor from Western Mass to see Dr. Lawrence Christian. I called the office to let them know I needed full mouth reconstruction, they recommended Dr. Ngheim. I checked the website to confirm that the implants and bone grafting I needed were a service they offered. I intended to wear braces on my bottom teeth throughout this process if possible. Dr. Ngheim assured me he could do the implants and grafting and agreed with my need to have these things done. He informed me that I was unable to wear braces, my roots were BLUNTED. None of the other cosmetic dentists I had met identified a problem with my roots. However, Dr. Ngheim had a solution. Crown my teeth and this would be equally as effective and successful as braces. I agreed to it. Within 3 months I knew my bottom teeth were a disaster which was creating a new set of problems. My general dentist informed me there was nothing wrong with my roots and braces would have been an option. I then saw five dentists from different specialties. All made the same determination; "my roots are healthy." They all disagreed with DR. NGHEIM'S MONEY MAKING DIAGNOSIS. I've gathered 20 yrs of dental xrays which reveal no changes in my roots. I shared this info with Dr. NGHEIM, his response; "FIRE ME",(my husband witnessed this and I recorded it). Dr. Ngheim failed from the start to go over my Treatment Plan. I asked him repeatedly to review the plan. After four months I requested a meeting and brought my husband as a witness. I asked Dr. Ngheim to review my Treatment Plan with us, In a very flippant manner he replied, "I DON'T KNOW HOW". I asked him why he didn't start the bone grafting at the beginning of the process since it takes months to heal. He responded letting me know he had no intentions of having or doing bone grafting My temporary Crowns were slamming against each other and I was in pain. He said "live with it". At one point I was in pain. My arches were so narrow I had difficulty with pronunciation. He said "you'll get used to using your tongue differently". On another occasion l let him know my smile was crooked, Dr. Ngheim said "retrain your jaw". Early on when I asked him about the bone grafting. I was shocked when he gave me the name of an Oral Surgeon to call. I assumed Dr. Neighm was hands on throughout this process. Why would I assume otherwise? I asked who was paying the Oral Surgeon, he said "YOU". He charged me 58K for CROWNS, what I didn't know was that the Treatment Plan did not include any of the services I came to him to have done. I was unaware of this because he refused to go over the treatment plan or the bill, I now realize it was intentional not to review these with me. Would I have signed that contract if the three problem areas that I needed worked on were not included? My purpose for seeing a dentist was not for pretty teeth and I indicated that at the onset. My 58K bill was now 80K+. Halfway through the plan Dr. Ngheim let me know that ANNUALLY HE HAS ABOUT 5% OF HIS PATIENTS , 15 LAST YEAR, THAT HE HAD TO DISMISS. HE DID NOT KNOW HOW TO COMPLETE THEIR TREATMENT AND SUGGESTED THEY SEE A SPECIALIST (I thought he was a specialist?) AND NOW I'M ONE OF HIS VICTIMS. Fifteen patients that probably paid in full and were dismissed in the middle of their plan, and like me, don't know where or who to go to. I asked if it is legal to dismiss me when he hasn't completed the work and filed all my natural teeth down without crowning them. He let me know "IT WAS HIS CHOICE AND LEGAL". I requested a dismissal letter and full reimbursement a month ago. Have had no response.
