I have been going to Gentle Dental, formerly Dedicated Dental, for many years. Their service and quality of work was good, not always the best, but not an issue, up until a few months ago. I never appreciated having a different dentist at least once a year, but didn't think it worth complaining about. I had a broken tooth removed. Prior to the procedure, it had been discussed with me my preference for a pain reliever after I got home. We reviewed my drug allergies, then the dental tech agreed on what I wanted, which was ... read more

DO NOT TRUST THIS PLACE If you want to avoid having complications in the future do not go to this office. I had a porcelain crown on my molar done at this office and the doctor didn't even fit it on me. He had a dental assistant place it on my tooth and he didn't even check if it was done properly. One year later when I went for a check up at another dentist, I was told that the crown wasn't fitted or put on correctly and I started to develop an infection. I immediately called this office and they told me to come in for X-r... read more

The worst experience I've had at a dentist! I was a new patient looking for a dentist covered by my insurance. Not only was the receptionist at the front rude, it took 3 hours to get a cleaning and an exam! Then the dentist informed me that I had 6 cavities (never had one before in my life) and that I needed to buy their special toothbrush combo and mouthwash. They focused so much on telling me all the things I needed to buy and how much everything was going to cost (they sent the "money lady" into the room to show me all th... read more

This office is poorly run, scheduling problems, antiquated X-rays, wait time is ridiculous, and bad business practices. Find another dentist.

Too many re-schedules. I've been with this office for many years and last two appointments I have set up have not been pleasant. Last time I scheduled an appointment they called me very close to my appointment and re-scheduled me. They then called before the "new" rescheduled date, and re-scheduled me yet again. Unfortunately, I had an appointment last week and they called yet again and re-scheduled me. My new date was set to today {March 2nd at 2pm}. They called me last night and tried to re-schedule my time to earlier ... read more

The worst. I've have these braces on literally for 5 years. I was only supposed to have them on for 2. My senior year of high school the doctor decided to take off my top braces so my teeth would "look nice" for my prom pictures, didn't ask for permission, just did it, I was ANGRY. They ended up putting my braces back on after I complained saying my teeth were not ready, and they agreed that they weren't after an evaluation. Now, fast forward to today, I am now 20 years old, it has been a full 1 year since I last got my brac... read more

My wife visited to have her cavities filled. While administering the numbing agent via shot in the gum, they hit some kind of nerve or something and she lost vision in her right eye. This was our first encounter and regretfully not our last. Our new dentist referred my wife to Gentle Dental for gum surgery. Reluctantly she accepted and went to her consultation. The dentist looked at her mouth and had no clue what needed to be done and told her she was fine. After explaining to the dentist what was needed he then all of... read more

Don't EVER come here!! They will over charge you!! Came in March & paid $1800 cash, they can't give u change back so they put your leftover $ in your account. Stupid. It's now June & I still haven't received my $ they owe me for 2 crowns from March! They said they don't take payments but at my second apt. there was a guy in there making a payment! BS! My next apt was over $500 & I used my debit card. Good thing I went over what my insurance covers because that's how I realized I was over charged. I wonder how many people hav... read more

I had a 10 a.m. appointment for a cleaning should take about 15 minutes right? Wrong. I sat there for almost 1 3/4 hrs and finally walked out without a cleaning. I was asked 4 times if I wanted fluoride treatment each time I said "no" when they moved me to the front of the office there was fluoride treatment waiting for me probably still is. This is the second time that this has happened, I will not be going back there are plenty of other places I can go. The girls up front are sweet, the dentist was good but not worth the w... read more
