This has been my family's regular dental office for quite a few years. Initially I was very…read moreimpressed with the facility and we had no issues. It has only been within this year that we have run into scheduling problems. The office has cancelled appointments twice on me because "the hygienist wasn't going to be available that day" and then the next available appointment isn't for another 4-6 weeks. If we have needed a follow up appointment after a regular scheduled visit it can take that same 4-6 weeks to get another appointment. They do run pretty much on time and are efficient when you do arrive for an appointment. Plus they were able to get my husband in within 24 hours when he urgently needed to see a dentist which I did appreciate and gave them an extra star for that.

WARNING TO POTENTIAL PATIENTS & NORTHROP GRUMMAN EMPLOYEES…read more Be VERY wary of the amount of 5-star reviews you see on Google. Many of them are lacking in any details or descriptions of the procedures done and don't tell you anything much like Amazon reviews. It's almost like they're buying reviews. Jai Shin seems to hope you're naive enough to not question what they're doing in your mouth, especially if you've had bad oral history. I had been going to this place for around 4 years after I moved to Maryland, and at first it seemed fine with the cleanings and being told I had some cavities to fill. But then he mentioned I needed a root canal, which was the beginning of the end. This root canal hell spanned 2-3 years before I found peace and left for a better dentist: 1. The root canal procedure itself was very odd. I'm no stranger to root canals and I know for a fact Jai Shin didn't use a tooth dam to prevent my saliva and other contaminants from entering the exposed tooth or a magnifying glass apparatus to even see what he's doing in the back of my mouth. He was very casual and not completely focused on doing the root canal, and initial x-rays showed the biofilling PIERCED THROUGH MY GUM TISSUES before fixing it. My gut was telling me something was wrong, but I had excellent dentists in my life prior to this so I gave the benefit of the doubt. 2. The installed crown afterwards POPPED OFF during normal eating sessions only a couple of months after installation. My two 8 year old crowns have NEVER had this issue and they're still going strong to this day. It was poor cement adhesion explained away with poor excuses. 3. Almost a year later after the root canal procedure, it failed as I had a reinfection there again. Jai Shin told me it was rare/uncommon for this to happen, and yet there we were not even a year in, with bleeding and throbbing gums. They had then referred me to a periodontist that only had a slot to see me in a month, so I went with someone else that could see my issue sooner and the reports were not good. Then I got it checked by Sterling Endodontics and they confirmed it needed to be retreated, which they did PROPERLY the next day. 4. It was pointed out by the Perio that the prior crown that popped off was not giving full coverage over the tooth, leaving a gap for food to enter. The new crown creation by Jai Shin was a hassle and took a while to get it right, but at least now it seems like he actually put effort since he could probably sense I could see through his facade and was done with him. It doesn't end there though. A cavity that was found in my other molar was never mentioned by Jai Shin and caught by my new dentist who has since properly fixed it. Thankfully one of Jai's dental assistants made me aware of the potential of that cavity back then so I kept note of that. It would have become another root canal, and I suspect Jai was withholding this on purpose to ruin more teeth/get more money out of me. I am also very suspect of whether I really needed a root canal from Jai knowing what I know now. Another review here mentions he was lying to them about her child's teeth having cavities that needed to be done. Unfortunately for him, she worked with dentists and knew what to look for. And so, so, SO much more that can't fit in detail in this review. Billing issues that take months to resolve, rough administration of numbing shots, questionable crown applications, charging for Xrays and not doing enough Xrays at the same time vs endo and new dentist, his wife coming in with incorrect statements/assumption on my mouth instead of himself, etc... Jai Shin also seems to care a lot about his reviews instead of his service since early on he would spam people texts to leave reviews. I also noticed another reviewer mentioning that Jai Shin spoke to them at their next appointment regarding a review they left. In which case, hello. Do better, seriously. Don't be a Jensen Huang. If you've read through all of this, thank you for your time. I'm seriously trying to warn you of this dentist because I don't want people to suffer as much as I did.

Without her, it's three stars at best. I doubt we will return here though. My last experience with the remaining dentist was unfavorable.

Well Dr. Goitom makes sure her office is the complete opposite of LSOH! I went it with a slight issue and Helen, the hygienist, was great at keeping me calm and explaining everything as went through. Dr. Goitom made sure I felt no pain throughout the process and felt completely comfortable with everything. I am honestly looking forward to going back to them which NEVER happens with me. The office decor is really cute, high tech and they have inspirational quotes in each room which are nice to read while trying to keep yourself busy. You never see anyone in the waiting room because they schedule their appointments appropriately and take their patients as soon as they arrive.

Choosing to patronize, this business was one of the best decisions I've made in a very long time. The staff at Dental Designs, from the receptionist, to the hygienist, to the dentist are amazing. As someone who has anxiety about the dentist, they all made me feel very comfortable. They took the time to understand my wants, but also made sure to address my needs is in the process. I am really looking forward to continuing my dental journey. I mean, who actually looks forward to going to the dentist? If you're looking to have some cosmetic work done, or just looking for a change in dentist, I would definitely suggest Dental Designs!

I am big on always saying thank you to those around you! I noticed he always thanks his staff and is professional with them but you can tell he is kind. The young lady who assisted me with my Invisalign today was very knowledgeable, I was nervous about getting them. A little more so when I realized I had to wear them on the bottom and the top to fix the lowers. She put all that to rest for me. Walked me through maintaining them, and answered my 56 questions. I also noticed how thorough Dr. Bonebreak was with his notes on my teeth. Dr. Bonebreak wrote so much to ensure he was giving the best possible service. This makes me happy since I am spending a little over 6k to essentially make my teeth perfect. I wish this was place I had taken my daughter to, but shoulda , coulda, woulda :( I can't say enough great things about this place ! Professionalism goes such a long way.

He certainly had damaged the left side of my gum nerve after the filling service he provided. I originally selected him as a provider because of the location and was able to schedule appointment in short notice for teeth cleaning. I only saw 1 older lady working at the front desk during my visits and she wasn't always there the few times I went back/called; which now makes me wonder if he has some cash-flow issue. Anyways, he wasn't friendly when I first went for the teeth cleaning and he recommended that I get filling for 2 cavities I had. My previous dentist had said the same thing before so I decided to go head and get the service. That was the worst mistake --he was extremely rough and could feel him yanking the filling material although he had given me the numbing shot. It was clear that he was getting frustrated and my gum was bleeding. After the procedure I wan unable to chew on the left side of my mouth for over 3 weeks, has constant sharp pain and felt uneven ( like I had a piece of meat between my teeth). At this point I was afraid the area is infected so I rescheduled another appointment for follow up. He quickly checked and said there was no infection. It took over 8 months for the constant sharp pain to go away -- I consulted other dentist and explained to me it was a nerve damage and was able to re-do the filling. Unfortunately I'm still afraid to chew meat (unless it's extremely soft) on the left side because it just doesn't feel right. Please stay away from him! He looked like he hates his job and was just counting his retirement days...not even sure why he's still practicing.
