Now my jaw is dislocated and infected and a fear I will never be able to speak the same or look the same ever again! This supposed dentist office destroyed my life and I promise you they will destroy yours please stay away! Especially your State insurance patients. Please don't get excited that they accept state health insurance. He lays his patients out like they're objects on an assembly line. He doesn't care about the pain or damage he causes he only cares about collecting that state money this place needs to be shut down immediately!

I will be the first to complain about this office. Had original work done here. Office didn't give…read moreme whole story and only did 1/2 the job of pulling teeth and putting in implants. Plus Dr Lee lied and said he have me anesthesia when he kept injecting me with Novocain. Anyway when I got to Fl they said I used up all the $8000. In RI and to make the false upper teeth and implant dentures There was another $4000. That was in 2019. Fl did a beautiful job and I was pleased. Today August 23 2022 1:00 as I was eating fried shrimp and tater tots for lunch I noticed something lumpy in my mouth. It was one of the teeth, 2 nd from the front. Now the denture is razor like. I called a repair place in Pawtucket and they said drop it off and pick it up tomorrow. So I called Aspen and she said come in at 4:00. Got there, signed in,barley sat and was called to sit in the operating chair. She took the denture and tooth. Came back 10 minutes later with it all fixed said it was still in warranty till 2027 and sent me on my way. Had to update my accounting for this place. I still think their original people that make you sign you first child away for dental work is off the wall and I would never have a tooth pulled from this horror house, but cleaning and their lab is superior to none.

It's been awhile but I'll never forget how I was treated by this dentist he's part owner they know…read morewho he is wow !!! Smh they showed no care at all they took my money never explained procedure's to me the dentist was there just to do a job he didn't care and no bedside manner's the only time he talked to me is when he wanted more money out of me I remember asking him (Dentist) If he could check a tooth for me that was bothering me he waved it off with his hand not now and walked away I've paid money out of pocket to get treated this way and it was a lot of money it's gets worse but I'll leave this experience out of the public's eyes with this dentist but I will say believe the one stars it's true what people are saying unfortunately I had to find out the hard way and I lost money in the process I regret I made this big mistake in my life for a dental office that cared nothing about me but only wanted my money my doctor warned me not to go there I should have listened.Smh

Full discloser here: I'm a doctor and I have no affiliation to the University group or Dr Brown…read more With that said, my mother ended up at Rhode Island Hospital's Emergency Department a few weeks ago for an abscess near one of her teeth. They felt an oral surgeon would be the best benefit for her and Dr Brown was consulted and was in-house that day. My mother is on Chemo and one of the side effects is possible bone involvement around the jaw and Dr Brown as well as all of us was acutely aware of this and admitted my mother and scheduled her for surgery the next morning. Everything went well, and my mother is recovering well and back to her normal self. Dr Brown personality is incredible. He's exactly the type of surgeon you'd want treating your mother. Nice, talkative, knowledgeable and cares for not only his craft but his patients. I wouldn't hesitate considering University Oral and Max again or Dr Brown. You're in great hands here!

She told me her name and then the first nurse told me I would be okay. I felt a little pain as it was making its way out but it wasn't too bad.

The office staff are appallingly unprofessional. I scheduled an emergent procedure and during the…read moreconsult was horrified by the egregiously rude behavior by the office staff. The day of the procedure, I was greeted with such ignorant and despicable behavior at reception that I left the office prior to the procedure! When a patient seeks treatment from an oral surgeon, the experience can be made easier with respectful and professional behavior by the staff. The receptionist and ancillary staff here seem to have forgotten that patients are providing them with business that in turn provides them with an income. Instead, they seem to take pride in treating patients without courtesy or deference.

Would highly recommend! I called on Thursday and the next Tuesday I was in.

From the consultation to the actual procedure, the doctor and nurses clearly explained what to…read moreexpect for my 18 year old son's wisdom teeth removal. They were thorough and took x-rays ahead of time, clearly explained the images to us, and educated us about how his roots were not very long, but that if we waited, they could potentially grow longer, and the teeth would be harder to extract. On the day of the procedure, they gave my son anesthesia before numbing his gums with Novacaine which made the procedure nearly painless. They completed the procedure in about a half hour at the most. They kept my son sitting upright in a chair in the recovery room for another half hour before the anesthesia finally wore off and he was able to walk out of there. They made sure that they supplied us with gauze pads, a syringe, clear discharge instructions, etc. Pro tip: check your insurance plan to see how much you have left of your deductible before scheduling your appointment. My son had a few fillings earlier in the year which used up a good portion of his deductible. If you schedule your dental procedures in different calendar years, you will pay less.

During the first appointment for my wisdom teeth dr. Mo Banki was dismissive to my concerns and…read morejust seemed like he was trying to be "hip" or "cool". I told him I didn't want any hard drugs because I was concerned about addiction and he said "well don't pick them up". This is why people form addictions. I needed a medication for another medical problem I have which this surgery would effect. I told them a total of 3 times, at first appointment, before they attempted to sedate me and before I left. I advocated for myself and was ignored. Surgery day came and he came into the office, put an Iv in my arm with NO GLOVES.He was moving so fast between patients I didn't even see if he washed his hands. They attempted to sedate me and gave up. After making me wait 1 hr past my appointment time they said we had to reschedule because it was past my appointment slot since I didn't get to sleep. The amazing, caring, kind, compassionate Anesthesiologist has nothing to do with this. He's the only one that talked to me when I was clearly scared, stayed with me, and explained things to me. After they failed to sedate me, the dr. said he can do it with local anesthesia. He gave me shots on both sides of my mouth. He immedietly went to pull my tooth and I felt sharp intense pain. I told him to stop and was crying. He got mad at me because he said "look at how much I already gave you I can't just keep giving you novocaine. " He went to another patient and pulled the teeth there and returned. He gave me more on my right side and it ended up working fine. He immedietly went to pull my left side and I flinched in pain and was bawling my eyes out at this point. THE LEFT SIDE WASNT NUMB. he used half as much on my left side and didn't even attempt to stop when I was in excruciating pain. Finally both teeth were pulled it was done. He left the room and said I didn't need to be in the recovery room. The anastasiologist stayed by my side. and I asked if I could go home since dr. didn't say anything. we went to front desk to get checked out and found out that nobody gave me after care instructions, new gauze for my mouth, gauze to take home, etc. Overall he is dismissive, terrible bedside manner, rude, and going to be responsible for people's addictions. I'm traumatized by this experience and never experienced something so terribly medically. I hope you do not use these people for surgery.

Finally, Monday came and the receptionist Isabella was able to squeeze me in that same day. Dr. Skoly and his staff were so attentive, polite and extremely helpful. I am eternally grateful for Dr. Skoly and his staff. It's been 1 day since they removed my wisdom tooth and I feel a BIG difference. I'm now able to talk, eat, basically open my mouth without it causing me pain. I will be recommending everyone I know to this practice. -My health insurance didn't cover this so I paid $325 out of pocket -I needed a referral to see Dr. Skoly so I was quickly able to obtain that from my dentist and the receptionist Isabella at Dr Skoly's office was able to squeeze me in a couple hours after I got the referral.

He has 3 chairs, though one is usually reserved for procedures he does himself. He is very calm and very softspoken, but as I've gotten older I have been able to experience some of his very funny, very dry humor. He remembers my father and asks about him all the time, and even remembers where I work and if I've been on the road. Kathy and Linda are his 2 hygienists that have been there the whole while, and I do not trust anyone to clean my teeth besides them. I've never been picked at, poked, made bleed by either of them. I think the biggest testament to Dr. Tilelli is that he doesn't push for unnecessary procedures or referrals to orthodontists. I have had 1 tooth pulled to avoid messing up my adult teeth when it wouldn't fall out, my sister had 1 cavity that he decided not to fill because she was going to lose that tooth anytime. My sister and I both have slightly crooked teeth, and he never once suggested we get braces, he said it would do more harm moving everything else to fix the 1-2 teeth that were out of line. Another favorite quote from him is that my sister and I have better and far cheaper teeth than his kids. If you have a child that is scared or may be a trouble maker, they specifically do early morning and weekend appointments, as to not frighten other children, and they will suggest not bringing any younger siblings they might frighten. I've also been told they are one of the only pediatric dentists that accept the state of ri insurance by several coworkers taht were on assistance/single moms
