    Photo of my new smile after Invisalign, whitening and bridge to fix missing tooth. Excellent job!

    Contemporary Dentistry is the best dentist I have ever been to. They are friendly, accommodating and just all around a pleasure to visit. I have had many bad experiences in the past. But because of Contemporary Dentistry I have overcome my fear of going to the dentist. My smile looks amazing and I am so grateful!

    I am so glad I came to this dentist office for a teeth cleaning! Getting your teeth cleaned every six or so months is very important and I was definitely needing one! I called in to make an appointment and the girl on the phone was very friendly. It was fast, simple, and easy to book the appointment. I was scheduled for the following week and I was told on what I needed to bring. The office itself is located in a much bigger plaza with other surrounding business. I did have a hard time finding the office since I did not see a business sign. I finally found the office and didn't realize that I had been driving passed it the whole time. (The office is located on the side of the plaza closer to Houston street behind another business.) We walked in and the receptionist greeted us very friendly and she then handed me a couple forms to fill out. I didn't wait too long after turning in my forms to get called into back, and she even showed me around the office as well. My dental hygienist was the BEST. She WAS SO NICE. She did everything from my X-rays, to my periodontal exam, to even my cleaning. She made me feel comfortable and answered any questions that I had. I did get to see Dr. Kathy once my cleaning was all done and she was also very friendly! Everyone that I was able to interact with on my dental visit was beyond friendly! These ladies seem to have a passion for what their doing and it shows! I am so glad I picked this dentist office and I'm actually looking forward for my next visit in 6 months!

    I visited S & L Dental for the first time and could not leave without writing a review! My…read moreexperience was amazing from the second I walked in to the second I left. I was greeted immediately with smiles from the kind front desk staff and felt comfortable in the relaxing environment of the waiting room. Dr. Ngo is a very kind and knowledgeable person; you can tell he has a passion for what he does! He takes the time to get to know you and your goals for your teeth and walks you through the entire process. Overall I would 100% recommend S&L to anyone seeking amazing dental care! His detailed work and amazing reviews really speak for themselves.

    We moved to Scottsdale about six or seven years ago. My wife did a ton of research before picking a…read moredentist and she chose S&L with Dr. David Ngo. I went with a different place at first because it was closer to where we were living. Well, that turned out to be a mistake. I ended up having a bad experience there and finally switched to S&L. Dr. Ngo and his team fixed everything the other dentist had messed up. Right away I knew my wife had been right all along. I've been going to S&L for four years now and they really are the best dental office I've ever been to. Dr. Ngo has removed all my old metal fillings and replaced them with modern ones, plus he's done a couple of crowns for me. Everything looks and feels great. My wife has also been extremely happy with all the work he's done for her too. I'm almost 55 and I've seen a bunch of top-rated, highly recommended dentists over the years, both here in the US and a couple in Mexico. Nothing else comes close. One thing I have to mention is how good Dr. Ngo is with people who hate dental visits or get nervous about pain. His work is excellent, but it's the way he takes care of you that makes the biggest difference. For example, the way he does Novocaine shots is unbelievable. You barely feel it at all. Every dentist out there should learn his technique. With all that said, I do think the front office experience could be better. If the customer service up front matched Dr. David's clearly caring vibe, it would be 100% perfect. If you're looking for a truly professional dentist who gives five-star care and service, this is the place. Dr. David Ngo at S&L is the only one I would recommend without any hesitation.

After my last few visits, I will not be returning, nor will any of my family members. At my last appointment for a cleaning, the hygienist was telling me how dirty my teeth were and told me that I don't brush or floss my teeth. Well, I don't know how I've made it this far in life without brushing my teeth! She made me feel awful about my teeth and made me feel like a disgusting human who apparently doesn't brush or floss. I had a few cavities and made a follow up appt to get them filled. I was given the appt with paperwork stating what teeth would be getting the fillings. It's a good thing I kept that paperwork! I showed up to the appt for the fillings and was told my appt was never made and was never put into the system. Yet I had the paperwork showing otherwise! They took me anyway since it was their mistake, but I was treated as a walk in and made to wait, wait, wait. I had another appointment that I booked 2.5 hours after this one and I had to actually contact the business of my next appointment and notify them that I would be late. And sure enough I was 30 minutes late to my next appointment because of Avalon dental's incompetency. Speaking of incompetence.....approximately 6-8 months after this, I had a dental cleaning at a different dental office and found out that I had a "huge" cavity that Avalon dental missed! It was so large that had it gone any longer I would have needed a crown! The cavity was clearly visible on the x-rays taken at Avalon and they never treated it or informed me of the cavity. One of my family members actually did have a crown placed through Avalon dental and the whole experience was nothing but a nightmare! They told my family member that they ran the paperwork with the insurance company and that the crown was covered. My family member had the procedure and was then hit with a massive bill from the insurance company. Avalon dental never cleared it with the insurance first and said they did! My family member then had to get more medical documentation and basically do Avalon Dental's job for them with submitting required paperwork and documentation to the insurance company to get this covered, which is what Avalon claimed they did, but did NOT! The woman in the office that handles insurance and billing is EXTREMELY RUDE! Called multiple times requesting that we contact the insurance company to pay them. Is that not her job? I contacted the insurance company and per the insurance company, they had 90 days in which to provide Avalon dental with the payment and it would be payed in 90 days. I called and let the insurance/billing lady at Avalon dental know this and she continued to call us MULTIPLE times requesting a check from the insurance company! UNBELIEVABLE!!!!! Again, this is her job to contact the insurance company....why were we having to do her job for her? Not to mention she continued talking over us on the phone, kept interrupting us multiple times, and would not let us speak! She was calling us up like a bill collector when it was out of our hands. We told you, the insurance will pay you in 90 days! QUIT calling! We QUIT coming to Avalon dental after these incidents. Will not be coming back. EDIT: The business thinks I have the wrong dental business because of my name and location being California. I have the correct business and I was a patient of yours more than once. I travel to the valley here MULTIPLE times per year and have well over 200 reviews for Arizona businesses, including yours. If you took a look at my reviews, check-ins, and photos, you'd know that. I was just in Phoenix this morning. As for my name, this is a variation of my name. Just because it doesn't exactly match my medical record, doesn't mean I was not a patient of this office. I do not wist to talk to you or anyone from this business. I shared my experience with your business on a review site. Please learn to take negative feedback to build a better business for current and future customers/patients.
