The most stress-free dental experience I've had in years, thanks to a wonderfully talented doctor,…read morecaring staff, and beautiful setting. Having had extensive procedures in several other parts of the country (including several crowns and an implant that were well done by my previous provider, in San Diego), I was unsure I'd find an office in Tucson that could match the level of expertise I've had elsewhere. Dr. Mitchell made that simple -- he not only has excellent depth in general and aesthetic dentistry but is also just an incredibly nice person. I'm someone who experiences major anxiety in the chair, and I've found Dr. Mitchell's easygoing demeanor a huge relief. I also appreciate that the hygienist is extremely respectful and patient-focused. For instance, I'd had my last bitewings eleven months before, and before my arrival, she had noticed that and double-checked with my insurance to ensure I was eligible, but more important, she also asked me if I would prefer to have them a little early or wait until my next visit. It's completely refreshing to have the staff ask what the patient wants, instead of trying to push services or products. Another major advantage is the office itself -- located on Grant Road (north lane, next door to Black Rock Coffee, just across the street from the Mercedes Benz dealer and slightly west of the post office), the building has ample covered parking, and the interior capitalizes perfectly on stunning views of the Catalinas, with several exam chairs facing straight out to the gorgeous scenery...just another way to feel relaxed and happy in a place dedicated to making you flash your best smile!

They were able to get me in for a new patient appointment THE NEXT DAY! Dr. Carson met with me in an office room to discuss my experiences, concerns, and expectations before he even looked in my mouth. He explained how his practice works and made sure he understood my needs/wants. He and his team did a thorough inspection of my mouth - teeth, gums, roots, jaws, etc, - and told me what they were going to do so there wouldn't be any surprises. I went back later that day for my hygene appointment and did not have to repeat the info from the initial appointment. Communication!! The hygenist knew all about me from the other staff and still took time to get to know me. I was shown how my teeth look / should look, without shame or judgement. The equipment and technology are up to date, the employees work together to serve the clients AND like eachother, and Dr. Carson is in the loop the whole time. This is a well-run practice. I have found my new dentist!!

I will give this dentist zero stars if I could. Had a tooth extracted few months ago because Dr…read moreCarson was not interested in doing his job and he was just looking to get as much as possible from our dental insurance for useless work. I had to see our old dentist who was late to save a tooth( tooth had bone infection that was spreading) and after taking 2 weeks of antibiotics we ended up paying $150 for X-rays that's usually covered by insurance and additional $ for the extraction of the tooth since Dr Carson's office used all the money allowed for a full mouth and panoramic X-rays for the next 3yrs and any work in a 12 months period. Maybe Bitewings X-rays will be paid next year by our insurance but not sure at the moment. It's very said that these type of dentist exists. Don't go here if you want to keep your teeth. Stay away!

I've been going to Martin Taylor for two years now. I had to delay a cleaning due to closing on a…read morehome and briefly went elsewhere, but never again! Dr. Martin is terrific and everyone is friendly here. They even adjusted the crown I had done at Aspen because my bite was off and it hurt, and that was awesome! I won't ever go anywhere else again because they really take great care of you, and make sure to schedule you for cleanings and give you appointment reminder cards regularly, which is something Aspen Dental was pretty lazy with. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a great dental practice in the Tucson area, you won't be disappointed.

I want to give them 5/5 because they are professional, clean, kind. I also wanted to give them a…read more2/5 because 1) even though all of the assistants were kind, their job as the suction and water application is very important and can actually make or break an experience and I didn't enjoy being gagged, poked unnecessarily, and having to swallow the dirty dental water with chemical/tooth fragments in it and 2) my care plan changed mid second appointment under nitrus so they had to oxygenate me for my signature and then give me nitrus again to complete the work and the additional tooth. 3) I was never actually shown my xrays while they discussed the care plan and I think some attention to detail might have avoided the reason I am ultimately unhappy. My first visit I was told we would be working on 4 teeth and watching one, and we would be separating those into two visits. They did the bottom teeth on the first visit, where I expressed concern about my top retainer not fitting me when they do the work at the next visit. They told me not to worry and that it would be fine, just to bring the retainer so we could make sure it fit correctly. They also said they can do retainers and said they could straighten my bottom teeth for me (I have a permanent retainer there but they are only slightly crooked and I wasn't asking about that). I was in the chair probably 3.5 hours for both visits. When I showed up for the second visit - I reminded him about my retainer and that I brought it in, he said okay, no worries we will try that at the end to make sure it fits correctly and that they could make it fit if it didn't. They got me started on nitrus and were tinkering in there for a while and then he said alright so we actually need to do this other tooth that we were only watching but you can come back for that and now we're gonna be watching this other (random) tooth too. Unfortunately, this made me a bit skeptical because I don't understand with the x-rays and the full inspection that took HOURS the first time, why we wouldn't be aware of this. This conversation all took place while I was already on nitrus and they'd been working in my mouth a while. They said we have to bring you off the nitrus to get your signature to do the other tooth if that's what you want to do. I said fine, I wasn't really wanting to come back so soon, do it. I wasn't wanting to do a third appointment after they said I'd be doing two and not have to come back a while. The cost of that would obviously go up to pay for a repeat of the nitrus and whatever else. They had me sign the paper and put me back on nitrus. Then when it was finished he asked how my teeth felt, I said good I think (they had to give me more of the numbing agent because I was feeling again and so I couldn't feel much of anything until the very next day around noon, almost a whole day later) but that I just wanted to make sure my retainer fit because it cost me a lot to get them this way. He said ok grab it and we'll try it on but followed up with there's no guarantee it's going to fit. WHAAT... no. That was literally the opposite of what had been said. I was told to bring it, so that we could ensure it fit. So yeah, I wanted to love this office and ive been telling everyone to go and that they're awesome but upon writing the review I think the niceness and cleanliness gave them more credit than maybe they deserved. That said, I'd have been more upset if they'd made me come back later but I also think they are inconsistent with what my needs are and left me feeling like it was a used car salesmen type business. Everything with my teeth feels healthy and good. But my retainer doesn't fit how it should and I didn't like the change of tone from it will fit to it might not and that's just the way it is, but we can make you another one and fix your teeth again.. $$ and also adding more teeth in to work on that weren't mentioned at the original care plan. Including a new tooth to "watch" when the one they said they were watching was one they wanted to fix after all. This was not a terrible experience, just could have been better. For improvement, I recommend more training for the assistants, and more consistency in the care plan for the doctor I saw. This office was beautifully maintained, clean and comfortable.

Wondeful experience! Te Dentist, oral surgon, hygienist and entire staff are exceptional!!read more

I'm extremely disappointed with this office, especially after seeing the positive reviews. I'm a…read moremedical provider, and my sister is an experienced registered dental hygienist (RDH), so I'm familiar with routine preventive dental care. I'm young, have no major dental concerns, and consistently get cleanings every six months. I went in expecting a routine new-patient exam and cleaning. Instead, I was told I needed deep cleanings on three full quadrants plus a localized area, which is not consistent with my periodontal measurements and overall healthy bone levels. My upper arch had probing depths of only 4 mm at most, yet deep cleaning was recommended. On the lower arch, only 2-3 teeth had 5 mm pockets, yet full-quadrant deep cleaning was recommended rather than localized treatment. I was also concerned that my insurance would likely deny much of this treatment because I did not appear to meet the criteria, potentially leaving me responsible for the full cost. I was then presented with numerous additional charges for irrigation, bacterial decontamination, local anesthetic, oral hygiene instructions, and four intraoral photographs. These fees were not clearly explained to me beforehand. My RDH sister was particularly shocked by the separate charges for local anesthetic, intraoral photos, and oral hygiene instructions. She has years of experience in dentistry and told me she has never seen these services billed separately in this manner. What concerned me most was the impression that additional services were being recommended and billed beyond what I felt was necessary. I came in for a routine cleaning and left with a long list of expensive procedures--and I wasn't even given a routine cleaning that day after I requested one after deep cleaning was advised. I was also advised to return for cleanings every three months after completing the recommended deep cleanings. After reviewing everything with my sister, who has performed countless cleanings on myself and others throughout her career, her advice was simple: do not go back to this office. Afterward, I went back and read through the reviews and was surprised to find another young patient describing an experience very similar to mine, which made me even more concerned. Based on my experience and my sister's professional perspective, I strongly recommend getting a second opinion before agreeing to extensive treatment at this office. I left feeling that the focus was more on recommending additional procedures and maximizing insurance billing than on providing the honest, appropriate preventive care I came in for.
