My last experience was so dramatically different from anything I had experienced in the past that felt compelled to write this review. Many years ago I went through a similar procedure at this office. The man that founded Periodontics of southern Illinois is now deceased . He was very patient oriented. He made every effort to make sure the patient was not stressed, or in pain. And he succeeded in that regard so effectively that I almost fell asleep while I was being worked on. My most recent experience was so far removed from my first experience that the two were not even on the same planet! I experienced severe pain with every injection (to numb the areas being worked on). The resulting technique, applied to the area of the gum, was rough and did nothing to instill any confidence that things were being done correctly. Certainly not precisely In good conscience I cannot recommend Periodontics of Southern Illinois to anyone needing periodontics work. It's a shame that this office has deteriorated so dramatically. The man who founded this business and who cared for his patients comfort passed away and now we're left with younger people who don't seem to recognize the importance of patient comfort. They seem to be more interested in getting through each patient as fast as possible and collecting the money. Very disappointing!!!

I came to Stone Falls Dental Care with some periodontal issues after not seeing a dentist for…read moreseveral years, due to covid restrictions and time/money constraints. I was nervous going in my first time, but everyone from the front desk staff to the hygienists and head dentist is really great. I've been four times now this year: for an initial exam, two periodontal deep cleans, and another checkup. They do quality work, offer payment plans, the office itself is pleasant, and the appointments seem to go by really quickly. The only con is that sometimes it takes a while to get seen, so be sure to book early. My teeth feel so much better after working with them for a few months and I'm grateful for that. I highly recommend Stone Falls Dental Care to any adult who needs a dentist / dental home.

I pondered whether I should write this review or not. Fortunately, I didn't have to make the…read moredecision as it was made for me. About 7 months or so ago I went in for a cleaning and much to my dismay I was told I had 5 cavities. In the first 30 years of my life I had none, but now I have five. That should have been my first indicator. About a week after my first round of cavities being filled the exact spot of one cavity became extremely sensitive to cold or heat so I go back in. Her explanation, my gum has receded some so that was causing the sensitivity on the top of my tooth in the exact spot she filled my cavity. Right, so she puts something on the exposed part of my tooth to help and within 2 days it had all fallen off. Several weeks later I went in to have the remaining 3 cavities filled, only I was told they were filling 2 cavities. After I paid and was about to walk out the tech come rushing out informing me they hadn't filled one of the cavities and wanted to know if I wanted to come back in and start the process all over again. I think not. So by this point, I've decided that I will never set foot in this place again. Now, a full 6 months after my last treatment I get a bill in the mail saying I have an unpaid balance that is over 90 days due. First, I paid my balance in full after my last appointment so why do I all of a sudden have an unpaid balance. Second, how is this the first letter I got concerning this. This insinuates that I've got at least 2 other letters and have not bothered to pay up. I had thought this place was suspect early on but this was just the straw that broke the camel's back. On Tuesday I'm going to go in on my lunch break, pay my past due balance and walk out of that place and never go back. I hope that if anyone is looking for a dentist reads this and avoids this place like the plague. If you are looking for quality dentistry work and a professional experience, please look elsewhere.
