I've been coming to the small Gurtner Dental offices for dental care all of my life, so I've had…read moreboth of the Gurtners - Maggie and Stephen - as my dentist at different points (one works primarily with kids, the other adults). They're definitely a great pair; I can only assume that I don't outright hate or fear going to the dentist as much as the average American because I've had relatively good experiences with these two. I won't even pretend that I've always been the best at taking care of my teeth (boy, was I a challenge to deal with when I had braces and did absolutely nothing in the ways of caring of my teeth!), but they don't hold it against me (openly anyway). These days though my visits are actually usually fast and pretty painless, with the occasional additional matter that requires a little more than a basic check-up. Whenever I come in the staff is always interested in hearing about new developments in my life, which is sweet of them. And the office, which isn't the biggest place in the world never seems too packed or noisy, which is a plus in my book considering that I can be a little stressed waiting for my appointment to start as I hope there isn't a new problem with my teeth. I definitely think this is a great little business run by a great pair of people, and I totally recommend this office to anyone in the area who's looking for a new dentist.

I have been taking my children to Pediatric Dentistry South for 13 years now. I have 4 very…read moredifferent children with very different personalities. In fact, my 6 year old son really does not like going to the dentist at all! The hygienist really takes special care of him. She talks him through every step she takes and explains to him what to expect and when he gets really upset, which happens often, she backs down a little and clams him down. She has been working with him for three years now and every time she sets a goal to get a little further with him on the cleaning process. Seriously he is so much less nervous to go there now and even left with a smile this last time. The first time we took him when he was 3, our experience was a little rough because of how upset he got so when we went back we made sure to talk to them ahead of time and let them know our concerns with him needing to take things a little slower! They were and still are three years later, happy to accommodate us! The other two younger children ages 5 and 2 just love it. In fact my two year old went for the first time this week and she did really well! They were ready for her to be upset, knowing her older brother, but she did so well and felt so comfortable that they did not even need to do anything special to keep her calm! In addition I also have a teenager that has had dental issues, including TMJ. They really take the time to check on that when she comes in and have referred us to a specialists each time it was needed. Last thing and I will stop rambling. When my two year old went for the first time this past week, the dr made it a point to come and let me know that her tonsils were really big. I appreciate the extra attention he gave to her and for letting us know that it may be a concern! Really 5 stars all around!

The Dentist did not even take time to introduce herself to me, and was very blunt and uncaring with treatment plan. I understand the practice is busy, but you should still take the time to make people feel comfortable, especially when it comes to dealing with their children. After one visit there, I immediately switched to another practice and could not be happier.

Bite guard: was never contacted to come pick it up. Called and left 4 voicemails with no return call. Had to go into office to ask for it. Caught office while leaving for lunch and the receptionist gave me attitude and claimed she had left me voicemails, I had none. Dentist did not have me try it on. When I wear it overnight my teeth placement adjust and take a few hours to feel right again. Cap pain: was told to stop chewing gum if that is what makes it hurt. ***Update to 5 months later*** I had to go into a different dentist for extreme pain in gums above said molar. I had an infection that "had been growing for a long time" and had spread to my sinuses. I had to have my entire tooth removed and a bone graft implanted costing me hundreds. Would not recommend.

Recently, my husband lost his job from Covid and I was in a car accident limiting my hours! He recently got a new job and we waited the three months for insurance. Our children's six month appointment was scheduled today and we were so glad that we could could keep our appointment and provide them with the new dental insurance card! My husband actually emailed the insurance company this morning to make sure everything would be ok and the insurance provider provided him with what he needed to give to the doctors office. We got the kids out of school 15 to 20 minutes early because we live 25 minutes away. We drove to the office and provided them with the new insurance card. The office staff proceeded to tell us that they called the number on the card, and couldn't find any of our children on record. Also, first let me preface this by stating that two of my children have severe anxiety already! They tell my husband that he should try to call and see if he can get a hold of someone because there is nothing they can do at the moment. We have now been sitting in the waiting room for about 15 minutes and my son is getting very anxious and physically sick by the minute from his nerves ! I go through my email and find what I'm looking for and I go up to the window and show them my husband's benefits and the dental package that the company has sent to him justifying his benefits! The office staff was incredibly rude, they basically would not go out of their way to help us in anyway to make sure that my children could be seen now with their appointments! We also had to make the. six months in advance! They office staff proceeded to make us sit in the waiting room until we got an answer back from our insurance company. In the meantime, we finally get a hold of someone on the phone and we then go to the front desk and they told us we were too late now! They tell us after 20 minutes and all of this time wasted that we could pay out of pocket, which we would have done originally or at least until someone from the insurance company returned their call! But they wanted payment you front even though we would have given them our credit card info just in case! They then told us it was too late and they could maybe take two out of the three kids because they needed to leave by 5 o'clock and they have another person coming in. They said they just couldn't accommodate all three and we would have to make another appointment and come back! This is completely unacceptable especially being a pediatric dentistry! The way we were treated and how smug and cruel they were especially in front of my three children is completely unacceptable! Needless to say, we will not be going back there ever again! I truly hope no one ever has to deal with something like this even during this pandemic and already stressful time! I hope no one has to experience the humiliation, panic and inhuman experience that my three children had to witness today! When our world is already a scary place and you try to teach children to see the good in everyone especially with Doctor's and we as adults try to model that behavior to our children, it's times like this, it makes me absolutely sick that our children are seeing how cruel and mean adults can be! I am absolutely appalled with Dr. Cupelli's office staff's child like behavior , their inability to accommodate my and my children's needs and and their non professional manner! Dr. Cupelli never made an appearance either and I am sure I was heard! A heartbroken mother of three

I don't think she is qualified to be a dental tech. I watched her do my son after myself and the same thing. We will not be returning here EVER. We were both complete in under twenty minutes and she attempted to reschedule before we were done. No X-rays taken on me(first time here) or my child's filing was not completed which was the whole point of this visit for him. The dentist stated he would be right back to fill it but we were basically pushed out the door by the tech and she said reschedule to get it filled when the dentist clearly said he would be right back. DO NOT GO HERE! I never leave reviews but had to here.

The tooth roots were very stubborn to get out, but Dr. Khandji was excellent, pausing every so often to make sure I was feeling okay. At one point he added a little more novocaine just to make sure I remained comfortable, and he got the job done very well! I liked that Dr. Khandji listend and answered all of my questions before the procedure. He explained to me everything to do after the proceedure. He wanted me back the next day just to check and make sure I was healing correctly, which I appreciated. I was also super impressed with his office staff. His assistant was an oral surgeon, was very kind and helpful in the proceedure. The front office staff was great -- they got me into the office the very next day to deal with my painful, broken tooth. Overall, it was an excellent experience. I will return to this site and get my tooth implant and I will utilize their services for any other dental work I need. I was very, very pleased with every aspect of their service. His offices are very warm and profesional which put me at immediate ease. His office and services would get a 10 from me!
