Explained everything to my nine-year-old to the point where she understood and was not nervous at all took extra time with her she even got a popsicle at the end no bad experiences from this dentist at all which is a plus when it comes to a child.THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH!!!See you next time.

No parent should be comfortable using this dentist's office. My son went in to extract a baby tooth…read moreand the dentist on call said that he would make an appointment to seal my child's teeth and put him UNDER anesthesia in two weeks to extract the small tooth which is NOT attached to any root. He said he was going to gas my son and put him under, because pulling the baby tooth would be too traumatic for my son. He said this in front of my very sensitive son and my wife. I am a middle school teacher, with training in childhood trauma and I have worked with CPS and as a trauma team liason and this doctor had the audacity to imply that my wife and myself were trying to traumatize our child, in front of our child. Worse, to try and guilt us as parents into allowing A TRAUMATIC AND UNNECESSARY PROCEDURE ON OUR INNOCENT CHILD, so they could justify billing us more. I wonder how many childhood psychology degrees are on the walls in this office? The LAST thing you do is tell a child that they are traumatized if you are unqualified to do so. Certainly though, the staff lacks manners and common decency. If you want to scar your children and have your basic parenting questioned so that these people can use your child like a walking dollar sign, please, take your child here. IF, however, you care about the healthy and wholesome development of your child NEVER take your child here. They clearly do not care about you OR your kids.

After going to this dentist for about 13 -14 years I finally have hit something that I cannot stay…read morequiet about . We fell in love with dr Velez. He was amazing . So when the practice was sold it broke our hearts but we kept coming because the staff was great: however this past year things have shifted . The staff isn't warm and kind ... it's weird. My oldest has always had issues with his teeth . He has a heart condition that causes teeth issues and he has adhd . They started asking me to do 3 month cleanings which I paid for some out of pocket ... but when he was 17 I said no more . He needed to be responsible and clean them well . The office refused to see him if I didn't schedule and pay out of pocket for a 3 month cleaning they wouldn't see him for the 6 month . What? Then my daughters needed some fillings and sealants done . They called to confirm and I said my youngest would be there but I wasn't sure about my other daughter since she had to be admitted to a psychiatric hospital. To which they said well if she isn't there it will be a charge for not cancelling 72 hours in advance . Maybe you want to cancel . I did cancel but am floored that it's 2022 and we are pretending that mental health isn't important ? So if my daughter was admitted the day before her dentist appointment y'all would charge me a fee for not cancelling 72 hours in advance ?!?! I was appalled so I called back to talk to a manager . Which was pointless . She said yes that's our policy and she's just trying to relay the policy to you , I stated that mental health is unavoidable and that if my daughter is under psychiatric care it isn't my decision nor do I know when she will be released. But that suicide is serious and I can't believe that she would have her staff be so calloused and unkind about mental health issues . She basically told me I was being sensitive because of my situation and it's just an office policy , then said are you there. I said yes I am just really and she hung up the phone. This is disgusting . It is appalling . You are a pediatric dentist who cares more about keeping all appointments full. I understand policy but there is also humanity . Seriously DO BETTER

This is actually extremely difficult having to come to terms that I will no longer give my business…read moreto Al Burns at Alligator Dental and now I have to find a great pediatric dentist that actually cares about their patients and treats their clients with respect. The ladies at the front desk are absolutely amazing and patient so I have nothing negative towards them. We did have decent experiences in the past but this last dental visit could not have gone worse. They had my daughter X-ray both visits within 2 weeks without my permission but don't try to tell them anything about it because you'll be labeled combative. They don't warn you about the dangers of over exposure to radiation. The doctors will add anything they can onto your invoice to make more money. The worst part of this entire situation is that the owner/head dentist Dr. Burns spoke so down/degrading to me when I had questions about my daughter's procedure. Let's just say I know for a fact he would have never spoken down the same way he spoke to me if it were my daughter's father or another male. I was told I'd be reimbursed for the multiple x-rays and other things that were added on unnecessarily. Al Burns may not be used to parents or a strong educated female actually advocating for their child or getting called out for unnecessary charges and unsafe practices but he sure knows how to speak absolutely degrading to women. I was quoted before anything took place and somehow our bill turned out a LOT higher than what was originally quoted just for a capped tooth! Be careful on what all you're invoiced for because Alligator Dental tries to sneak in whatever they can to make more money. Greed! You should also be educated about the dangers of repeated X-ray exposure and be asked for consent before anything is done to your child! No apology was ever given and I have still not been credited for the things I was told I'd be credited for. Again, billing lady rocks and was nothing but respectful!

Everyone there is relaxed, polite, pleasant and will help the patient with any anxiety, etc. We recommend them without any reservations. My husband and I can't continue with Dual Arc Dental because they no longer submit the full bill to the insurance company and after that amount is paid the patient pays the balance. Sometimes we cannot afford to pay up front so we located another practice recommended by a friend which will submit the bill to our insurance and allow us to pay the balance. We understand that Dual Arc made a business decision and we wish them the best. Try them and you will be impressed with the high level of dental help.

Military families! Stay away from this dental clinic and they are NOT in the network of Tricare…read moreDental Program! They literally scammed me!!! I called in to schedule an appointment in the mid-May, and I told them very clearly I have Tricare dental and asked them if they accept Tricare. They said yes they do accept Tricare and then set up my appointment on June 22. I showed up and checked in, then the front desk asked me to pay $100 copay, I told them Tricare covers 100% on the annual exam and x-ray and cleaning twice a year. Then they told me oh we are NOT in the Tricare network and you need to pay a copay $100! WHAT!!! WHY DID NOT TELL ME ON THE PHONE WHEN I CALLED THE FIRST TIME???!!!! I said then I do not want to proceed with the appointment and about to walk out, the manager saw that I was about to leave, she said oh I can just bill your insurance and waive the copay, since you are already here, I do not want to turn you away. We will just do the x-ray and you can take the images to another dental which is in the network. I accepted and proceeded with the x-ray. I was SO WRONG!! I really really should have left! Later of the day I found another dentist on Tricare Dental Program website and called them and told them what happened earlier today. I was told that: 1) they would need to do their own full mouth X-ray and not accepting what other dentist has done due to liability 2) Tricare only covers full mouth x-ray once every year, I would need to pay out of pocket for the second one. This place wants to make money so bad that they totally abused my insurance coverage! They knew clearly I had Tricare and they could not do any cleaning or needed treatment for me! Even they waived the $100 copay but they submitted $$$ claim to my insurance! Yeah, they got paid from insurance! Now I have to pay for another X-ray out of pocket! STAY AWAY FROM THIS SCAMMING PLACE!!!

So this young lady comes bouncing in the room and informs me I bad to pay $1,000 before they move forward. That is some that I should have been told in January not the day of. Fortunately I did have cash with me, but that is a lot of money and I did not have an opportunity to save it up. I really like my dentist because she is very good and concerned about patient comfort and information, but not sure I will go back because of the distance. I will see if a dental office can provide the hardware that I may need replaced in the future at a reasonable cost. Because they seemed to think it was funny that I told them it was terrible to spring something like this on the day with no prior notice. How funny is it that you have now lost referrals and possible a patient?
