I was suspicious that a back molar tooth did not need to be pulled, the radiologist agreed with me, but the dentist insisted on pulling it anyway- I went in for a check up and the dentist was 30 minutes late so i had to have the checkup with a different dentist, i bumped into him as i left and it was awkward.

BIGGEST ISSUE: I had a balance of $1700 for pulling two teeth and having injections of bone filler- and couldnt afford it so I set up $77 monthly payments; I replaced my bank card back in July of 2013 and reset up the payments, but got a $25 late fee that was continually removed from my next payment [making each payment $55, therefore past due again for the next month.] So I have now paid $250 in fees [May 18, 2014] instead of paying that into the contract balance [which i now still owe $312]. I called to ask about this and all he could say is that it was in the contract.

I feel conned. I will not return for further dental work at any Western Dental location.

My mouth felt disgusting when I left my appointment. It actually felt dirtier than it did when I arrived. My teeth cleaning felt very rushed. I was disappointed that they didn't take the time to clean my teeth thoroughly. I could tell that they didn't practice good oral hygiene and it made me doubt that they really knew what they were talking about. It didn't look like they practiced what they preached. It seemed like they were trying to rush my appointment and were annoyed to be helping me. It was obvious that they wanted to be somewhere else. All the equipment at this office seems a little old and outdated. It's usable, but just barely.

NEVER GO TO THIS LOCATION.
I was told I would only have braces on for a year, it has now been THREE YEARS. There is no reason for it to take this long. My braces have been paid off for awhile now but yet they keep extending the date. They do not know what they are doing. They told me 3 times that my next appointment would be my last. I will never recommend this place. I would have been better off going to Mexico, where all of my cousins went to get braces... they only had their braces on for 1 & 1/2 years yet I still have mine on. Mind you, I did not need a head gear, an expander or any additional services. They would have done it right AND in a timely manner. Save yourself the many appointments, money and headaches.

I feel like they really pushed me to get all of my wisdom teeth pulled... but when I say no, they say that only two "need" to be pulled. Their staff was friendly, and there is one dental assistant that goes above and beyond to always welcome my family and me. I felt worse when I left, but I am in the process of getting everything fixed. The office was very easy to locate. They have billing, so a huge dental bill is not a worry... Kind of... Also, same day appointments are almost always available.

The estimates for the work were mind-boggling. This dentist wanted $19,000.00 (that's nineteen thousand dollars, and not a typographical error) for repairs that he said he chose to keep conservative because the patient was 79 years old. I'm still in a daze from that moment. I've never so much as driven past the place again, because the sight of it makes me weep to the point where I am unable to breathe.
