All of a sudden every time I went to the dentist I had cavities, need crowns etc. My most recent trip they told me I had a cavity back on my molar that needs to be filled. I said to Dr Patel, that I just had that filled by Dr Kim on my prior visit. She insisted that it was different, but I remember it because I endured the pain to get it filled. Upon my return trip for the filling, Dr Patel stated it was 2 cavities needed to be filled?!! I was like all of a sudden it is 2 cavities when my estimate stated only 1. Dr Patel started drilling away and about 30 mins in she stopped drilling and said to me, I am doing my best but the cavity is in between my back molar and the adjacent tooth. She also stated it could possible need a root canal if the filling doesn't work. I said I came to fill 1 cavity that turned into 2 cavities and now you are saying possible a root canal ?? Then I rolled my tongue across the area and was SHOCKED to feel my molar bored out so much that was there any tooth left?? I asked her why she bored out, what felt like my whole tooth, so much of my tooth and she stated because of the cavity touching 2 teeth. Right then I knew this was the exact area where Dr. Kim tried to fill. I told her that Dr Kim must have done it wrong, because she is telling me the cavity was underneath the filling. Common sense tells you the cavity wasn't done right the first time. So she continued drilling and about 1 1/2 hours later I left with swollen lip,do to the assistant stretching my mouth so far, and a prognosis of a possible root canal if this filling doesn't work. A couple of months later I went to a different dentist, for my 2nd cleaning for the year,and he tells me that my tooth needs a root canal. Now facing a $3000.00 root canal when this new dentist looked at the tooth she told me she could not do a root canal because my tooth was FRACTURED and needed to be pulled!!! She stated the previous dentist took out so much of the tooth that it fractured and could not be saved. So they pulled my right molar. Now this is my steak chewing tooth and now I need a $5000.00 implant!!!!! If you value your teeth do NOT go to Hamilton Mill Dental Associates because they will nickel and dime you to death and possible fracture your teeth!!! I had a crown come out from them and they couldn't see me for three days to fix it and then told me you should never go this long to get a replacement....I said that y'all would not work me in. Again Crowns should NOT come off unless they were done incorrectly the first time!! Again another$1500.00!! BEWARE of this office!!!! Stay away!!! Or you will be returning every time you have a cleaning!!!!! Please take my advice!!!! Dr. Patel is too inexperienced to be drilling anything in your mouth and the associates push down so hard with suction that your inside of your mouth will get cut, bruised or torn. Every Dentist I have been to ALWAYS puts Vaseline on your lips to prevent the trauma!!! If you love your teeth and want to keep them DO NOT VISIT HAMILTON MILL DENTAL ASSOCIATES !!!!

After a disastrous experience with my general dentist--who began Invisalign treatment before referring me for necessary extractions--I ended up facing painful and unavoidable complications. The delayed referral caused my extra teeth to shift, cutting through my gums and even fracturing the root of a neighboring tooth. Since May, I've had three extractions, a root canal, and an apicoectomy. It's been an incredibly difficult road, but the one thing that has made this bearable is the professionalism, expertise, and kindness of Dr. Walker and his team. From the front desk to the surgical support staff, everyone has treated me with compassion and thorough care. Dr. Walker took the time to explain everything, answer questions, and guide me through each step with clarity and patience. If you are facing the daunting prospect of oral or facial surgery, I would recommend this practice without hesitation. They are the only reason I've made it through this ordeal with my sanity--and a (somewhat restored) smile.

I have 5 reasons why I love this place. 1. Janell was awesome, she called to remind me to take my sedation pill. 2. They were nice to me and the team of folks that I brought in for support. 3. Dr. V and I had great conversation and he made me feel comfortable. 4. His assistant gave me the SPA treatment. I got headphones and a snuggly blanket as I wore my cool shades. 5. Did I mention I went to the dentist only to realize that it's just as comfortable as going to the SPA??? Well, this is the treatment that you get in Buford. Then... due to their professional approach, patience, and how they treated my situation with care, I am not afraid anymore! Thank you, Dr. V and Team for the day at the dentist SPA.

After two discouraging and frustrating consultations with other dentists and oral surgeons, we talked to Dr Vancil. He was so kind and compassionate and thoroughly explained the issues ave the procedure he would perform. The procedure ended up being far more intense and difficult than originally anticipated because of the depth of the roots of my sons teeth so Dr Vancil was not able to extract any of the teeth but he instead had to cut out each individual tooth! He made my son feel as comfortable as possible and able to withstand the procedure. ! We are beyond thankful for his expertise and compassion and how he handled every aspect of this whole process!

There's nothing he can't handle. You don't feel any pain, except for a little pinch that would last about 5-7 seconds as he shoots up your gums to numb you very well. He leaves you for about 5-7 minutes while the meds go to work. He comes back and prick you in the places where he's going to work while asking you if you feel this or that. The high powered stuff he has, you don't feel a thing!! You won't even realize after a tooth has been taken out. Now, as this place is pricey, keep in mind you're dealing with a specialist and not a general dentist. After all is said and done, he gives you a prescription for some high powered pain meds, which I love, and you will never feel any pain at all. Depending on what type of insurance you have dictates what you will pay out of pocket. However as I did say, depending on the procedure you're having can possibly run up into the thousands. If you need a specialist, check this guy out. There's nothing like a pain free specialist on your side.

When I came to Hamilton Mill Oral & Facial Surgery (Dr. Yadira Cardona-Rohena's practice) for a surgical procedure, I expected precision--and what I received was far beyond that. From the moment I walked through the door, I was treated with the same respect and attention that one would hope to receive in any high-performance team environment. The staff greeted me promptly, introduced themselves clearly, and explained each step of the process in plain but comprehensive terms--something I value deeply after years of mission briefings and operational de-briefings. Dr. Cardona-Rohena displayed a level of competence and compassion that is rare. She took the time to listen to my concerns, assessed the situation thoroughly, and laid out the options with clarity and transparency. Her background in oral and maxillofacial surgery--supported by rigorous training in jaw, face, and mouth complexities--was evident. Her confidence put me at ease; her empathy reminded me of the camaraderie I've known in service. The facility's atmosphere is relaxed yet professional--no sterile impersonal coldness, no feeling like a number. The ancillary staff were efficient, punctual, and friendly; the pre-operative and post-operative protocols were handled smoothly. From the front desk through billing and follow-up, the entire "mission" was executed flawlessly. Having served and relied on teams where failure is not an option, I can honestly say that the care I received here met and exceeded my expectations. If you're looking for oral and facial surgical care from a practice that treats you like a valued individual--not just a procedure--Hamilton Mill Oral & Facial Surgery delivers.

I first showed up for an extraction (Sept 22), and instead of being treated, I was told that I needed to schedule another appointment for the surgery, and I would have to continue in pain. I went to the next appointment (Oct 3) and they took out my tooth but it was like social hour at the club! Idle chat and conversation in Spanish, while carving my tooth out between Dr. Cardona and her staff. I returned the next week (Oct 8) for a surgery check and complained of the sharp edges. Dr. Cardona polished one corner off, and it felt better. They said that if I needed more takeoff to feel more comfortable, then I could come back. I went back in for them to do this at the appointed surgery day, scheduled time (Oct 14th), and I was told that I could not be seen until after another patient. They had two cases scheduled at the same time. If I stayed, I would miss my Cardiac Stress Test. I chose to leave. After that, they scheduled me in again (only on surgery day) (Oct 17th) at lunch, and I did forget since I was involved in another urgent matter. When I called, they refused to see me and only referred me back to the VA. When I explained that the sharp point on my tooth was cutting my lower lip, it didn't resonate. I know that the VA probably sent a lot of taxpayer dollars to this outfit (Yadira Cardona-Rohena, DMD), but as a veteran, the government should get a refund! They deserve way less than 4.7 stars. Patient beware! BP
