    Booth is an excellent dentist. In addition to superior skills and knowledge, he posses the…read morerequisite bedside manner that makes your experience informative and positive. Just having had a tooth extracted, I'm not in the mindset to write a lengthy review. That being said, the positive experience did provide me the need to properly recognize and note a well deserved acknowledgement. I'd give the man 6 stars if I could.

    I unfortunately had a very negative and traumatizing experience at General Dentistry of Cape Cod…read more I discovered the practice when I had a small chip in an onlay during the time that many practices were closed due to lack of PPE and COVID-19 restrictions. I was thrilled to find a practice that was in good shape to open and could help me within a week of calling about my situation. Upon my arrival, I noticed that the practice was taking health and sanitation precautions very seriously, which is certainly a relief during this time. When examining my tooth, Dr. Uzpurvis expressed concern over what was tooth and what was onlay. The onlay was done using CEREC technology so the color was designed to match my natural tooth. When examining the X rays, I was told there were two white lines beneath the surface which must be a crack, so he drilled very far into the tooth and prepped it for a crown versus an onlay. I was not having any pain under the tooth and the chip was just a small chip on the side where food was getting stuck. When I showed the X ray to my provider who put in the onlay, she explained these were actually cement lines, not a crack, which explains why they only appeared below the surface. The prep was very painful. I usually have a high tolerance for pain, but this was unbearable. I went home swollen and was told to come back the following week for "ES." I asked what this was and Dr. U said "don't worry about it, we just move around the gums to make room for the crown." I woke up the following morning with blood on my pillowcase and in my mouth from the dental work. The temporary crown I was given was very uncomfortable. When it was ultimately removed the base of the crown had not been shaved down and was very rough on the skin. Shaving down this crown would have taken 2 minutes max and alleviated so much discomfort I was experiencing, but this was just one example of the patient not coming first at this practice. It was also too wide. I returned to the office the next week for the ES, which is actually electro surgery - a gingivectomy. I was not at all prepared for this invasive procedure. Essentially a tool is used to burn the gums around the tooth. It was very painful and leaves your gums raw. This procedure took place on May 18 - it is currently July 20 and my gums have still not fully recovered. After the ES was complete I was in a lot of pain and required more novicaine injections. I was then given an Advil and a Tylenol as I was not prepared with any pain medication, not understanding what type of procedure this would be. Finally we were done and the mold was taken for the crown. After looking at the mold I was informed that this procedure was not the right one and I was going to have to wait weeks to heal and then go back in for a crown lengthening surgery. I broke down. I was already traumatized from this surgery, and now I need another? I asked for an explanation. Dr. U said that when he got halfway around the tooth he thought it might not work but kept going. I asked why we didn't catch this beforehand and got a few frustrating responses. The first was "I was trying to save you some bucks" and the second was "I mucked up, this was the wrong procedure." This was all so shocking to hear. As a patient, I want to know the risks of a procedure before going into it so I can assess if putting myself through something very invasive to potentially save money that may or may not work would be worth it. I was not given the opportunity to understand any of the risks or really any of the decisions being made while I was in the chair. Because I was in pain and clearly upset from sitting through what turned out to be an unnecessary surgery, Dr. U liberally prescribed me a Tylenol with Codeine and Lorazepam - a drug I had never heard of or taken - to treat the anxiety of coming back. I was told Lorazepam would "feel like a glass of wine" and to take it on my way in. I was not about to trust taking a new drug after this treatment and threw the bottles away. I called my regular provider after this experience, and she offered to take a look at my case the following week now that her practice was up and running. I was shocked to see that much of the onlay that I believed was taken out was actually still intact, which means we probably took out a lot of good tooth in prepping for this crown. I had the crown done elsewhere. When I went to bill, my insurance said Gen Dentistry billed my insurance as if the crown was complete, which is unethical. Instead of admitting to insurance they offered to send me the check and I could turn this over to the new provider. When the check didn't arrive I was told it was sent to an old address. I asked to stop payment and send a new check and was given attitude, and that we'd have to "check with the doctor." I remained patient and polite and still was treated like I was asking for too much. Practice also refused to refund my out of pocket deposit.

    One of the things I was most afraid of before my consultation was that my dental issue was so big,…read moreit might not even have a solution. That fear weighed heavily on me. But the moment I sat down with Dr. Esrawi, he immediately reassured me that it was absolutely no problem to fix and that he had a plan. That one moment lifted a huge weight off my shoulders and replaced my stress and apprehension with genuine relief and confidence. From that point on, everything went smoothly. The procedures were handled with incredible skill and care, and the results are life-changing--I have a confident, beautiful smile now. I used to be so self-conscious, and now I smile freely without a second thought. Dr. Esrawi is truly the glam of Miami but the consummate professionalism of New England. He has given me back to myself. His team is just as impressive--warm, attentive, and thoroughly professional. If you're looking for expert dental care delivered with compassion and confidence, I can't recommend Dr. Esrawi enough.

    Would advise to stay away if you want work done pleasing to you, rather than what the doctor likes…read more He'll do it his way and not stand by his work. Went in with dentures needing repair, he sold me a new set for $9000, which he promised would replicate, but better quality of course. They had originally been made elsewhere and shaped to make my face and smile optimally nice, and I emphasized that the new dentures should be made identical. He acknowledged repeatedly that that was not a problem but screwed up the alignment (uppers to lowers) and shape the first time. He then still made the second set his own way and again clearly different than my originals. People, afterward, told me i looked much older. I felt like I threw away $9000 and lots of my time. I have been trying to get a refund since November. He at one point said he would refund me most of the cost, and now says its in the hands of his attorney. (I returned the dentures and started over with a different dentist). Although he will brag about being a "high-end practice" and "teaching this stuff at Tufts" (not found on the online faculty list though) I really have nothing good to say about him.
