I never really had a dental hygienist that stood out to me before, but Amy was wonderful!!! I could…read moretell that I wasn't just a number to her, but that she truly cared about me and about the people she serves. Her heart is in her work. And not only that, she's also very skilled and worked very gently and carefully. Even though I have sensitive teeth, my experience was actually pleasant this time being at the dentist. I could also tell from the information she shared with me that she keeps up with current research and embraces holistic nutrition and also has knowledge about our body's other systems that affect our overall health, including our teeth. I also met with Dr. Schwartz for my exam. I could sense that his number one priority was what is best for the patient, and he treated me as well as a person would treat a family member. The cost of the cleaning and exam was affordable too, especially considering the quality of care.

I have been a patient for over 25 years. Today was absolutely unacceptable experience. I switched…read moreinsurances and mentioned it to my hygienist. The reply was " I clean teeth, front desk takes care of that". I told her I already informed front desk, and letting her know, if additional services beside cleaning were needed ( I expected this to be a common knowledge). This was not a typical response i usually receive. Then my mouth was examined and I sensed a great agitation/urgency wave from the hygienist. I was told my gums state declined from last time and we need to do something and develop a plan. I am not sure if my history was reviewed prior to my arrival. I replied, I have been living with my mouth for a long time and cleaning every 3 months. Onto cleaning: I asked for a numbing jel prior to cleaning. I was put flat in a chair, no overhead light. When top gum was covered, I asked to stop/ complete lower gum later and raise my head, as gel leaks into a throat typically in horizontal position. There was no actual wait time between application of gel and measurements by a sharp ( loud measurements with front desk clerk involved in a process recording mm). Then there were pictures taken, at one point I heard: " I don't want to see this". The hygienist stated I need to be seen by a doctor, but the Dr was not in a clinic at the time of my appointment (verified by the same front desk clerk). The cleaning/rinsing with laser like plink started, but not enough water was given, so my mouth was dry. I asked why I was not rinsed periodically, to which reply was the water is already a part of cleaning plick. I was asked to close my mouth periodically with metal cleaning tip very close to my lips. I actually felt my lips brushing against some surface when I close my mouth almost every time. I asked hygienist to keep the metal piece farther. She stopped and stated: Let's see a doctor....but the doctor was not in. I never saw a doctor, even thru Hygienist sounded like it's urgent and my gums were actively bleeding. Instead, front desk clerk appeared and wanted to reschedule my appointment. I reported noticeable agitation from hygienist, felt very unwelcomed as a client, basically disrespected. I wondered, if hygienist wanted to actually clean my mouth, do her job. Hygienist disappeared, no doctor in site, my mouth dry and still having gel in. I stated I will be transitioning my cares away to another service Provider.

Had to get a filling and was running late, and I can highly recommend Ruvim and Dr. Beggett. Pain…read morefree, good work, always willing to work with you even if you're a few minutes late. Amazing doctors, amazing work, amazing staff, and great dentistry!! Highly recommend!

Best dentist I've ever been to. Considerate, fun, professional, won't scold, and willing to work…read morewith your insurance. Awesome place. I came in after a long time of no insurance and a lot of work that needed to be done. Always had difficult teeth (constant cavities no matter what I do, crooked, chipped, missing some from no insurance when I just needed to take them out to make it affordable.) They worked up a whole timeline for me, being super open and ready to explain the start to finish of everything. I'm so relieved. They prioritize health and focus in order of what needs to be done in a sensible order. Thanks to that, I trust them a lot! I had my first wave of repairs done and wow - two hours of work and zero pain? Even the numbing injection was painless. They told me to be open if I felt anything when they started and I slightly did and they thanked me for saying something and numbed me up more. Nothing after. I'm usually nervous but after that I won't be. Never thought in my life I'd be excited to go get work done. I trust them and I am so appreciative of them! Awesome practice. Can't wait to give a full smile after I say that in the future.
