Our entire family has been seeing Dr. Resnick and his amazing staff since 2012, and we couldn't be…read morehappier with the care we've received over the years. My family has had just about every service imaginable here--from braces, retainers, whitening treatments, mouthguards, and sleep appliances to cleanings, fillings, and advanced imaging. Every experience has been professional, friendly, and top-notch. This truly is a wonderful practice that makes you feel like family. On my most recent visit, Kathy took care of my cleaning, and she was fantastic. She was thorough, gentle, and incredibly knowledgeable. My teeth have honestly never felt so clean! If you're looking for a dental office that combines exceptional care, modern technology, and a genuinely caring staff, I highly recommend Dr. Resnick and his team. We've trusted them with our family's dental health for over a decade, and they continue to exceed our expectations.

Best dentist and dental practice! I totally appreciate that…read moredental cleaning appts almost always start on-time (they don't overbook and make you wait). Also - the dental hygienists are thorough yet gentle. They never snap the floss against your gums (if you get this - you get this). Never thought I'd say this - I actually look forward to my dental cleanings, thanks to the great team at Just Smiles.

Josh is the best dentist in Scottsdale hands down…read more He not only did a thorough check up, but he did a great job explaining everything to me in a way that I could understand. He was honest and real with me, as opposed past dentists I've had who wanted to take all my money. The practice is great, and everyone was super friendly. I highly recommend this to anyone in Scottsdale looking for great dentistry. 5 out 5 stars!

ONLY READ THIS IF YOU TAKE THESE REVIEWS SERIOUSLY…read more I just had an incredibly unique experience with Dr. Steinberg... If you're anything like me then you have a genuine fear of shots, getting my teeth drilled on and being told I need to floss-more. When I initially met Dr. Steinberg I was a bit skeptical that he would be like every other dentist, who seems to care more about the paycheck then the actual patient's health or well-being. Fortunately this was not at all the case. Josh exhibited a thorough understanding of dentistry and what needed to be done. I asked to many questions to which he had well thought out, precise and logic answers. I informed him that I was incredibly sensitive to drilling and requested that he take special considerations while working on my teeth... I'm so happy with my experience because he did exactly that. Dr. Steinberg let me know what he was going to do before doing it and regularly checked on me to ensure that I was OK. When it came time for me to receive the shots he walked me through each process step-by-step and allowed me to feel comfortable even though I was incredibly nervous. During the main stages of drilling Dr. Steinberg remained consistent and ensured that I was comfortable the entire time. He exhibited a great skill set with everything he was doing, primarily because it didn't feel like I dental work done once I left his office. As someone who takes his teeth very seriously I genuinely could not of asked for a better experience with Dr. Steinberg. I'm fortunate to have a network of friends that I will be the first to recommend Dr. Steinberg to.

We moved to Scottsdale about six or seven years ago. My wife did a ton of research before picking a…read moredentist and she chose S&L with Dr. David Ngo. I went with a different place at first because it was closer to where we were living. Well, that turned out to be a mistake. I ended up having a bad experience there and finally switched to S&L. Dr. Ngo and his team fixed everything the other dentist had messed up. Right away I knew my wife had been right all along. I've been going to S&L for four years now and they really are the best dental office I've ever been to. Dr. Ngo has removed all my old metal fillings and replaced them with modern ones, plus he's done a couple of crowns for me. Everything looks and feels great. My wife has also been extremely happy with all the work he's done for her too. I'm almost 55 and I've seen a bunch of top-rated, highly recommended dentists over the years, both here in the US and a couple in Mexico. Nothing else comes close. One thing I have to mention is how good Dr. Ngo is with people who hate dental visits or get nervous about pain. His work is excellent, but it's the way he takes care of you that makes the biggest difference. For example, the way he does Novocaine shots is unbelievable. You barely feel it at all. Every dentist out there should learn his technique. With all that said, I do think the front office experience could be better. If the customer service up front matched Dr. David's clearly caring vibe, it would be 100% perfect. If you're looking for a truly professional dentist who gives five-star care and service, this is the place. Dr. David Ngo at S&L is the only one I would recommend without any hesitation.

I chose this dentist because of all the amazing reviews, and so I thought I'd detail my experience…read morebecause it wasn't as perfect as the reviews make it seem. They seem very knowledgable and seem to know what they're doing when it comes to dentistry, but my concerns are more in the administration side of things. I changed jobs earlier this year and got new insurance with a common major insurance provider, and I needed to get a procedure done. I asked them what the procedure would cost and they gave me a quote, which was already expensive, and I paid that at the time of service. However, when I came in for a routine cleaning 6 months later, they said the insurance "didn't pay as much as they thought" and stuck me with MORE THAN DOUBLE their original quote. I looked into the insurance claim and called the insurance company myself, and the insurance company paid exactly what was according to their billing schedule. There were no surprises. I think the office knew (or should have known, because they're the professionals and this is what they do) that this would happen, and they dishonestly gave me a lower quote, did the service, and then stuck me with the even more expensive bill (but to their credit, they did give me a lower price than what they billed to insurance, but it was still VERY expensive that I was not prepared for). Additionally, I distinctly recall the procedure treated four teeth, but then on the bill and insurance claim, they say they treated six. Unfortunately, I don't really know how to argue this, especially because it happened so long ago. I suspect they didn't contact me about this issue earlier for this exact reason. Again, dishonest. Another concern with this dentist is that it's unprofessional that they use Zelle to get around credit/debit card transaction fees. Every merchant has to deal with card transaction fees, they shouldn't be up-charging that cost and they shouldn't be using Zelle, which is supposed to just be a peer-to-peer payment network. Lastly, as much as I love dogs, I don't think it's hygienic that they keep a dog in their office. In all, I started off loving this dentist, and very disappointed that they turned out to be this unprofessional and dishonest. I'm sad I'll have to go elsewhere from now on.

They are listed as a periodontist on multiple healthcare websites, which is why I scheduled an…read moreappointment--I specifically needed a periodontist. After going through all the intake paperwork and providing my insurance information, the dentist then told me he was only a general dentist and could not help with the treatment I needed. That would have been frustrating enough, but they still charged both me and my insurance a total of $250 ($50 copay and $200 insurance payment) for a visit that provided no actual care or solution. When I raised the issue, their response was that they "used to have a periodontist, but he left years ago," and that they cannot control what appears on healthcare websites. While that may be true, they can absolutely control being honest when a patient clearly states the type of specialist they need. Instead, they allowed the appointment to proceed, then charged for a service they knew they could not provide. Very disappointing experience.

I want to start by saying this is the BEST dentist office I have ever been to. They really value…read morequality service, care, and comfort. I came in for a routine cleaning and wanted to discuss options for getting my crowns replaced. Dr. Kovacik was helpful and thorough. He referred me to a great endodontist to confirm my old root canals were still holding up before we proceeded with crowns. Good thing we did because we did need to redo one. I came back a week later for temporary crowns (which looked amazing), then two weeks after that we put my permanent crowns on. I have my wedding coming up this weekend and I'm elated that we were able to get all this work done beforehand. I have the most beautiful smile and so much gratitude for the Kind Family Dentistry Team. Dr. Kovacik does impeccable work, all of the hygienists are knowledgeable and kind, and Beth at the front desk makes my day, she is so positive and welcoming. I highly recommend this dentist office if you are looking for a new one.

Dr. Claire Anderson, DMD, MS…read more There are no words that can fully express how grateful I am for what you have done for me, and the support of your skilled staff. After eight months of consultations with eight different Endodontist, every recommendation was the same: extract the tooth. No one was willing to attempt saving my tooth. Then I found you. From our first appointment, your confidence, expertise, and willingness to take on a case that others had given up on, gave me HOPE. You had a clear plan, explained every step of the procedure, and made sure I understood exactly what to expect. Your skill and compassion made all the difference. Using advanced technology, including Gentle Wave, you successfully removed the two broken files that had been left in my root canal by a previous Endodontist and corrected a problem that so many others believed couldn't be fixed. Most importantly, you saved my tooth. What you accomplished has been truly life-changing for me. Your dedication to your patients, your willingness to attempt a difficult challenge, and your extraordinary expertise deserve the highest recognition.. Thank you for believing my tooth was worth saving when so many others did not. Thank you for your exceptional care, your courage, and your commitment to excellence. I will always be grateful for the gift you have given me. With heartfelt appreciation, Carol Hartman

First off, let me start by saying I avoided seeing a dentist for over 40 years due to childhood…read moreissues. So having to see an Endodontist was out of my vocabulary. However, from the moment I walked into this practice, I was met with amazing hospitality, care and respect! All in all, I wound up needing 5 root canals, 3 new and 2 retreats, and each experience was amazingly pain free (minus the initial injection to numb the area-ouch)..Dr Hope does a fantastic job in cleaning and performing the root canals, cares about your well-being and makes sure you remain comfortable while performing outstanding service! Plus, you will receive a follow-up call the next business day to make sure your experience and pain levels were taken care of properly. I will add that after leaving their office after treatment, I never needed any additional pain meds or relief. I would not hesitate to return to Hope Endodontics should I need further treatment.

It had been a few years since I had seen a dentist due to some difficult past experiences with my previous provider. I was honestly nervous going in because I worried I would be judged for not taking the best care of my oral health. Taylor completely put those worries to rest and made me feel welcomed and comfortable throughout my visit. Dr. Dena Khoury Myers was exceptional as well. She took the time to explain my treatment options and even recommended alternative treatments, including peptides, to help prevent cavities. I absolutely love that Pearl Dental is a family owned and operated office. Everyone made me feel genuinely cared for, and I never felt like I was being pressured or overcharged for treatment. I'm so glad I found Pearl Dental and will definitely continue using them for all of my future dental needs. Highly recommend!

My experience at this office was disappointing, particularly when it came to feeling heard as a…read morepatient. I was anxious about preserving my natural tooth structure during a cavity treatment. I expressed that concern because I wanted to understand what was necessary and how the dentist would determine what tooth structure needed to be removed. Unfortunately, the interaction left me feeling uncomfortable asking questions and uncertain about why the preparation needed to be enlarged. In retrospect, I recognize that my questions may have come across as questioning the dentist's competence, and that was never my intention. I was an anxious patient trying to understand an irreversible procedure. I can accept that my concerns may not have come across exactly as I intended, but I also believe patients should be able to express anxiety and ask questions without being made to feel that they have challenged their provider's credibility. What I want from a dental office is straightforward: clear explanations, respectful communication, and the feeling that I can be an active participant in my own care. Instead, I left feeling less comfortable and less reassured than when I arrived. With all due respect, I won't be back.
