Very Disappointing Experience - Lack of Transparency and Poor Communication…read more I visited this clinic today for my second periodic evaluation, which should have been covered under the in-house insurance plan I purchased from them (which includes two free visits). However, I was shocked to be charged $262 today without any prior notice. They claimed that because I used a different insurance for a tooth removal at another visit, my in-house insurance was void. This was never communicated to me--neither when I used the other insurance nor at the start of today's visit. At no point did anyone inform me that I would be charged or that my plan was no longer valid. This lack of transparency and failure to communicate important information is unacceptable. Patients deserve to be clearly informed about their benefits and any potential charges before services are rendered. I feel misled and extremely disappointed with the way this was handled. I will not be returning and cannot recommend this practice to others.

After much research online, I…read morefound Bass & Watson Family Dental--reading how many patients had such good experiences as described in their reviews. My primary concern was that the practice have pleasant and professional dentists and staff and that they be current on all dental-related technology. Having moved from Florida in April, I felt a little spoiled with the dentist I had seen for more than 15 years. I was not disappointed with my visit to Bass & Watson and feel like I have found the dental practice I hoped for. All front desk staff were friendly, professional, and helpful--greeting me with a smile and welcoming words. Allison brought me back to the treatment area--ensuring that I was fully informed about how the visit would proceed, the time it would take, describing everything she was doing, and making extra efforts to make me comfortable along the way. She is a gem. Upon meeting Dr. Watson, I was relieved because it was obvious he was detail oriented, professional, and experienced--and he also had a terrific chair-side manner. I'm no stranger to the dentist office after having a lot of work done on my teeth over the past 3 decades, so I know what feels right in a dental office environment and what doesn't. After this first visit, I'm totally glad that I chose this practice for my dental care. Thank you to all of the people at Bass & Watson who I met and interacted with today.

I have extreme anxiety visiting the dentist. When I moved to Raleigh a year ago, I began my search…read moreand Bass and Watson Family Dental stood out. The front desk team was extremely kind and knowledgeable. They were patient with me while I asked questions and recommended Dr. Bass based on my needs. When I went in for my consultation, Dr. Bass listened to all my concerns and answered any questions I had. He also provided me a treatment plan that worked best for my wallet. When I started the treatment plan, he allowed me to schedule when it was best for me, explained step by step expectations, allowed me to choose something to watch on the TV. He also provided me a neck pillow as I suffered from a car accident. He would take breaks as I needed and allowed me to hold onto a tool (suction tool) to allow my to use it when I needed and this helped me feel I was in control. The treatment was quick, painless, and my teeth look beautiful. This place is absolutely amazing. Everyone on staff is talented and kind. Dr. Bass put my mind and anxiety at ease. I LOVE going to the dentist now! Thank you Bass and Watson family !!!

BEWARE!!! BEWARE !!!!! BEWARE !!!!!!…read more I have had 2 separate incidents with this office and it has cost me over $5000. I asked about a night guard for TMJ and they told me they could make it - a gal questioned the wires in the guard and the gal with her said the lab would figure it out. The guard came back with no wires and they didn't return the old guard. My insurance would only pay for 1 guard in a 12 month period. So it cost $4000 to get the correct guard made as the TMJ issues were returning and I had severe pain in my jaw. In December I had an exam and was told I needed 2 crowns. I told them I wanted to wait until January because I was changing insurance. THE DENTIST AND THE HYGENIST TOLD ME I SHOULD DO IT NOW - IN DECEMBER- BECAUSE THERE MIGHT BE A WAITING PERIOD WITH THE NEW INSURANCE. I went back December 30th and paid the balance in full. I went back for the final crowns in January. They billed my "old insurance" in January and the claim was denied. Now I am being billed over $1600. Angela, the office manager, told me that there are notes in the file that said to keep the "old insurance" until the crowns were delivered. THAT IS FALSE!!!! I was told to get everything done on the old insurance. But now it is my fault because I should have known that they would have to bill my insurance for the permanent crowns. But isn't it nice that they will settle with me if I pay $1000 instead of the $1600 that was not paid by insurance. THEY ARE DOING ME A BIG FAVOR BY TRYING TO REDUCE THE BILL. Interesting - if your office is not in error due to the false note in my file - why are you offering me a "DEAL". BEWARE BEWARE BEWARE This office does everything to get MONEY !!!!! I would give a -10 if the rating was available.

I had a great appointment at Prime Family Dental with Dr. Schtakleff. She is clearly very thorough…read moreand detailed in her work, and did a great job of explaining everything that was going on with my teeth. She took her time with me as opposed to other dentists who just pop in for five minutes at the end of your appointment. Her assistant Gabby, was also really friendly and polite and tried to make the x-rays as easy as possible. Lynn at the front desk went out of her way to get me on the schedule and call my insurance to see what would be covered and when since I am on a recently purchased insurance plan. I had a really questionable dentist back in CA and avoided going to the dentist for a while when I moved out here. I guess you can say Dr. Schtakleff has restored my faith in dentistry :P. She didn't pressure me into fancy dental gadgets/procedures but told me affordable ways to manage my teeth and stop any issues before they get worse. She even did my cleaning herself! Another major plus is that the entire practice was crystal clean! Everything from the bathrooms to the sanitized tools, to the fact that both Gabby and Dr. Schtakleff are decked out in surgical scrubs! You had me at "hygiene."

Before we got into the chair he took me to his office and asked me a few questions. We chatted for 15 to 20 minutes and then we went to the chair.

I made the first appointment of the day and did not have to wait more than 5 minutes before being taken back. The dental hygienist (Shannon) was absolutely great.

Very clean and well staffed. On the way out they also offered me a cookie which I thought was nice (though kind of funny since it could be counterintuitive with a teeth cleaning). Overall, I loved this dentist office and will definitely be back for my follow up appointment. They take my dental insurance (Delta Dental) which was a great bonus as well.
