The office staff were very professional and the nurses were very soothing to my son. Unfortunately, when we got home, he kept bleeding, which put us behind in getting his pain under control. I called after hours and within minutes Dr Buck called me back with specific instructions as to how to help my son. His suggestions worked and we had a much better night than I'd anticipated. I really really appreciated Dr Buck's responsiveness especially after hours! Dr Buck also did my daughter's wisdom teeth 2 years ago and thankfully it was a more straightforward recovery.

He removed not only the tooth but the ENTIRE bone on the top of the mandible that held the tooth. This was unnecessary, excruciatingly painful, and has rendered my mother's jaw incapable of receiving an implant because there is no bone left!

Our medical needs is not taken serious. I am been force to get a bridge which I decide I would like to get my partial instead. Its about the money with them because the dentist and his assistant keep saying you get a refund. Ok i get a refund if i owe them less or the partial cost less. Its the what comfortable to me and what I can handle day to day. I been lied to I talk to three others dental office Its only take a week for a partial to come back I know I had one. The dentist said I got to wait two weeks for my gum to heal not true. When I got my other partial that dentist wanted my gum where he extracted my tooth out to mold/heal with the gum. So that a lie I can get a partial Its be back in a week. This dentist trying to force me to get the bridge cause of the money. The dentist want that money.

However he retired and I moved to Birmingham. I was putting off looking for a new dentist because they are often hard to trust and I feel try to do more work then needed. But, I needed a dentist ASAP because by I cracked my front tooth! I called the next morning and they were able to get me in same day. I was in and out quick, he gave me a great consult and did not overcharge -even undercharged- he also did not do more work to my tooth than necessary. My tooth looks great and I scheduled a future appointment for cleaning! I'm glad I found a new dentist and will recommend to anyone who asks!

Short story: one of my best dental experiences ever…read more Being new to the area, I didn't have many personal recommendations, so I went on yelp, Google and my insurance website. I found another dentist and got a lot of work done on my teeth. Since I don't have a dental degree, I generally trust what dentists tell me I should do. I ended up in Dr. Cosgrove's office after all this work and immediately wished I had started here. The staff was kind and went out of their way to explain my insurance coverage and costs before I visited. Dr. Cosgrove took the time to explain the risks and benefits of the treatment he suggested. He did most if not all of the work himself, undercharged me for work he performed, and conversed in a very down to earth way with everyone he interacted with. I think I will switch to his practice: I was very impressed.

It has been over 3 years and one of my son's wisdom tooth extraction holes has still not healed…read moreproperly. We have been back to the dentist multiple times with infections and clean out. We have now consulted with a new oral surgeon, and further surgery has been scheduled to correct the problem. Our new oral surgeon stated that everyone has an off day. Unfortunately, that "off day" has caused considerable pain and consequences to my son. Dr. Roden was informed of my son's allergy issues at our wisdom teeth removal consult and informed that he could not take ibuprofen due to it triggering hives and facial swelling. My son's allergist even prescribed an epinephrine pen and prednisone as additional precautions. After surgery, I had to inform the nurse again that my son could not take ibuprofen due to it triggering his facial swelling and hives. She then told me he could just take the prescribed prescription pain medication, supplement with acetaminophen, and use the liquid lidocaine, as needed. The prescribed pain medication contained acetaminaphen. I questioned her on taking too much acetaminaphen and she said I could just calculate the correct amount. After three days of stretching the prescribed pain medication, my son was still in severe pain. I called Dr. Roden's office and informed them of his pain and requested a refill of his pain medication. Neither Dr. Roden nor his nurse called me back to question my son's pain or symptoms. I was told by the receptionist that Dr. Roden would refill my son's prescription but that I would have to come pick it up due to it being a narcotic. The prescription was for 5 additional pain pills. By the next evening, my son was in excruciating pain and his symptoms pointed to dry socket in both of his bottom extractions. I called the after-hours line, as this was a Saturday, and was put in touch with Dr. Roden directly as the on call doctor. Dr. Roden was rude, dismissive and expressed very little care or concern. I was informed that I'd "need to call the office on Monday to bring him in" and that he "couldn't call in any pain medication", which I had not requested. Only after I pressed Dr. Roden for anything that could be done to alleviate the pain did he inform me that I could clean out the sockets myself with salt water using the provided syringe and liquid lidocaine. By this point, I was out of the lidocaine and Dr. Roden did agree to at least call that prescription in for me. I understand that dry socket happens. However, not questioning a patient's pain and symptoms when he's 3 days post wisdom teeth extraction is poor care. Not altering a patient's post-operative pain management plan when you've been informed multiple times of your patient's special circumstances with regards to ibuprofen is poor care. Finally, being rude and dismissive of your patient's genuine health issue is just plain unprofessional. I suggest consulting a different oral surgeon.

I had an extremely disappointing experience with ClearChoice. I paid in full with cash for what was…read morepresented as a premium treatment plan and invested a significant portion of my life savings because I trusted what I was promised. Unfortunately, my treatment plan was never fully completed, and I never received all of the products and services that I paid for. Instead of delivering the premium quality that was advertised, I felt like corners were cut and lower-cost alternatives were used without proper explanation. Another major concern was that much of my treatment appeared to be performed by students or inexperienced staff while I was paying premium prices for specialized care. I expected experienced professionals throughout the process, especially considering the cost. Customer service was also disappointing. Once payment was made, it became very difficult to get concerns addressed or receive clear answers about my treatment. I felt like my concerns were ignored rather than resolved. Based on my personal experience, I would encourage anyone considering ClearChoice to ask detailed questions, get everything in writing, and fully understand exactly what products, materials, and services are included before paying. I regret trusting the sales presentation, and I cannot recommend my experience. Beware go else where and get estimates not just them.
