If you are looking for a regular dentist office for basic service, like a cleaning, this Dacula…read morepractice isn't it. The Good: The end result of the cleaning service is very good, but not the best. The Bad & The Ugly: After a cleaning service, a dentist typically comes in and evaluates or inspects the teeth. At least, this has always been my experience elsewhere. At this place, the dentist marches in with dollar signs in his eyes as though you walked in with 15 missing teeth, an overbite, and a misaligned jaw. It is clear that the objective is not to give you a clean bill of good oral health, rather, it is to tell you a host of services that you "need" that they are all to happy to go ahead and jot down in your file and get you set up with an appointment ASAP! I have a reasonable tolerance for nonsense, having dealt with the public in my career, so while the salesman, er, dentist was rattling off procedures, I just said "Hmm, hmmm." After he left the room, I was more than ready to go. But wait! The hygienist asked me to wait a moment while she left the room. That "moment" turned into what felt like 15 minutes of nothing, so my patience did expire, and I made it clear that I needed to go and asked WHAT IS THE WAIT FOR? That's when she owned up and said that they were pricing out all of the procedures and were creating a price list. Why the secrecy? Why couldn't the wait request have included an advisement that they were working on that? I'll tell you why, it's because they knew that there was NO way in you-know-where that I was going for that schtick! I had been here twice, and BOTH times, it was the same song and dance. Continue to wait? Nope! I left! Things may have been different if I have said, "hey Doc, I don't like xyz about my teeth, can you make a recommdation?" But, to just get a cleaning and having an it-ain't-broke-but-we-can-fix-it experience is beyond the pale for a medical facility! That's just like going to the service department at a car dealership. You go in for a simple oil change, but they come back to you with a price list for an urgent engine replacement and a new radiator. Smarmy, grimy, slimy to say the LEAST! If this practice is hard up for cash, how about getting out in these streets and offering services to those who actually need them? I see jacked-up mouths literally everywhere I go. Literally. Stop trying to make money by the hard upselling. They will see me again on the 12th of NEVER! I do NOT recommend for standard dental care services!

There's nothing he can't handle. You don't feel any pain, except for a little pinch that would last about 5-7 seconds as he shoots up your gums to numb you very well. He leaves you for about 5-7 minutes while the meds go to work. He comes back and prick you in the places where he's going to work while asking you if you feel this or that. The high powered stuff he has, you don't feel a thing!! You won't even realize after a tooth has been taken out. Now, as this place is pricey, keep in mind you're dealing with a specialist and not a general dentist. After all is said and done, he gives you a prescription for some high powered pain meds, which I love, and you will never feel any pain at all. Depending on what type of insurance you have dictates what you will pay out of pocket. However as I did say, depending on the procedure you're having can possibly run up into the thousands. If you need a specialist, check this guy out. There's nothing like a pain free specialist on your side.

My teeth and gums are back to being healthy and I would spend every penny do to it again if I had to. (Going to try my BEST not to get to that point this time though by going to my checkups on time! :) Thanks Dr. David Q! I'm confident smiling again.
