I hate dentists. When I found out that I needed some dental work done, I asked them to just knock…read moreme out for it. While they couldn't knock me out, the doctors at Snodgrass-King did everything they could to make me comfortable, and it turned out to be an awesome experience! I was given medicine to help me relax the night before and morning of the appointment, given nitrous to help me (feel loopy) relax more. Kathryn and Dr. Claire had me good and numb when she gave me the shot to numb my tooth, and had a jazzy little technique where she shook my lip back and forth to distract from the feeling of the shot, which totally worked. They made the suggestion that I wear headphones during my procedure, which I did, and I didn't feel a thing. Dr. Claire was thorough and patient and understanding, and did an outstanding job. I didn't have to sit in the waiting room for an hour, I was there about three minutes before I got called back and they got started immediately. I also had a cleaning, and Amber was the best hygienist I have ever had. Again, very professional. thorough, and very gentle on my teeth (seeing as how feeling those metal picks scraping my teeth makes me want to claw the covering off the arm rests, this was a good thing). Snodgrass-King gets a lot of flack for taking children back without their parents. I took my then 7 year old daughter there for a filling she needed, and she went back no problems. I will admit that I felt a bit of anxiety (ME, not HER) letting my precious baby go back without me, but I retired to the adults only area and enjoyed the coffee bar and big comfy couches while she had her work done. When she came out, I expected her to come to me in tears telling me how terrible it was. Instead, I got a half smiling (one side of her mouth was still completely numb) and happy kid who had absolutely no fear of the dentist. I have come the conclusion that us over-protective parents going back with the kids gives them the impression that there is something that they SHOULD be afraid of, which is probably wahat has led to my distaste for the dentist chair. This was a FANTASTIC experience and I have already scheduled my next appointment to have the one other tooth worked on that I need done. Dr. Claire is awesome and I would definitely recommend this office to anyone who needs some dental work done!

My son moved his office from Franklin, TN to Mt Juliet due to our move. We have been on this office…read morefor about 2 years. He has never missed an appointment for ortho. We were 16 mins late to one appointment and they refused to see my kids for 6 months cleaning. Reschedule and told me 4 months away. So I called Franklin TN and they got me in. We saw them every 2-3 months almost 7k dollars later I'm informed that my son who has only had one cavity his whole life has THREE CAVITIES AND NEEDS A ROOT CANAL. I'm pissed like how the heck do your staff missed that. I'm about to file all the complaints I can because this is unacceptable. Talk about ineffective dentistry at its best. I will not be back and I am looking to see if they are financially responsible. My PRIVATE dental insurance should be charged for their inability to be sound professionals. No grace given today!!!! Kicker: two years ago FRANKLIN OFFICE was watching that tooth. How did you miss that? Very upset because this is painful and could have been avoided. Beyond disappointed

We've been using Associated Children's Dentistry for our three kids since 2010, and are careful to…read moreget our 6 month checkups. My eldest son sustained quite a bit of damage to his teeth in an accident in 2008, and as he gets older, there have been some issues with the damaged teeth that have needed to be addressed. First, I do want to say that they can be difficult to get in contact with as you usually have to leave a message even during business hours. They do call you back promptly. I was told that they work with a skeleton staff, and that the dentist is not in attendance every day they are open (or at least this is how it was 6 months ago - obviously, appointments requiring a dentist are scheduled for days he is there.) They also have had a bad habit of rescheduling appointments since they don't have a backup if the dentist is sick or can't come in. However, most of the time (except for when the dentist got sick) they seem to call well in advance. Still, it's really annoying, especially the one appointment that took three tries. They do allow parents in back, contrary to other reviews. But they do recommend that parents wait in the waiting room, as your nervousness does make the children nervous. I imagine the review about the mother in hysterics over her child is exactly why the protocol is in place -it's hard as a mother to sit by passively if the child acts like the procedure hurts or is uncomfortable, and people rooting around in your mouth is never fun. Some people can handle their own discomfort for the sake of their children better than others, just like some people are better with blood than others. In my experience, they've done very well with my children, and keep in mind that right now these three are 8, 5 and 3. Even when my two youngest were very young, they did very well in keeping the children calm and relaxed, and treating it like a game rather than the torture I personally think dental cleaning/work can be. There is a little waiting room in back for the kids with games and toys, so they never feel like they are in a sterile, boring, scary environment. Finally, due to the trauma my eldest's teeth had as a toddler, he had to have a tooth pulled because it wasn't coming out on it's own and it was damaging the permanent tooth above it. He is my most likely to get hysterical over shots and other painful things, but he came out of the tooth pulling smiling, much to my surprise. I had some questions regarding the pulled tooth that day, and when I called the office, they had the dentist themselves get back to me almost immediately to answer my concern.

Both of my kids went here for a while; now only my daughter does, but we really like Ms. Suzanne…read more She is great with the kids. The waiting room is fun, with books, an activity table, and a video game system for the kiddos while they wait for their appointment. Each of the chairs in the back has a TV for the children to watch while they are getting the work done or cleanings. Headphones are also available to the patient. One adult is allowed back with the child during the appointment. At the end of their appointment, they are given a token to get a prize out of a toy machine near the exit. All of the staff (with the exception of one of the older dental techs) is very friendly and welcoming. That particular tech pulled a filling out of my son's tooth during a routine cleaning and was very rude and in denial when confronted with it (after she just got done telling the doctor that she had done it but it had been by accident). That lady is the reason for the four stars, if not for her I would have gladly given five.

Lady straight argued with me over paperwork I never got or signed--literally, not even in my file. I mean, does this place not understand how paperwork actually works? Just in case they don't, let me school them--in order for paperwork to be valid it has to be signed and returned back--that's the patients way of agreeing to the policy of the place. I was going to make a complaint to whoever her superior was and she would refuse to give me her name. Businesses need to learn real quick that their lower-level employees are the first experience a consumer has with their services--either train your staff better or hire people who know what they are doing.

Was told that I would pay a portion and insurance would cover the rest not to worry. 4 months later I get a bill for $2,100. I call them and Heather said "it is not their job and it's my problem to deal with insurance" in a rude email that she sent me. The lady in the office called my insurance and confirmed that it is covered only to blame the insurance for not covering a specific type of filling. Said most policies do so I didn't ask for that specific one but it is my fault not theirs. Sent it to collections and now won't return my calls. Scammers at the highest level. Will never go back there and do not recommend anyone else to go. Find a trustworthy dentist to be into that isn't looking to cheat you out of money. Never had such a terrible experience before with a medical provider.
