I was expecting much worse news than I received. After an EXTENSIVE cleaning on my teeth they only discovered 2 small cavities. We scheduled an appointment a few weeks out to take care of that and I happily showed off my gleaming white teeth to everyone I saw. When I was scheduled to come back the black ice storm of 2014 had hit Crestview. The receptionist called me from her own house to let me know they were closed that day and rescheduled me further out. I was surprised they took the time to let me know considering how bad the weather was that day. When I arrived to have the cavities taken care of I only had to wait in the waiting room about 8 minute before they took me in. Upon further inspection of my teeth it was found that one of my old fillings had come loose and a small cavity had formed underneath it. They went ahead and knocked out all 3 of the cavities in one visit to save time for me. They even used pediatric strength numbing agents to keep me comfortable. I have a MASSIVE fear of dentists from childhood and it was nice that Dr. Wayer and her staff did an excellent job of keeping me calm and numbing me properly so as to prevent pain during my visit. I would highly recommend them BUT not recommend waiting 18 years before your next visit!!

After calling multiple dentist offices, I called Bright Smiles and spoke to Amanda, their patient coordinator. She was so nice and helpful and worked me in for an appointment with the dentist that day! Once I arrived, the dental assistant, Nicole, did a great job taking x-rays and prepping me for the dentist. Then Dr Megan Salzlein came in and explained the best solution to repair my broken veneer. When she was done, it looked and felt great! Dr Salzlein is a very sweet person who really cares for her patients. What a blessing it was to find Bright Smiles! I wish the entire staff would relocate to South Carolina (but I understand why they live in Destin). They let me know I could call on them again anytime we are in this area. i highly recommend the awesome team at Bright Smiles! Jerry Green

Our experience with Emerald Waters Dental Care was frustrating from start to finish…read more After my husband's extensive dental work, we ran into major insurance issues despite having both primary and secondary coverage. Instead of resolving why one insurer paid and the other did not, the office told us they submitted the same documents to both and left it at that. When I contacted the secondary insurance myself, they said specific documentation was missing. I spent six hours calling both insurance companies, gathering the correct codes, and resubmitting paperwork -- work their office should have handled. We were also told my husband couldn't schedule further visits unless the entire balance was paid, even though insurance processing was still pending. We paid. A second billing issue involved our son's cleaning. We were told his primary insurance paid only $6 because his student status wasn't updated. When I asked how primary insurance is determined for a dependent with two policies, I was repeatedly told to "call your insurance company" instead of receiving a clear answer. The tone was dismissive and unhelpful. Shortly after, we were informed they had not properly adjusted the account and that we were being removed from the practice. Throughout this process, we were left to manage billing and insurance corrections ourselves. If you choose this office, be prepared to closely monitor your claims and advocate for your own billing resolution.

Most painful dental experience of my lifetime. And this is from someone that has had many dental…read moreprocedures over the course of my life. Dentist gave me two shots to deaden the pain, but gave me both shots in the same spot with no time for the first shot to work. I got to feel them both full strength and then the dentist blamed me for flinching under the pain. She told me she was going to replace a filling with "space" around it. This tooth did not have a filling, it was a crown. She ended up removing the crown by drilling on it and then broke it with a pair of pliers in my mouth. Bottom line, the dentist seemed to not have a very good grasp of what was going on in my mouth and how to proceed towards a logical solution. She subjected me to huge amounts of unnecessary pain and then when I would flinch (the normal physiological response to great pain) she would blame me and tell me to do better. My mouth hurt so bad to move afterwards, I could only eat liquid food. Because of the pain, I couldn't open my jaw enough to eat solid food for 3 weeks. That appointment was over 45 days ago, and I still have not received the call that my permanent crown is ready. On top of all that, the overcharged me on my copay. I now have a temporary crown and will absolutely go to another dentist and start all over, rather than sit in that chair ever again.

It was pretty bad. I'm talking I had a Llyod Christmas of Dumb and Dumber smile. Dr. Chase listened to all my concerns and my issues and set up a plan to address and fix all of them. Doctors are artists of their concentrations. Those practices come with a continuous effort to stay current and proficient in the latest procedures and techniques, hence why their career is called a practice. Dr. Chase is an amazing artist in the field of dentistry. Couple that, with her cordial and pleasant office staff and dental techs...my visits have been nothing short of enjoyable and not the usual dreaded Marquis de Sade-esque visit one normally endures... Dr. Chase has restored my smile and my confidence in now smiling at others. My only complaint would be the fact she would talk with her tech about great subjects (crime documentaries, home improvements and her bad stock picks) while working on my teeth...and me not being able to join the interesting conversation due to all the fingers and tools stuffed I'm my gullet. I digress. Midbay dental is one of the best dental offices I've ever visited. Highly recommended. Thank you so much Midbay Dental. TJ

In October of 2019, I took my 5 year old to Dr.Chase for a small cavity in her back molar. They…read moretold me that the best solution is to fill it with silver diamine fluoride and that it would stop the decay and is a no pain solution for kids. I wish I would have researched this better but I went along and trusted that they knew best. Now, mid March of 2020, my child has pain in that same molar. I take her to an emergency dentist (on COVID-19 isolation and went to the closest and best rated dentist that was avail). The cavity WAS NOT stopped and in fact became so bad that it decayed her entire tooth to the point that it might have to be pulled out! $500 later and a TON of pain- her tooth nerve was removed. A crown was put in place but there is only a 50% chance the nerve will heal. If it doesn't heal, it will have to be pulled. This tooth will not grow back in until she is 12 years old. Not only has my sweet girl had to go through all this unnecessary tooth pain but it was something that could have been taken care of from the beginning with a simple filling! This makes me furious, why wouldn't a dentist properly explain the consequences and long term?! I am not a dentist and one should be able to trust that their health care provider is doing the right thing! I will NEVER go here again, I would not advise trusting this practice with your kids teeth. They obviously cut corners!
