I got talked into a consultation for crowns on my front 4 teeth - "to improve" my smile. Dr. M S played on an insecurity and I fell for it. Two days before the appointment I called to cancel. I had changed my mind. My gut was screaming at me to not do it. I told the office manager, Ms. M that I wanted to cancel my appointment. She said, "Sure, no problem. Can I have your name?" I gave her my name and she sucked in her breath dramatically and said, "Oh no, Michelle! You can't cancel. Dr. Marc has allotted 2-3 hours for you. There isn't enough time to get patients in to fill those slots. Why do you want to cancel?" I told her that I had changed my mind. That I didn't want to go through with the procedure. That I was extremely anxious and that my gut was telling me not to proceed. She said, "Why are you so anxious? Dr. Marc is one of the best. He does fantastic work and you'll be very happy with it when it's done." I started to cry. I told her I did not want to do it. She told me that I could not cancel the appointment. And against my better judgment I went to the appointment. That was the start of permanently ruining my teeth, my speech and my eating. My life has been turned upside down. The very first day when the numbing wore off I had searing pain in my teeth. I had extreme cold and heat sensitivity in my teeth. I was drooling and had a terrible lisp. I was told that it was because it was the temporary teeth and the permanent ones wouldn't cause a lisp and that the pain would go away with time. It did not. I called several times and had a few visits and many, many X-rays in the four month period after the first visit to get the crowns put on. Why? Because I was in so much horrible pain that I couldn't eat and I couldn't sleep. I was told that nothing was wrong. Well, I had abscesses! And my teeth had died because it had been left for so long. It took 4 months for them to find the infections and by then it took 4 rounds of antibiotics to bring the infections down. Which destroyed my stomach. I had pain up into my nasal cavities and cheek bones but I was told that there was nothing wrong with me for 4 months. I was then told that I needed root canals to fix the damage. Dr. M did the two root canals. And I still had terrible pain. I was told there was no reason for me to have pain and was being treated like it was all in my head. So, they finally decided to do a 3d panoramic X-ray. I had to see a specialist. I needed an endodontist and would likely need an apicoectomy. Surgery! I found an endodontist in my insurance network, since the one he referred me to and sent my X-rays to were not in my network. But they would not send my endodontist my X-rays. The X-rays were requested multiple times and were never sent. I had to go to their office and tell them that I wanted my X-rays for surgery. The endodontist said that there is significant bone loss due to how long the infections were let go in my mouth. Four months of ignored infections caused permanent bone loss. I had a new hydro-therapy procedure and the root canals redone. I was told that the root canals had not been done properly and the infection had not been properly cleaned out. I still had infection in my teeth 5 months on from getting the crowns. I have not had the apicoectomy. Yet. It is likely in my future because I still can not eat the way I used to. I can no longer tear or rip foods with my front teeth. I can no longer eat anything chewy or bite into things like crusty bread or bagels. And forget about ever biting into an apple again or eating corn on the cob. I still have pain in front teeth when there's any kind of pressure on them, ie - pushing with my tongue or my teeth coming together. It's been a year since the initial procedure and I still have pain. Oh, and I still have a slight lisp. Yep, at 53 years old I now have a lisp because of this dentist! I was also told that losing those teeth completely down the road is still a possibility. What a nightmare! Who wants to hear that they may lose their two front teeth! All of this has cost me thousands and thousands of dollars. When me and my family left this practice after what they did to me I could not get my dental records and X-rays sent to my new dentist. The office requested multiple times, and just like the endodontist, could not get them. I had to show up at the office and tell them that I wanted them sent right then and I waited in the office until they sent them over. If you value your teeth, your health, and your money then you should avoid this dentist office at all costs. My life has been permanently altered by this office and I will never eat or talk the same again.

Avoid Trailside Dental Care…read more After treatment at this office, I was left in severe pain and repeatedly asked to be evaluated by a dentist but was unable to speak with one. Instead, I was given guidance by staff while dealing with significant pain. I ultimately had to seek emergency care elsewhere, where the problem was properly resolved. In addition, I was told I needed 6-8 fillings and a crown. When I sought a second opinion, I was told that none of that work was necessary and that only one small area needed to be monitored. The difference between those two evaluations was alarming. Recommending large amounts of unnecessary dental work goes beyond poor judgment -- it's unethical. What makes this even more concerning is that the dentist at this office has been suspended by the Ohio State Dental Board and is currently practicing under probation for documented violations involving patient care. This is public information anyone can verify on the Ohio State Dental Board website. Please research carefully before choosing this office. Patients deserve to know this information when choosing a healthcare provider. This review is based on my personal experience and publicly available disciplinary records from the Ohio State Dental Board.

Thus, the entire area is kept clean and pristine. The waiting room has a giant aquarium which takes up about half of the wall. It's a salt water tank with many fishes that'll remind you of Finding Nemo! (His kids had a hand in picking these out). Also, there's plenty of refreshments available to you on arrival. My personal favorite is to monopolize the keurig machine and snag a mocha flavored k-cup. The receptionists here are warm and happy. Always energetic, they seem genuinely interested in engaging in conversation. The dental hygienists are equally as fun, making a dreaded visit to the dentist not so bad. The chairs and TV themselves are new and up-to-date. I could easily fall asleep in one of those things while staring at the tv directly above me. Quite pleasant. Dr. Tran is amazing. He's very approachable and amiable. He's always engaged in his patients and is getting life updates. Note: if you want to get him riled up, challenge him to a table tennis match!

I'm extremely disappointed with the billing practices at Afinia Dental - Mason. We have dental…read moreinsurance with 100 percent preventive coverage, and before each visit I confirmed with the front desk that our plan was active and in network. Despite that, I recently received two invoices--dated January 2026--for services performed in 2024 and 2025. These were the first and only notices I ever received. The statements show no insurance estimate, no insurance payment, and no prior balance, which strongly suggests the office either never submitted the claims or submitted them incorrectly. Preventive services should have been fully covered, and any failure to bill insurance or notify the patient for nearly two years is a provider issue, not a patient responsibility. When a dental office assures patients that insurance is in network, then sends surprise invoices years later with no explanation, it creates a serious trust and transparency problem. I hope they address the internal billing issues that led to this situation so other families don't experience the same frustration.

A doctor should never be a salesman, but an advocate. I had gone in for a cleaning and asked if they could round off a tooth that was poking me.... 20 minutes later, the doctor had used a putty to reshape all of my teeth to tell me how much better veneers would look on me. They also apparently had to fill all these cavities I supposedly had. My doctor was appalled at how deep they drilled for a routine cavity and now I may have to get a root canal as a result. Truly the worst type of people that only want your money and that's it. Never would recommend as a dentist. Unrelated, but when calling them just now to reschedule an appt for my boss, Google lists two different numbers and their website has a third number. Shocker, all if the numbers lead to the same time with a menu to choose from. All choices lead to someone named Tristan and it goes straight to her voicemail without ringing and once you get to the end and are waiting for the beep to leave a message, the phones hang up on you. Every single time. Literally every time I learn something new about this dental group it's always bad. Don't waste your time, money, or sanity.

The Dr. is thorough, knowledgeable, caring, and personable. I really like the location. It is set in Hyde Park/Oakley area and in a cute little office building.

I am always greeted when walking in and not left to wonder if I need to sign in or if I am going to be left waiting or anything. I have always been taken back in a timely manner and have never had to be there more than maybe 45 minutes in total for a routine visit. Dr. Ott is super nice and a great dentist. The hygienists are always thorough, painless, and thoughtful. They think about the whole picture of your oral/teeth health and take your insurance into account when deciding on testing. Overall, great place to go once or to become an established patient!
