The staff is genuinely nice and informative. I cannot say I had a bad experience rather an odd experience. I came here almost 3 years ago and was told the same thing as others about the gum disease, I declined the deep cleaning and they continued on with the regular cleaning. This time around I came for a cleaning, very late I admit, however I do brush at least twice a day and try to maintain okay dental hygiene. They said the same thing about the gum disease and honestly I considered it despite the $1000 price tag. They let me know my condition had gotten worse and at that point I was interested to see how much worse. Once we went over the chart we actually saw that my condition had remained the same in the nearly 3 years I hadn t been to see them. At that point I hardly saw it necessary to get the deep cleaning. Of course just as with some others they didn t want to do the regular cleaning either.
In addition they let me know I needed some inlays- which on my insurance are quoted to cost about ~$500 for 3 and they quoted me ~$1500. Three times the price apparently because they didn t have the product required to do the $500 inlays.
Overall I d say that if you don t care about overpaying to be in a pretty office with fancy equipment this is the office for you. After two visits and similar experiences I d prefer to go to an office where I m more than just a markup opportunity.
