One star for politeness. Everyone here is very polite.
The second star is because they ARE actually a business, with employees and degrees and such.
Aside from that, there is very little to like here. I came here to get a partial. This means molds of my teeth and x-rays. No problem, I know the deal. They spent almost an hour taking x-rays from every angle, and (as I found out later from an oral surgeon) they STILL missed a few teeth. Frustrating.
Next up, I finally got the partial. Wonderful. I went in for the fitting. It VERY CLEARLY didn't fit. I expressed as much to Dr Van Heest. I told her there was a sizable gap between the partial and the roof of my mouth, and that it was too wide, was pushing on my teeth and was causing me pain. To her credit, she attempted to modify the piece, but when that made little difference she made it clear she had other business to attend to. I was told that it would be fine, and shown the door.
FINALLY, I went in for some fillings, specifically to have a cracked front tooth fixed. What happened instead, was that they drilled into two teeth on the side of my mouth, that were giving me no problems. When I asked why they were going to work on those and not the clearly damaged tooth, I was met with an impatient huff. She dropped her instrument and told the dental hygienist that I then wanted THREE teeth done, instead of the original two. From that point, nothing I said made much difference. I just wanted to leave.
They ended up drilling and putting in three fillings. The third? Next to the first two. In the back.
My front tooth is still chipped.
