Warning to Prospective Patients: Based on my personal…read moreexperience, I have serious concerns about the quality of care, follow-up, and pricing transparency at Arvada Family and Cosmetic Dentistry and with Dr. David Zeitlin. I underwent a full-mouth restoration, including upper and lower dentures and multiple extractions, at a cost of approximately $20,000. At the time, I believed I was beginning a process that would be supported through completion, with the goal of restoring my smile and quality of life. Nearly three years later, I am deeply disappointed to say that consistent follow-up and clear guidance toward completion have not occurred. This has been not only frustrating, but disheartening--especially given the importance of this type of treatment. I also experienced a significant difference between the initial estimate and the final amount requested, which was not clearly explained in advance. When I raised my concerns with the office, I did not feel that they were handled with the level of care, understanding, or accountability I had hoped for as a patient. At 70 years old, this has been a difficult experience, and I would not want others--especially those facing major dental procedures--to go through something similar. I strongly encourage anyone considering treatment here to ask detailed questions, get everything in writing, and fully understand the long-term plan before proceeding. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend this practice.

During that time, I received wonderful dental care in a warm & friendly environment, that was covered by my dental insurance allotment. But now, things have drastically changed!

I had a few questions which were answered promptly. The dental assistant remembered me from last time. She did a great job cleaning my teeth. She even had a trick to help my gag reflex when taking my x-rays. Dr. Medaugh came in and checked everything over. He answered some questions as well and I was on my way. The office is fragrance free which, as an asthmatic, I appreciate.

I went to Able Dentistry twice for swollen gum/toothache. They prescribed me a mouthwash and after…read more6 days the pain had only gotten worse and bonding I had on my front teeth was gone and I wondered if it was due to the mouthwash. I returned six days later addressing my concerns: pain I can't sleep through and the bonding that was gone. The hygienist confirmed that it wasn't the mouthwash that would strip the bonding and that they do bonding there. She also said they might need to perform x-rays that was not covered by insurance so they can see deeper into what the problem was but the doctor would talk about it with me. Dr. Medaugh looked at the problem area but still couldn't tell what would be causing it. He then started sneezing and told me I was wearing something he was allergic to - also that the bonding would be hard to do, no one notices it except me and that wasn't the reason I was there anyway. I didn't expect to do it that day, so he didn't need to be so dismissive. After he left the hygienist told me he is highly sensitive to scent and even though I didn't have perfume on that it must have been a hair product I had on - a small amount of dry shampoo from 3 hours earlier? She then opened the window and I sat there for long periods of time freezing. The doctor came back in and ultimately told the hygienist to do x-rays (he called it something different from what she told me about so I didn't think it was the non covered x-rays.) The x-rays were done, 5 minutes later the hygienist told me he still doesn't know what the problem was and I'm being referred elsewhere. As if this visit couldn't get any worse, I went to the front desk where 3 girls were sitting there and didn't even look up or acknowledge me - one of them was too busy texting on her cell phone. After a long silence one of them pushes the credit card machine to me and says "$205". I wished I would have been informed I was receiving the non covered x-rays but I paid without complaint. I continued to stand there to be directed on what action to do next... do I sign something ... am I done or what....? Several moments of silence later she told me I didn't need to sign anything, her way to signify I could leave - no thank you or have a nice day or any social politeness. Worst experience I've ever had at any doctor's office. Left feeling upset, still in pain and a referral to go elsewhere. The end result could have been the same but some niceties would go a long way!! The hygienists were nice, that's it.

He administered my shot, drilled out the previous filling and left his assistant to do all the work. He didn't even bother to come in and examine the work after she was done. Why am I paying for a dentist when an assistant is doing all the work? Furthermore, I have other teeth that will need to be worked on and he presumed he could start in on them without my permission. I had gone in for 2 teeth and he presumed he should replace the amalgam on a third. I agreed to it after he had shot up my mouth so much. Finally, I got cold during this 2 hour session and asked for a blanket. There were 2 available. One was wrapped in plastic the other tossed on a tray. He told the assistant to give me the one thrown on the tray. I had to ask if it was clean since it had just been laying open. He displayed the worst bed side manner. When I complained he told me I should go see the dentist down the hall because he would probably do fillings and actually told his receptionist to make me an appointment. It was a horrible experience!

Which clearly after checking I was able to save hundreds of dollars by going to another dentist. I was a newer patient at this office, this was my second time doing buisness with Brighton smiles. My previous dentist had moved out of state and that's why I initially came to this office as I seen great reviews. I came to get my tooth checked out as I seen it was chipped. I was told It would require a crown. After the scheduling for the crown, and paperwork came back it was going to cost a pretty significant amount of money even after insurance. So like anyone that's on a budget I decided to get a second opinion at the old dentist office I was at previously, and check out what the prices would be for the same job from the new dentist that took over. I was shocked to see the price difference between companies. My old dentist office was able to get me a stronger zirconia crown that has a 10 year warranty on the tooth for several hundred dollars cheaper then Brighton smiles for a typical crown. I gave Brighton smiles a call and asked if they could match the price and see if they warranty the tooth like my old office. I was informed that the prices are fixed and they don't provide any warranty on the tooth. I also asked about the crown itself to make sure we were comparing apples to apples on product of the crown. Their zirconia crown was more money then then the crown they originally quoted me for. In comparing the prices of a zirconia crown it would be several hundred dollars cheaper after insurance to go to my old dentist office. As well as a warranty for 10 years. I cancelled my apt with Susie at Brighton smiles as I was going the route to save money and get more bang for the buck going to my old dentist office. After the cancellation I got a call back from Brighton smiles telling me that Dr Spencer don't think it's a good choice that I come back, that I should just go do all my future dental work elsewhere!! I was very shocked at this as I have never met another professional company not carry integrity while competing in the market they are in with this attitude and pride. I understand a quality dentist costs money. However when other dentists can do the same job and be competitive in the market, I expected so much more from Brighton smiles then to be this pety. I decided not to write a review about this last week as I figured maybe Dr Spencer just had a bad day, however I check my mail today and to my suprise, Brighton smiles even made it official by sending me a written notice that they won't be doing any work for me in the future. I won't say anything bad about the work that gets done at this office as the ladies that worked on my teeth were kind and did quality work. However when a business fails at being professional to the customer and buckles the very first sign of anyone double checking the market on the cost of work, its very sad to see such a high ranked reviewed dentist act like this is high school. I have a hard time believing I am the first person that Dr Spencer has sent mail to to discontinue services based on "trusting her work". I am sorry but trust is earned!! Since Brighton smiles made it official to discontinue my service for going to get a second opinion, even giving them the chance to match the other dentistry apples to apples, here is to making it official on the professional character of Brighton smiles, 1 star.
