At first I figured, well, he's old, so he should know what he's doing....WRONG! After comparing the techniques utilized by the Dr. who corrected his botched root canal, this guy just needs to hang up his drill and retire. He didn't use a latex barrier around the tooth (this prevents bacteria-laden saliva from running down the hole and infecting the open canal) and generally wanted to just make chit-chat with you -while he was drilling! Dude, pay attention! I'm not here because we're friends, nor do I want to hear about your opinions of "people on the dole," you old-conservative twit! But I can recommend Dr Samantha Harris -she was incredibly thorough and professional.

A month later I had to have the tooth pulled. First one ever. I take good care of my teeth and spend close to $5000.00 trying to saving this one. When the new endo examined it, he told me that it had degraded so much he could see the gutta percha, (the filling material). Then everything made sense. I am extremely allergic to latex, which is what gutta percha is, rubber. When the first root canal was done she went through the root tip and then packed in the gutta percha which came in contact with my tissue. Pain and inflammation were the allergic reaction! I could have kept my tooth and a lot of time and money if the first one had been done correctly. My original review stands. Run don't walk away from these people.

I suggest you find them and avoid TDS like the plague they are.

Wow! My experience with the current ownership of this long time (70+ years - two previous owners)…read moredental practice is also spot on. Both my wife & i had been coming to this office for over 50 years. Dr. Andrea Ruby purchased the business approximately in 2018. We continued receiving dental care here, now under Dr. Ruby. About two years ago my wife had misgivings about the care she was receiving and decided to leave. Much to my detriment i stayed. My horror began November 7, 2022, the day my brother passed away. Coincidentally i had an appointment scheduled the same day and i obviously cancelled & re-scheduled the appointment. I had to cancel the re-scheduled appointment because of exposure to Covid. So, the appointment was re-scheduled again. When i arrived for the re-scheduled appointment i was met by a hostile, belligerent, threatening, intimidating young lady who informed me i would need to pay $50 for the previous cancellation or Dr. Ruby would not see me!!! The cancellation was inside the 24 or 48hr window. I guess i needed a divine revelation my brother was going to die on November 7 allowing me to cancel within the arbitrarily set timeline. I was stunned to say the least. I was seated, she was standing over me demanding i pay. It was embarrassing. This was Dr. Ruby's newly minted receptionist/office mgr. After she conferred with Dr. Ruby the $50 "fine" was waived. In retrospect i should have walked out never to return. But being Mr. nice guy even though being very upset, i decided to stay. The next two appointments went smoothly. Knowing how volatile the receptionist could be i avoided any confrontation. Moving forward, i received a letter dated June 15, 2023 stating Ruby Dental will no longer accept my insurance as an in-service provider. As stated in the letter "reimbursements for procedures do not meet the current climate of compensating our staff properly." I guess compensating staff would be out of my pocket? So, again i stayed. I must be a glutton for punishment. I changed my insurance provider and had an appointment scheduled for 1/03/2024. I was informed by the receptionist/office mgr that birth dates on office records and insurance records did not match. The insurance had a wrong birth date which meant a claim could not be filed. And i would have to pay out of pocket. Once again i cancelled an appointment. Thinking it would be a quick fix, i would reschedule. I never had a chance. I was informed by letter that because "of last minute cancellations" (only allowed three) and "differences in dental philosophies and office operations" i was no longer a good fit. I didn't know i had a dental philosophy. I was fired. Oh, i forgot, the letter included a statement for $50 for cancellations!! The result of all this is that Ruby Dental lost two very long term patients The birth date quick fix was anything but. It took three months of dealing with the insurance bureaucracy to get the date corrected. I just received a second statement for that $50 with a note that claims i cancelled four appointments. I only have record of three "allowed" cancellations initiated by me (my brothers passing, Covid exposure, the insurance date mix up) The fourth was actually cancelled & rescheduled by the office because a crown did not arrive by the appointment time. I was never a no show. The cancellation window is purely arbitrary. I did want to remain with this office (God knows why) & i made every effort to do so despite the difference in philosophy (still can't figure that), poor management, rude & hostile behavior by the receptionist. These days it seems like there is a dental office on every corner and i believe i have found a good one.

As someone who prefers female dentists, I love that the staff is all women. :) The team - Dr. Phillips, Julie, RDH, Kara, RDA, and the front desk staff - are friendly and thorough. The main reason this rating is 4 rather than 5 stars is that I felt they recommended work I didn't really need, specifically a crown. Dr. Philips recommended a crown on my bottom right molar where I had a root canal in 11/2017. I'm 8 years out from the procedure and neither the endodontist who did the root canal nor the 3 general dentists I saw between 2018-25 said I needed one. Though she said it's common practice to place a crown after a root canal to avoid the tooth from breaking, I'm reluctant to undergo a procedure on a tooth that has caused zero issues for 8 years. At first I thought she found something other dentists missed but later realized that 4 other dentists (endodontist followed by 3 general dentists) would have said something sooner if I really needed a crown. Other than the root canal, there was no abnormal findings clinically or on the x-ray that convinced me to follow Dr. Phillips' recommendation that I get a crown. Now, if I had a cavity, I would get that filled right away to avoid further decay. But when none of my previous dentists over the past 8 years told me I need a crown and I'm not having pain in that tooth, why create work when none is needed? She also recommended fixing a small chip on one of my front teeth and Invisalign from my bottom teeth, though both were cosmetic so I declined. By comparison, my previous dentist of 5 years NEVER recommended any of the above work. To her credit, Dr. Phillips wasn't pushy about getting the work done. When I asked if it's likely I'd lose the tooth over the next few months if I don't get a crown, she couldn't say. I know it's not always possible to predict medical/dental outcomes but her not knowing told me that I didn't have to make a decision right away and I'd likely be fine without the crown. If the recommendation for a crown was made because I had pain and/or a fracture/other abnormal pathology was found, I'd be more on board getting it, especially if I had been going to the practice for years and didn't need dental work beyond cleanings until now. But as a first time patient to the practice, having a procedure recommended for a tooth that hasn't caused pain or other issues for 8 years makes me question whether I truly need the crown or it's financially motivated. I moved back to my home state in late March so I cancelled the cleaning previously scheduled for April. If I were to see them again (as I want to move back to MN in a few years) and they recommended any dental work beyond bi-annual cleanings, I'd get a second opinion before agreeing to anything. However, I'd more likely find another dental practice that is more conservative in their recommendations, similar to the dentist I previously saw prior to moving to MN.
