    I have been going to Corning Dental Associates for years and years. We moved away from the area and…read morereturning to Corning years later. I tried other dentists in the area for my kids and myself with each experience being never up to the service, the quality of people and their skills and the professionalism of the staff and office never meeting Corning Dental Associates. We have had all sorts of treatments in the decades we have gone to this fabulous dentist group...and all have been relatively pain free and proactive. They also are plugged into a great group of oral surgeons, so our double wisdom teeth extractions (2 kids back to back) was easy, affordable and the patients were up in running in no time with no issues or infections. We now live an hour north of Corning and still make th trek to Corning Dental to continue our relationship and receive the best dental care in the area.

    My husband had a cap split n fall out. I called Corning Dental Associates for information re:…read morerepair and whether he could use his Insurance. The front desk person immediately stated that no decisions could be made because he wld be REQUIRED to have "full mouth xrays, a comprehensive dental exam and a cleaning/ hygiene appt". I started to explain that he has his hygiene, as covered by his insurance, biannually. She stated very firmly that he would be required to have hygiene performed. She repeated three times the RULES required before he could be seen for his broken tooth. Yes, its best For Xrays and a comprehensive exam being necessary. In addition to feeling bullied by this person, it kept going badly. I asked a simple question if whether they accepted insurance payments before we had to pay the bill. "No, he pays and waits for the insurance reimbursement" Soooo they can charge whatever they want and the patient gets "whatever". This phone interaction was the rudest communication I have ever had with a healthcare facility office. As an Rn myself, with a 50 year hospital career and currently working as a fill-in physicians office RN, this pretty much sounded like extortion of persons needing emergency treatment. I asked her twice why he was required to have cleaning despite having this done in our out of state location, she said it was a requirement. That alone would be 100% out of pocket. It was obvious that this dental office puts money as their first and only priority. We were referred by a friend who pays cash and has all her care at the dental associated location. No Thanks. As it is, we wld have to drive an hour in to Corning for care while dreading and assuming mistrust of this group. It felt like upfront extortion! My husband had tongue cancer, radiation to his tongue and full mouth xrays wld need to have been discussed and negotiated by a dentist! This front desk person never asked anything about my husband. Also, his chemo therapy caused significant deafness which was not a yopic I had any chance of mentioning. I was pretty much bullied, Amen Be careful using this group, there are others available with less glitz n glamor! We found another dental office that not only asked about my husband's dental history, they spent time explaining how they needed to know a lot more and yes, they bill insurance company first! Couldn't have been nicer!

    Care quality is OK, and they have expensive imaging machine, which is maybe why they charge 2 to 3…read moretimes what I expected, after research, for extraction w/ bone graft, crown on implant.

    This was my first time here. I was a bit concerned when the initial conversation with the dentist…read moreincluded the comment "many people spend thousands of dollars to have the implants done". I'm terrified of dentists so I can't be sure what the rest of the conversation was, but that comment was a concern for me (thinking "why did he say that?) The staff is very nice. I had an appointment just before 4pm. I did not have to wait. They took x rays, and these were x rays I have never seen before. They took the regular ones (the black and white ones) but then they took some that were actually color photos of my teeth. The dentist showed me these on a large tv screen (which was on the wall in front of the dental chair). He showed me the areas of concern; why they concerned him and what should be done to correct the problem. When I was done the receptionist gave me an estimate for the procedures I needed done. ($3000 for two crowns) The only problem I encountered was that I called before scheduling an appt to see if they accepted our dental insurance. I was told they "Accepted" it. Apparently, I did not understand that there is a difference between "we accept it" and "being a provider" (ok, lesson learned). The receptionist was kind enough to explain that what that means is that we (my husband had an appt too) pay out of pocket for the procedures done and they file the claim with the insurance company for us (so we don't have to) and then the insurance company will reimburse us. This was a BIG surprise for me and thankfully we were able to cover it. I like this dentist but paying out of pocket for entire bill is the only negative
