The horrors inflicted on far too many people in the dark years of denistry's past has left many older adults with intense fear of dentists. I know I'm one of them. My teeth have suffered from my terror of dentists. Yesterday I summoned my courage to visit Dr. Amy Ruf at The Dentists at Ralston Square. Dr.Ruf has a true heart for her patients and does everything in her power to make people feel safe and comfortable with her. She is first dentist that I have felt I just might learn to trust in time. If you have avoided the dentist out of fear, I hear you. If you can summon the courage, go see Dr. Amy at Ralston Square. She will take good care of you.

I had gone in for a procedure that probably would be easy for most people. Unfortunately with heart problems, they will not allow me anything with epinephrine in it. Any dentist that I have ever been seen by never has had anything else other than meds I cannot have. The dentist eased all my anxiety, carefully listening to my history and letting me know, she knew what I needed and how to do it safely. OMG what a relief, I have gone 10 years always being told you need to be in a hospital setting. Its too risky for me to see you as a patient. I burst into tears honestly. I thought that would be my "forever situation." Fortunately, they helped me through the proceedure. Offering me something I could take pre-procedure to numb the area without inhibiting my breathing or raising my heart rate. I soooo very much appreciate them. Words cannot even express my gratitude for the dentist. They truly care about helping their patients.

My husband retired from the military after 30 years of service and we moved back to Omaha to be…read morecloser to our family. We chose Total Dental because our insurance took it and it was close to our house without looking at the reviews. I went there for my first 2 regular cleanings. I go regularly every 6 months. They told my husband he should go every 3 months (he went even though he had to pay out of pocket for one of the cleanings every year). I had extreme pain in my front tooth because of a possible injury when I was younger. I saw Dr. Thorson, who is absolutely wonderful!! She saw me right away and referred me to an Endodontics practice. The practice that accepted my insurance couldn't get me in for over a month. Dr. Thorson stated to me in front of the dental hygienist that "if I ran out of antibiotics before I got into to see the Midwest Endodontics that all I needed to do is call her up and she would prescribe some more to get me through until I could see them for the root canal." Unfortunately, she went on maternity leave (which I totally understand) BUT the office manager (Danica Wicht) had no back up plan for her. When, I called some dental hygienist that I had absolutely no prior dental relationship with called me and stated to me "that they don't do that". She also kept saying "she wasn't in the room with me" I told her I knew that she wasn't in the room with me. I kindly asked her if she had my chart to look at and she said no. I was very shocked that a medical professional that hadn't been in the room with me (her own words) wouldn't have the chart to rely on. She never asked me my pain level either. Not one time during our phone conversation. Very disturbing as when you look at Total Dental's website they describe themselves as dental anxiety experts with over 40 years of experience. I asked to speak to an office manager and Dr. Courtney Molettiere got on. This woman needs to never me in medicine or dental care. Her bio reads "One of my favorite things about my profession is the chance to build relationships with patients" She is not an experienced Dentists. Read her bio and prior reviews about her. Highly do NOT recommend her. Very immature and never even read my chart before talking to me. You can see from other reviews, that other patients have said that EXACT same thing that I'm saying about Dr. Molettietiere. She was rude, unprofessional, never looked at my chart. Also found out later from the Practice Manager, that she shared information with 3 other people in her office (that was not necessary) and a complete violation of HIPPA. My medical information should only be shared on a need-to-know basis. They should realize that. In addition, I paid out of pocket for X-rays and was not even notified of the costs upfront. This practice has very inexperienced Dentists. I've gone to Dentists across the country my entire life AND never experienced the unprofessionalism of this office including the practice manager who called me from her cell phone in car and didn't even have my chart or information to know what she was referring to. The only thing she could say is she knew everyone in the "Office for 10 years" This should be handled using actual facts like a business NOT a like a friendship. In short, you have TONS of options in Elkhorn. I found another Dental practice within a few hours for my husband and me that honored both our military service and was kind and friendly, verified my insured, gave me upfront costs. Read their website of what they promise and then read the many reviews of patients that have actually visited this horrible dental clinic specifically the Elkhorn, Nebraska clinic. Highly DO NOT recommend this horrible practice!

He is absolutely amazing!!!!!  His knowledge, current technology and most of all his compassion for his patients is something that I can't even find words to describe.  I have had a lot of dental work done so I know the good from the bad I have 100% trust in Dr Shnayder and his amazing staff.   The office is absolutely gorgeous!!! The location is easy to find and easy to access. The front desk gals are so down to earth and make you feel at ease the minute you walk in the door. I can not say enough about Amy the surgical assistant.  She takes you back to the procedure room and makes you completely forget that you are there for surgery. The most recent addition that I have dealt with is Dr Nord.  I had a procedure last week and had a few questions over the weekend.  She immediately answered my call, answered my questions and put my mind at ease. Village Point Oral Surgery is the top rated Oral Surgeon for a reason!!

Ugh, Yelp is not my favorite place to look at reviews of banks, insurances, and medical offices…read morebecause the people who come on here are always like the review below. Then, in case someone actually uses this review, I feel like it's only fair to share my experience. I read the review below and still want to know what "Karen" felt was incompetent other than her opinions that her dentist shouldn't go on vacation and assuming that sharing a bottle of wine makes one hung over. All I read was that Karen sound like a really enjoyable person to be around (insert sarcasm). Although, if Karen speaks to your inner self, this office certainly isn't for you. Dr Reed and her staff are a breath of fresh air and you can go in and talk like a normal person. No annoying, higher pitched fake professional talk. In the two years of living here, I've had conversations about our kids, family, hawaiian/asian heritage, her knitting conferences, and (gasp Karen!) expensive Rothy's shoes. My husband had a gnarly mouth bc he's scared of the dentist and they've worked with him on schedule to get his cleanings regular. My daughter (now 2) had her first dentist visit and loved it. Thanks to Dr. Reed and staff, my daughter won't end up terrified of a dry scary dentist like my husband is. Now let's move on to me. I don't have anything crazy going on with teeth as I took care of them, however I had been for the past decade considering putting caps on my teeth for aesthetic reasons. Dr. Reed is the 3rd dentist in 3 states I've lived in that I've asked about. She is the only one that discouraged me to do it due to my teeth being in great condition, but said that if I wanted to proceed I should meet with a ortho to make sure that my bite wouldn't be compromised by my teeth. Sure enough, I got a second opinion by another dentist and they said that was the best advice and if I would've listened to the two others that were willing to do it and collect the money, I would've had bite issues. In conclusion to this embarrassingly long review, Dr. Reed's office is a gem and the care has been great.

I told them this business practice was unbecoming, unethical, and very misleading.

When I checked out I was told that my insurance would not cover any of the services I received or a new partial plate that had to be made and I had to pay $4000 up front!! The financial representative was quite rude and pushy. I told her that I would pay for services received that day and the rest when I received them but she said they needed the $ up front to pay the lab. I find it hard to believe that the practice had no operating expenses! I paid the $4000. Two months later, after contacting my insurance carrier, I found that the claim was filed incorrectly and some of the services I received were covered and I had been overcharged. I made several attempts to contact the financial representative at the office and she would not return my calls. When I finally reached her she told me that refund was being held for some insurance policy that I signed for on the new partial. That was the first time I was told that such agreement existed! After three months and my insurance payment made to the practice, I finally got the refund. When I picked up the check I requested paperwork on the work completed as well as my treatment plan. Needless to say, I will not be going back to this dental office due to the rudeness and inefficiency of this person on their their staff!
