The Scarry and Sad part of about it is the people who are either too preoccupied or too stupid to realize that they are being taken for in this dental office. I was a victim. My insurance paid for my treatment in full, 100%. Dr Gibbs claimed that my Insurance only pays a portion that I would need to pay the difference before my procedure. I paid the difference. I looked up my insurance coverage and was covered 100%. He knew all along the fee for my procedure. it was on the Proposal Treatment Plan he gave to me prior to my procedure. He is a scam artist, not a dentist! I reported him to BBB , My dental Insurance and The Florida Office of the Inspector General. I did get a refund only because I altered them to the fact of what they practice. BE AWARE AND WEARY with this dental office.

I scheduled my appointment without thinking about the fact that I needed to get in and out in an hour to be able to pick up my baby from daycare. I've been to many doctor's appointments and this would have made me stressed because I've found they rarely run on time, however, I've learned this office is super efficient so I actually wasn't that concerned. I told my dental hygienist upfront that I was picking up my son right after and she immediately said let's get you in and out then! When she was done with my cleaning I actually heard her telling Dr. Redd that I had someplace to be. In turn, he was super quick with my check. I really appreciate that and I scheduled my next appointment when I have more time. I actually got out in fifty minutes and I didn't feel like I was rushed at all. I also appreciate how they have little water bottles in the waiting room. They also have cookies. When I'm waiting there's usually just me or just me and one other person so I know they don't over schedule. Whenever anyone asks about a dentist, I always highly recommend Dr. Redd. This office is fantastic.

0-STARS- We have been patients at Friendly Smiles Dental Office for quite some time, which makes…read morethis experience even more disappointing. My 80-year-old father recently visited the office seeking a straightforward and affordable treatment plan. He currently has an upper denture and a lower partial with two remaining attachment teeth that need extraction. The goal was to create a new upper denture and a new lower implant-supported denture, with two implants intended to support and stabilize the new lower denture. We fully understood that he would require bone grafting beforehand due to significant bone loss. My father does not have dental insurance and trusted the office to provide an honest and appropriate treatment plan. Instead, he was presented with a proposal totaling nearly $26,000. As his daughter, and someone with extensive dental knowledge, I was honestly baffled after reviewing the treatment plan and panoramic X-rays. One of the most concerning issues was the use of dental code D7210, which is intended for the surgical removal of an erupted tooth requiring bone removal, tooth sectioning, or flap elevation. The office proposed using this code for the extraction of my father's two lower teeth and charged $419 per extraction under this surgical code. However, the panoramic X-ray and treatment plan clearly indicate that my father already has severe bone loss and requires bone grafting to preserve what little bone remains for future implant support. In this situation, using a surgical extraction code involving bone removal seems completely inappropriate when a simple extraction code could have been used instead. It felt less like patient-centered care and more like an attempt to maximize billing at the expense of an elderly patient who trusted their guidance. Sadly, this experience reinforced the growing concern many people have about large dental chains prioritizing production and overhead costs over honest, ethical treatment planning. I can only say that I am extremely disappointed in the handling of this case and in Dr. Smiley Jr. specifically. My father deserved transparency, compassion, a realistic treatment plan, and to be presented with alternative treatment options that could have better fit his age, condition, and financial situation not what felt like an excessive and unnecessary financial burden.
