If I could give 0 stars I would. NEVER EVER go here. I scheduled my appointment TWO WEEKS in advance at 2 pm. They tell me the day of the appointment that they need to reschedule. I work full time and had to take leave to make it to this appointment so I could not reschedule. They set me up at another location only to be told five minutes later (they kept calling me after I specifically asked to text since I was at work) that I cant get the time I wanted. So they set me up at a third location 20 mins out of my way. I show up... read more

Whatever you do, dont make the same mistake as I did and go to these crooks for the last several years. They not only lie, leave you on hold for twenty minutes at a time, But they also overcharge Significantly. I had a root canal and a crown done a year and a half ago in 2023, For which they charge me $2000 for (I got quoted for 500 somewhere else afterwards - straight CROOKS). They said my insurance was good to go and then my claim was accepted. For months, I was receiving emails with statements for 500$ EXTRA dollars with ... read more

I have very similar complaints against Gentle Dental, except the office is called '*********' in ******, **. SAVE YOURSELF A LOT OF AGGRAVATION. Just don't go to any of their locations, which, unfortunately there are many. Same issues as others: 1. Misdiagnosis. Gentle Dental said my senior spouse had SIX cavities, plus gum disease. Of course, they suggested a super expensive treatment plan. We got a second opinion: NO cavities, no gum disease! (I knew my flossing husband was an oral health fanatic) Only one of two things co... read more

I went in for a routine cleaning, which was completed in just 15 minutes. The service felt rushed, with only the bare minimum performed. However, the bill showed charges for a ********************* typically associated with deep cleaning. This procedure is usually divided into four sessions, with each session lasting 11.5 hours. Its unclear how a 15-minute appointment could qualify as a comprehensive deep scaling ************ verify, I visited another dental clinic two days later, where the dentist confirmed that the bottom ... read more

The staff here lie, overcharge, give incorrect information, coverup for the doctors mistakes, forgot to return calls, dont enter referrals, dont bother to sit down to look at your teeth, recommend treatments that arent needed including fillings. The office manager doesnt seem to care about how this stuff messes with peoples lives.

I have had multiple billing issues with Gentle Dental in ********, **. I called to speak with the office manager, ******. I was told multiple times by ****** that following up on denied claims is the responsibility of the patient, not the provider. I explained that I am unable to follow up on denials when my insurance has no record of the claims ever being received. She continued to tell me it isnt their problem and theyve done nothing wrong. I called back and spoke with *****. I asked if she could provide proof that they ac... read more

Ive been a patient at the gentle dental in *******, ** on ********************* for over a decade. I typically love the dentist and have always had a great experience there until today on 10/24/24. I went in for my six month cleaning and I didnt have my typical doctor, which is Dr. ******* which was fine Until this was the worst experience Ive ever had in my entire life at a dentist office and it was just a cleaning. It was so painful. I believe I saw Dr. *** she is fairly young. Her and the assistant were constantly leaning... read more

After being a patient of Gental Dental in ***** for 18+ years I had to leave the practice since their female Oral Surgeon was unable to remove implant screws that she herself put in. It was discovered that screws we're improperly set by her which created an absolute disaster and also compromised another tooth in the midst of it all. I'm in the process of seeing another dentist to help the fix what Gental Dental Tempe Oral Surgeon could not even though she created the issue.
