I can't recommend Dr. Baek and his staff at Smart Family Dental Care enough! I have been going to…read morehim as a peridontist for over ten years and have had consultations, deep cleanings, and am about to start my fifth implant. Unfortunately, I'm no stranger to a dental chair and have been to my share of "bad" dentists, but Dr. Baek is gentle, kind and always takes the time to explain the procedure and communicate next steps (usually with a little bit of excitement so you can truly tell he loves what he does!). I never feel rushed and always leave feeling like I'm in good hands. I drive 40 minutes each way and well worth my time. I would never go anywhere else. He is reasonably priced and puts the patient first instead of trying to upsell you on procedures you don't need. My mother always says that you can tell a person's character by the way they treat their staff and Dr. Baek treats everyone with respect and in a professional manner. The staff is just as wonderful as Dr. Baek. I've had no billing or scheduling issues and they are always very helpful. Do yourself a favor and go see Dr. Baek. You will not regret it!

I have been to all kinds of dentist offices in Atlanta. Smart Family is the best from an overall…read morepatient perspective I have experienced. Dr. Baek is both a dentist and a periodontist, and the level of knowledge he has feels put to my benefit. I have had fillings, extractions, bone grafts, implants and deep cleanings performed by SF, and while no dental work is what I would call "fun," it actually hasn't been bad. I don't know what his specific techniques are, but he makes the experience as pain-free as you can have. With other dentists I insisted on headphones and nitrous oxide to distract me from what was sure to be a traumatic experience. That stuff simply isn't needed here. Dr. Baek strives to put patients at ease. Explains what is going on in clear terms and with genuine empathy, not judgement. I'd rank him tops amongst the dentists I've had, full stop. I don't feel like I've ever overpaid for any procedure, either. I've seen how other offices run their practices and it's clear where the priorities are here--it's with you. From 2 years ago: GREAT experience. I had a deep cleaning, and Dr. Baek was patient, understanding and he clearly is up on the latest pain-minimizing techniques! Recommend to any dental cowards out there!

July 2017 Update:…read more Today my daughter had three fillings, and I had my crown looked at by Dr. Ross Sholota, Dr. Chris Sholota's son. Dr. Ross just started, and I assume there will be people who are interested in getting someone else's first impression. He made a great first impression on my daughter and me, he seems like a great dentist, and I would recommend him. - - original review below - - I'm conflicted on Dr. Sholota's practice at the moment, but overall, I am a fan. Dr. Sholota is great, as are the hygienists. The front desk staff are very friendly. My concerns come down to dollars and cents. Both in my current job, which brought me to Atlanta, and my previous job, which had us in upstate New York, I had a great dental plan, and tried to find great dentists, regardless of whether or not they were in-network. When I first visited Dr. Sholota earlier this year, all of my family's cleanings were 100% covered by our insurance. The only unpleasant surprises were the cost of my children's fillings. My son's first fillings were two surface composite posterior fillings. My insurance covers up to 80% of the cost, up to $260. However, a two surface at Dr. Sholota's practice is $285.00. That $15 delta per filling may not sounds like a lot, but the $15 from $245 to $260 is only $3 out of pocket. The next $15 is $15 out of my pocket. Before my daughter had her fillings, I called and asked about the cost. They said they could do a pre-auth for future treatments, and if I wanted to reschedule her treatments I could, but that her fillings would be less than $285. Unfortunately, I did not realize that her filings would be subject to a different coverage limit. Those were all one surface composite anterior fillings, covered only up to $194, and Dr. Sholota charges $228.00. Each of those fillings were completely uncovered for the last $24. At this point my wife and I discussed looking at other dentists, but we did have positive experiences with Dr. Sholota, and cleanings were not costing us anything as our coverage did cover cleanings. My wife's next cleaning came with a bill of $47 that we had to pay. The justification was that despite brushing at least twice daily and flossing daily, she needed to undergo the "difficult cleaning" to ensure her teeth were properly cleaned. This lead to a $149 charge for the cleaning with $47 not covered (the separate $58 oral evaluation was fully covered). My cleaning, which was very shortly after this, was just a standard cleaning, but I was responsible for $13. The reason I was given via e-mail when asking about this was, "Metlife reviews/changes their fees once a year and Dr. Sholota does as well." As of this writing, those rates are: $90.00 child cleaning $115.00 adult cleaning $149.00 Difficult cleaning At this point, my family of four, between cleaning and filling charges that were above my coverage limits have cost more than $200 above what we would have paid had our cleanings been fully covered and our fillings split 80:20. Part of that is the "difficult cleaning", but here is the explanation I got around that, "A difficult cleaning is a more detailed cleaning in which the patient has excess plaque/calculus and bleeding. She may not need that type of cleaning every visit but we are unaware until she presents at her appointment." Do I have any complaints about Dr. Sholota's work, or the other people who work here? No. But lack of disclosure around rate increases is frustrating, and a lack of explanation around the different rates and coverage limits for different filling types is frustrating. I had a dentist I *loved* in upstate New York who's pricing was in line with my current coverage limits, and I suspect that if I were to look around, I could find a 5* dentist with pricing inline with the limits of my current coverage plan. The high prices are one thing, perhaps some people would consider service worth the price, but the repeated surprises on unexpected costs are leaving a bad taste in my mouth. I'm on the border between three and four stars, and have decided to leave four stars in hopes that unpleasant surprises are behind me.

I have had the pleasure of getting to know Dr. Sholota outside of his practice for a few years now…read more Since his office is so close to where I live and I have heard such good things about his practice, I figured I would make an appointment. Needless to say, I have found myself a new permanent dental office. I could not have been more pleased with the way his office is set up and the level of care I received. Very prompt service, and was pain free throughout the whole process. He stays very busy, so you often have to schedule months in advance, but it is beyond worth it. I will be recommending his practice to all my friends and family.

I got my braces, filling, and wisdom teeth extraction here. The team are indeed friendly and they…read moretry their best to accommodate people. My braces was completed faster than expected plan, and it looks as I expected. Filling was pretty standard, but one of my filling fell off after 3 years (it was at the edge and I guess I bit too hard). The wisdom teeth removal was excellent for me (for the two upper teeth). It was done too fast that I prepared myself for nothing. They also gives clear instruction and called to check everything is fine. I didnt even have to take ibuprofen at night because there is no pain (only takes one dose because I was afraid the pain would kick in). One plus thing is when they inject the anesthesia medicine, they did pretty well and I didnt feel pain, so that alone could be enough for me to go here. This place is always busy lol and you know if a place is busy it means they did good. I must admit that the price is slightly higher than the other online quote I found (but you know quote means nothing and I only have been going here so I really cant say lol), but you get what you pay for. If you have good insurance and want to have a good experience, I would recommend this place. Oh and about the price issue, I did research and I found out that it is yours responsibility to check and understand your insurance. It's quite a long read, but yeah you have to learn how insurance work.

On September 29, 2021, I went to my very first appointment at this dental office. When I checked in…read morewith the receptionist for my 1 p.m. appointment, she asked for my Driver's License (DL) even before she gave me any paperwork to fill out. When I asked for the reason, she initially told me it was needed to verify my appointment. Then she informed me that a copy of it was needed to have on file and to verify the information on the patient forms. Before I handed her my DL, I told her that she could not make a copy of it but that she may use it to verify my appointment and the information on the forms when I fill them out. She repeated that a copy was needed on file for future references. But, I emphatically told her that she could not make a copy. I stated that government agencies advise people to exercise caution when providing personal information and to not hand over DL or Social Security Card when it is not necessary due to rising cases of identity theft. But, she insisted that it was needed for insurance purposes. Again, I told her not to make a copy. Plus, when I made the appointment, I stated that I would be paying out of pocket instead of with insurance. Despite my concern for privacy and without having my consent, the receptionist surreptitiously put my license on the scanner while I looked away at my phone. However, I caught her taking it out of the scanner just as I looked up. When I asked her if she had just made a copy, she answered--"No, I scanned it"--with a smirk. My instinct told me that this establishment could not be trusted. Despite my intense toothache, I immediately told her that I was cancelling my appointment. Better safe than sorry. She then proceeded to slide my license under the patient forms on a clipboard instead of handing it back to me and placed the clipboard behind the scanner as if I would not notice. When she realized that I was on to her game, she reached in and took out the license. Her actions and body language spoke clearly to me that this establishment could not be trusted. I asked to speak with the office manager who turns out was present the whole time I was interacting with the receptionist. I explained that my license was scanned without my consent and that I would like to have it deleted from the computer. To which, the receptionist stated that I had given her the consent--what a liar!!! What kind of place is this? Without addressing my concern, the office manager told me that a copy of the driver's license was needed for insurance purposes. However, I was not nor will ever be their client, therefore, my license was not needed. But, my concern fell on deaf ears. What are they going to do with my license? Are they going to use it for insurance fraud? Receptionist, along with the manager, is the face of this establishment. With such people, who clearly lack integrity, customer care, and professionalism, one can't but question if Duluth Dental and Dentures is a trustworthy place. If they can't show decency and respect when I first walk in to their office, how can I trust this dental office with the care of my teeth, health, and personal information? Based on the dishonest behavior of the receptionist and the lack of professionalism of the office manager, something in this establishment is very much amiss. If you are looking for a new dentist, I would think twice before visiting Duluth Dental and Dentures. Better safe than Sorry!!!

Who knows how many COVID infected patients had been in and out of that medical office knowing that they didn't care one bit about, if their patients were ifected or not, knowing they didn't care about how I felt!! ! absolutely could not believe it !They were Blatantly intentionally spreading COVID carelessly, not even thinking about their patients only worried about collecting their money!! And contributing to reinfecting society with not a care at all is JUST UNBELIEVABLY DISGUSTING!!!
