I live in South Carolina. My wife and I were in the middle of a two week vacation in Destin when a…read moreveneer broke on my front tooth. After calling multiple dentist offices, I called Bright Smiles and spoke to Amanda, their patient coordinator. She was so nice and helpful and worked me in for an appointment with the dentist that day! Once I arrived, the dental assistant, Nicole, did a great job taking x-rays and prepping me for the dentist. Then Dr Megan Salzlein came in and explained the best solution to repair my broken veneer. When she was done, it looked and felt great! Dr Salzlein is a very sweet person who really cares for her patients. What a blessing it was to find Bright Smiles! I wish the entire staff would relocate to South Carolina (but I understand why they live in Destin). They let me know I could call on them again anytime we are in this area. i highly recommend the awesome team at Bright Smiles! Jerry Green

If they don't cancel the appointment you made six months in advance to fit their schedule, they make you wait 30 minutes or more in their lobby when they could have called you to let you know they were running late. My husband and I moved heaven and earth to accommodate when their hygienist was sick. What was our thanks? Sat in the waiting room for 40 minutes once we arrived (we arrived 10 mins early so 30 minutes. I have never had them call me on time when I arrive promptly for an appointment so here's a tip : if you have to use them like I do just arrive 13 minutes late for every single appointment (their policy is to cancel if you are 15 minutes or more late. That way he will eat into their normal 30 minute wait time and only have to wait about 15 minutes once you arrive. Also make sure that you call before you leave to confirm your appointment and hang onto your appointment cards. I had an appointment card that listed the date and time and when I checked in, I was told that I must have gotten the date or time wrong (blame the customer). When I showed them the card, they just said " I'm sorry we can accommodate you today and we'll try to squeeze you in for an appointment in the next couple of weeks." Bottom line: stay away if you have a choice or until they replace the incompetent front. Great Dentists, generally bad front office staff which is sure to challenge your blood pressure.
