I recently came to Harrison Dental for a (free) second opinion on a horrible toothache. They were…read morewelcoming and got me in within 2 hours of my phone call. Dr. Osterkamp was able to determine an infection that the previous dentist missed, and prescribed medication to treat the problem and alleviate my pain. I opted to pay $40 to get a complete exam, X-rays, & cleaning. Harrison Dental squeezed me into their packed schedule with a visiting oral surgeon, so that I could have the problem tooth removed without delay, and without having to go to another location. Everything was explained to me along the way, and together we are figuring out a treatment plan so that I don't have any more painful emergencies. The hygienist (Randy) was very kind and thoroughly explained everything he was doing during my cleaning. In fact, he told me interesting things about teeth, gums & dental hygiene that I had never had explained to me before! He was patient & gentle & I immediately rebooked my next cleaning so long as he was the one doing it. Harrison Dental offers an amazing in-house dental plan that covers preventive care & X-rays as well as any dental insurance would, and even gives you 20% off major work. Since I was a child, going to the dentist has resulted in bad news, costly work, pain & anxiety. Not to mention, I'm always embarrassed to go to the dentist because my teeth are in such bad shape & I'm so certain I'm the worst mouth of teeth they've ever seen. But the entire Harrison staff has been nothing but kind and welcoming to me and never once have they recoiled in horror at the sight of my teeth. I trust them and would happily recommend them to ANYONE for ANY REASON, from minor to major dental concerns.

Don't waste your time. I was able to get an appointment this last Monday for a cleaning. I was a…read morenew patient so I expected the appointment would take some time, but I wasn't expecting not to have my teeth cleaned. I was taken back to the chair where I received X-rays and they were discussed with me. The Dentist was very nice. Then I was transferred to the 20- something year old hygienist. I was taught how to brush my teeth, what gum to chew, why I should use a Water Pic, what electronic toothbrush I should use, what floss to use and how proper oral hygiene would help my blood pressure. I felt like I was at a presentation for a timeshare. But still no teeth cleaning. Odd for the fact I was there for over an hour and a half. Things started to get real when the hygienist informed me "when I come back for a deep cleaning", I will feel much better about my teeth. I clarified that no cleaning would occur during my visit and I was a bit shocked. I ended up leaving after an hour and fifty minutes with nothing being done. No cleaning. That was the entire reason for the appointment. This was unbelievable. I called the dentist on my way home to clarify what had occurred. The dentist essentially said it's better to not have my teeth cleaned until it's a deep cleaning. This is the exact opposite of what has occurred my entire life. Normally it's a cleaning then you're told to get a deep cleaning. At least it a start. My frustration is the Dentist/hygienist assumed that I have all the time in my life to come back at their will. I work 60 to 80 hours a week and I'm not off during their business hours. I was able to squeeze in on a Monday that was a day off for me. I made this known at the time of my appointment and during the visit itself. Apparently they don't listen. They just figure that everyone will just sit happily in the chair and go with whatever they say. They wasted my entire afternoon and nothing was accomplished.
