I greatly appreciate Dr. Nelson and his assistant for making my two root canal procedures…read moresurprisingly comfortable with minimal discomfort. Dr. Nelson is efficient and gentle. He is thorough, taking time to find some "hidden" canals on one of my teeth. His assistant was a soothing presence when it came to administering the lidocaine. I didn't have to wait long for my appointment. I highly recommend Dr. Nelson and staff.

Dr. Nelson is the BEST! He has a great bedside manner, he is thorough, tested me (unlike other…read moredoctors), he is so smart, he explained everything to me in a way that made sense. He didn't charge me for one of the x-rays. He gave me a pricing list that made sense. He gave me two prices, one if the root canal worked and one if the root canal didn't work. What doctor does that? I wish there were more doctors like him - it was the best experience I've ever had with a doctor, besides my childhood family doctor (whose name is also Dr. Nelson). Don't go to anyone else.

I went to Oakwood to see Dr. Lin after receiving a bad root canal and crown from another dentist. I…read morewas extremely nervous and honestly pretty upset because I had been dealing with pain and complications for almost a year. I'll even admit I walked in with a bit of an attitude -- I was frustrated, in pain, and had already spent a lot of money trying to fix the issue. From the moment I arrived, the Oakwood staff immediately put me at ease. Everyone was professional, kind, and incredibly accommodating. They were knowledgeable and took the time to really listen to my concerns. Dr. Lin performed a full exam and asked detailed questions about how the previous dentist had completed the procedure. We both came to the conclusion that the previous dentist likely didn't use a safety cover (rubber dam), which allowed an infection to develop under the tooth. What impressed me the most was how thorough Dr. Lin was. The practice has a 3D X-ray machine that my insurance didn't cover, but instead of retreating the tooth blindly, Dr. Lin offered to waive the fee so he could get a clear and accurate picture of the infection area before moving forward. On the day of the procedure, everything was on time and the treatment was done comfortably with no pain. As I walked out of the building, I told my husband I could already feel the pain starting to decrease. By the very next day I was partially eating on that side, and within four days the pain I had been dealing with for almost a year was completely gone. I am incredibly grateful and so thankful for the Oakwood team and Dr. Lin. If you're nervous about dental work or dealing with complications from another dentist, I highly recommend them.

I was referred to Dr. B by my general dentist after discovering an infected tooth that would…read morerequire a root canal through a crown. Not realizing how serious it was, I called Oakwood to schedule the consultation and after a few questions they were able to move my appointment up and squeeze me in almost immediately. From the moment I called them, I sensed that they genuinely care about their patients. They provided a clear, honest, easy-to-read estimate for the services. Come day of, I was nervous because root canals have such a negative connotation. The receptionist, the assistant (I believe her name was Lily) and Dr. B exceeded all expectations and made the scary experience extremely comfortable and pain free. The office is very nice and clean and I enjoy that the patient chairs look out a window. Dr. B was very kind, professional, efficient and explained everything thoroughly. I'll even add a bonus...in the aftercare paperwork, they provided his personal cell in case I have any questions or concerns after hours. Let me tell you...I had a procedure once that occurred on a Friday evening before closing and the office is closed on weekends. I got home only to find that the blood wasn't clotting from the procedure so I was bleeding excessively from my mouth for HOURS (almost 9 hours to be exact). I was about to go to the ER when it finally stopped, but in those hours I just wished I had a line of communication to the office staff or dentist to advise me on what to do. The fact that Dr. B provided his number goes to show the level of care you can expect at Oakwood.

I recently visited this office for a routine cleaning, which itself was fine, but the experience…read morethat followed left a much stronger impression--and not in a good way. After the exam, I was informed that I needed several cavities addressed. That part wasn't surprising. What was surprising was the financial process that followed. The conversation felt less like a healthcare discussion and more like sitting across from a finance manager at a car dealership--focused heavily on cost breakdowns and payment structure rather than care. The most concerning part: I was told I needed to pay a $100 deposit just to schedule the procedure. While I understand deposits in certain contexts, this felt out of place in a healthcare setting. Patients are already committing to treatment and cost--adding a pay-to-book requirement creates an unnecessary barrier and, frankly, erodes trust. Yes, the deposit is applied toward the final bill, but that doesn't change the principle. Patients shouldn't feel like they're paying for access to care. Healthcare--especially dentistry--relies on trust, transparency, and patient-first thinking. This experience leaned too far in the direction of financial policy over patient care. If you're exploring dental providers, I'd encourage you to ask upfront about payment practices and find an office whose approach aligns with your expectations. There are plenty of great providers out there who prioritize patient experience alongside clinical care. Unfortunately, this wasn't one of them.

STOP. READ THIS BEFORE BOOKING AN APPOINTMENT…read more TL;DR: Incompetent billing department turned a common $250 out-of-pocket procedure into a $1,000+ financial headache. They will lie to get you off the phone, then ghost you completely. Zero accountability or care for supporting patients financially through proper claim filing, even when you handle-hold them to what needs to be submitted to insurance. I'm writing this review to warn others about the incompetence I've experienced with this dental office's insurance handling. What should have been a straightforward scaling and root planing procedure in January 2025 has turned into a year-long ordeal that's now costing me an additional $800 out of pocket; money I shouldn't owe if they had done their job correctly or followed up when I did their work for them. The Timeline of Incompetence: January 2025: I had scaling and root planing done. Paid $248 out of pocket at the time of service. The office led me to believe this would be pre-authorized with my insurance. It wasn't. July 2025: My claim was denied by BCBS Dental due to insufficient documentation/justification from the dental office. Then the resubmission was also denied. According to BCBS, the office apparently just copy-pasted some generic justification on the resubmission without providing the actual clinical details required. I was not notified of either denial by the dental office. Here's what makes this inexcusable: This is a common procedure. The office literally wrote a blog post about it (https://www.leanderdental.com/blog/deep-cleaning/) and emailed their entire patient list promoting it in the middle of last year. I've even had this exact procedure done successfully with a previous dentist who had zero issues getting insurance to cover it. Yet somehow, this office couldn't figure out how to document it properly? The worst part? They never told me about any of this or my increased financial responsibility. August 2025: I only discovered the problem when I started receiving monthly statements for $791.86. When I called, Christina in the front office claimed they were "waiting on a decision for the resubmitted claim." So I called BCBS myself and learned the claim had already been denied a month earlier. I had to do their job for them. BCBS gave me detailed guidance on exactly what documentation was needed: pocket depths, bone loss measurements, crestal bone level greater than 2 mm apical to the CEJ, radiographic evidence, etc. I called the office back within an hour with these specific instructions. Christina assured me they would coordinate with my hygienist and resubmit with the proper clinical details. I was advised to ignore the statements for the time, as the claim would be re-submitted with greater supporting narrative / details. That never happened. The Final Insult: January 2026: Over ONE YEAR after my procedure, Zarika from the office finally called about my outstanding $700+ balance. She informed me they had resubmitted "as a courtesy" the one time and would not be submitting again. This directly contradicted Christina's promise. I explained the entire situation and referenced my previous conversation. Zarika said Christina would call me back within an hour. I never heard from them. I followed up with an email to the office, but never heard back by email either. The office will make promises to defuse an uncomfortable phone call, but won't do the work to actually follow up on the patient's requests/needs. They don't seem to care that a $250 out-of-pocket procedure becomes over $1000 out-of-pocket, despite the patient explaining to the billing department EXACTLY how to avoid that, per insurance. What This Means: Either this dentist performed dental work that wasn't medically necessary (unlikely), or - more probably - the front office/billing department is either too lazy or too inexperienced to file insurance claims correctly. This office failed at every single step: * No pre-authorization despite implying there would be for an expensive procedure * No proactive communication when the claim was denied (twice) * No proper follow-up / claim resubmission even when I communicated to them the exact documentation requirements * Conflicting information between staff members * Broken promises about callbacks * Zero accountability I'm now stuck with an $800 bill because they couldn't be bothered to document a routine procedure properly, communicate honestly about my claim status, or follow through on their promises. Thankfully, I proactively cancelled my other appointments with the office for ongoing dental procedures, pending a successful resolution to this issue, which didn't happen. So I saved myself additional headaches and high out-of-pocket costs. Find a dental office that actually knows how to handle insurance claims professionally and treats their patients with basic respect.

I had to get a root canal retreated after it got reinfected (how does this happen? I have no idea)…read moreand my dentist referred me out to an endodontist for the procedure. I chose Lonestar Endodontics because they were in-network for my insurance, as well as the good reviews. Dr. Monts was friendly, professional, and QUICK!

They offer you bottled water or coffee as you enter. They also greet you with the name you wish to be called. They also work with your insurance provider the best they can and go over costs before starting. I sort of hate the xray part when they put the shield in your mouth.
