I had decided on dentures after years of pain and she assured me this was something she could do. A full upper was done. She then told me my four front lower teeth had to go and she could make me a lower partial that looked like a retainer. So she extracted those as well. $8500.00 later she out right refused to finish my bottom partial. Her treatment coordinator simply replied to every question I had with " You have been referred to another dentist." Dr. Theda was paid in full for this work both by my insurance and in cash by me. I have no idea why she referred me. My insurance will not pay twice for same procedure and I am left withOUT four bottom front teeth. The office did offer me a refund but it was so little I can not make my mouth whole until I save enough money to pay for the copays at another dentist.

I grew up witnessing my parents and their siblings losing their teeth young. They were children of…read moreimmigrants; poverty and malnutrition in their youth played a role. They grew up over 100 years ago. This gave me a strong drive to maintain my teeth. After a bad dental report from another office, I called Bend Family Dentistry hoping to get a 2nd opinion. The woman who answered immediately went into action to see what they could do for me. Weeks later I walked out of Bend Family Dentistry on 3rd Street in Bend, my teeth properly cleaned and I'm smiling. I witnessed confident employees who love their jobs. I highly recommend Bend Family Dentistry. They provide excellent quality work, show compassion and listen to you, and their prices are reasonable. I understand and recognize good communicators of professionalism. Thank you Bend Family Dentistry!

During their appointment, there's usually a show or movie playing. Then after their appointment, there's a prize wall. We took my daughter here since she was 18 months until age 3 and we loved it. She always looked forward to coming. We saw Dr. Steve and he was awesome. One star off because the staff/receptionists never told me that they were no longer in-network. I called my insurance and they said technically they should've notified me. I'm not about to check before every appointment whether an office is still in-network. I do feel they should've told me so that I didn't have to pay for services that would've been considered 'free' to us. Besides this, we highly recommend this place.

My husband goes to Dr. Burket's office for both dental and primary doctor purposes. He actually switched from Summit because he had a bad experience. Dr. Burket took care of my husband, just as we'd expect from any primary doctor. He got to do bloodwork (which Summit deprived him of and said "Just do it next year"). Well my husband has high cholesterol so we wasted a year when we could've been working on it (no thanks to Summit!). Dr. Burket made sure my husband was taken care of. His dental appointment also went well. Now for my own experience - I had one dental appointment last year in 2021 (and I go elsewhere for my primary doctor). Well I had an appointment this year in January but could not make it so when I canceled, they said the next available appointment was in September. I did not want to wait that long so I moved over to another dental clinic. No hard feelings but I wish they were able to hire more hygienists or something. We still highly recommend this office! I think Dr. Burket does a little of everything too (including pediatrics).

Nothing was really ever fixed I went to another orthodontist who proceeded to ask me who the hell did what they did to my mouth and asked for names and proceeded to tell me what they did was NOT in practice. I was forced back into braces for another 3 years. Over these 3 years I had mentioned this first encounter with braces to many dentists and even oral surgeons all of which had nothing but negative things to say and some of which even had their own similar experiences with them specifically. They all warn of the orthodontists at bluefish and I do as well NOT THE PLACE FOR BRACES JUST ASK AROUND. They are the bottom of the barrel and extremely disrespectful.

I wish I could come here. In addition we lost our insurance when exorbitant 2026 rates kicked in, and Deschutes Pediatric went above and beyond by checking into whether the kids were covered by OHP- (they were, yay!) and the dentist, who knew we had a lot of other expensive costs going on, even reached out and offered to do sealants at no charge for our son. They clearly care a lot about their little patients. Love them!

As much as I didn't want to do that, I felt we had no choice and so I agreed. The appt for anesthesia was more than 2 months out and I was told it would be completely covered with nothing out of pocket. A week before the anesthesia appt, I am told they (anesthesiologists) are collecting a $1100.00 fee because the anesthesiologist is out of network with all insurances. Not one person from Deschutes pediatric dentistry told us or even warned us money may be collected separately. If I was told this 2 months ago when the appointment was scheduled, I could have prepared and saved accordingly. Instead, I'm given a week notice right before Christmas. I'm sure the dentist has $1100 lying around, but I do not. Bad communication, bad training of office staff.
