    I have been going to Buford Family Dental for the past 4 years for checkups and cleanings. I…read morealways feel welcome and treated like a valued client. But then we moved and I decided to give another "highly reviewed" dentist a try. Yes, the lobby/waiting area was a little fancier with nicer furniture and the dentists (a husband and wife team) had impressive pedigrees, but the appeal stopped the moment I sat down in the chair for an examination. I felt like a stranger and that I was distracting them from more important business. They talked with the hygienist behind my back (literally) as I could not see what they were looking at and I walked away feeling a lack of confidence in their ability to match the service I was used to. Buford Family Dental is transparent and takes time to both show on screen and explain in layman's terms, any dental concerns as well as recommended course of action to remedy the concern. All this is to say that I am back at Buford Family Dental. The confidence I have in both Dr Patel and Dr Kim as well as their staff is worth the drive for the service provided Buford Family Dental. Today I had a root canal on one tooth and a tooth extraction and bone graph (prep for a crown) on another tooth. 4 hours later, with the novocaine worn off, I sit with no pain and satisfied with a procedure done as well as any Endodontists or oral surgeon could have performed. I highly recommend Buford Family Dental for my family and friends.

Dr. Choi is actually amazing, but the front office will make sure that I never get in to see him. MONTHS! I've spent SEVERAL MONTHS getting rescheduled for my cleaning. The last attempt was over two months ago via an automated system, and today was the soonest they could see me. Mere minutes before my appointment, and, yep, you guessed it, they call me to reschedule AGAIN! This time, it's over a note they need from my Dr. because of a medical event that I had six months ago. During the many months of rescheduling, they HAD THIS INFORMATION, but only decided to act on it ten minutes before my appointment, while I'm sitting in traffic, having taken yet another partial day off of work! They recommended I get my teeth cleaned four times a year, but they won't actually see me that often. I'm three cleanings past due. Again, my dentist is awesome. I really like him. I guess I'll never get to see him again, though? Does anyone have a suggestion for a good dentist that actually wants my business?

I schedule the appointment with no hassle and they did the exam and gave me multiple options to get me fix back to normal. I am so exited that I found Lanier Family Dentistry and I definitely know who's going to be taking care of me now. Also the hygienist Nadya R. also did an outstanding job cleaning all those stains off. Thank you guys and will definitely recommend them to someone who is looking for good dentist as I was.

But the staff at this practice is so incredibly personable, professional and pleasant you can't help but feel like they're extended family! Dr Alla Brown is the perfect combination of technical dental skills AND artistry with her cosmetic procedures. She explains all the procedures clearly, their benefits and drawbacks as well as the costs. When my decade old implant started failing, she noticed it and referred me to the best dental surgeon in the area. She also makes it a point to match your teeth shade color perfectly- giving you the very best in a movie star smile. If you are considering any type of dental cosmetic procedure, she is the dentist to see north of Jimmy Carter Blvd! Dr Brown is very friendly and her office is modern and nicely decorated. It is a very nice place to come and get your teeth up to speed. Can't say enough nice things about this practice, this dentist or this staff.

    After having no cavities in over 40 years, I went to this practice and they said I needed 19…read morefillings. They took photos of my teeth and showed them to me on a large monitor to point out where I had tooth decay. Since there were so many "cavities" they divided the work into two appointments. The first appointment was very uncomfortable, the dentist seemed rushed and didn't want me to swallow as often as I needed to. I was sick with a sinus infection and tried to cancel the 2nd appointment on the Friday before a Tuesday appointment over a holiday weekend. They were very aggressive about wanting to charge me for the appointment. I decided to get a second opinion and actually got two other dentists to look at the photos and x-rays and they both said the so-called cavities were only stains and natural wear on the teeth and did not need treatment. Sadly, I had already paid for over $2K in unneeded and uncomfortable dental work.

    YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED! I've been 100% satisfied with Magnolia…read moreRidge Dental since Day 1. From the moment I became a patient, the entire team has treated me like I'm their only customer. They're flexible with scheduling, always accommodating, and genuinely care. In stark contrast, I had one of the worst experiences of my life at Dr. Curington's office at the North Atlanta Center for Cosmetic & Implant Dentistry. I got sick and rescheduled an appointment--something most offices understand. But not here. I then noticed I was being overcharged for a crown procedure and decided to cancel altogether. That's when things got ugly. I was hit with a $4,200 "cancellation fee" for a service I never received. Yes, $4,200. And then they sent that outrageous bill to collections, deliberately damaging my credit. All for being sick and standing up for myself. At first, Dr. Curington comes across as warm and friendly, but that quickly fades if you question a service or refuse a recommendation. Based on what I've read in other reviews since, I'm not the only one who's experienced this kind of treatment. In my opinion, her concern is not your care--it's your money. Her staff reflects this as well, using pressure tactics and intimidation that no patient should ever deal with. After that nightmare, Magnolia Ridge Dental stepped up in a big way. Even though Dr. Curington refused to release my recent X-rays, Magnolia welcomed me, got me in immediately, and provided top-tier care--at a fraction of the cost. I truly cannot thank them enough. To anyone considering Dr. Curington's office: RUN AND DON'T LOOK BACK. And to Magnolia Ridge: thank you for restoring my trust in dental care.

I've received nothing but excellent care the entire time. I've also been accommodated financially on more than one occasion when payment at the time of my visit would have presented a hardship. Thanks to our we-refuse-to-pay-for-that insurance providers and the materials and manufacturing side of dentistry, dental care of any kind is ridiculously expensive, we all know that. But I have never felt taken advantage of, duped into more treatment than I needed, or otherwise sucked in to something I would later regret. Dr. Carter had huge shoes to fill when he came. Change is always hard, but I have trusted him to take over where Dr. Davis left off and have not been disappointed. The practice has worked very closely with my periodontist, Dr. George Quintero, for the same 18-year period such that oral treatment I have received has been second to none. I am 62 and have every confidence that heeding my doctors' advice and recommendations will assure that I am not eating baby food from a jar as I enter old age in the next decade or two!

    My husband had an AMAZING experience!!…read more See his comments below: Short answer: On a scale 1 to 10 the finished product was a 14! Dr. Murray is the BEST dentist I've ever seen! Long answer: In any legitimate trade there are 3 levels of performance - professionals, experts, and masters. Dr. Murray is definitely a master at her craft and the best dentist I've encountered in 30 years and 7 states. Let's put it this way, when it comes to cosmetic dentistry, I would fly across the country to have her do the work because... 1. It's your face. 2. It needs to be the best the first time, so I'd rather be inconvenienced one time then going back to mend a professional's work. The tooth is the front left incisor so it's front and center every time you talk. I chipped it when I was 20 and the work was very good, however by the time I was 45 I chipped it again and I went through two other dentists who are professionals but they just couldn't get Humpty Dumpty back together. It kept chipping and the frustration kept growing until Dr. Murray stepped in. The fit-and-finish is perfect, you can't tell AT ALL, and the best part is she made it twice as thick and virtually bulletproof. I'm extremely confident to bite down and I can't say enough. In your mind you have the job you want done but you know it probably won't happen because you shoot extra high....and she hit that summit and surpassed it! The reason I labor the long answer is because that's what I like to read when I'm researching. Telling me that somebody did a "super job" isn't enough. And excellence should always get the notoriety it deserves.
