I found this dental clinic through my dental insurance website and decided to come here earlier…read morethis week because it's very close to my workplace. I mainly came in as a new patient for a routine cleaning and checkup. It was 8 am on a weekday, and there were already quite a lot patients waiting. Fortunately, I didn't have to wait too long before being taken to the exam room. First, Kylie and Katlyn took my X-rays and 3D anatomy scan. They were both skilled and made the process comfortable. I did have some trouble with my gag reflex during certain angles of the X-rays, but overall I was satisfied with the experience. Next, Megan was my dental hygienist. She provided great education about gingivitis and examined and cleaned my teeth with care. However, the cleaning itself wasn't the most thorough I've ever had. It felt like more time and effort was spent scraping the surfaces of my teeth and less time cleaning the areas between my gums and teeth. She did follow up with thorough flossing and rinsing. For comparison, the most thorough cleaning I've had in the past involved spending a decent amount of time on both areas (gums and teeth). After the cleaning, Megan offered me an oral cancer screening and fluoride treatment. I was under the impression that both would be covered by my dental insurance, but I ended up having to pay $63 out of pocket for the 2 services at checkout. I was surprised by this and wish I had been informed about the cost before receiving these services. Lastly, my dentist Dr. Kiesel came in to examine my teeth and apply the fluoride treatment. He gave me the same recommendation regarding my wisdom teeth as my previous dentists, but also provided some additional insights that I found very helpful. Overall, I had a great experience from start to finish, including the scheduling process. I originally had an appointment scheduled 2 months out, but they kindly rescheduled me to the last available appointment this month after I made a last-minute request as a new patient. I really appreciated their flexibility and accommodation. One of the biggest advantages of this clinic is its technology. They seem to have some of the most advanced dental technology I've ever experienced, including the oral cancer diagnostic equipment. It made the visit feel very modern and professional. My appointment took a total of 1 hour and a half. Reasonable because I'm a new patient and needed imagings done. I've already scheduled my next follow-up appointment for next year and look forward to returning.

Dr. Ingram and his dental assistants are warm, friendly and knowledgeable! He will tell you…read moreexactly what you do and do not need. The front desk staff needs work, though, hence only three stars overall. Personality wise, it's always a lukewarm, if not a cool reception when you first walk in. There is absolutely nothing worse than standing right in front of the receptionist only to be greeted by nothing but silence. I know you know I am there, I am standing inches of front of you! The office isn't that big! You feel like such an inconvenience to them, like "How dare you interrupt my web-surfing!!" Look, I am no diva and I don't expect a red carpet roll-out upon my arrival. What any business owes it's customers is very basic manners. A simple, courteous, "Hello, I will be right with you" goes a long way! It's too bad that the front office staff doesn't reperesent Dr. Ingram very well. I will continue to go there since ultimately its the dentist and his work that matters. I've been in several times, so I thought I would wait until writing a review thinking maybe they were having an "off" day and maybe it would change. I don't know if the front office is unhappy or if they're just emotionless worker bees. The energy they convey dings them a few stars, though.

I came here as a new client back in November. The facilities are very nice and modern, and the…read morehygienists was very kind. She told me I had done a good job brushing my teeth and didn't notice anything out of the ordinary. So imagine my surprise when the dentist told me I had EIGHT cavities!! They wanted to charge me almost $1000. The dentist offered to fill some of my cavities right then and there- which now that I think about it was a tricky way to get me to commit to spending money and not have a chance to think about it. I got a second opinion and found out that I did have two cavities. I also had a problem with them overcharging me $150, which luckily my insurance caught. I always loved going to the dentist until I went to Richmond Family Dentist. As one person I talked to said, only go here if you have amazing dental insurance and don't mind the up sale. Richmond Family Dentistry is not a local dentist- the dentists that work there are the same ones that work at Aspen Dental over by Starbucks.

They knowingly overbook appointments and expect you to arrive on time and wait an hour or more…read morebecause they are "short staffed." I had an 8:30 am appointment made specially to be able to get back to work at a reasonable time. I arrived at 8:15 with all my new patient paperwork filled out, to find six people sitting in the waiting room. They only open at 8:00! I allowed the acceptable 15 minutes then at 8:45 i told them I need to know what time I will be seen. The receptionist had a hurried discussion with a higher up who advised "another 20 minutes OR SO" then started the lame short staffing excuse. So why do you make appointments then? She had no answer. I walked out. Did a little research and found another dentist I'll be seeing in 2 weeks. I chose Aspen because it was a bigger practice who made a point of the 'time reserved especially for you' BS. I was wrong. Giving two stars instead of one since I didn't experience treatment or billing.

Awful, Awful, Awful Dentist Office! these people have NO IDEA what they are doing…read more 1) They shined a light in my mouth screening for oral cancer -- it took 2 minutes. At the end they tried to charge me $50 out of pocket!!! THEY NEVER ASKED MY PERMISSION TO DO THE SCREENING. So, I refused to pay it. 2) I had a crown ordered and I showed up for my appointment to have it put in. THERE WAS NO APPOINTMENT on the books for me EVER. They had to fit me in since I drove there but I had to wait for an hour to be seen. 3) I showed up for another appointment and they had me scheduled for the same day the NEXT week. I put it into my cell phone when the appointment was made...so either they told me the wrong date or they put it in their computer wrong. 4) THIS IS THE BIG ONE. They will DO THINGS that will void YOUR INSURANCE! Insurance has guidelines that has to be followed in order to be accepted. Smiles for Life is so INCOMPETENT that they will schedule things and do things in such a way that your insurance will DENY the procedure and you will be stuck with the WHOLE COSTS OUT OF YOUR POCKET. Bottom Line --- AVOID THIS PLACE!!!
