Thankfully, I didn't need any actual work done so our time together was limited, but, if I did I would have 100% confidence in Dr. Bucker. I recently moved out of the area and just had a terrible experience with one of those "chain" dental groups. I felt homesick for this dental group immediately.

I had my first appointment today and I was blown away! I've never had such a great experience in a…read moredentist's office, and it's all thanks to Dan (my hygienist)! Dan explained everything through the entire process with me. Why certain things happen, what the treatment does, etc., answering all of my questions. And in a way that was so kind and not condescending at all! For example, my gum eroded on one tooth where I used to have braces, and my previous providers never told me what that was or how it impacted my dental health. I never knew it was a problem! (In fact, I don't think I've ever had my gums measured, which they do in the office.) So it kept getting worse to where now the root is partially exposed, which is difficult or can't be repaired. He was worried about rambling on with his explanation, but it was actually so helpful! I learned so much in a single appointment than I had my entire life receiving dental care. I think that if I learned this earlier on I would have avoided a few cavities or drilling. Now that I know what Dan has taught me (in a single visit, mind you!!!), I feel more confident that I can turn things around with my dental health for the better (not that it's horrible, but I have room for improvement). And he's so nice that I want to do better, so I don't disappoint him if I, for example, don't floss. Which is a positive motivator! He shows genuine care toward his patients, and it really shows, not just in his demeanor, but in how thorough and careful he is with his cleaning. He seemed focused on making me confident on how we can improve together, especially emphasizing which issues are perfectly normal and unavoidable due to anatomy. You will not be berated on being "wrong" or "lazy". I felt more empowered in my care. He also informed me that any sealants I get are constantly monitored (they took pictures today) every time I come in for a visit, so if anything happens to them, they will replace them with no questions asked for free! I've never experienced this level of service at a dentist's office. I've been receiving mediocre care all this time and thought it was normal. This office has raised the bar for what dental care should be like! Highly recommended. Thanks for such amazing care, Dan!

I came to Lalor Dental Vestal as a new patient from out of state with an active periodontal…read morecondition that had already been fully diagnosed by my previous dentist (moved), including current X-rays, pocket depth measurements, and a DNA bacterial test. The office rejected my wish to send my existing X-rays and pocket depth records when I called and made an appointment, requiring me to repeat testing that had already been done. The X-ray process took 40 minutes and was very painful which I am not used to in previous annual cleanings, but the hygienist was great and helped normalize that most patients say it's uncomfortable as well. She and the man who greeted me in-person at the front desk are the only reason this is not "0" stars. Dr. Attal showed little interest in my existing documentation or the urgency of my situation, which was very frustrating to me since I was experiencing pain. I was asked to schedule yet another separate appointment just to re-measure pocket depths already on file. Not every patient has the time or financial resources for repeated appointments and duplicate testing, especially when dealing with a painful gum condition requiring prompt treatment. I left feeling dismissed and no closer to the treatment I needed. I will now be driving 7 hours one way to see my previous dentist because Lalor was unwilling to provide the care I need. I would not recommend Dr. Attal to patients who come in with existing records or complex dental needs.

UN-fortunately I have a good amount of bone loss, and even some gum disease- that caused this current infection. SMOKING and COFFEE have had a poor effect on my 61 year old mouth. I was prescribed an antibiotic and advised on some better hygiene methods that would improve my gum health. I was never made to feel dirty or dumb! Though of course I need to stop smoking! I made an appointment for a cleaning-(it was so affordable I was angry I waited!) By the time my cleaning came around, the infection was healed. But the true highlight WAS my cleaning. The technician was professional and really took the effort to explain things and to make sure I was comfortable. She took the extra effort to really clean even my most coffee stained lower front teeth. I was worried the lady's hands would get tired! The ladies at the front desk were pleasant and professional, and the care was very good. I'm SO glad I picked Summit!

My wife has been involved in a tooth implant procedure with you folks for nearly one year now and…read moreshe still has no tooth. The numerous and lengthy delays for various reasons have created a severe and crippling hardship on my wife and her family. On her last visit, she was anticipating the final appt. for installing her implant but was told that, due to an infection discovered, she'd have to see a specialist to address the infection before her implant could be installed. Since then, we've been trying to CONTACT the specialist to make this arrangement but have not been able to due to holiday closings and his severely limited hours of operation. Now, it looks like it'll be MONTHS more before she can finally get her tooth.
