($) I declined this ($) and chose to go to a more affordable option at Temple University Kornberg school of Dentistry - where multiple dentists here verified I don't need a root canal (not covered by most if not all Medicaid plans) after I prompted them I was advised by EFFD I needed one. Shocked but relieved - I also realized EFFD is another practice exploiting a low-income ecosystem by using shady designed to help lower income/vulnerable, as you have no way to know if the practice is ethical and has no oversight, funneling more govt spending into their office by preying on this vulnerable population. Do your homework and verify with more than 1 opinion, and avoid shady characters like EFFD.

The office and staff are very welcoming.

It was also helpful to me that they thoroughly explained the process, timeframe, and cost from the beginning.

Same on the 26th. I mean, of COURSE Christmas is important, and of course staff and dentists should have vacations! But this is why one has an answering service and an emergency line! I will never go back. They are always so very prompt in offering cosmetic dentistry to their Main Line Matrons, but the second you have a legitimate need? Crickets.

I came in for an emergency visit due to a severely damaged and painful tooth. It was split into…read morepieces and the pieces were dangling. I spent hours undergoing consultation and x-rays, only to be told at the end of that visit that the extraction could not be performed and that I would need to return the next morning. I agreed based on the pain and how much time was spent getting X-rays. It was several hours. When I returned, the experience worsened. Before the procedure, the student dentist made a comment implying that my pain level was questionable because my blood pressure was "too good for someone in pain." Like I was Bill Murray's cameo character in "Little Shop of Horrors" screaming, "Candy bar!" This was dismissive, especially given the visible condition of my broken tooth. During the extraction, I repeatedly stated that I was in significant pain and that "something did not feel right." I was ignored multiple times. When I said the pain was too intense, the student dentist told me it was because the area was infected and that "when it's infected, it's going to hurt, and there's nothing I can do about that." After the procedure, I realized that the side of my gum had been torn. I asked directly for antibiotics because I had been told there was an infection, and I was told "No, it will be fine." I also asked for pain medication due to the severity of the pain and was told "You can buy Tylenol on your own." No antibiotics or pain management were provided. Because I could not get an appointment with my primary care physician until April 7, waiting without treatment was not a safe option. Oral infections can worsen, leading to increased pain, swelling, or abscess. I had to go to urgent care to receive antibiotics and pain medication. A second opinion said my gum was "butchered." This experience raises serious concerns about patient care, pain management, and communication. Being dismissed during a procedure and denied treatment after an infection is unacceptable.

Don't bother contacting them by their e-mail (dentalpatients@temple.edu). They don't reply and…read moredon't listen to your complaints. I've never had a more terrible experience from a dentistry or a hospital for that matter. I have been stuck in limbo with my student doctor for over 2 months now. She has not replied, answered, or said anything to reassure me that my needs are met. All I want is to schedule my next appointment to get my teeth cleaned and I have not gotten a reply since then. They said that if I had questions, I could contact her by text. No answer. I ask for her supervisor, she gives me a BS ChatGPT answer and doesn't follow back. Who do I need to contact here? This person should NOT be a doctor. She should be barred from the program and never be allowed in a hospital again. For the love of GOD, find a different dentistry. Do not give these students your time or money. Never had to wait this long just to schedule a hospital appointment in my life. Again, it has been OVER TWO MONTHS, no answers, no responses. I have a serious problem with my teeth so of course I'm going to be pissed. PS: I will be more than happy to change my review after my needs are met. Please do something. I have zero beef with the actual doctors or staff in this building. Only people I have beef with are the students who seem mentally handicapped.

This could be because I have a very low tolerance for pain or for the mere fact that I'm uncomfortable with having other peoples hands in my mouth stretching my jaw apart. What I've come to find with some dentists are that they can be rough and really don't explain what needs to be done or why. It's almost like their main concern is to do the work and submit it to the insurance, regardless of quality or care. At least that's been my experience. Who knows? What I do know is that Dr. Toni Rust is an awesome dentist and truly cares about oral health. Her office is very flexible to my hectic schedule, they're very good with last minute appointments, Toni explains every detail about what she's doing and the reason why and her true agenda is getting your teeth looking great. I plan on being a long-term patient of Toni's dental practice and recommend her to anyone that's looking for a new dentist!
