I needed a tooth extraction and Dr Wainwright was able to see me quickly and remove it the same day. I don't have dental insurance but the price was reasonable. More importantly, his friendly and calm demeanor helped me relax for the procedure. read more

So reading other reviews I'm starting to notice a trend where he charges people for the exam and then he tells them that he's not capable of providing the dental services that are necessary. This is exactly what happened to me. I paid the $70 and then he told me I had to get an oral surgeon in order to extracted tooth. That literally makes no sense and also I was able to see a regular dentist that was able to extract the tooth with no issue. I asked him why exactly he was not capable of pulling the tooth and he started to get verbally aggressive with me to the point where I told him I felt unsafe and I started to record on my phone They offered me a refund, but they don't appear to actually be processing it . read more

Dr. Wainwright is professional and available for quick office visits. I found the office to be dirty. In fact, saw a cockroach in lobby.

FYI they're not in network with any insurance company. Just found out today after I went to my appointment in which I was advised they were in network.... read more

Dr. Wainwright and staff have taken masterful care of me during my two office visits. Both occasions were for tooth extractions, and Doctor explains everything step by step and does all in his power to make me feel at ease. For your dental needs, this man and his staff are difficult to beat, and always reasonably priced. Christopher G. read more

I had multiple teeth removed and during the sessions they made sure to numb my gums very thoroughly. On top of that, they have flexibility with scheduling and emergency appointments. Each customers room had their own tv to watch whatever while the numbing agent kick in(within 15mins). All in all I am not a fan of doctors or dentists but Wain did a great job keeping calm and informed. I'm coming back for the deep cleaning and the rest of my dentist appointments. read more

I absolutely love this dentist I recommend Him highly. He was fantastic at the extractions of my teeth . What put him over the top for me was his skill a mastery over the denture my partial fits perfectly it stays in place I can eat anything? And my lower is amazing considering. I don't have a lot of bones in my lower job. If you are having an issue with a denture I recommend that you try this dentist. 100%. read more

I went here this past Sunday afternoon with intense wisdom tooth pain that was radiating up my jaw and giving me horrible migraines. I was also told it would cost $65 upfront for the exam and subsequent prescriptions. Once in the exam room, xrays were taken. Dr. Wainwright came in and proceeded to tell me that dentists cannot do this extraction, see an oral surgeon. Then tells me he's going to prescribe me antibiotics and my pain should clear up in a few days. My paperwork clearly stated I'm breastfeeding. I then gently reminded him "I'm nursing" and his response was "Oh then we're not prescribing you anything. We need confirmation from your physician." WHAT?! First of all, I'm new to AZ and don't have insurance. Why tf else would I be going to such a run down shack of a medical office in the middle of nowhere on a Sunday? I do not HAVE a primary physician. So essentially he told me, "thanks for the $65 go f*ck yourself." Second of all, literally anyone would know Penicillin is pregnancy & breastfeeding-safe. I asked the nurse (?) why I paid $65 then because the paperwork said part of that fee was the prescription... that I was being refused for baseless reasons. I left swiftly in my annoyance, but still in a LOT of pain. I'd gone there for help and just felt absolutely robbed of my time and money. My husband went back inside and I'm not sure what the conversation he had was, but we did get refunded. Pretty pitiful that a young woman was taken advantage of and the man had to come in and save the day. Overall, the office staff was nice and I feel bad for them but here I am, days later, no prescription, and no help. This dentist is a complete quack. There's a reason he's practicing out of a dilapidated building that smells of the 70s. read more

I previously wrote a glowing review for Dr. Wheeler (I am pretty sure that is his name.) Unfortunately when I posted the review I forgot to give him stars. So it looked as though I only gave him One star..sorry about that Dr. Wheeler. _ Definitely try this Dentistry out..you willL not be disppointd..Dr Wherler is an outstanding dentist. I actualyl enjoyed my last dental visit. The doc has away of making you feel comfortable. Not only is he a great dentist, he ses to be just am all around good guy!!! read more

I found this place for my friend, on a Saturday, to get a tooth extraction. 1. They won't take insurance! 2. They price gouge you! 3. They were rude as hell to her, and asked her to leave. FYI... if that asshole ever talked to me like that? He would need a dentist! Don't go to these assholes. A disgruntled veteran. read more

Very professional removed 2 split teeth very fast with zero pain this was quickest extraction I have ever had highly recommend this office for your dental needs read more

For real?! I haven't even MET the dentist and I'm furious. My husband has severe pain in his mouth-swollen gums, swollen cheek, can't open his freaking mouth and had been in pain for about 3 days and he finally can't take it anymore. I called because he has ACCCHS (which allots $1000 per year for EMERGENCY dental work, and in his case, I'd consider it an emergency) and your website CLEARLY states accepts ACCCHS. So I call on a Saturday morning, shouldn't be any problem getting my husband an appointment since your website states emergency dental 24/7. Fucking wrong. First, the receptionist isn't answering any questions I have, then tells me "oh I'll call you back" and hangs up on me. I call again, no answer, call again, and she states "oh no, we don't do emergency dental, you'll have to come Monday". WHY ARE YOU ADVERTISING 24/7 EMERGENCY DENTAL IF YOU DONT DO IT?! Receptionist THEN tells me they don't accept ACCCHS AT ALL. AGAIN, WHY ARE YOU ADVERTISING SOMETHING YOU DONT ACCEPT?! She says "sorry, call Monday" AND HANGS UP ON ME AGAIN. SUPER UNPROFESSIONAL AND RUDE RECEPTIONIST. MISLEADING WEBSITE. read more

I was so comfortable! Would recommend people to come if you don't have health insurance! I would come back again !!! read more

I came in for an emergency but they told me my insurance was out of network. Once I told the receptionist that she comes back a few minutes later and ask if I can wait outside because they are going to close the office. Mind you; it's 4:12pm and my initial appointment was at 4pm. So instead of figuring something out she tells me they're closing wait outside. Wow read more

They are awesome had to go in last minute and they immediately set me up for an appointment on a Friday and got it done on Sunday! I was so scared but it was fast and painless. I will definitely come back. Place looks a little old but they did a great job I have no complaints. Thank you! read more

Have to give one, but seriously no stars. This dentist is on some sort of power trip with his education. Assumed I only came in for pain meds when I obviously had two infected teeth. He is very condescending when he speaks and each tooth was hundreds of dollars above the quoted price on the phone. read more

I wouldn't be coming back to this place ..now looking at all the comments they charge me 450 to pulled two teeth when he came in and say it was going to be Serious surgery but he only took five minutes to pull two teeth like wtf !! They over price me saying that it was 900 for both but gave me a 50 percent off so it was 450 plus 45 exam so they basically gave me a bullshit price because when I call they say from 95 to 250 so they got me with the price !! read more

This is one of the best dentist I've been to. I needed an emergency extraction and I was able to get it done the same day at a reasonable price. The receptionist was very nice and the doctor talked to me through everything. If you ever need dental work done this is the dentist to go to!! read more

Definitely coming back! I was in so much pain and knew I needed an extraction, dentist talked me through everything and gave me all available options. Super friendly receptionist and the cost was super affordable. read more

I had a crown come off on a Friday evening and this was pretty much the only office open that could get me in Saturday. They were extremely flexible with my schedule and the staff was very friendly. I was able to get my crown re-cemented and I'm very happy with the results! Highly recommend! read more

This is hands down the WORST dentist office I have ever stepped into. Every time I called to discuss my appointment no one answered the phone. I actually left a voicemail to change the appointment and due to no call back I drove to the appointment at the original time. On my way I tried calling (hoping I'd get lucky and someone would answer) and the lady at the front answered the phone-barley speaks english to me and tells me she cancelled the appointment I had set and I was furious. No one called me to tell me any changes had been made to my appointment. When I left I was to come back in 3 days for an extraction and they prescribed Vicodin only giving me 6 telling me that I needed to be taking it every 4 hours. Well 24 hours in a day-give me 6 and how many days of no pain do I get? ONE. if you prescribe a pain killer at least give the quantity needed for the entire 3 days. Not make me be in pain for days and just hoping I wasn't going to care. So.. When I came back for my tooth extraction there was a different woman at the front desk. She did not smile nor acknowledge the fact that I had even arrived. These people are unprofessional, rude and hands down awful at what they do. They cannot keep their time down and I had to wait over 45 minutes before they even took me back. After waiting over an hour I left to another dentist who actually knows what they're doing. They need to fire their entire staff and rehire new staff that actually knows what they're doing and how to schedule/contact patients with any changes that occur. WOULD NOT RECOMMEND EVEN IN AN EMERGENCY One star is too much. If I could give negative stars I would read more

Good news is that Phoenix has a lot of dentists to choose from and this one makes it really easy to narrow down the list. Bad news, I failed to read the reviews before I took my wife in. We just moved to Phoenix and she had incredible pain. She had been seen by a dentist in NC who warned that she needed several procedures but we moved before we could get those done. Decided to come here to get her some relief until we could find a dentist that could perform the surgery. BIG MISTAKE. #1 don't come here of you're in pain, they prescribe NO pain meds. #2 don't come on the weekend to their "emergeny care", they wont accept insurance (seriously, what kind of dentist has certain hours for insurance) #3 don't come here if you enjoy being treated like a human and want just a modicum of understanding and sympathy #4 dont come here if you dislike doctors that make fun of you for crying (yes, he actually gave my wife a dirty look when she started crying from pain) Just don't come here ever. Ever ever ever. They need to go out of business immediately. Horrible awful experience. read more

I had a tooth "blow up" over the weekend and needed to be seen on Sunday morning. Dr. Wainwright's office got me in right away and I was in a chair being seen within an hour and half from calling. The staff was very friendly, and the Dr. has a great outlook on life and is very pleasant. He also gets straight to the point, no messing around which was nice. The office isnt fancy, but to me that is not what is important, the service is and it was excellent! read more

Where do I begin... I was having severe tooth pain due to a cracked tooth with the nerve protruding. I was able to get in for an appointment on Sunday at 10:30am. Well- it began going into a room to get x rays of my tooth. He took the x ray and moved me to another room. He returned after "reviewing" the x ray. This is what he said... " your tooth is in horrible condition, we will need to pull it. I can't pull it today due to the condition. We will schedule for Tuesday. Then He gave me prices. I had asked him if maybe he could numb that area so I could have a few hours of no pain to rest ( because I had been up all night) he said (with an attitude) well, that would be $50. You really want a shot for $50? I said yes, then he said fine. I will get you in touch with my receptionist and began walking out BEFORE HE EVEN TOLD ME WHAT WAS WRONG WITH MY TOOTH! I called him back and was like well can you finish what you were saying? He didn't have much to say but then said " ACTUALLY you know what, giving you a numbing shot in your mouth is below my dental standards and I can't give it to you" Wait what? Worst experience ever with a dentist. Unprofessional Excused himself to wash his hands and returned 30 seconds later... ew. Rude Honestly I don't even think he took an x ray at all. Said I could go to an "oral surgeon" if I wanted to but would be a waste. Unfriendly I was VERY uncomfortable I left, foundation dentist closer to me and guess what??? They showed me the x ray, they said no need for antibiotics, and a root canal would be just fine. I paid the new dentist 400$ for EVERYTHING. And he numbed my mouth ( thank god ). Don't ever go here..... read more

I had a tooth decay on one of my molar with a whole right in the middle that tormented me every night and day, until I searched up this place and they were able to help me remove the tooth at a great price. I paid just 200$ read more

This is definitely not the dentist to go to, quote the customer low on the phone and then high ball them when they r in the chair and your tooth issue is inflamed. Despite the pain I was in I refused to have the work done. Then they tried to lower the price as I was leaving.That infuriated me more. No business ethics here. My price doubled in the chair and then discounted as I was walking out the door. I knew in my gut that this was going to happen. Shady and so UNPROFESSIONAL, just be honest with your customers. I guess the stars of Yelp r correct with this dentist. The Dr.W was almost convincing in his bedside manner.There are plenty of honest, professional dentists but CW is not one of them in my opinion. Drs. R in the business to help people. It's not about getting wealthy or paying for your Country Club membership. You take a oath, when you put those Dr. shoes on. A oath to help people not to get rich on there issues. read more

It is Saturday May 2, 2020, I am desperate to get some relief from what appears to be an infection requiring a root canal. Unable to reach out to my own dentist due to the covid - 19, through the help of Google, located Dr Clayton Wainright's office that advertised Saturday emergency dental service. Arrived for a noon appointment, in exam room by 12:45pm after completing multiple page medical & insurance questionaire. Upon presenting my dental insurance card was informed insurance not accepted on weekends, cash or card only. Paid up front $65.00 for 2 x-rays, consultation and script for an antibiotic and pain medication. General observation; receptionist / x-ray person, one of same, could use some people skills. Exam room could use a fresh coat of paint to cover up the overwhelming smell of mildew, ceiling tiles water stained need replacing. Overall appearance of facility not very sanitary. Dr Wainwright relatively personable and knowledgeable would be better suited working in a bigger better funded facility. More time was spent reviewing what would be a very expensive procedure upwards of $4,000 and pushing a cash discount down playing insurance. I only wish I would have read the reviews before going to this appointment. The upfront payment for the consultation & the scripts got me through the weekend and allowed me to consult with a acceptable dentist after the non emergency procedure ban was lifted on May 4. I am scheduled for my root canal & new bridge covered by my insurance as of this review. Samuel B / Northwest Phx (4 stars to the Dr. -1 star for facility and help) read more

Had tremendous tooth pain from a wisdom tooth. Made a late afternoon appointment and within 1 1/2 hours with no fuss, I'm now sitting pretty with no pain. Dr. Wainwright was very professional and walked me through every step, and went the extra mile to make sure I felt little to no pain at all. Definitely gonna come back for all my dental needs read more

Walked in with no insurance got a great affordable cash rate . As in other reviews it is older equipment, but it has nothing to do with the service . I was seen right after making the call got my antibiotics and pain killers scheduled my extraction . Dr Clayton Wainwright & his assistant were great people to deal with. I had no problems at anytime . read more

So last night I cracked a tooth, this morning in a ton of pain I looked up emergency dentists. I found a place that seemed to be the answer to my late night early morning prayers. Wainwrights dentistry, their website advertises that they take all insurances. I even double checked to make sure they were in network with my provider. When I walk in they tell me I have to give them 85$ the lady tells me that has to come out of pocket and in pain I agreed. They sit me down and take my X-rays come back and tell me it's going to be 1000 dollars to fix my tooth. I say that's ok my insurance will cover it. They then tell me they don't validate insurances on the weekends and that they need to pay 350 a day for their Google ad campaign!?!? These people victimize people in pain to try to make money to cover their advertising expenses. read more

BAIT AND SWITCH!!Called for an appointment and was told cost would be between $95-$200 and when we got there the estimation was over $300. Receptionist failed to mention that cost only applies to patients who come in before 9.When I questioned the dentist and the assistant he became aggresive and said we should have looked at the online ad, then ridiculed my mom for waiting so long and embarassed us. Unfortunately, this was an emergency and we had to have it done. Would rather my teeth be pulled out by a galloping horse with no anesthetic than to come to this place again. Very rude and dishonest. Told receptionist to hurry up while she was processing my payment. Come on in if you want to get ripped off and a proverbial kick in the face!!! read more

After meeting with multiple dentist and getting outrageous quotes or just being completely uncomfortable with the dentist or staff, I went to Wainwright. He worked with my fear of the dentist and my anxiety about being there. He made me feel comfortable, he talked me through what I needed done, and gave me a quote and was willing to do the work same day. When I went back a few days later to get the work done, I was comfortable with him. He listened to me when I told him I was still feeling pain and immediately stopped to numb me more. Office lady was super nice and understanding. Definitely going back to get the rest of my dental work done. read more

Had a toothache that caused the entire right side of my face to swell. After wasting my time on a Saturday afternoon with Western Dental I decided to wait to see if things got better but by Sunday morning my face and pain were much worse. I looked up emergency dental care and Dr. Wainwright popped up. To my surprise they were open on Sunday til 5. I called and the front office woman set me up immediately to come in. Not high tech but very reliable. The doctor and assistant were both great, explaining all options and prices with me. I was given antibiotics and pain meds and rescheduled for Tuesday. Doctor and assistant were very nice and helpful. Thank goodness for a practice that realizes toothaches aren't always Monday thru Friday from 9 to 5!!. Would absolutely recommend them to friends and family as their prices were affordable as well. Thank you Dr. Wainwright and staff. read more

so today I called them because I have the worst tooth ache and my dentist could not get me in until Tuesday.. So I googled emergency dentist this one poped up by my house.. I call the lady on the phone was ok made an appointment for 930. I get there the lady at the counter saw me walk in with my baby.. I am a single brand new mother my baby is 3 weeks old ... SO I fill out their old school paper work....I could not read half ifof i cause the copy machine ran ut of ink... The second lady was very nice so this message is ot directed to her... She came over told e to come back and place baby on chair so can get xray the dentist came out of his dirty looking office and looks at the baby and me and says you can not leave the baby here you need to get someone to watch your baby and reschedule what bothers me is how rude this guy was...even the lady working was very surprised looking and she said im sorry she looked almost scared of him. and then he went back to his dirty office and the door slammed. I asked the lady to shred my info and I will not return to this establishment. I get it but this was an emergency my tooth broke it was extremely painful and i really felt like i was treated like crap by this guy.. Maybe he should gain some compassion being that hes a dentist... and don't trust their website their office is dirty and dingy and they state n the website that its high tech they are lying... Wainwright Dentistry sucks!!! I just did some research they only have 1 star... DO NOT GO THERE!!!! read more

I just moved to Arizona , I had an infection in one of my teeth. I couldn't find a dentist anywhere and plus I didn't have insurance to cover my dental expenses. I found this place just by searching tooth extraction dentistry , this was the first one . I came in I did a he exam , the pricing was very reasonable , and plus they worked with me and I didn't have insurance . I came back for the tooth extraction and it was the quickest thing I thought inwouldve been screaming but it literally was 2 minutes . The dentist is really nice and friendly as well as his assistants . I would definitely recommend this place. read more

I didn't even see the dentist so this is rated off of the customer service I received. I called to make an appointment for a Saturday because my gums were inflamed and I was in pain. I called them. After the lady told me they couldn't look up my insurance on a weekend (understandable) I asked if I would need to pay out of pocket that day for everything, she said yes. When I told her I couldn't do that, and I didn't have the money for that, SHE JUST HUNG UP ON ME! I was going to make an appointment for a different day when I could use my insurance, but obviously that's not happening. It's sad because this dentist office is literally down the street, but I'll be driving further away to get treated like an actual human. read more

I wish I could give them ZERO stars. I have a wisdom tooth that needs to be pulled, when I originally called they told me 125$ starting , seemed fair. I made my appointment, took a cab because the lady on the phone recommended I don't drive after the tooth extraction. When I arrived I paid a 59$ fee to X-ray & prescriptions. I have been in pain for 5 days straight, I told the doctor everything he showed no interest in my words and just kinda talked over me telling me it would be a serious surgery... he told me there was swelling so I would get antibiotics. The dental assistant came in to do X-ray and jammed it so hard into my mouth it put me in worse pain! After word she came back told me it would 345$ per tooth, and handed me two prescriptions, one was the antibiotic the other a pain killer I said made me itchy, the doctor came in telling me that's what I need to take for a few days then come back to get it removed... I told him that medicine makes my body itchy, he RIPPED the paper out of my hand and said then you can't have any pain killers just take the antibiotic... and walked away... I sat there for a second tryin to understand why they were being so rude but also just walked out the little room... so I walked out to the little lobby area and told my husband I was upset crying in pain. they started telling us to leave that we were harassing them because my husband asked for our money back. The doctor came to the front and told my husband he was his patient so why is he talking, I was in pain so obviously he was talking for me. they refused to give the money back until we said we wouldn't leave without that... why would I pay for absolutely nothing but 20 minutes of getting treated horribly. Eventually they gave my money back as the doctor kept laughing at me while I was crying and making smart comments , as we walked out the DA yelled some comments saying "jesus". I would never recommend this place, have no idea how it's even open. Have no idea how they are even open. read more

Very sketch looking place , the dentist is extremely unprofessional, argumentative. Don't go here , website claims emergency services, they use this to leverage their charges . I only came here as a last resort and ended up leaving due to the inconsistency of their information they provided . If your in pain , don't waste your time and money wait for a weekday to see your regular dentist. read more
