    Sarah cleaning

    Great experience, returning for their 6 month checkup and both daughters came in with wiggly teeth. Quick and friendly assistance for my 6yr & 9yr daughters.

    We has a successful tooth removal experience today and we found the elf! Thanks to the friendly and caring staff for an easy visit.

    Great care, excellent staff who use developmentally appropriate approaches to set children at ease for tricky procedures.

    He got his balloon with his name after the exam!!

    Staff was pleasant and helpful. I think her name was Emily was going above and beyond to make sure my son felt safe and happy. Everything about this business is so kid friendly (ambiance, setting items, balloons at the end etc.) Very necessary to help kids feel great during their experience. Initially had my 3 year old going to my own adult dentist and going to this pediatric is NIGHT and DAY in terms of results, comfort for my son, and interactions!! Very thankful. My aunt also brings her kids (13, 15 y.o) here and has been since they were kids. Been loving going here and will not change! Looking forward to our next visit.

    An hour after the extractions and the sites were healing nicely

We were called back and were told only one parent can go back (I can understand this due to room bring small) however our child has a disability and we both like to be present for support. The dental assistant that brought us back was very unwelcoming right away she proceeded to want my child to have X-rays, I told her due to her condition that would not be possible today as well as not be able to lean back to brush her teeth, she can do it sitting down instead which my child allowed. I had to ask assistant if she read medical form where I shared her condition and why she needed things done a bit different. Not once did I feel she genuinely cared to make my child feel comfortable instead when she walked out to get dentist she rolled her eyes, my husband saw as he was sitting right outside and could see us. Her attitude toward a special needs child has left me not wanting to return. She needs training on how to be kind and welcoming to ALL children especially special needs. I honestly felt like crying when I got home. The Dentist was the absolute opposite and nice 5 stars to him. We will not return to this office.

    I felt conflicted in writing a review. I was a patient from approximately 2017 to about 2021…read more When I first started my dentist was Dr. Christiansen. He was kind and patient. The dental hygienist were also great. The dentist office had newer equipment and I sincerely enjoyed going to the dental office. However, as time passed I went in and a different dentist would attend me without explanation. Going to the dentist is already an unpleasant thing, and having a doctor I was unfamiliar with attend me without notice was something I didn't like. He seemed to get frustrated on one occasion when a crown would not sit properly in my mouth. They had to do another 3 d scan and remake it. I don't remember his name anymore, but I do remember feeling a bit uneasy in his care. At first I would get reminders and as time went on I began to have issues with my appointment not being scheduled properly. I would have to call to set up appointments because the staff failed to make them. The last straw for me was when I went in because of grinding my teeth and I was just rushed over to go see a specialist across the hall. I felt i was expected to understand the dental process, when I didn't, and I felt like staff was upset that I didn't want to make a decision when I didn't understand the process. I ended up changing dentist after that experience. The new dentist I went to explained it to me in a way I could understand. Now I wear a night retainer to alleviate some of the pressure on my teeth.

Dont roll your eyes because I did not have my xrays from my previous doctor, then loudly talk about it while im sitting there in the office in front of you. Also if you had an online option for me to complete paperwork , why give me a giant pile of forms to hand fill out if I could have done the electronically while I was there , then make it seem like you're doing me a favor by still agreeing to see me 30 minutes after my appointment time. I was placed as a last minute appointment, and did not realize I missed a call to me for patient documents and xrays before the appointment , also my husband set up the appointment for me and spoke with the office first ,I thought they had already collected my insurance info and all the pertinant info needed, so by the time i showed up 15 min early , i was under the impression this was taken care of. Doctor Prouse did not engage with me regarding my treatment , he talked over me to his hygienist, who was overall "nice", but really what I experienced was poor bedside manner, I asked for an estimated copay from front desk (Gaby), she said someone else would call me back with this info and they never did, I was told I needed a deep cleaning which is basically more money in their pocket, I have been regularly seen by my previous dentist and have never been recommended anything outside of a regular cleaning. I asked to opt for just a regular cleaning moving forward but the front desk refused to schedule me for it unless it was the deep cleaning, my husband and I both pay for good dental insurance , so I am wary of places that are only concerned about making money off of people. My mom is also a new patient and I am concerned for her well being and this office taking advantage of her. I much rather pay out of pocket to stay with my previous denist, as he is now out of my insurance network. I regret stepping foot in to this unprofessional establishment. On top of that, they wanted to charge me for a no show to an appointment they never confirmed with me. Just feels like a scummy dental office. I have also worked for 2 very great dentists , who have both now since retired, and bedside manner and customer service and patient care is what it should be about. Not whatever this was, I would start with getting rid of the rude girl Gaby.

When arriving they stated I had no cavities, however a basic teeth cleaning would not do and that I would need a deep cleaning instead, which was NOT covered under my insurance and that I would need to pay 200$ out of pocket. Moving on too the consultation, they said due to the two bottom teeth being impacted they will need to do a bone graph to get a more accurate reading when they perform the extraction which will also NOT be covered under my insurance and it'll be 765$ a tooth. A week later I go to another dentist who were much more professional and not money hungry!! They easily performed a regular cleaning as well as fillings for 9 small cavities and removed all 3 wisdom tooth. MY INSURANCE COVERED EVERYTHING!! Crazy to believe after a 15min visit with smilecare they were already asking almost 2000$. I spent more time in the waiting room then I did with the staff, this place is a joke

I haven't enough compliments to give to not only Dr. Scharer, but also to the amazing ladies that run the behind-the-scenes here. They keep this office in tip-top shape (warm, welcoming and CLEAN!) and are so wonderful to interact with. I feel like I could be friends with them in real life, they are respectful and have a great sense of humor while keeping things dignified. Good to have a little laugh when you are feeling down about your bum-tooth. :) They are reason enough for me to stick around, so its a huge bonus that I also like the dentist! Again, very respectful and easy to talk to. I have a bit of a bumpy road ahead with a few teeth but I have confidence that Dr. Scharer will work with my treatment plan and prioritize my work by how important it is to the big picture, not how expensive or how much money it will make them in the short term. Its a nice feeling to have trust like that in your dentist. I am sending my husband and son after (as Leslie put it) I guinea-pigged, and I know they will feel right at home here too. We look forward to many years ahead of excellent service and dental work. Oh, did I mention I have left both appointments with a pretty flower in tow? SO cute, I love it. :) Thank you!!
