I was called in within 5-10 minutes of getting there ( I was a little early), from panoramic x-ray to digital x-rays, to dental exam and then periodontal exam I was never alone in the room because they were performing a very thorough and comprehensive exam. It was the best exam I have had for the least amount of money. If I were to pay the price of the discount plan for just the exam, it would be well worth it. They were very fast and friendly about emailing me my xrays too. I have a friend who is a dentist and he said his fees are much higher than the estimates I got for the extensive work they say I need done. I am in considerable pain and I need to get something done. I don't have dental insurance, so it's a big investment and I am getting a second opinion on what needs to be done. Overall - I highly recommend and intend to do at least the deep cleaning.

I want to begin this review with God Bless Lifetime Dentistry of Port Orange…read more Now, I must detail my months-long saga for treatment. I am lucky enough to have my dental treatment covered by the VA and they had me sent here for treatment. The referral was completed, and my first appointment was in October. From October until my last appointment last week in April, I have had a constant struggle. The good: The staff's attitudes have always been welcoming and kind. The okay: Scheduling to be the same day for multiple emergency walk-ins was good. The not-so-good: I originally was referred for one crown and three cavities by the VA. The nitrous that was administered never really worked until the dentist came in the room even though the dental assistant said she had it turned on, which, they can't administer a therapeutic effect as their position does not allow them to. There is only one dentist for what seems like 7 treatment berths that are filled at a time, which creates quite a lot of running from room to room for the dentist to do when the office is full of patients and I had very little actual time receiving treatment from her. Most of the work is completed by dental assistants, which, don't get me wrong, they were proficient, however, I did have to go back three separate times because the temporary crowns that they would apply, would break almost immediately, as well as cause pain for days after the application. Even though it took 7 months to complete three cavities and the original crown, in that period and waiting, Dr. Mariotis found other work to be done and recommended two further crowns and cavity filling to be applied due to "decay". While I do not have the training to diagnose myself, I wish I could have gotten a second opinion on the "decay" as I wish I still had my natural teeth. After seeing the bill of $2247.00 per crown, I realized that this may have been an easy money-making opportunity knowing these things would be approved for further treatment by the VA. To conclude, I believe that my teeth are better off than when I started, however, regardless of referral or not from the VA possibly slowing things down, I felt like I had to jump through multiple hurdles created by the staff, or the doctor to be seen, or cared for in a manner that reduced anxiety rather than created it. I appreciate the work that was done, however, I do not believe I will be returning to this office in the future as differences in the treatment plan, and the quality of service necessary to accompany such a high price tag are not something I would subscribe to on my dime, let alone being a good steward of the blessing of community care provided by the VA's money. Thank you Lifetime Dentistry, and I wish you all the best.

The girl told me I could still come in for my cleaning that I've been waiting 2 months for, since my crown was put on. I told them on the phone that after my cleaning, I would have to find a new dentist that would take my insurance, and I wouldn't be back after that. They understood. When I arrived for my cleaning, the next day, I was told I had to pay $91 towards my X-rays. I asked why would I get X-rays when I wouldn't be back, due to you dropping my insurance carrier? I was told it was office policy to have X-rays w a cleaning. Why would I have X-rays if I wasn't able to come back for future dental work? I couldn't believe they wouldn't perform my teeth cleaning without the X-Rays..... it didn't make sense! So I left without my cleaning and was dumbfounded!

On August 19, 2021, Dr. Smillie at Smillie Dental in Port Orange, FL retaliated against me for a…read morenegative review I wrote regarding treatment I had received the day before at Smillie Dental. I had been to Smillie Dental twice before and was in the middle of a dental procedure when Dr. Smillie abandoned me. Dr. Smillie gave no notice of abandonment, and failed to arrange for alternate care to complete the dental work underway. Dr. Smillie refused to speak with me and sent staff to convey to me that I was being dismissed as a patient because of the negative review I had written. I begged for Dr. Smillie to complete the procedure or to have another dentist in the office finish my treatment. Dr. Smillie refused. I stated I would seek another dentist for my future dental needs, but to please finish the work that had already begun. Dr. Smillie refused. The dental work would have been completed in 5 calendar days, on August 24th. Dr. Smillie did not care. I explained I would have to start all over again and that treatment would be delayed 2-3 months (finding another dentist, waiting for an appointment, starting the procedure over again, the required delays between dental visits, etc.). Dr. Smillie did not care. I explained I had already made the investment of time, that my husband was sick, and starting over with the treatment Dr. Smillie could finish at my already scheduled appointment on 08/24/2021 (in 5 days) was a huge impact to me and the health of my sick husband. Dr. Smillie did not care about me or my family. Dr. Smillie refused. Dr. Smillie did not respect me enough as a human being or as a patient to speak to me personally. I was speechless. My initial review accurately detailed and documents prepared by office staff supported my complaint of Dr. Smillie's "bait and switch." Instead of identifying where things fell apart within the practice and/or among the staff and taking corrective action to prevent what happened to me from happening to another patient, Dr. Smillie arbitrarily decided, due to my negative review, to retaliate and to dismiss me as a patient. Writing reviews is something I do regularly. I read reviews and appreciate the time others take to give frank and honest reviews and so I reciprocate by writing reviews - both positive and negative based on my experiences. So, in a nut shell my recommendation is: Do not seek treatment at Smillie Dental. They are unprofessional, they "bait and switch," they do not care about their patients or their families, and do not respect patients enough to even speak with them - they send a staff member. Smillie Dental will abandon you and your family in the middle of a dental procedure, they will not arrange for alternate care to complete your underway dental treatment and they will waste your time and your money. Furthermore, if you write a negative review, they will retaliate against you, dismiss you as a patient, and take harmful actions affecting your health. Forget the fancy office and the state-of-the-art equipment, these things are useless if the doctors in that practice can't or won't treat their patients with care, respect, compassion, dignity, transparency, effective communications, and face-to-face interactions. Please stay away from Smillie Dental - no one deserves, to be treated like Dr. Smillie treated me!
