I wound up using his competent periodontist but it turns out she only comes once a month and will only see you in his office. I went back just about two weeks later in misery and saw Dr. Boris. That was a problem being Boris was not the surgeon and could not answer my question which likely bugged him. I admit I had anxiety but instead of explaining things, he was rude. He was dismissive and told me to go to dental school when I asked a couple of questions while looking at the final xray. The truth is that I had a very difficult extraction and bone graft because of a root canal and post. I was in a lot of painful discomfort after 12 days I wanted him to check the healing. He also did not like that i used a swear word as a modifier to describe the giant hole in my mouth. In fact, he yelled it back to me. Doubt it would have offended him as much if i were a man. I am passing on using him. Currently, it's two months and the bone graft is pressing on my outer gum and pulling it down. I understand that my early morning extraction by Dr. Bonino set her back for the day, but I would have liked more pre and post consultation instead of a boiler plate handout. It felt a bit like "Next!" I should add that i had asked the receptionist for numbers on treatment cost. Estimating with paper and pencil, she told me to bring 500 for the extraction. i was charged over 1,000. I guess it may have been the graft material? I received no formal itemized treatment plan. This said, Dr. Boris is the dentist of a friend of mine and she recommended him. As on a previous review, I suspect i triggered his need to be perfectionist and in control but in actuality I was the periodontist's patient.

You'll never feel the needle. His office manager and her billing however, is NOT acceptable in any way shape or form! My ex-husband and I both went there, when we divorced, our accounts were supposed to be split apart. In two years, she has failed to do that and we both get bills for the other. She claims once it's paid, she'll separate them. The bill has repeatedly been paid in full, yet, she never separates them out. She has now started to send a bill for a negative amount of money with a letter stating to pay the bill. HOW DO YOU PAY A NEGATIVE BALANCE?! We have both given up and decided to take our business elsewhere. As much as I love this dentist, I cannot tolerate the poor management of billing by this "manager." She needs to go back to school on proper accounting.

I went in for a wisdom tooth extraction with the expectation Dr Eckert would be performing the…read moreprocedure I was surprised when his son with only a few years out of college showed up to perform the procedure. The son then proceeded to change the sedation treatment after I had already signed the forms and was hooked up to EKG and oxygen. I caught the switch before the operation went through and after Dr Eckert's son pushed back on me and I decided to walk out of their office. I've since been to another oral surgeon and that dentist said that only one wisdom tooth needed to come out and the other three had complications due to their proximity to facial nerves, that if damaged could cause facial paralysis. None of this information was given to me at my consultation with Dr. Eckert and I went in expecting all four teeth removed. What Dr. Eckert did was careless, unprofessional and unethical. I'm glad the procedure did not go through otherwise the son could have caused long term damage had he not had the experience to do the complicated procedure on the upper wisdom teeth.

Sitting at home (33 miles away) less than three hours after extraction of a wisdom tooth that Dr…read more Eckert described as "fractured, with deep roots, near a nerve and very close to an existing crown" (in other words, he gave me every possible warning about what could go wrong), I am ASTOUNDED at how seamless and soothing the actual procedure was, both in regard to the extraordinary care taken by his staff---shoutouts to Lillia for her compassionate scheduling efforts, Kristina and Katrina for their impeccable teamwork---in preparing me for the procedure, and to Dr. Eckert's astonishingly smooth performance of the extraction. His calm, engaged manner, always answering questions, and checking in about my comfort, made the experience that much more meaningful. The caring, empathetic professionalism of these folks reminds me of the Michelin (restaurant) Guide, in that they colloquially rate restaurants as "worth a stop," "worth a detour" or "worth a voyage." I felt that this experience was entirely worth the journey.

She hooked me up with a VERY well done and discreet front tooth crown that I was proud to smile big with at my wedding day recently.

I was recommended Cambridge Smiles for their excellent bedside (chairside?) manner and quality of service. And after 3 visits now (2 of which were deep cleanings), I have to say they totally deliver. There's a cute doggy hanging out, there's good calming music. Good little bonus. I didn't get a lot of time with Dr. Sones, but she was able to answer my questions with detailed answers and charts. The majority of my time was spent with the hygienist, Trang. I can't stress enough how much I appreciated the level of professionalism. She checked in with me every step of the way, letting me know exactly what to expect and what each tool was for. She made sure the entire process rather pain-free and judgement-free. The work was careful and detailed. And, wow, what a world of difference all that makes. The results are (dare I say?) life changing. Already I feel a renewed sense of confidence, I feel like I can smile again without embarrassment. So... can't recommend it highly enough!
