"Good enough" isn't good enough when you're talking about your choppers, which we all hope will last us well into our golden years. Enter JD Howard Dental. I've been coming here for nearly 15 years and I'm very happy with my teeth and how they're treated here. I'm 55, so I've been around the block a bit with dentists. Are they expensive? Yes. Dentistry is expensive. Are they WORTH it? Yes. You will be treated very well (like an old friend), and your teeth will be the best that they can be. I have insurance, but it's not bottomless - the hygienists at JD Howard (Nichole, to be exact) go out of their way to advise me how best to utilize my insurance dollars, and are hip to the fact that I don't have an endless wallet. Bottom line: you want your teeth in the best possible hands? Go to JD Howard.

I've been a patient at JD Howard dental for approximately seven years now and I have always been…read morehappy with the stellar service. I, as are many of the patients at JD Howard dental, am a bona fide sufferer of dentophobia. If not for modern dentistry, and all of the amenities offered with regards to comfort, I'm quite certain all of my teeth would rot and fall right out of my mouth. I know many other people feel the same way and that's why we search out dental practices that provide sedation dentistry without judgment. My phobia is so bad that I require sedation with regular dental cleanings. Apparently, sedation dentistry is no longer a major part of this practice because I don't see it anywhere on the website. Until recently that form of sedation for me was nitrous oxide. Though ironically, I have never really had much of a fear of the needle when requiring Novacaine. I know that's a little unusual, but it's true. Recently, I have heard that the practice was sold by Dr. Howard and bought by a corporation. The things that I'm experiencing there now are pretty typical of businesses that are bought by corporations and the biggest issue there is the patient always seems to come last and the bottom line is always first. As a result, I have lost the nitrous oxide for basic dental care. I've also noticed dentists have left the practice as have hygienists. There's always a reason for that. I had an appointment for the hygienist for which I was given a prescription for Halcyon, a benzodiazepine. The consent paperwork that I was given stated that the norm for this is Lorazepam or Ativan unless contraindicated. I have no health history that would exclude the use of Ativan. This is what happened. At approximately 10 to 15 minutes after I took the Halcyon, I knew there was going be a problem because that stuff hit me really hard. It hit me so hard in fact that the dental hygienist had to assist me from the waiting room to her room and back again. I have almost no recollection of anything that happened after that. I remember the hygienist taking my blood pressure and hearing the diastolic number, but I don't remember much of the actual work, I don't remember my teeth being polished, and I don't remember any examination or discussion with the dentist, which is particularly disturbing. I left the hygienist room with my swag bag, and once again her assistance to the waiting room. The worst part of that is that anytime I have dental work at JD Howard dental I'm now going to be out of commission for the rest of the day. Can't drive, can't work, etc. I'm in health care so I obviously can't work after that. That means I have to take a whole day off with vacation time which is completely unacceptable. With nitrous, none of the things cited above, were even remotely an issue. I finished my cleaning or whatever other dental work it was, made my way to my car, and drove myself home. After questioning, it has been brought to my attention that nitrous oxide services will no longer be offered by the hygienist. So my question becomes, who made that decision? Oh wait, it's a corporate thing and likely a refusal to pay for their certification, or accept any associated risk. At any rate, and in light of all of the above, I have no other choice, but to seek dental services elsewhere. I am a recent Snowbird and I have found a full service sedation dental practice in St. Petersburg, Florida, who offers nitrous for dental cleanings. After a lot of consideration, I have elected to go with them and have my first appointment in January '25. I only chose a Florida practice because I couldn't find sedation dentistry in this area. This recent appointment at this facility was unfortunately my last. The practice under corporate ownership has become something no longer desirable to me and judging by recent Yelp reviews, I'm not the only one.

He and his staff are warm, caring, and professional. I appreciate that he does an excellent job of communicating with MY office before, during, and after treatment and will always coordinate as needed if we need to do any treatment during the patient's time in braces, they are great with that as well. I can't pretend to understand this platform's algorithm for allowed/featured and "not recommended" reviews. It sure can seem arbitrary and when you ask service reps apparently no one knows how this secret sauce works... it just happens! That said, I am perplexed that this office has only 5 featured write ups but 19 that fall under "not recommended." Seems strange. One of those unfeatured posters tho suggested that the doctor was trying to just get more money out of the reviewer's son. I can say without question that that is NOT how Dr Lenk does business! I have seen him time and again reduce fees and no-charge certain services to help out patients in need. He has historically been very generous seeing kids with NH Medicaid. 60% of the state's dentists do NOT see those patients because the low reimbursement rates result in the practice often taking a loss. So while that unfair accusation was buried in "not recommended" section (along with a dozen good looking reviews!) I couldn't stand by without speaking up in defense of Lenk Orthodontics. They are friendly, knowledgeable, and quite fair. Certainly where this dentist will take his kids when they need braces in a few years!

Stephanie spoke with us for about 15 minutes and conducted some x rays and spoke about a plan for her teeth. She was very nice, helpful and professional. Dr. Lenk then entered the room and started his presentation. He got off track a bit about 10 minutes into the conversation. I then asked a couple questions to get him back on track and he then abruptly stated "It was too hot in the room, I was too aggressive and asked us to leave ". The other four of us in the room looked at each other awkwardly as he exited the room. Stephanie, his assistant said " I'm not sure what just happened". My daughter thought he was joking. He then poked his head back in the exam room and said, " Leave now". Needless to say, Dr. Lenk was extremely unprofessional and couldn't handle a couple normal questions from a seated position, not loud or out of line any parent would ask. There was zero aggression directed toward him. We left like normal, adults without a scene and upset we wasted out time with such an unprofessional person.
