Having been through this basic procedure before there were few unknowns post op which is a real help. If I think of something that would be beneficial to a client I will past it along. These procedures are not a "walk in the park" by any stretch of your imagination. Having said that, the two weeks to get your mouth back on line is just that; two weeks. Not very long when you know the results are with you for a very long time and the consequences of not having this done are dire at best. If you are are need of this type of surgery, I would highly recommend a consultation with Shoreline and their staff. You will find the staff and the facilities to be top notch in all regards. To strengthen this opinion I will be making another appointment in the near future.

I am a patient of Shoreline Periodontics in Middletown CT…read more It's been 2 months since my appointment and I am due funds back from Shoreline for over payment. The check was not received in 60 days now but promised in 3 weeks. No one seems to know what is going on at your branch in Middletown regarding this. They say the check is in the mail but months pass and no refund was ever received. They don't return calls over there either. Can you speak to someone in your Middletown staff to facilitate this. This is the most unprofessional behavior I have ever experienced from any dental company. Please resolve this asap, TY. Just ask them to send the check out for the $450.00 you guys owe me or find out why they are dragging their feet here. They will know who it is. Sorry for the bad review, but you guys earned it.

Be aware that the office ladies, while very friendly initially, were not up front with me and may…read morenot be forthright with you about whether or not Columbia Dental is in Network with your insurance. Office lady #1, C, said "Your insurance went through! Here's your estimate for services we'll do today," and quoted me $655 out of pocket for a root canal and over $2K out of pocket for the crown. "...That's way higher than I expected," I said. "Yeah, dental insurance is awful," said C. "It will be like this everywhere you go." Shocked and dismayed, I called my insurance to confirm that those numbers were accurate. "Those guys aren't in network with us," the United Concordia rep told me. "That's the reason those numbers are so high." "WHAT!?" I said. The second of the Columbia Dental office ladies, T, came out to get an update on my decision (whether to pay out of pocket or get financing), and I said "You guys didn't tell me that you weren't in Network with United Concordia." "NO ONE is in network with them," she answered. "The UC rep just emailed me a list of providers who are," I replied. "Call them. Call them. I bet you they aren't," she challenged. I called them and immediately found two providers who were indeed in network with United Concordia. I went up to the desk and reported my findings. "Well, then, you're lucky," said T. "I feel that it's dishonest for you guys to not tell patients that you're out of network with their insurance," I said. "You said you accepted mine." "We ACCEPT yours," said C. "But we aren't in network with them." "Then you should have told me that," I said. Hours of my day were shifted around for this, my husband lost time at work to be home with our kids, and a great deal of emotional difficulty was experienced when seeing those numbers and being told that anywhere I go would the same story. Not cool at all, Columbia Dental.

I accompanied my daughter to her final crown appointment with Dr. Aurora Dibner. What should have…read morebeen a positive and exciting milestone instead turned into a deeply upsetting and disheartening experience -- both for her and for me as a parent. My daughter arrived genuinely hopeful and prepared to complete the process. She was eager to be involved in decisions that directly impact her smile, appearance, and long-term confidence. Unfortunately, from the moment Dr. Dibner entered the room, her demeanor was noticeably cold and unwelcoming. When my daughter began asking thoughtful questions and attempted to participate in selecting the shade for her crown -- a perfectly reasonable expectation for something so personal -- she was quickly dismissed. In fact, rather than acknowledging or considering my daughter's input, Dr. Dibner directed her attention to her assistant, asking her what shade she thought matched best. It was disheartening to see the opinion of an assistant prioritized over the patient's -- especially when it is my daughter who will live with the result of this permanent dental work. Her opinion should have been central to the conversation. Worse still, Dr. Dibner responded to my daughter's attempts to advocate for herself with dismissive and condescending remarks. Instead of encouraging my daughter's involvement, Dr. Dibner repeatedly told us -- on more than one occasion -- that we might want to consider going to another dentist. She referenced how good the doctors are in New York City and emphasized that she prefers to do things her way. The message was clear: if the patient wants to have a say, this may not be the place for them. This attitude was not only unprofessional, but completely contrary to the principles of patient-centered care. The situation escalated to the point where my daughter was left in tears -- humiliated and deeply hurt in what should have been a safe, supportive, and respectful environment. As a parent, it was painful to witness and completely unacceptable in a healthcare setting. To be candid, the tone, attitude, and overall treatment we received gave the clear impression that we were not being afforded the same respect or consideration as other patients. While I cannot say with certainty what the basis for that disparity was, it felt discriminatory in nature. No one should feel marginalized, dismissed, or unwelcome when seeking medical care -- especially a young woman trying to engage in her own health and well-being. This experience has left a lasting negative impact on my daughter. We came in expecting empathy, professionalism, and basic human decency. Unfortunately, what we encountered was the opposite. I do not typically submit complaints or write reviews, which should reflect how shocked and disappointed we were by the conduct we experienced. I hope this feedback is taken seriously so that no other patient has to go through what we did.

I've been a patient at Bridgeworks Dental for many many years. I've recommend them to multiple…read morefamily members and always found the group to be pleasant. Recently however, I had a very negative experience that has made me switch to another dental group. I never had any issues with paying any dental bills and in fact at times had credits on my account as me or my husband, (who was also a patient until last week), had paid a balance as directed by the front office only to have our duel insurances cover more than expected Resulting in an account credit. Last week I went in for the last part of a root canal which was just to get the permanent crown affixed. I had paid half of my balance previously and owed $208.00 at the visit in Dec 31st. My appointment was at 8:30 in the morning for which I was on time. I was greeted by the assistant and ready to go back when the girls behind the desk pointed to the computer and read something and then told me I needed to pay before I saw the dentist. Id never been requested to do this and I asked why I would pay prior to services being performed? An office worker assured me that this was the new office procedure going forward. I'd brought my debit card with me and tried to process the payment. It was declined as my bank had put a temporary hold on my account due to "suspicious activity" Over the holiday which was unknown to me but common for the bank to do to protect customers accounts against fraud. I tried multiple phone numbers for the bank and the number on the back of my card to request that they remove the block however, nobody was available until the bank opened at 9:00 a.m. in the meantime, one of the office workers said she would check with the dentist to see if he would see me in the meantime until I got my card squared away. She came back from checking and relayed that I couldn't go back until I paid first. This was very disheartening as I never had any issues paying for any services. I sat in the waiting room for a half hour until my bank opened and then left to go to the bank, got cash and brought it back to the office and paid. I was then seen by the dentist for the ten minute appointment. I found it odd that when I was told it was a new policy of the practice, as I was waiting to be seen, two patients came out and were charged AFTER their appointments. I mentioned this to the office worker (who has been there a while) and she said, "if it's for a cleaning or something like that we charge after but for a crown we charge up front". The whole situation was unpleasant and unprofessional. I fully understand that dentists need to get paid as any business does but this was unwarranted and unnecessary. To be treated in this manner was very unexpected and disheartening.

When I was crying and gripping the chair, this sadist had the nerve to say "You're the one who wanted the extraction, not me." I stopped going to him after that. My last dentist retired and I went to a practice that is new (Columbia Dental) to me and he was filling in there once a week. When I saw it was him I was so terrified but I was in pain and needed it taken care of. Another dentist from the same practice had told me a tooth needed to come out and couldn't be saved without root canal, which I can't afford. Hanna said no problem, he can fill it. 4 months later, I am in agonizing pain and it has to come out. He violates his oath and just goes after money. Buyer beware.
