My daughter was getting married in a few months. She said I was not allowed to be there unless I…read moregot my teeth fixed, as she did not want her new in-laws to judge me (and her) based on a missing front tooth. "I know that your tooth was knocked out when the metal end of a dog lease hit you in the face, but everyone else probably thinks you're a meth head." Harsh words. I hope that most people are not that judgmental, but I am socially handicapped by my freakish empathy, unable in many cases to see the bad in people, even after I have been harmed by them. Besides, I do not enjoy having a jarring hole in my face where my front tooth should be. I have noticed the recoil on people's faces when I forget to cover my smile with my hand or to not smile no matter what. So I readily agreed to find a dentist to fix things and give the name and number to my daughter. She had figured the cost of fixing my teeth into her wedding budget. (Although I felt such shame and guilt that not only could I not pay for my daughter's wedding but she had to pay to make me presentable enough to attend, I also felt the love she demonstrated in her offer.) Now, I have zero patience for things like researching dentists. So on the last possible day to submit contact information, I randomly chose ProSmile Dental Implant Center from online listings. Not only am I an empath, but apparently I am also psychic, for my random pick turned out to have chosen the best dentist possible!! Besides the cosmetic repair, I also needed the dentist to clear me to have a knee surgery. Sounds unrelated, I agree. But the anesthesiologist doesn't want you to die in their care, and dying during anesthesia is more possible if you have any infection in your teeth. I had been afraid to see a dentist because I cannot take any pain medication. I had last had a tooth pulled in the 1990s, and I remember the hurt. I avoided the dentist for more than a decade. And that's why, before I could get a bridge, I needed 7-SEVEN!- teeth pulled due to infection. I had a consultation first, during which I was happy to discover that all the staff were very nice. But I have experienced this first visit kindness at other dental offices, only to discover that I am treated not so well next time I am there. So I was wary. I went to my appointment like a lamb to slaughter. I was treated very well prior to inhaling the knock out vapor by everyone who works there. When I woke up, of course I was still numb where my teeth had been removed, and my mouth was filled with stitches. I was absolutely dreading the moment that the novacaine would wear off. And here is the entire reason I wrote this wordy essay: Despite avoiding the dentist for years due to fear of pain, despite everyone warning me that I would be super uncomfortable and have bruises on my face, despite being so scared prior to the surgery tears rolled down my cheeks, in the days after I had SEVEN teeth pulled from my gums, I HAD ABSOLUTELY NOT A SECOND, NOT EVEN A TWINGE, OF PAIN. Read that again: I had NO PAIN after getting 7 teeth pulled out and a bit of gum repair surgery too. This blew my mind. I suppose it's true that techniques and technology updates helped create this result, but those things still are provided by the dentist himself. So I write this to highly highly recommend ProSmile Dental Implant Center based solely on the fact that I had no pain at all. It was a few weeks before my bridge could be installed. There were two delays because the new teeth were not the exact match in color to my remaining teeth. This drove my poor daughter out of her mind as her wedding was a week or two out, but I didn't mind a bit! These wonderful people wanted absolute perfection. Even when I said it looked good, the team recognized a slight difference, and they brought the lab guy in to fix it. He was able to rush it and it was all good the next day! I am certain that any other dentist would have gone ahead with the sub par work when I said it was fine with me. But not them. They insisted they make it perfect, and I am very glad they did. I was able to attend my daughter's wedding without hiding my smile. As far as I know, her new in-laws don't think I am a meth head, at least not based on my teeth. And I can attest to the fact that not having to worry that a stranger will gasp involuntarily when they see you grin a toothless grin at them is truly a life changing improvement. It takes a few weeks to lose the habit of a no teeth smile, but soon you return to how you were before you lost any teeth, and it is WONDERFUL. Thank you to ProSmile Dental Implant Center, and especially thank you to my beautiful daughter. Love is awesome!

Dr. Rabot is hands down the BEST oral surgeon! I dont even know where to begin . (This is a long…read moreone ) 1. I probably have one of the VERY worst dental phobias you can imagine from bad childhood early adult dentist experiences. Im talking trembling , shaking uncontrollably , sweating to the point my glasses would fog up , nausea , heart pounding fear . And that lead to a lot of years of neglect on my part. Ive had a dentist use the max amount of shots to numb me and look me in my face like i was crazy and tell me "sorry I cant give you any more" when I tried to tell them I could still feel it , not a little bit, like fully feel it . Dr. Rabot was the FIRST of many to actually take the time and hear me. Right off the bat he explained that he would try a different technique that required an injection into the back of my jaw and that it would not be the most pleasant but it should do the trick. When I tell you this man did extractions and implants with less pain that ive had for a cavity/root canal/ simple extraction. The whole time talking me thru what he was doing , making sure I was ok and comfortable the entire time. His chairside manor is incredible and he just has a very calming and assuring way about him . 2nd Dr. Rabot has given me several implants and a few weeks into the 3rd one it had failed (it happens) . And it was CHRISTMAS morning , I texted Dr. Rabot early in the morning and sent him a video of me wiggiling my implant with my tounge. His response ? "I can be at the office in 30 minutes , or would you be more comfortable in the hospital setting because we can go there too". ON CHRISTMAS MORNING !! I am not a fan of hospitals so I went with the office. 30 min and he had me in the chair , numbed up , implant out and bone grafting done , 3-4 months later new implant and back in buisness (2nd attempt did not fail ) 3rd EVERY SINGLE TIME he has done any surgery on my HE calls me to check up on me. Not an assistant. 4th he has never made me feel stupid for my insane phobia , only been supportive and understanding. 5th VERY VERY clean office VERY kind staff . I DO not give out 5 star reviews easy . But this one is so deserved . He is a master at his craft and knows and cares very much about the work he does and that shows To the person who complained about having to wait while he ordered his food on vacation in another country .... poor you !!! You had to wait a couple minutes ....... it would have been so much better if you were sent to an after hours answering service or a voicemail right ? Cause thats what most Docs will do. Im not sure what other option he could have provided to you for immidiate help other than hospital . He was out of the country, the fact he answered the call at all shows you exactly the kind of Dr he is . The kind that always puts his patients first.

I had an abscess tooth which was not a candidate for a root canal so it had to come out. Never having had a tooth out I was extremely stressed (an understatement) but I had the IV sedation which made this whole thing do-able for me. I also got a bone graft, and Dr. Gassman's work was exceptional. I had no pain even after the numbing wore off that evening and no swelling. Dr. Gassman has my full endorsement, and also my appreciation for doing such a fantastic job on something so important. I am editing this just to add that the people complaining about fees, I was charged exactly what I was quoted at the initial consultation. I imagine Dr. Gassman is not the cheapest option, but seriously, I do not want bargain dental surgery! You get what you pay for!

I have recently had wisdom teeth pain going on 3 weeks. I finally called my current dentist who referred me to Dr Schneidr's office. Although the waiting area seemed a bit dated/old, the service rendered was beyond great! Dr Schneider didn't talk to me much, which seemed odd for being a new patient, but the work was done quickly (under anesthesia no less) and the outcome was with little pain. I had heard horror stories about wisdom teeth extraction, but Dr Schneider and his team did great work and will be returning if needed for any future tooth issues.

The doctor and clinical team did a great job, and I have no complaints about the actual care I received. Unfortunately, my experience with the billing and communication afterward was extremely disappointing especially with the office manager SharaLee. I was given a written estimate a month before surgery and paid what I was told was my expected patient responsibility. After insurance processed the claim, I was surprised with an additional balance of $1,000 around a month after my procedure. When I spoke with Sharalee, the office manager, over the phone, I felt the conversation was dismissive and condescending rather than focused on helping resolve the issue. I left the conversation feeling blamed instead of heard. I was frustrated by how my concerns were handled, instead of feeling like my questions were being heard, I felt blamed for not knowing exactly how my insurance maximum would be affected, despite relying on the estimate provided by the office... The procedure itself was great, but the billing experience and communication left me very disappointed. Please do your research and consider your options before coming here. Edit: Front desk charged my card the $1,000 with ZERO confirmation of payment or receipt...

She went above and beyond to explain everything to me that she found on my x-rays, while she was cleaning and even after to ensure all of my questions were answered. She is super knowledgeable and very thorough. She complimented previous dental work, which was nice to hear as a patient because you never really know what it's supposed to be like after. Then Dr. Lachot came in and was the icing on the cake to my appointment. He is very friendly, kind and also reviewed everything with me in detail and answered all of my questions.

I previously had all of my upper teeth redone by Dr. Willman and invested a significant amount of…read moremoney in the process. She did outstanding work, and I truly appreciated her care. Dr Willman is no longer with the practice. Huge, enormous, gigantic loss for Pima Dental. About four months ago, I returned because I needed to molars extracted. Let me note that after the extractions I had fully intended beginning work on all my lower teeth, fully expecting to make another substantial investment. This practice is not inexpensive... in my view it is extremely overpriced (especially after I share what happened below). I was prepared to pay another substantial amount to complete my treatment. I did miss one appointment due to a personal emergency. I attempted to call but was unable to get through, and at the time my focus understandably had to be on the emergency. At my next scheduled appointment, I drove over 45 minutes from north Phoenix. I arrived and had X-rays done, and then met with a dentist who informed me that two teeth would need to be extracted by an oral surgeon and that the procedure could not be done there. While the dentist was courteous, the appointment ultimately resulted in a two-hour round trip simply to be referred elsewhere. I wish this had been communicated to me beforehand. As I was leaving, I was stunned when I was told not to leave and was informed that I owed a $50 missed-appointment fee. Mandy, the office manager, whom I had worked with before made it be known that I needed to pay $50. What disappointed me most was not the amount itself, but the complete lack of empathy or discretion--especially toward a long-standing patient who had already invested heavily in the practice and was prepared to invest significantly more. I understand that offices have cancellation policies. However, patient relationships should involve more than strict enforcement of fees. In my experience, this practice places profits above patient goodwill and patient satisfaction. Between the high costs of treatment and the rigid handling of this situation, it left me feeling that policies mattered more than people. As a business owner myself, I believe long-term trust, empathy, and relationships are what sustain a practice--not nickel-and-diming loyal patients. Unfortunately, this experience has led me to seek care elsewhere for the remainder of my treatment, and I will not be recommending this office moving forward ever again! I hope this feedback is taken constructively. My initial experience here was excellent, attributed primarily to Dr Willman, which makes this outcome all the more disappointing.

When I had questions after...even weeks or months later, they were highly responsive and patient. Unfortunately, I am not able to continue with the implant process with them. They only use titanium implants and I have a sensitivity to titanium (I strongly encourage biocompatibility testing prior to any device doing into your body). So, this is where I leave them. Crazy enough, they made my experience not so bad!
