If you are a liberal leaning parent, please scroll past my review. This review is for conservative…read moreleaning parents. I brought my child to this practice a year or so ago because of their surgical availability. The experience I had with my child getting some fillings done was excellent. The follow up in the Bridgeport office? Again, excellent. This review is strictly for the Shelton office. That office cares more about legal liability and billing than they do about your child. I have serious reservations about unnecessary dental procedures for my child. With all of the information coming out about fluoride, as a concerned mother, I have opted out of fluoride for my child...no biggie but if you are the same, be warned - their only concern is that they are the "experts" and you are moron who drools on yourself. They were condescending when I brought up my concern and made me sign a waiver to remove their legal liability. OK. Strike One. At our most recent visit, the hygienist explained that it is standard to X-ray your child (even if there is no concern) at the age my child is. I explained I am not ok with exposing my child to radiation unless it is absolutely necessary. This time I was again given a waiver and condescension. Strike two. There will be no strike three. I will not be bringing my precious child back to a place that places billing for unnecessary X-rays and avoiding legal liability above the well being of my child and I do not think any other parent should either. If there is an issue with any child because of the fluoride THEY RECOMMEND I hope they get sued into oblivion. After COVID these "experts" can go pound sand. A piece of paper does NOT make you smarter or better read than the rest of us. Treat parents with the respect the deserve or go into another business. These people make me sick.

I unfortunately have to edit my first review. I originally posted about how trustworthy and kind…read morethis dentist was and that does still stand for my first few visits. Fast forward 8 months, I went back in for another cleaning. The hygienist did great and was personable. Still needing quite a bit of work, I requested to speak with the dentist. Unlike the first time, she almost seemed bothered and rushed through my questions, giving me no real treatment plan other than saying I need an extraction. Upon checking out, I was informed that I had a "large credit from 8 months ago" but they wouldn't give me an exact dollar amount. Needing to get back to work, I let it go and scheduled my appointment for an extraction. Upon receiving the estimated financials for the extraction, I found that they added $300 x-rays for an implant that I never asked for as well as a $156 "evaluation" fee even though they told me the tooth would be evaluated at my cleaning. I called the office to inquire and they said it must have been a mix-up regarding the implant x-rays and the oral surgeon indeed did charge $156 just for looking at the tooth prior to the $750 extraction. I proceeded to ask why my past credit was withheld from me for 8 months as it would have been useful to pay off a credit card I put the treatment on and was incurring interest. They had no answer other than "I don't know." With all of the odd billing problems, I cancelled my appointment for now. Edit: After contact with the office manager, she was kind and did her best to resolve the issue. She thoroughly explained the situation, apologized for the error and promptly issued me a check for the credit including interest. While I believe its important to highlight the problems, I think it is equally as important to highlight the initiative they took to fix them. I do sincerely thank them for doing their best to resolve the issue in a fair manner. At the end of the day, we are all human and make mistakes. I do believe the location has the potential to be great.

First I was told the full mouth X rays are covered by my insurance (they were not). Then the estimate for the root canal and how the amount the insurance would cover was wrong. Then the extraction costs were higher due to difficulty, which it did not seem to be. Finally I paid the bill at the end and put it behind me. Now one year later I receive a text that I owe another $540 and will be sent to collection if not paid. When I asked the reason for the additional cost the answer was not satisfactory. The best part about it all, is the tooth feels loose and I don't feel comfortable using that side. If you know a good dentist please tell me.
