I felt uncomfortable dealing with the staff from the start. I should have just walked out after getting that feeling. I have contacted other smaller dentistry practices in the area, looking for a good fit and a dentist and staff who will listen to me and avoid high-pressure sales tactics. There also seems to be a lot of bait-and-switch pricing. Stay away!

My teenage daughter, then a junior in high school, needed emergency dental care on the trickiest of…read moredays. It was a day not only three shy of her departing for a week-long school trip abroad that she'd been working toward and paying for since she was a freshman; but a day when, I am embarrassed to say that, our state insurance had lapsed. She woke up in severe pain and tears, revealing to us she'd been hiding the issue for fear it would nullify her trip. Morganton Park Dental Care took her at the last minute for examination and x-rays when no one else would; got her an additional, local, same-day, root canal appointment when no one else would see her; and took her again for the follow-up potion of the whole procedure before she left on a plane. It was a process that involved a dentist coming in on her day off; us coming in outside of posted hours; scheduling that their internet interface would not allow; answering their phones which no one else in the area had for the ceaseless hours I'd been trying; and a verbalized list of available discounts and credit options from disparate sources that could help us with the bill. Having called and left messages for every dentist I could find in a two-hour driving radius, to this day, though Morganton Park Dental Care made sure it would no longer be necessary, just one, ONE, of those other dentists has called me back. That dentist's office did so 20 days later and offered an "emergency" appointment 3.5 months thereafter. I like Morganton Park because of how they treated us, by comparison. Not for nothing, it also warrants mention that while our insurance had been in good standing, (going back to before Morganton Park had opened) my daughter's existing appointments to address her cavities at another establishment, the only area establishment willing to accept a minor, her age, with our coverage, had previously insisted upon doing so over four appointments, one per quadrant of her teeth, sessions that they'd scheduled "as close together as they could." That meant sessions to fill her known cavities, each on the books eight months apart from the other and us remaining far down on a constant waiting list for happenstance cancelations. Shorthand...the absolute best anyone in the Aberdeen/Southern Pines/Pinehurst area could do, with coverage, was to allow select cavities to age more than two years without attention and fully ensure my daughter would require a root canal at age 16. Morganton Park immediately filled her other cavities when she got back from her trip. Expensive? Yes, but no moreso than anywhere else. I shouldn't have to say it's "funny" how Morganton Park's best did all this and didn't even require the coverage. Look, the brief lapse in insurance is completely on me. Hiding her pain until it was too late? Also on me. Not remembering or checking how fast a cavity can get out of control? Still me. Though I needed to listen to what the professionals were telling me, schedule-wise and safety-wise, I don't blame any of the dentists or office workers previous to Morganton Park. I'm sure their professionalism is beyond reproach and therefore at least somewhat unable to manage my personal failures. Finding fault is not what this post is about. But in a seemingly inescapable local business culture focused on chiefly dental WORK, it doesn't seem so much of a stretch for me to characterize Morganton Park's splendid handling of my situation as what we used to call it, dental CARE.

The hygienist and front desk staff were incredibly kind, patient, and accommodating, and I truly appreciated how thoroughly they answered all of my questions. Unfortunately, during my third appointment, Dr. Pratt rushed into the room and stayed for no more than two minutes. Most of that time was spent telling me that my insurance would be billed and to make sure that "gets taken care of." There was little to no interaction regarding my actual care. This experience was extremely disappointing and made it clear that the dentist had little interest in genuinely engaging with or caring for his patients.

I went to this Dentist in SOUTHERN PINES, NC for tooth pain and sensitivity. I am Retired US Army…read moreand 100% Disabled Veteran. We have Dental Insurance that we pay for. She took x rays and said I needed a Root Canal on that tooth. She cut my crown (which was pretty new within a couple years) in half to remove it so they could charge me for a brand new crown (Cha Ching). So after the root canal and they simply put on a Temp Crown and said the new Permanent one would take 2 weeks. (Alot of Dentist's give Permanent crowns same day now). They then told me with our Dental Insurance my part of EVERYTHING would be like $970. I paid and went home, returned 2 weeks later to get my Permanent crown. They removed the Temp and cemented in my Permanent with NO adjustments needed. (As I stated the crown she cut off was fairly new). Then upfront the person at the desk proceeded to tell me and she was mumbling, making it hard for me to hear that our Insurance DID NOT pay for "Core Buildup" and I owed $525, WHAT? I was no happy to say the least as I was told before that the $970 would cover all my part? I paid but VERY unhappy and Displeased. I went home and verified through my Insurance and inquired about this "Core Buildup"? Seems that is something ONLY needed if the tooth getting the crown is damaged or cracked in order for the crown to be placed. Mine needed NONE of that and they DID NONE of that, so they committed Dental Insurance FRAUD and when the Insurance company suspected that, they denied it, so they FRAUDED me with the charges. STAY AWAY, this dentist ONLY cares about moving your hard earned money into her pockets and will utilize false charges to do so. That's the same as Medicare or Health Insurance Fraud. Terrible. A good dentist should be able to do a Root Canal through the crown, so you don't have to pay for a new one.
