About 15 min after I had woken from anesthesia, recovering from having 3 wisdom teeth extracted, I…read morewas shuffled in front of a desk and told I had to pay for the entire surgery. No one previously had mentioned that I would be paying for the entire procedure after my surgery and that my insurance would reimburse me at a later date. Instead of the usual practice of billing my insurance and then me for anything they would not cover. I found this office from my insurance network and had no reason to suspect the process would be any different. They waited until I was drugged, and disoriented, with blood and cotton in my mouth, I couldn't even speak let alone argue. Never in my life have I experienced such a predatory practice.

I never write yelp reviews but I feel that I need to warn other people about this practice. In…read moreMarch I got surgery here and while I was under anesthesia they nearly maxed out my credit card. I did not receive any reimbursement from my insurance even though I am fully insured. I found out in October that they were keeping the checks from my insurance even though I already paid them in FULL. I have severed my relationship with my long term dentist who referred me to them and now I need to find a new dentist which is frustrating. I agree with another commenter who calls their behavior predatory.

Jaw Osteonecrosis Review:…read more I came in late Dec 2023 with jaw osteonecrosis. His laser jaw treatments got me pain free. Through his guidance and network of dentists he sent me for a root canal early on - which was relatively painless thanks to the medications he gave me and his communication with the endodontist. (I have a major fear of detal work so this was a big deal for me.) It's been nothing but improvement and new bone growth and recovery since then. Thanks to his guidance and laser treatments, I don't need the flap/jaw replacement surgery. He is super reachable and his assistant, Anika, is also awesome. They both do whatever they can to help and send me off with lots of toothbrushes and oral rinses. He accommodates my busy schedule too. He is pretty pricey, but I am very glad I spent the money. Worth every cent, and Anika works to get insurance reimbursement if possible. 10/10 would recommend.

My experience with Dr. Tetri far surpassed others; he clearly takes pride in his work and making…read moresure his patients are 110% happy. He did beautiful dental and cosmetic work, but also seemed genuinely interested in my feedback throughout the process, to ensure I felt not just good but great about the final product. He was meticulous about color matching to make sure everything looked natural but improved, which was a pain point for other dentists. He also provided a number of cost options and helped me evaluate the best option based on what was important to me. Dr. Tetri managed to do all this while exuding patience and completing my appointments quickly. For me going to the dentist is a bit different than most people. I had a traumatic experience 4 years ago that has not just affected my life but my ability to bring myself to a dentist. So recently a crown broke and I had to find a dentist.... a really good one.... I did my homework and came up with a few in NYC... By fate or luck I ended up in Dr. Tetri chair. He is really really good at what he does...but for me it was refreshing to not be forced or pushed to do more than what was needed.... I mean if you want the works there probably is no better place to get it I have studied the photos he is the best in town...... and someday I may want that but for now I just want a dentist that is great at what he does and loves what he does, a trustworthy Dr. So far that is what I have found... I have much more work to be done but I have found a place where the staff is knowledgeable and pleasant. I could go on and on, BUT if you're looking for dental or cosmetic work, I would absolutely recommend Dr. Tetri. His staff is also really friendly & helpful when it comes to understanding upfront costs/insurance/payment options. Can't thank them enough.

Above and beyond - Dr. Tetri and his entire team have been phenomenal from the first appointment I…read moremade to the last follow-up post surgery. The treatment I received was honest, friendly, and empathetic throughout the long process. I always knew exactly what is being done, what the next steps are, what I should and should not be doing when I get home, and what to do if I need help or have questions. The surgery results have been almost magical in a bad case that I honestly thought was a lost cause. If I have any regret, it's only that I didn't contact Dr. Tetri's office earlier in life.

Please be careful with this Monster Stephen J Klein! He will continuously send you a huge mount of…read morebilling to your home regardless how much you would have paid to him! First, without telling the patient beforehand, Stephen J Klein deceived me into signing for cancer diagnosis without any explanation, which is illegal. I never asked Stephen J Klein to get a cancer diagnosis, but Stephen J Klein deceitfully misled me into thinking I was signing for a tooth extraction. The doctors, nurses, and secretary never mentioned the tumor diagnosis to me. Now Stephen J Klein keeps threatening me and overly charged me 500$. Second, I had already had an x-ray diagnosis done at another clinic. X-ray results showed that Stephen Klein did not successfully complete the bone engraft. This is a very serious medical accident. However, Stephen J Klein still threatened me and overly charged me 500$. Third, during the process of extracting my teeth, Stephen Klein did not wait for the anesthesia to take effect before forcefully extracting my teeth, which caused me tremendous pain. Although I repeatedly emphasized to Stephen Klein that the anesthetic had not taken effect, he did not consider my feelings at all and forcibly extracted the tooth, causing me extreme pain. This is a severe medical malpractice. I was deceived by dentist Hiroko Akimoto into going to this Stephen Klein's clinic, so Hiroko Akimoto should also bear the corresponding responsibility. Hiroko Akimoto is supposed to not send any patients to assist Stephen Klein to keep deceiving more patients. I just want to extract out one tooth, but Stephen J Klein misled me to extract three of my teeth. I definitely rejected it and then Stephen J Klein overly charged me 200$ for so-called consulting fee. This Stephen J Klein is a monster! After one year, Stephen J Klein still keeps threatening me to pay more for him. Never recommend this evil Stephen J Klein!

It turns out I had gingival hyperplasia, which usually happens when your wisdom teeth become impacted. But my wisdom teeth were removed during my college years so I thought there was another issue.

I ended up with terrible pain and a dry socket and although that's a risk of a tooth extraction, I am not sure it wasn't something he did wrong, When I went back with the pain and suggested I had a dry socket, he said I didn't and wanted to give me a steroid injection in the area. I knew that wasn't a good idea as it could delay healing, and when I refused, he started screaming at me in the office! I was in terrible and pain and he was yelling at me for everyone to hear. The staff was nice and embarrassed for me. I left there and went straight to an oral surgeon who said yes I had a dry socket, packed it with medication, and agreed that injecting a steroid was a bad idea. Within 24 hours of seeing the oral surgeon I was no longer in any pain. I would stay away from Dr. Winter!
