I went to Children's Dental Center based on multiple recommendations from fellow moms. I was…read morefloored with how wonderful this practice is. The hygienists, the assistants and Dr. Merlo are compassionate and excited to care for my otherwise nervous children. They brought enthusiasm and my kids quickly became excited to learn about tooth health, implement what they learned and actually be excited about their trip to the dentist vs. nervous about it! They wanted to come back for fun! I was very impressed with how well the office was run and how thorough everyone was. No question about it; this was the best dental experience I've ever had.

The staff is never friendly. Both ladies that come out to talk to you and get your child are never…read morenice. One of the ladies is completely rude and very condescending every time I've gone there. She even laughed at me one time and made fun of me in front of the other customers because I said I couldn't believe my 7 year old child's teeth that they removed had the entire root attached. She said it's always like that. I said well I have 5 children and I've never seen a whole giant root when any of them have lost a tooth. When I was there last week she kept calling me honey and talking down to me. I said, "I don't understand why you are talking to me with this tone." She claimed that my 6 year old daughter had a cavity that I never got taken care of. I'm like what do you mean, I was here for our last appointment and I was told she needed two teeth fixed so here we are. She said last year you were here and she wouldn't open her mouth to get her cavity fixed. I said no, she wouldn't cooperate that day for a cleaning. She said well she needs 3 teeth fixed, and honey we can't do all that today. I said okay, well I wasn't told that, I thought she was getting the two teeth fixed today that I was told about. She said my daughter needs two root canals with silver caps, and one tooth capped in the front. My daughter doesn't even have any teeth pain, but she needs root canals?! Sounds strange. The lady said to me, "If you come with your daughter and she doesn't open her mouth and do what we say then we can't fix her teeth next time. I said well do 6 year olds usually listen and cooperate for you? She said I don't know. She said that my daughter would be getting numbed with a needle in her gums, and I doubt that could happen without her completely freaking out. Same with my 8 year old son. They scheduled him for surgery at the Dyer hospital for next week; they said he needs 4 root canals done with silver caps and multiple fillings, but she can't tell me how many. My son doesn't even have any tooth pain. They have already put multiple silver caps on his teeth at a prior hospital visit 4 years ago. I decided to cancel their appointments and get a second opinion and never return. I've always not liked going there because of the terribly rude staff, but Dr. Tyree has done such good work on my son's front teeth that were capped and that's why I continued to come. Dr. Tyree did a beautiful job on my son's front teeth with white caps when no other dentist was willing to do it because they said he didn't have enough of the teeth left to work with. A few days ago he did an excellent job on my daughter's front tooth with a white cap; her tooth had been chipped so he made it whole again. I asked if my children could get white caps on the back teeth instead of silver and she said no because they would have to be specially made and would cost $1500 per tooth. I feel like maybe they do excessive procedures that aren't necessary, and make separate appointments to get more money from the insurance. I drive an hour to get there so that isn't convenient for me, especially since the tooth that they fixed on my daughter only took 5 minutes, so why couldn't they just fix the other two at the same time. I know they had the time because they had a cancellation. Also they will not let the parent go back with the child ever. I've seen at least four parents get into arguments with them about that and storm out very mad without their child being seen. Any other dentist I've gone to with my five children have always let me go back with them. I'm just done with them.

He denies the procedure had anything to do with what had happened. The following week one of his freshly placed fillings fell out, my child had to go back and have that replaced. 6 months later my child is still dealing with the aftermath of his shotty work. We're having his work corrected by another dentist. Would never recommend this Dr. Tyree to anyone. My child should have never had to have additional traumatizing work to correct his mistakes.

Unfortunately, my experience with dental care by Dr. Rogers at Munster Distinctive Dentistry was…read morevery disappointing. I went in to fix a small chipped filling and had no pain or sensitivity at that time. After the filling was replaced, I started having pain when chewing. I returned for bite adjustments, but the pain continued. I was then advised to get an onlay. Looking back, I wish I had gotten a second opinion at that point, but I trusted the recommendation and proceeded. After the onlay, my symptoms became significantly worse, including cold sensitivity, severe pain when chewing, and jaw pain that lasted for over a month. I ultimately sought a second opinion and was told I now need a root canal, and that the work was very close to the nerve and became inflamed. When I contacted the clinic to discuss my experience, I was told the issue may be related to pulp stones. This was frustrating to hear only after going through multiple treatments on the same tooth within a few months. This possibility was not raised earlier, despite several visits and X-rays, and the tooth had no prior nerve issues. I was also very disappointed with the billing. I was initially quoted around $475 after insurance for the onlay, but my total out-of-pocket ended up being $1,050. I was told this was due to insurance paying less than expected, even though the clinic is in-network with my insurance. A difference of this size is not what I would expect from an in-network estimate. Overall, this was a very frustrating experience. I do not recommend coming here for dental care and would not trust their estimates.

I had to take her to an urgent dental place that was not in network with her insurance. they once again did X-rays and informed me that she had a huge abscess!!!! and she had to have 2 of her teeth removed. the dentist at this new facility told me that they don't understand how it could of gotten missed on an X-ray. I paid $400 for this treatment!!! I called and spoke with the office manager who one did not even apologize for their mistake and two said that they took only X-rays of the LOWER TEETH. But the doctor looked completely in her mouth at her teeth and didn't see the hole in the tooth. unbelievable!! I will never ever go back.

The second and last visit was horrible. The doctor was yet again rude. He did not acknowledge my child or myself when he walked in the room.

The staff caught a complete attitude when I didn't agree with their treatment plan again. This is ONLY a fraction of what happened. They have ZERO compassion here! They do not treat the patients or parents with any respect. Do not put yourself or your child thru dealing with them!
