Doctor should recognize the mistakes made and update the Michigan Dental Association with the…read moremistakes missed so everyone can get on with life and this patient can get his teeth fixed so they are touching and he can eat on both sides, 4 porcelain crowns just need to be remade it's that simple but the doctor or no one else is stepping up. Dr. Sarah Palmer missed a bunch of stuff through a biased clinical exam through the Michigan Dental Association with Dr. Palmer where the doctor from Grandville Dental Health Center that did the work was present and now the patient has to live with these ongoing issues because the doctor didn't do a proper clinical exam. Dr. Sarah Palmer was bribing me with a check to sign a release form to say the doctor did nothing wrong. Who offers a check to someone before the clinical exam even took place. I was no way taking a few thousand dollar check because I wanted to know why me teeth are breaking after a $54,000 full mouth restoration of all porcelain teeth but instead the doctor took a fake exam and didn't take any bite checks or x-rays and failed to diagnose 8 teeth not touching and a backwards dental crown then gives inaccurate information to the dental society to decided my case. Because of this doctor and the two other doctors that gave a fake exam and their failure to be non-biased this patient is unable to get his teeth fixed and was left with a botched dental treatment because Dr. Sarah Palmer doesn't know how to do a thorough examination. It is a complete fraud really... Patient used the SmileMichigan find a dentist tool which is owned and operated by the Michigan Dental Association and spent over $50,000 on a full mouth restoration through one of there members which consisted of 24 all porcelain teeth and was left with 8 of the 24 not even touching. Only 1 week after this full restoration a bridge became loose a crown became loose and another permanent crown fell completely off and the dentist was never willing to fix anything so a peer review complaint was filed but the whole board is friends with Dr Larrissa Bishop the past president of the dental society and the board members just couldn't be unbiased. The SmileMichigan find a dentist tool endorsed there members and advertised that the MDA dentists are dedicated to upholding the highest standard of practice so that you and your family can receive the best oral care. The MDA advertised that they are dedicated to ensuring that Michigan residents receive the highest quality oral health care and How can the MDA allow there member to leave a patient with 8 teeth not touching after a full mouth restoration. This should be illegal and if it's not made right then people should be prosecuted. Coverup after coverup because Dr. Larissa Bishop is the past president of the West Michigan District Dental Society that decided this case and there is major conflicts of interest with at-least 10 of the board committee members and they are all friends. The Michigan Dental Association is continuing to allow there member Dr. Rebecca Vanderbaan and Dr Larissa Bishop from Grandville Dental Health Center to get away with a backwards placed dental crown tooth #3 completely backwards then made several adjustments until 8 porcelain teeth are not even touching then left him with a backward dental crown until he found out from another dentist 1 year later. The MDA isn't even following their own guidelines and bylaws and should reopen this case because it's not going away as long as this patients teeth aren't touching. The MDA needs to help this patient get 4 crowns remade so his teeth are touching it's really that simple otherwise it's completely false advertising on the Michigan Dental Associations part. The Michigan Dental Association should go back and look at the Suppressed Photo #120 which is the photo that Chris Wilson, RDA, from peer review at the dental association says was weirdly missing from there files and re-open this case so this patient can get his teeth fixed. Stop covering up for the president of the WMDDS West Michigan District Dental Society and do your job. The dental association is not upholding there members to the highest standard of practice so that you and your family can receive the best oral care as they advertise to the public.

However, after having my cleaning cancelled out from under me due to staffing issues and then not having a new appointment to offer me for 6-8 weeks, I was already less than thrilled. I decided to give them one more chance, and took that appointment, despite the extended wait. I arrived to my appointment, 10 minutes early and checked in. I then sat in their waiting room until 25 minutes past my scheduled appointment time with no communication from the front desk. It wasn't until I called another dentist's office while still in their waiting room that I even got so much as a glance from the receptionist. Left feedback on their Facebook page, was blocked immediately. Zero communication skills. Zero patient retention efforts. I'll take my time and money where it's valued.

I used to hate my teeth being cleaned but the hygienists here know how to get it done quickly and with minimal discomfort. I appreciate knowing a visit here usually takes less time than expected which is so helpful with a busy life! I usually see Karis or Thi, and love them! I saw Kim yesterday and she was great too. Very friendly and enjoyable to work with. The dentists are always very kind and will make suggestions for care that is not only beneficial for the patient but not always the costly method- which is awesome! They also have a great reputation in the area so referrals are easy! They have paid close attention to Covid protocols to keep staff and patients safe. You can tell their facility is very clean when you're there!

I said no, and she said it was a mistake and let it go (?!?) DON'T SIGN anything without reading it very carefully. They ask you to sign a pad at the front desk. I wish I had taken a picture of the pad, scrolled down to the end, and opened & recorded everything. They attached that scribble pad signature to my agreement to charges for a later appointment (no explanation, just sign the pad on the way in). The initial visit is like visiting a bad car dealer. They take you to the business office and try to upsell you (when you're vulnerable, after ex-rays). The actual dental staff is great and the environment is good. The care I received was great. The dentist and assistants were professional, friendly, caring, and had great communication. My filling and crown were taken care of faster than I expected. I was very happy with the actual dental care.

I had to return twice the following days to still not have them corrected, by the same dentist. I wish I would had insisted to have the main dentist that's been there, to do them in the beginning. Not the dentist fresh out of school, although she was very nice, she was very sloppy and rushing and now I'm stuck with fillings that just don't feel right still. First time I returned was because a good chunk of one chipped off shortly after getting home, the next day was because my teeth felt incredibly rough and fake and my bite needed a lot of adjustments. I've unfortunately had many fillings in my life and never had to return for such big adjustments. One is still painful a year later and my new dentist said that the gap is too big between both that were done by her, now I get food stuck in the spaces! I can't get them redone for another year and even so, it'll make my teeth weak by replacing them, so I'm stuck with it. I'm not sure how the guy dentist is, but he's had years of experience so I'm sure he's good. And he was always friendly in passing, although I never got to meet him for a visit.
