I just got back home from getting my teeth extracted from Inspire Dental Group and I must say that I am beyond impressed with how smooth everything went. From the plentiful options of times available and willingness of them to set me up with a next day visit with Dr Kenneth A. Lee to whom set me up with the appointment with Dr Germain Jean-Charles (because I had an infection, Dr Lee couldn't do anything at that current time). Now I've had dentist in the past, military, civi and with them all, there was some type of issue/is... read more

Short story time: I cracked a molar a few weeks back, super uncomfortable, lots of pain. My Dentists was on vacation for the month, his receptionist said I should schedule an extraction and gave me a referral to an oral surgeon. Whew! Just yank the tooth and no more pain! So I call the referral, and they will perform the extraction... 7 WEEKS FROM THE DAY I CALLED. 7 WEEKS OF PAIN. 7 WEEKS OF GETTING ANXIETY WHENEVER I THINK ABOUT EATING. They urge me to go see a dentists in the interim. What can I do? I schedule it for t... read more

I would give zero if I could. Billing is a nightmare. My insurance covers what Inspire already had me pay for. Then I get additional bills from "labs". DO NOT GO here. Scammers.

TLDR - Dentists and Hygienists are great, the receptionist is not (don't go in early even if they text you requesting you to come in because you'll end up wasting that time in the waiting room)! I have been going to this place for the last 4 years and honestly, this is the first time I have had any issue with them. The blame goes to the receptionist because the dentists and the hygienists are actually very nice and considerate. The receptionist on the other hand, has no regard for people's time, is rude and does not own a ... read more

Do not go to inspire Dental for any extensive work. It is sub par work they do not refer out when they should and there is a 2-year 6-month statute of limitations in order to file a claim after that the dentist gets away with malpractice . I had three root canals done by doctor Pathak in which she should have referred out she never even finished the root canal and did subpar Medical performance on all three of them as a result I'm losing two of my teeth maybe all three . And there's nothing I can do about it because it's bey... read more

My dentist of 25 years left his private, single practice about 5 years ago to join Inspire. It's been downhill from there. The most recent incident has resulted in my severing that 30+ year relationship with my trusted dentist. I had a regular 6 month hygienist appointment at the Inspire office closest to my home (not where my dentist practices) with a specific hygienist who I like and trust. At check-in, I was asked for payment, which included a $180 charge for a panoramic xray, which I refused to accept. I would like... read more

This is the second time when I call and leave a message with a person and nobody bothers to call me back. They don't seem to care. I've been coming for years and have noticed a steady decline. I will be looking elsewhere.

I hate to write a bad review about Inspire because up until this recent experience, I always had great experiences. However, I think it's important to share my experience. I was experiencing severe pain in a tooth, the pain had moved from my tooth and caused major swelling in the entire right side of my face, including my right eye. I had gone to the ER prior to getting an emergency appointment and was prescribed an antibiotic. I was in excruciating pain from this tooth, and was relieved when they were able to see me ri... read more

I had my first appointment at Inspire dental on March 31,2023. Chad cleaned my teeth and did a great job. The dentist I had an appointment with did not show up so I did not have a dental exam. I did however receive an email stating that I needed 3,500 dollars worth of dental treatments. I called and asked to speak to a dentist about the work that needed to be done. When I got a call back he defended the changes but back tracked when I asked many questions. I did go to another dentist for a second opinion and he confirm... read more
