This was by far the absolute worst dental office that I have ever been to. If you've ever watched…read morethe Stepford Wives then going to this dental office will give you flash backs. The entire staff speaks in this exceedingly nice tone, but grumbles under their breath especially the front desk office manager. She has a horrible attitude. The doctor himself, Dr. Allegretti, could give a rats behind about your teeth. All he cares about is how much money he could make off of you. He's rude when you question what he suggests for your teeth. A few people that I spoke with felt the same way about him and never went back after their first procedure. The only thing that was nice was all of the free tolietry in the bathroom. But who needs that after you just dropped $500 for a procedure that you didn't even need.

Dr. Allegretti, who has moved his practice to Provincetown, MA since 2007, is by far the BEST…read moredental office I've ever been to. Pros: 1.) Teaching dentist He explains everything about what is going on with your teeth, and is always willing to discuss your options with you. He takes the time you need to decide. No pressure or on-the-spot decisions. 2.) Technology and hygiene The technology and hygiene in this office is exceptional. I've moved from the area and have yet to find as good a practice. All-white, mercury- and metal-free fillings and crowns that are stronger than amalgam. Everything is clean, the technology is cutting edge, and the doctor takes the time to ensure your oral hygiene throughout your procedure is impeccable (rubber dams for all possible fillings). This kind of attention is rare because it makes the job take longer -- so, the doctor can make less money on you (more time per appointment = fewer appointments per day). 3.) Skilled doctor This is a dentist who is really an artist. All of the work he did on my teeth was beautiful and has stayed so (11 fillings, 18 months ago, you'd never know it). I've seen dentists since who didn't even realize I had all of those fillings until they x-rayed, they were done so well. Really high level of expertise and skill. 4.) Attentive staff that makes sure you are Pain-Free A completely painless experience. Dr. Allegretti and his dental assistant (always has one) ensures that you are comfortable throughout your visit. Totally numb. They really pay attention to your comfort level. Before I saw Dr. Allegretti, I thought I had a good dentist. I never had dental anxiety. I went for yearly checkups and regular cleanings every six months. So I'm not one of these people who was always afraid of the dentist, and didn't go. I'm one of the people who has ALWAYS gone. Even when I moved to the Cape, I still saw the same guy I'd always seen, every six months or so when I went home to see family. I started seeing Allegretti because I needed a second opinion on a tooth whose root canal was unsuccessful. I didn't know if I had cracked the tooth or what, so a friend recommended giving him a try (that friend was a former dental-anxiety person whose experience with Dr. Allegretti improved the way he felt about dentists). Wow what a difference! Besides all the things I already wrote, which stood out in stark contrast to my previous experience, I discovered that because my old dentist had always used the probe (the metal hook thing) to test for cavities, he had missed a bunch. Dr. Allegretti uses this tool to test for cavities that is basically a bone density scan. It's so precise. What I didn't know about cavities is that they very often start under the surface of your teeth, underneath the enamel, and can't be confirmed with the probe until they've come up to the surface so to speak, and are quite large. If you catch them early, they're little and not a big deal. Many of my little cavities were filled for much less money than fillings usually cost -- I mean in the $100-200 range -- because they weren't that bad yet. I will never see another dentist that doesn't use that tool. Even if you are happy with your current dentist, if you are anywhere near Dr. Allegretti I would give him a try for your next regular checkup and cleaning. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

I'm a huge baby when it comes to getting something done to my teeth. I only have one cavity, and my…read moredental life has been pretty insignificant. I go in for cleanings and come out with a toothbrush. I had spaghetti and cracked my tooth on a red pepper seed ( the shaker kind). I go to my dentist, whom I love (Dr. Erik Fox), and he gives me a root canal. This is the root canal from hell (three sessions), but he handles it, and everything seems to be going well until...I develop a blister on my gum. Dr. Erik sent me to Northern Virginia Oral, Maxillofacial, and Implant Surgery and promised they would take good care of me. He wasn't wrong. Did I mention I'm a crybaby? LOL! During the consultation, I started crying when they told me what was going to happen. Just tears leaking out of my eyes, but they were so kind to me. Dr. Aslam assured me that it was ok. When people had traumatic episodes with dentists when they were younger (I did), they're often really scared. He promised everything would be ok..and it was. I went in, and they let my husband come back with me and hold my hand. After the needle went in for the anesthesia, I remember nothing except going to the spice markets in Marakesh...that's a wild dream, right? But not a bad one. When I woke up, they gave me a care package to take home and helped my husband get me into the car after giving him aftercare instructions. The care package had my first two doses of pain medication, pear-flavored chapstick for my lips, a barf bag (just in case), tons of gauze, and instructions on how to take care of the wound. I was thrilled that they not only got the tooth out but could do the bone graft and implant placement all at once. From the reception area people (Hi Amber!) to Dr Aslam and the nurses, I felt I was in good hands. They were understanding about my anxiety and never belittled it. They LITERALLY held my hand through the experience. I would definitely recommend them.

My Experience With This Practice…read more Dr. Amir was the surgeon who performed my wisdom tooth procedure. I had all four of my wisdom teeth scheduled to be removed at this practice. I paid for all four extractions, and my insurance was also billed for all four. I also paid the required copay for each tooth. I underwent general anesthesia and went through the recovery and pain believing that all four teeth had been removed. After the procedure, I was told by Dr. Amir and the staff that the procedure had been completed. At my follow-up appointment, I was again led to believe that everything had been taken care of. Later, I visited my general dentist, who took X-rays and informed me that one of my wisdom teeth was still present and had not been removed. I returned to the practice and brought this to Dr. Amir's attention. He apologized and asked me to contact the staff regarding a resolution. After contacting the staff, I was reimbursed only the $136 copay associated with the tooth that had not been removed. What makes this even more frustrating is that because of this mishap, I now have to go through another extraction and another round of recovery, pain, and inconvenience--something I should not have had to go through if the procedure had been completed correctly the first time. My concern is that I was charged for a procedure that was not fully performed, my insurance was billed for all four teeth, and I was not informed that one tooth remained until my general dentist discovered it through X-rays. I am extremely disappointed with how this was handled, particularly because I underwent general anesthesia and the risks and recovery associated with the procedure based on the understanding that all four teeth were being removed

I have been a patient of Dr. Ghannam for a number of years now. I wish to express my sincerest…read morethanks and appreciation for the superb level of service and treatment provided to me each time I am there in his office. One of my motos is if you always treat people like family you can never go wrong. To me when I feel that a doctor/dentist truly care about my health or dental needs, it bills a closer relationship with me as a clients. This kind of treatment will keep clients coming back and referring new potentual clients to his office. Dr. Ghannam and his staff have cultivated a family approach to dentistry that shows up in every corner of his approach to this profession. I feel like he wouldn't recommend anything to me that he wouldn't do for himself or his family. He has always tried to put me at ease by explaining the procedures and answering my many questions over the years. His tecniques shows a well trained young dentist, but his ability to communicate with me proved wisdom far beyond his age. I have spent my intire life in many a dentist chair because having a beautiful smile has always been one of the most important things I could do for my health & my professional appearance. With that being said I am someone who has always been extremely nervous when it comes to sitting in that chair, but the level of care he and his staff have provided for me in his office to ensure my comfort each time I am there is truly extraodinary .He will always have my sincere gratitude and appreciation.

If that's the case, why did the front desk tell us that its okay to come back later to pick her up?! If they told us about this while we were at the office, we could have rearranged our plan instead of having our child stay there doing nothing until we come back.

My daughter's orthdontic work needed a prior authorization from the insurance company and when we left her appointment in late November, I was told that they would submit everything and to wait 4 weeks. I waited beyond four weeks and after I was put on hold for a ridiculous length of time and finally I hung up and called my insurance company to find out why no progress had been made. Surprise, surprise, they only send two pictures (instead of the 5 that were needed) with no statement of medical necessity. Of course it was denied and when I called the office back and spoke with Jamilla she informed me that it was not her job to check and see if a prior auth was denied, that she was not going to resubmit it because, "prior auths are always denied." I have experienced nothing but sheer unprofessionalism and slackjawed attitudes from the staff in this office and I have decided to take my daughter elsewhere. My advice to anyone seeking orthodontic treatment, this is not the place to go.
