The owner/dentist freaked out on Her saying She didn't know of my existence as a patient. After speaking to other professionals about the case, it was clear that I probably got ripped off.The procedures done were likely unnecessary and I find it worrisome how She went off on my Mom.Overall it was more expensive than even a dentist in the Chrysler building in the middle of Manhattan! I am unsure of Her credentials, but I do know as a general Dentist if you take an extra class or two on the side, you can basically re-bill yourself as something else like for example: "reconstructive or cosmetic.I believe that likely I was swindled for a couple grand at this place.

I was referred to Bello Smile Dental Center by a friend of mine who has been Dr. Demelo's patient…read morefor a long time. Before I went to see Dr Demelo, I saw two other dentists due to a fractured lower molar. Both professionals gave me no hopes about saving my tooth. The first dentist that I saw recommended an implant and the second one a root canal and porcelain crown. Both recommendations were beyond my budget and my belief in maitaining my teeth for as long as possible. For my first visit, Dr Demelo did a full mouth diagnoses and taught me how to maintain my oral health. I was very happy when I heard Dr Demelo saying that her goal is always to maintain her patients' teeth. Dr Demelo made a porcelain crown for my fractured lower molar and no root canal was needed. The treatment cost was less than the ones recommended by the previous dentists and the crown looks just like my old tooth. I am extremely satisfied with the results of the treatment and would like to recommend Bello Smile Dental Center for everyone, especially patients with cases like mine. The office location is very covenient and the front desk is very sweet and helpful when it comes to payment plans. I really like their professionalism and attention provided.

The words "root canal" stirs a lot of emotions…read more Anxiety and fear are two things that come to mind for most people. But fortunately, Dr. Kellert really lived up to his sterling reputation. Recently one of my old fillings broke off and after my regular dentist finished the replacement filling I spent the next two weeks slowly spiraling into a daily cycle of agonizing pain. Turns out I had all the classic symptoms of pulpitis (e.g. sharp unbearable pain when something hot/cold touched my damaged tooth) and I needed relief fast. I was recommended to see Dr. Kellert at the soonest and I was fortunate enough to get a last minute appointment. Upon arriving, the professional and friendly staff had me in the chair quickly and Dr. Kellert quickly diagnosed (e.g. confirmed) my issue and the need to have a root canal procedure. Of course I had reservations since my last root canal with another dentist was by far the most painful experience of my life (it hurt more than when I broke my wrist and several other bones in my body). Thankfully Dr. Kellert was extremely mindful of this and quickly had me numbed to a comfortable level. The procedure went by very quickly and I was pain free the entire time, which is worth noting since I don't usually react much to novocaine. He was very gentle and did a fantastic job. I was extremely surprised at how smoothly the process went. I strongly recommend Dr. Kellert to anyone who is looking for a dentist who can take care of their root canal issues in the most professional and non-stressful way.

They are the practitioners to whom really good dentists refer their patients when dental problems and pain stem from disease and necrotic nerves, causing inflammation, abscesses and tooth loss. Further, the staff is intelligent and helpful. However, it is the nature of the practice that unscheduled appointments and emergencies cause difficulties in logistics. I have been a patient for a decade and consider myself fortunate to have this resource.

We were charged for x-rays as it was part of the new patient sign up but was not intimated when we booked the appointment that this will incur an out of pocket expense as we are covered only every 5 years. When I made the appointment for my daughter, I specifically asked if they needed us to bring in anything. I was told they had everything they needed. A simple transfer of the existing x-rays from my previous dentist would have been sufficient but I ended up paying $150+. Highly inefficient and they do not even have a management number to contact to provide feedback.

So I am writing this to keep people well aware of Brighter Dental Practices and pricing. I went…read morehere because my old dentist had retired and I found them who also accepted my insurance. So first I was told i could only schedule on a Monday because that is when a person who does the evaluation was available. Mind you, no dentist would use a specific date to eval you. Most dentist just do it on any scheduled appointment. So it was my first red flag. Second red flag was the actual evaluation. It took nearly 30+ plus minutes to get some x-rays biting down on X-Ray rings that eventually bruised the top of my mouth. They use a very archaic system that my new dentist did the same xrays in 10 seconds with a 360 degree x-ray machine and saw more then what these people saw. So after the assistant did the x-rays i met with another dentist who told me i had gum disease and would need oral surgery in two of my teeth. I would also need crowns from previous root canals also will need two new root canals. I also was recommended a night guard which honestly is the only thing they got right. So....after that 5 minute check of my teeth, i was told to wait. 5 minutes later I get with a estimated bill $10,500. I could pay off my car with that money. That was red flag number 3. So it gets deeper. They wanted a total of 15 visits. I dont have vacation time that will cover this. So I had a appointment booked my PCP the next day who I will review this with. I saw my PCP the next day for a check up and he received a medical clearance request from Brighter Dental. My Doctor said in his 40+ years of working a practice, he has never seen a request like this. What is a bigger joke is that they requested dosage amounts of different anesthetics that they should already know how to prescribe and use. We both suspect that Brighter Dental doesn't want to take responsibility in case a screw up happens. They should have a licensed anesthesiologist on staff if they want to administer it. So my PCP thought it was Bullshit and in agreement we would reject the request and go elsewhere. So I went and saw a private dentist and when i showed him the bill, his mouth dropped, his assistants' mouth dropped. I had my eval done in 30 minutes with x-rays and all I needed were fillings. I had some cavities but he got rid of them on my next visit and it only took him an hour. He does know about Brighter Dental. So they are a chain dentistry. They have good dentist who work there but they are very aggressive with their treatments...most you dont even need.So obviously i stuck with my new dentist and didnt even both with this place anymore. So discussing the business model with my dentist, he told me that they stay in business because people are just willing to pay for their absurd treatment plans. They charge whatever they want and bank in a shit load of cash. They are very aggressive with you and put you in fear right away. Dont fall for this bullshit maneuver . If you feel its not right, then most likely it is not right. My biggest advice to you is to get a second opinion from a private practice. you will get the honest answers and honest pricing. If you are still unsure, just ask if they charge contracted rates and if they do, perfect. Stick with them. I could tell my dentist was a great one. The way he works with kids is phenomenal. He never minds a personal call if you have any concerns. He is always available. Thats why I go to him and have huge confidence in him. Put it this way, my out of pocket is in the hundreds thanks to him and not in to the double digits thousands thanks to these corporate crooks. So don't go to places like this. Stick with a independent private practice.
