We liked it…read morefor many years, but recently (2025), every time we take our kids for a cleaning we're told they have 2-5 new cavities. I asked how our kids could have so many cavities when West Main claims to have properly sealed their teeth and they said, "Oh, that happens, sometimes the sealer falls out." I took both kids to my dentist (who I've gone to for 20 years) and she said there was decay under most of the sealers, which means the teeth weren't prepared properly before the sealer was applied. My son had 5 cavities under the sealer and my daughter had 8! No wonder the sealer was falling out. Now I'm paying to have all improperly applied sealers removed and replaced by a competent dentist. West Main Dental really failed my kids. Use West Main Dental at your own risk.

After moving, I saw this dentist for a checkup and was told I needed seven fillings, even though my previous dentist had only recommended monitoring those areas. Trusting their judgment, I went ahead with the work. After the fillings were placed, I experienced persistent dental pain. It hurt to bite down, floss, and even eat moderately cool foods --something as simple as room-temperature toothpaste became painful. I returned multiple times hoping for relief, but only minor adjustments, such as polishing, were made, and the discomfort never fully went away. Years later, I finally decided to switch dentists after living with ongoing pain. My new dentist noted that one of the most painful fillings might not be possible to fix due to its size and that another had a shadow near the nerve, meaning I may now need a root canal ("Doesn't it hurt?" my new dentist asked, surprised. "The other ones hurt more" I replied). I can't help but wonder if some of these fillings were unnecessary in the first place. I wish I had questioned the extent of the treatment before agreeing to it, as I am now dealing with chronic dental pain and uncertainty about my health. I may never be able to enjoy food without pain again, and I'm deeply worried about what my future holds in terms of dental work and discomfort. I'm sharing my experience so others can make informed decisions about their own dental care and hopefully avoid what I'm going through. The other 1 star review here mirrors my experience exactly, down to the flippant attitude regarding botched fillings. I wish I had seen it before.

I was suspicious as I had never had a cavity, brushed my teeth three times a day, and was very diligent about my oral care. So I decided to go back to Dr. Haussermann to get a second opinion even though that meant a long drive for me. He told me that none of the things the other dentist said that were wrong with me were true. I had none of the treatments and have been back to seeing Dr. Haussermann ever since. It has been 20 years since I switched back to Dr. Haussermann and my teeth and gums are great. It is so important to me that I see a dentist I can trust like Dr. Haussermann.

When I do call, the staff are often rude and abrasive, leaving me feel unheard. They have charged the wrong insurance leaving me with an unpaid balance they say I must pay before scheduling an appointment or before they will submit a claim to the correct insurance, as well as contacted and discussed my information with my parents despite me being over the age of 18. While my in person experience has been great, the headaches I have had due to this negligence often has me wishing to go to another dental practice in town. When I called to attempt and correct my information the most recent time, the office staff began telling me about my brothers insurance and balances.

I will from now on. I will not be advising people to go to this dentist however.
