On Sunday afternoon I broke my front tooth. I called Castle Dental as soon as they opened on…read moreMonday, explained my situation and they told me to come in as soon as I could. I was there about 40 minutes later expecting to just have a consultation with a plan for repairing my tooth at another time. I was prepared to go a few days with a very unattractive, tooth gaping smile. I was taken to exam room almost immediately. Dr. Cerelli told me my tooth could be repaired with a crown and it could be done at this visit if I had time. When I left the office I had a temporary crown on my tooth (so no gappy smile) and an appointment in 3 weeks to get the permanent crown put on. I have been going to Castle Dental in Bastrop for over 3 years and have never had any complaints but this was over and above what I expected. I have had cleanings and a tooth implant done here in the past. Dr. Cerelli and all the staff are amazing!

When she was doing the casting I told her I moved my mouth to align my teeth. She said it was fine. From day one they hurt and was told the bite was off. Over and over I went in . Ya think? Cause I aligned my teeth and didn't let them sit in a natural way. She said it was fine.. excuse after excuse for there mess up. I now own a pair of partials that don't fit and are falling apart after only a year or so. I'm literally glueing them back every 3 months. It is disgraceful the work they do. New manager called me about just under a year later and I told her they were crap and all the hell I went through. . She just said sorry and there is nothing they can do. Excuse me? You made me a crappy pair of partials. Used all my insurance. I can't even wear them. When I do have to so much pain that I take them out as soon as I get in the car from going somewhere . So you can take all my money and leave me with a crappy pair of partials? It's ridiculous how much dental offices can get away with. They also screw up billing all the time. It really makes me not want to go to any dentist. Legit traumatized . I can't afford it now anyway cause they made sure to use all my coverage for BS. Made me a bite guard from hell. Not even able to use that as well. It's horrible. But all I get is a sorry and not we will make it right. Don't waist your time. These people are chaotic all the way around and will rob you blind. The partials were over $2000! 3 teeth and made like crap. Plus the other hundreds for bs things.

I can't say enough good things about Dr. Seth Briggs and his staff at Austin Orthodontics. Honestly, it was a bit by chance that my daughter's orthodontic care was transferred to Dr. Briggs when we moved from out of state a few years ago, but he managed and completed her care with great results. He has since treated my son with expansion as we continue to monitor his development, and we believe in Dr. Briggs so much that even my wife is in treatment to address issues from previous orthodontic care. Aside from the confidence that I have in Dr. Brigg's professional skills and acumen, his chair side manner, personality and demeanor make it clear that he really cares. One of the highest compliments is when colleagues entrust you with their care and that of their family. So, if it is any indication just how well thought of Dr. Briggs is as an orthodontist and a person, I know of several other dental professionals that put their families' orthodontic care in the hands of Dr. Briggs and his fantastic staff.

I promised myself I would write this review before the end of the year, so here it is!…read more I had a very poor, but formative, experience at Avery Orthodontics. My case was transferred in 2022, but I wanted to complete treatment with another orthodontist and take a mental break before writing this. 1. The sales/mock-up presentation that led me to sign the contract was very different from the treatment that was actually carried out (see photos). I noticed this immediately in the "final" mockup and brought it up. 2. I was told not to worry - that the mock-up "wouldn't look like that in real life." Over time, however, I began to see that it was certainly trending in that direction. And that's all fine. The issue is that it took an excessive amount of effort to get Dr. Barnett to truly listen to and engage with my feedback. At times, I felt dismissed or made to feel unreasonable for raising concerns about my own teeth. I eventually had to learn orthodontic terminology to clearly communicate what I was seeing, and at some point he finally started taking me seriously. Only after a very long, emotionally taxing process and multiple course corrections did things begin to improve. During treatment, I experienced a chipped tooth, went into braces, and incurred significant travel costs flying back to Austin after relocating to Los Angeles. My projected treatment time was 8 months; it ultimately took two-ish years under Dr. Barnett. Toward the end, I decided to transfer my case to another orthodontist. I was happier with the overall direction, communication, and results. The treatment I received at the new orthodontist made the difference in potential care very clear. That said, there was lasting damage. My front teeth now have enamel wear that did not exist prior to treatment, and I recently required a root canal on one of my front teeth under endodontic care (due to orthodontic stress, not hygiene issues). My teeth and enamel were healthy before this process began. This experience was genuinely traumatic, though it also taught me important lessons about self-advocacy as a person and as a patient. Patients often expect doctors to be technical experts but also communicative and attentive. IMPORTANT- The care team and staff were excellent - kind, organized, and professional. They consistently treated me like a human being and were the reason I stayed as long as I did. I see that Dr. Barnett has many positive reviews, and I don't doubt that many patients have had good experiences - especially children whose primary goal is bite correction. However, if you are an adult patient with aesthetic concerns, I would personally recommend an orthodontist who explicitly integrates aesthetic concerns into treatment planning and communication. I will edit later with photos.

My wonderful general dentist, Dr. Shipra Gupta at Lakeline Family Dental suggested I have a consultation with Dr. Akash Pandya, (Doc Ak) at SmileOn. The first visit was very comprehensive and various treatment options and payment plans were presented. I was grateful that my dental insurance would cover most of the cost. I decided to get the clear Angel aligners. I was awed and a bit overwhelmed by the equipment in the office and the ability to take a few pictures and have aligners made for the year. The front office staff, the patient care coordinator, and the certified dental assistants are GREAT. You can have the best dental work but, staff makes the difference. Always encouraging and happy. And, every staff member has beautiful teeth. That, to me, was a good sign. -- Doc Ak and staff try to make the orthodontist visits a little fun by having monthly contests, raffles, and quizzes. While these activities are probably geared more toward younger patients, I must admit, I did participate in some of them. Prizes are awarded to the monthly winners and are announced in the informative monthly newsletter. Most of the activity with the aligners took place at home. I would take weekly pictures of the aligners in and out of my mouth using the Grin app and then progress to the next aligner after SmileOn review. I didn't think I would get through a years' worth of weekly aligner changes but, here I am, almost at the end of my treatment. Next step - whitening. I AM SO GLAD I MADE THE DECISION TO HAVE MY TEETH STRAIGTENED. I can't imagine a better orthodontist or practice than SmileOn. You deserve a terrific smile.
