    I can't believe I'm writing a review of a dentist but I'm actually excited to go back in January. Wonderful service!

    first of all going into this I made it clear the necessity of going through with dentures. My…read moreentire life I had nothing but problems with my teeth, and when I have the chance financially I could be rid of them for good. So I called Kessler Park Dental and they told me there that this was something they could do if i so desired ? So I thought, well they performed a write up on cost on paper with a 500 dollar charge for there so called preferred pricing and another 35,000 for the saving of these teeth that's if there were no other issues (yea right). I made it clear I wanted dentures and asked the dentist he tells me that he felt uncomfortable pulling in his words "teeth that can be saved "? Its very plain to me that this set up is very capitalized in a money making machine. Never mind what the patient wants. A few weeks later I had a crown come off and called them to put it back on. Went in, they said the tooth needed to be removed. And guess what, I asked to remove the tooth I was told they did not do extractions there, WAIT A MINUTE. They lied to me, denture service includes extractions, he decided to do nothing at all sends me up front for a referral for an oral surgeon. Clear across the other side of Dallas. And charges me 147 dollars for doing nothing. And to top it off I had to find my crown on a table I guess they thought they were going to keep it. Shameful just plain terrible, I wanted to warn anyone who may assume that they have a say in what happens to there teeth its plain to see that this dentist is only after the money.

    We have all had that one bad experience with a dentist that made you vow never to trust any dentist…read moreagain. During my intial visit my guard was up! I thought they wanted to hurt me, not pay attention to my needs while in the chair and more interested in the money or reimbursements received rather than patient care. To my surprise Kessler Park Dental is totally opposite of a sterotypical dental office. They are not a puppy mill and they truly pay attention to detail. I was impressed with the level of knowledge the dental staff have. You can tell they work as a team and that Dr. James takes good care of them. Outside of routine dental services I was surprised they off a service that whitens your teeth without the downfalls of getting veneers. Its called micro etching. The results are amazing at the fraction of the cost. I am now a believer that not all dentist are bad dentist!!! If your looking for a dentist don't hesitate, Kessler dental won't let you down.

    This is the one. If you're looking for a new dentist, just go here. Absolutely the best experience…read moreI have had in a dental office, ever. Had an appointment at 10am, out before 11am. Julia at the front desk was so kind and helpful in getting insurance, paperwork, and services scheduled and ready to go. It was totally seamless. The dentist himself and dental hygienist both delivered excellent service and walked me through every step of the x-rays and cleaning. Totally cool that they were able to capture a 3D image of my teeth so I could see in detail what they looked like, including what my bite pressure was (didn't know this was possible to measure so easily). As far as the cleaning itself, it wasn't painful at all and the dentist made sure I felt comfortable and relaxed. They give you a pair of sunglasses to block the light, they have music playing in the room, and a TV with movies if you want to watch something. The cleanliness of the office was pristine, and parking was available right out front of the building. Super easy. I'm new to Dallas and I am so glad I chose to come here. I will be back.

    My dear and friend dentist of 30 years died unexpectedly a few years ago. I had just chipped a…read morefront tooth and needed to find someone fast. I called West Davis and they got me in quickly with Dr. Ambriz who is a skilled cosmetic dentist and he did a beautiful job for me. He is no longer there though. I was having a tooth ache recently and called for an appointment. I had researched and decided to choose Dr. Enoksen. Took a little while to get in to see him but it was worth the wait. X-rays were taken and he showed me (gotta love the technology) that I had a necrotic tooth. He said the 2 possible solutions were a root canal, which he would try for first, or extraction and a bridge. Made another appointment. He is so booked that it always takes a while. He worked on me for 2 hours and could only get 2 of 3 canals. Needed another appointment for him to try to find the third. Came back, he worked and worked on it. Said he liked a challenge and he got it. I was impressed. Others would have given up and gone the other route. Some dentists just do what they are trained to. Some have a gift and care. Dr. Enoksen is one of those. He's also a very nice man. I hope he will always be my dentist from here on. I should also say intitially I was a bit put off by the size of West Davis Dental, the feel is a bit factory like. You don't get the same assistant every time, but everyone is good, and nice. It's only about 10 minutes from where I live which is another plus.

    Overall the office just wasn't the right fit for me, (this is not to take away from how KIND…read moreeveryone in the office was) the 2 stars is strictly due to the atmosphere- in my opinion the office was a little hectic everyone was kinda running around / all over the place. It also did not feel very sanitary because of how fast everyone is moving , my dental hygienist rushed through my cleaning because they were running behind and about to close so the dental assistant finished my cleaning... overall the dentist and receptionist were very kind. But I won't be back

    Third time here, and they are still on point! I'm grateful to have a wonderful dental experience. I…read moredo, look forward to getting my teeth cared for, because of the staff here. Shout to Melissa for being the first person I spoke to who gave me a warm welcome, deeply listened to my billing & insurance concerns, and referred me to a team member for additional assistance. Applause for Samantha who helped me w/ my dental credit and thoroughly informed me on what to expect with the additional services. Big smile for Jessica the dental photographer. She was friendly, positive, caring and gentle. She also was thorough -- she took an extra picture of an area that had some sensation (no pain or discomfort). Dr. Cunningham was approachable, open to my questions, and did not seem rushed. She took the time out to show me what was going on with my teeth in the X-ray and educated me on some of the dental terms. I never knew that my wisdom teeth are already there, just underneath my gums. Cool to see where they were via X-ray. Keeley was THE best hygienist I was paired up with. She was gentle, took the time to educate me, pointed out the dental areas that I need to be more mindful of, gave me great tips on how to get to hard to reach molars: relax mouth halfway, instead of opening mouth all the way. She also said for gum health a reading of 1-3 are healthy, if there were any 4s, they would address it. Also, last interesting I learned is that tartar builds up after 48 hours of plaque not being properly removed. My mouth is really happy to get the care it deserves :-) Thank you Mint of Oak Cliff/Bishop Arts!

    For the longest time, like everyone else I've heard the radio ads for Mint Dentistry like an…read moreoverplayed record. I finally decided to give them a try twice this year & regret both visits but I will stick to my experience at the Bishop Arts location. My appointment was scheduled for 1:45pm. Granted this took quite some arranging since I have braces with an orthodontist almost an hour away & normally have to make 3 appointments just to get things done with both. The staff knew well in advance & I reminded them yet again at my appointment that my ortho appointment was at 4:20pm giving them at LEAST 2 hours for a cleaning. I arrived on time for my appointment but did not see the doctor until 3PM. If the appointment wasn't vital I would've left. As I sat waiting, I had to notify my ortho I wouldn't make it on time in the mist of that someone came in to ask for out-of-pocket money for a "deep cleaning". Keep in mind I just had the exact same services done 6 months prior, but she was requesting almost $100. I was already irritated so I set up a payment plan because that didn't seem right to me & needed to speak with my insurance. Furthermore, I didn't leave the office until 4PM! The doctors response "This is why I tell patients to not make appts back to back because you never know how long an appt will be & I'm the only doctor here." Excuse me ? Never have I ever been at the dentist for almost 2.5hrs for a cleaning & you being the only doctor is not my issue. If you cannot maintain your schedule don't book patients BACK TO BACK ! Ultimately, I was correct regarding the costs & they had to refund me which took a couple weeks. The office seriously needs to reevaluate their scheduling system. Its clear one doctor cannot handle the office workload without creating an inconvenience for patients. Secondly, the finance coordinator needs to file insurance claims first to validate coverage versus assuming & incorrectly charging patients. If you have ever paid out-of-pocket, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND checking your dental EOBs to see if your insurance covered what you paid. Because unfortunately you cannot trust the billing department to audit their claims & properly reimburse patients. It also seems to be a habit of the finance department & the doctor to suggest a "deep cleaning" to gauge extra funds from patients. Google reviews can attest to this. I'm only giving 2 stars because of the staff I encountered outside of the doctor & finance person. Especially the young lady who polished my teeth! She was quick & her energy was amazing. Overall, this experience alone has made me second guess trusting any other dental office. I don't care what the radio says, I do NOT recommend Mint!
