I've lived in Franklin much of my young life, and I have been going to this office since my very…read morefirst tooth cleaning, when the practice belonged to Dr. Walsh (who was amazing). Dr. Smyth has been there just as long and has been working on my teeth for a long time as well. So the last time I went to the dentist was three years ago. I brush 2-3 times a day, use mouthwash, and floss when I remember. I started feeling this excruciating pain in the bottom left side of my mouth two months ago, and after suffering for a few weeks, finally bit the bullet and made an appointment. I met with Dr. Abernethy, who I'd never met before. Let me tell you, she is the nicest woman ever. Let's face it, people usually hate dentists, because they're usually hurting you with those little metal hooks when you see them. But Dr. Abernethy was so awesome, try as I might to hate her for scraping my teeth with what looked like an ice pick, I could only feel mildly annoyed. It turned out, my love for all things chocolate (ooh, that chocolate mousse from La Voile) or just for sugar and carbs for that matter, completely rotted out my teeth. Seriously. So I scheduled an appointment for a week later to get some fillings. The reception staff are all very friendly and keep things running smoothly. I arrive for the appointment, and she got started :(. All in all, I received three new fillings and she removed and repaired an old one that had broken (thus the horrible pain that sent me to the dentist to begin with). The procedure was fine, I am terrified of needles, especially the huge Novocaine ones, but the doctor and her hygienist (also a sweetheart) talked me through the whole thing. She started drilling (my favorite part) and I was surprised I couldn't feel anything. My previous experience with dentists and fillings have all been negative, I could feel pain the entire time. Not the case here. It was comfortable, Dr. Abernethy made sure I wasn't in pain at all and described to me exactly what she was doing each step of the way. About an hour later, I emerged with a mouth full of fillings. They healed fine, I had minor discomfort later on when the Novocaine wore off, but nothing severe. I was pretty much up and running immediately after (which again, in my previous experience, getting a filling would have effectively ended my day). I returned again a week later for them to work on the right side of my mouth. This time, I got four new fillings and she removed and repaired an old silver one. Again, I was impressed at how smooth the procedure went. The doctor told me afterwards that in a few of the teeth, the decay was so extensive she was nearly at the nerve when she was drilling. Still I only felt very very minor discomfort (and strangely, not caused by the drill, caused by the filling material which stung a bit). I have to go back one more time to get one or two more this week, however will expect the same high quality service as the past two visits. Dr. Abernethy is almost too nice to be a dentist. I wanted to talk to her during the appointment, but couldn't with my mouth full of tools and whatnot. She is a professional with a sense of humor who is really, really good at fixing teeth. Also, this office accepts most dental insurance. I personally have Blue Cross-Blue Shield, and while I do expect to have to pay a little bit for all the fillings, I don't imagine it to be too extreme.

The hours…read moreare completely inconvenient, and worse than that, they almost never answer the phone--good luck getting a live human when you need to reschedule, ask a question, or even confirm an appointment. On top of the poor communication, the prices are outrageous, especially given the mediocre service and lack of basic patient courtesy. I gave them a fair shot, but the experience was so frustrating and underwhelming that I switched practices almost immediately. Just not a great dental office by any stretch--unresponsive, overpriced, and poorly run. Avoid if you value your time, money, or sanity.

Quote you a price for care and then the day before tell you Ooops we made a mistake add a few $1000.00 dollars to that quote! HORRIBLE! When I was having a tooth removed I had to keep raising my hand because I could feel the pain and I have never had to do that at any other professional office EVER! It's like they are too cheap to numb you up properly. I was really disappointed in this practice and would not recommend anyone in pain to go there! There are many other wonderful dentists in our area and Mint Dental is not one of them!

In February, I made a consultation for my son and was quoted a price for dental work to be done…read more After I agreed to the price, I made the appointment and he went back to have the work done. Once the work was completed the price was $272.00 more than what was quoted. I spoke with the billing department and explained what was quoted and what I agreed to pay. After several phone calls back and forth and checking with the Dr. they agreed to the price that was quoted. I was also told that they didn't accept my dental insurance because it was out of network and the work wasn't covered, therefore, I paid the (quoted) balance due in full. Today, I received a bill from them which showed that they billed my dental insurance the $272.00 and the insurance paid $177.60 with a balance due of $94.40. After speaking with the billing department again, they said that my son was over 18 years old and that he approved the work that was done. I explained that I was the one paying for it and I went with him to the consultation and approved the work, not him. They kept telling me that it was a 2 step process and that's why they charged me the extra money. I had to remind them again that I received a quoted price from the Dr. and if it was going to be more money than what was quoted, they should have included it in the initial quote. Today after going through this ordeal again, they said they would credit my account the $94.40 but still received $177.60 from my insurance which was more than what was agreed upon. Make sure when receiving a quote it's for all the work that needs to be done not just the first step.
