    I've been a patient of Dr Gutta twice now, the first time at his Midland office and the second time…read moreat his Odessa office. He removed an impacted wisdom tooth for me in 2015, and he removed a broken molar, did a bone graft, and installed a post for a future implant in December of 2020. He also removed a second (thankfully I only developed two) impacted wisdom tooth that was trying to dig its way into my sinus cavity on the same visit in December 2020. Both times, he has been happy to explain in detail what he was doing and why it was needed, what medications he was prescribing or not prescribing and why, and what he recommended for future treatment. He hasn't tried to push for any additional procedures, with the exception of a letter letting me know that he had started offering cosmetic surgery such as face lifts in 2016, about a year after my original visit. Yes, his work is expensive. So is every other oral surgeon out there. My first extraction with him, in 2015, cost a little less than $1200. My second set of extractions, bone graft, and post, in 2020, cost a little over $4300. The abutment that he'll do before it's ready for a crown is set to cost $220, and then another dentist will take over to do the crown. All of my visits have been done under anesthesia, since local anesthetics don't work well for me, so that's contributed to my costs. All of my dental work has been paid out of pocket as well, since I don't have dental insurance. Yes, he can be a little bit abrupt, and he is very blunt- he doesn't pull punches when explaining what's wrong or how you've contributed to the problem. I can see how some people might interpret that as rude, but he's never been rude to me. He told me flat out that if I don't take better care of my teeth, I'll end up needing more pulled or replaced, and it'll be sooner rather than later. I've never heard him yell at anyone, cuss at anyone, or berate anyone. Most surgeons have a degree of arrogance, so maybe I've just written it off as that, but I've had someone with me to drive me home after each appointment, and they didn't see any rudeness from him either. All in all, I feel that I've gotten solid care from Dr Gutta and his staff. Obviously I hope not to need his care often, but I have absolutely no hesitation recommending him to others, and I intend to use his practice in future if and when I need an oral surgeon again.

    My daughter had what we think was an infection caused by a broken tooth. Mind you she is anxious…read moreand extremely fearful of dentists and needles. I appreciate that Dr. Gutya was kind and gentle with her. As of today she is on the mend after what could have been a much more traumatic experience and doing well! Thank you for the patience and understanding of my fearful lady child and making sure we don't have to go through this again!

I was referred to Basin Dentistry for extraction of tooth #4 and #19 and placement of bone grafts for future implants. I had my first visit on 05/19 when I was given an estimate of close to $15,000 for all the phases of the treatment. I agreed with the treatment plan and out of pocket cost. The sequence of negative and unpleasant interactions started with Dr Veronica Burnuy, the dentist assigned to provide the needed dental care. I knew the procedure would require conscious sedation via venous access but was not ready for the painful "digging" of my vein by Dr Burnuy. She appeared to be frustrated by the way she was handling my arm ( very rough). She finally obtained access after "digging" again in another spot. Needless to say I left the office with a terrible bruise on my arm. During the extraction of tooth #19, Dr Burnuy broke the crown on tooth #20 but had no decency to explain what occurred during the procedure. At first, the office staff said that it was a filling that came out of tooth #20 but I knew for a fact it was a crown placed by another dentist within the past year and have dental record to verify. An office staff member called back to inform it would cost me an additional $1,200 on top of an initial $15,000 treatment plan so I requested all my dental records to be sent to a dentist of my choice and informed I would complete the remaining dental work established by the plan of care at another dental practice. Dr Burnuy called back on 06/02 offering to replace the crown at no cost with the understanding I would complete the remaining planof care at Basin Dentistry. During the call she blamed her blunder on "cheap materials" used on the crown placed by another dentist but finally agreed to replace the crown at no cost. How unprofessional of her to blame another provider for something she was in charge. An appointment was scheduled for a few weeks later when she would remove the membranes covering the grafts, and get a temporary crown to replace the one she broke. On July 17, I showed up for my appointment and as usual she presented with very poor chairside manner, very cold, unempathetic, insensitive, and very businesslike. She got very defensive and annoyed with my questions related to the bone graft and next phase of the treatment. She presented to be rushed, rough, and not gentle at all while applying the anesthesia on the bone graft that was still painful and healing. The anesthesia shot was by far the most painful I have ever experienced in my entire life. I have seen plenty of dentist my whole life and know for a fact that anesthesia is given gradually and at different spots but she applied the entire dosage at once in the same area. I even told her " you are not gentle....you are rough " and she replied saying "you are the only one complaining ". I have never been subject to such total lack of empathy by a Healthcare provider. Dr Burnuy left the area to see another patient and after about 30 minutes with the effects of anesthesia wearing off and no signs of her returning to treat me, I got up from the chair and requested to be seeing by another dentist but I would be responsible for the cost of crown Dr Burnuy broke. I will "eat" the cost to replace the crown with another dentist but will never allow Dr Burnuy to provide any further dental care to me again. Dr Burnuy is responsible for the majority of negative reviews Basin Dentistry has on Google and this is a fact. I am happy to see that I am not "the only one complaining" about her. I am a senior citizen and also a Healthcare provider. I have no expectations that Dr Burnuy will change her demeanor towards patients because being caring and kind is not natural to her and she can't do anything about it. She is also part-owner of Basin Dentistry and probably has no one to report or be accountable. She is young and still has time to switch career path to Animal Dentistry as on my humble opinion she has no business dealing with humans.
