Thus, I drove in the high heat to the office for my appointment even though I am older and the heat makes me fatigued and ill. When I got there they tried to force dirty ionizing radiation old school dental X-rays upon me. I asked if they had the new radiation free DEXIS CARIVU technology and they did not, but they had said prior that they would not force me to get dirty ionizing radiation scans. But when I got to the office, I felt tricked. They said they wouldn't do the exam without forcing me to be exposed to the radiation cancer-causing scans. They tried claim the x-rays are low dose as ever as the industry has lied about for decades. However, there is no safe dose of ionizing radiation according to LNT, just look it up. IONIZING RADIATION IS A KNOWN CLASS 1 CARCINOGEN. The only safe dose is no dose. Everyone should be asking for the new dental technology and RADIATION-FREE DENTAL EXAMS! These dentists should not be forcing cancer-causing scans on their patients. The first rule of a healthcare provider should be to DO NO HARM. Especially for children.

I scheduled it as I was sitting in the chair with my hygienist. she even said she would be the one to clean my teeth that date. When the time came they texted me a day before saying there will not be anyone here to clean your teeth, and that I needed to reschedule. The next available date was four months out. It was actually after my next scheduled appointment. I just called to get that date in November rescheduled. They told me the next available date was in April. It will be almost a year since I've gotten my previous cleaning when they suggested I get two cleanings a year.

I didn't realize that they don't have a endodental surgeon on staff and they are a common dentist preforming root canals until after we were referred by Dentistry for Kids. It took several days to get an appointment and then they couldn't finish the job during the first appointment and wanted us to come back months later. I insisted they make an appointment much sooner much to their dismay. Hey also wanted to charge us $1,300 out of pocket without unstanding our estimate of benefits. I argued that they are wrong and I'd like a breakdown of our estimate of benefits, that they could not provide. Finally after they scheduled us a date to finish the root canal weeks after the initial procedure I asked about prescriptions since my daughter has been in immense pain and was concerned about continual infection. I asked about penicillin and the dentist reply "oh yeah I guess that would be a good idea". WTF kind of place is this???? My daughter has been screaming in pain for several nights still waiting for these idiots to finish the job. DO NOT USE THIS FLY BY NIGHT OPERATION!!!!!!!!

They were incredibly patient, checked in with me throughout the appointment, and offered breaks whenever I needed them--something that made a huge difference for me.

I am extremely grateful to him and his team for the care and understanding they showed.

I went to Vida requesting new whitening trays. Dr. Detrik talked me into having the much more…read moreexpensive teeth whitening treatment done, saying its actually so good for the teeth, really wonderful chemistry and better than any other kind of whitening treatment and also, Id get the whitening trays along with the treatment. I say sure, go for it. Dial forward, Im in the chair getting this treatment done and the hygenist notes that my teeth are "already paper white." She seems a bit worried about the whitening going too far. We go through the treatment and afterward Im handed a bag that does not have whitening trays in it. I ask Dr. Detrik where they are. He says "Oh, you really dont need them, your teeth are already white. I had them include a light that you can use instead but honestly you dont really need to." I say nope, I want trays, isnt that what you did the whole high-tech super accurate mapping of my mouth for? Isnt that what I actually came here for, and what I actually paid for? Not this light that I could have bought on Amazon for $20?" So they ORDER my trays. Mind you, I had just paid them to put goop on my teeth to open the surface of my teeth chemically to allow the HOME tray treatment to work better. You are supposed to have the treatment then follow up with whitening trays the following two weeks because THAT is when the whitening happens. At home, with the trays. The trays he didnt order at the time I paid for this treatment because he was very clear in his mind that I do not actually NEED the 3k treatment he talked me into doing. And the trays? They arrived via mail about a month later. Far too late for the at home whitening to benefit from that treatment I just went through, spent so much money on. So, you tell me? What is the top priority for this dentist, this office? Is the top priority caring for your teeth in a clinically appropriate, and necessary way? Or is it $omething el$e?
