I went to Smile Dental in February 2020 because I saw a sign saying they accepted Medicaid, and…read morethough nothing was bothering me, I figured I could use a checkup. Before sitting down in the dentist's chair I was explicit about not paying for any services, and that I was only wanting to have an examination if Medicaid would cover the full cost. I was assured that this would be the case, so I proceeded to have a checkup and be told that I had two cavities that needed filling and needed a deep clean. I scheduled an appointment to come back and have the work done, again being assured that Medicaid would cover the entire cost of the services. I received a deep clean and had two cavities filled, the one on the right side by the dentist, and the one on the left side by his assistant who's name I believe was "Heady". After the local anesthetic wore off, I would feel a sharp, shooting, searing pain on the top left side of my jaw anytime I would chew on that side. It didn't matter what I ate, soft or hard, it hurt!! I made a follow up appointment to see what was wrong (scared to return because nothing hurt before I went there, and now it hurt a lot!) and after they looked at my bite, I was told nothing was wrong and that the pain could take up to six weeks to subside completely. I was pretty disappointed and frustrated, but I decided to just wait and hope for the best, chewing everything on my right side. Then COVID happened and I had other more pressing matters to attend to. Over four months later the pain has lessened, though it's not gone. I'm still hoping it will disappear completely and my mouth will feel like it did before I went to Smile Dental. I recently received a bill from them for a few hundred dollars. The bill doesn't say what it's for. That is what reminded me to write this review. I can't urge people to stay away from this business enough. Oh, I forgot to mention that when I returned to have my bite examined to see what was causing the pain, they couldn't get the air compressor to work to grind down the filling. They told me to reschedule in a few days after they could get someone in to repair it. The equipment in this office seems to be pretty outdated. There was also an expired maintenance tag on the X-ray machine.

So it pains me terribly to leave a sour review; but after owing a patient for about 5 years, they just dropped me and my insurance like a bad habit it and without any warning whatsoever. My cleaning was coming due end of July 2024 and middle of July I get a text message that's says we don't take your insurance anymore. You can either self pay or cancel. That's how I'm treated after years of loyal service. No warning. Not even a phone call to explain. I got nothing but booted to the curb. So anyone who treats longtime patients like that, doesn't get to keep good stars in my book. So it's with much dismay that I have to say something negative, but to have your care provider turn their back on you inexplicably isn't acceptable and incredibly hurtful.

Dr Bennett and his team have integrity and it really shows with their work. Recently I came in after not having a cleaning in a long time. Dr Bennett explained the condition of my teeth, where things looked good and potential areas of concern. It was almost like he was explaining it to a first year dental student, and it helped demystify the process. Ultimately, my teeth passed the inspection, and I did not need any additional work. I was happy to hear that, though it was his X-ray explanations that gave me peace of mind. Also, I had a question about whitening products. His staff told me the pros and cons of each method so I can make an educated choice for my teeth, instead of just encouraging the most expensive option. They truly look out for the well being of the patient.

My first visit required me to do some X-Rays in addition to a cleaning and they made the process painless. Yesterday's cleaning went without a hitch, quick and effective. I hate to admit that I am blanking on the name of my dental hygienist, but she's amazing! Dr. Christiansen is personable and polite.
