Great dental office! First visit after and everyone was kind and thorough. Nicest practice I've ever been to.

I have been in the dental field for over 8 years. I went to see Dr. Truono for 2 fillings which…read moreturned into Trismus. The worst experience ever. Then he went away to help his daughter move which left me without care and I was referred to a pain center $1100 out of pocket later that did not fix the issue. Then Dr. Truono offers me a $500 credit towards service at his office. I called to use that credit and now I am being told that I am not a good fit for the practice and they will not schedule me. I was always pleasant and respectful to him and his staff. I am at a loss of words to be told I am not a good fit for a practice and denied services and the credit. No one called me to have any discussion. I have never. This is a first. To be dismissed from a practice and still needing treatment with not referrals or conversation is beyond the scope of professionalism.

My husband and I have been patients of Dr. Daniel's for over 20 years. I have always been treated…read morewith excellent care and professionalism from the moment I step through the door until my appointment is over. Thank you Blue Diamond Dentistry for making my dental appointments calm and relaxing and taking such good care of me. I had a filling put in today and they were all awesome.

I wish the experience I had with Blue Diamond Dental was a nightmare but no it's my reality.If I…read morewould tell whomever that the receptionist the most rude, condescending liar I've encountered in any medical setting I've been to. She is the first person either on the phone or face to face that you encounter when going to the practice. She called me on Tuesday 1225pm, after my dentures had been dropped off to office at 1030am. She called not to tell me to come pick up the body part made SPECIFICALLY for me, mouth. No she called me to taunt and harass me that it wld need to be a discussion between them and my counselor regarding how I acted and I was ungrateful/ yea this demented psychopath called me to taunt harass reprimand chastise me while saying lies. The 5 visits I had never had an issue I said what I wanted and what I didn't which is my right I'm the one wearing them. And then when I was told by the dentist they'd be ready that following Wed 9/20. I was asking him due to an upcoming event with myself my children my partner that we had pushed back because of the dental treatment and awaiting the outcome. When I called while stating what I was told she began to get smart and irritated of me asking so I hung up on her I wasn't gonna continue trying to talk to her smart demeaning self. From that when I called the lab and the nice gentleman informed me that they dropped off my case, the dentures and my personal top denture off to the office at 1030am. But again the psychopath never called to tell me that she called to taunt me. I called the Wilmington police aa a civil matter asked them for assistance because the dental office was refusing to give me, the patient, my made for me body part. The officer was in awe and they LIED to the officer and told him the department of labor Voc Rehabilitation had cancelled IT. Cancelled what after I've had this treatment extractions and now the finished product what was cancelled? It was a LIE their psychopath receptionist and whomever else in that office blatantly LIED. And the dentist office had already been paid for the authorization for the treatment and product for me This matter is disgusting to say the least, a professional dentist Dr, Daniels employs such a demented evil unprofessional LIAR. So the police officer said ma'am I'm sorry but you need to escalate this matter especially since they had been paid. And that's exactly what I did the following day. From the governors office to the leadership of the agency that sends patients there , the board of professional regulation the question was asked, what in the world is wrong with them refusing to give a patient their pad for body part made especially for them? I wait she knew how important what they meant to me and because she thinks she runs something maybe at the front desk she does, she means nothing at all to me Don't like me oh well, could care less. Then said when she called to taunt me that I was a problem every visit, well the video on my phone of each visit says that's a lie. And If I was then why did the dentist continue treatment then? Why did she fake speak and say goodbye with my name at each visit? Something I should be so excited about I am not and because of this fiasco, when my husband called asked if he could pick them up, she told him NO, bc I was ungrateful. This psychopath really taunted and withheld my dentures because she could. So if anyone reading this is considering there proceed with caution. I find it interesting that the google and YELP reviews with low ratings all have in common "the rude light brown" lady at the front desk. Some reviews go back 2 years, so nearly 8,9 different patients said the same thing, need I say more.

I highly recommend crescent dental for all dental needs. The office is clean and staff is very…read morewelcoming!

HORRIBLE!!!! ZERO STARS. They do horrible work!!!! You have to continue to follow-up with repairs…read morefrom work they have done. I have spent over $10,000.00k in their office in less than a year on root canals and crowns (with insurance). Both crowns have fallen out in less than 6 months (2 of them), and they do not even match my other teeth. They recemented them back in (charged office visits for repairs on crap work). I cannot even book an appointment because of their cancellation policy. Mind you, I spoke directly to the office and had her note my file that I had not cancelled an appointment and yet they continue to state I did not cancel within 48 hours of the appointment and therefore I am no longer allowed to schedule! So here I am with a mouthful of very expensive broken teeth that need repairs, don't match my remaining teeth and cannot even make an appointment. I can only call on Wednesday mornings and hope someone cancelled. I am in the process of obtaining a new dentist as my last visit to Crescent Dental, 2 weeks ago, resulted in the dentist breaking a perfectly good tooth while repairing the broken crown. So now I have to pay a new dentist to correct the 10k worth of work that I had done at Crescent Dental. I would NOT recommend Crescent Dental. They do not do good work, they are unprofessional, rude, and simply looking to get paid. Yes, they are more expensive than other dentist (Priemer Dentist which means they bill insurance the highest amount and you get stuck paying much more than other local dentist. DO YOUR HOMEWORK!!!!

Extremely horrific, I have been getting treatment here for myself who is a single mother for 3-5…read moreyears now. I have paid out of pocket to finally have my teeth taking care of with "hopes" to have nothing short of an amazing experience, however I went into my visit today to see the awful, dismissive errortic temporary ORTHO doctor who never introduced himself at all. I had nothing but joy bringing myself to this office and spending over $6,000 to have two times of Invisalign treatment paid, until they changed the ORTHO DOCTOR. I was anticipating an amazing doctor who loved his job and people, however this is not the case. I also brought my son to this office over 2 years ago who is currently still in braces. We both are patients of this office and have been for a very long time. I have expressed my concerns of my level of care and I had a returned phone call about 8 months ago from an amazing woman was at the time the district manager who resolved my situation and explained she would do what was right and needed to solve the issue the Ortho doc was causing. I am told she is no longer the DM. I have seen 2-3 girls work in the scheduling department and all left since this doctor has came to gentle touch smiles. I spoke my concerns following today's indicent with girls at front desk and over 3 of them all said they always have issues with this same doctor and that he does not speak to people well. The girls at front desk were very understanding and upset that I faced the doctor demanding that I went outside for my old retainers when it was a visit to get my new retainers and my sons visit from the spaces THE "ortho doctor created" for him to fix. He comes in and asks every time what are we doing today and always tells the staff girls " I didn't know we didn't do this yet" he is extremely unorganized and unprofessional. My blood sugar was dropping when he demanded me to go out to my car to get old retainers while it was raining to see if they fit to his liking when I expressed I needed to be rescanned because the spacing. He didn't validate my feelings, he didn't assure me he would fix anything instead demanded for the trays I went out to get trays and came back to him demanding in a room full patients that he was flopping back and forth between. My son not only seen this man humiliate me and profile me being a hispanic woman he also spoke to me like a dog demanding I go outside during a time of my sugar dropping, instead of trying my new trays in. Again I never experienced any issues here until this ORTHO doctor came into this office. When I explained I didn't want to show him due to being embarrassed in front of a room full of patients the teeth that I feel there is spacing in he then refused to treat me he didn't ask me why or anything. He stormed off yelling in front of over 15 patients in the waiting room " NOBODY TALK TO HERRRRRR" (nobody listened to him they actually said he should leave) including staff. I did express I felt to he was a narcissistic man and being condescending, he tore his gloves off walking near me to front desk to the point I thought he was going to harm me because his temper and body movement. I spoke to the new manager who was there and he explained to me he couldn't give me the newer district managers phone number and that the TEMP ORTHO Doctor had a right to no longer treat me or my son when we are near our last 2 months of treatment. He left attachments on my teeth didn't scan me for a retainer instead the office is trying to kick me and my minor son out when my son should never be punished and humiliated with spacing this doctor created and when I asked him bout it he said it was apart of his plan to later close my sons teeth, but then today said "oh I thought we took his braces off and we all finished", again another very serious moment for a minor and myself he takes and makes it like its ok to forget what his "plan of action was". I never got a returned call to assure me my son and I could finish treatment from New District manner.

An hour and a half waiting to see a dentist and still waiting. The wait time gets longer and longer…read moreeach time with no help from anyone. No one has an answer for anything.
