    My experience at Ideal Dental in Decatur began with a warm greeting as I approached the desk. The…read morecheck-in process was seamless, thanks to Raven, who also throughly explained my treatment plan, follow-up visits and payment at the end of my visit. Tonie engaged me in conversation as she took my x-rays and made sure I was comfortable before seeing the doctor. Dr. Avery was also very personable throughout my appointment. Her relaxed and calm spirit helped keep me grounded, we had friendly conversation, and she made sure all my questions were answered. On my second visit my interactions with Emily and the hygienist were also very easy and pleasant.Great, great team in Decatur ...I'll be back!

    I'm honestly really angry about how my root canal was handled. I was stuck in the chair for over 3…read morehours and still left with my tooth not even finished and basically open. On top of that, I was only then told I'd need multiple more visits just to complete a single root canal, which was never made clear to me beforehand. The whole appointment felt disorganized. There was water spraying everywhere at one point, and I even saw tools dropped on the floor and then picked up again instead of being replaced. That's not something you expect when you're sitting through a dental treatment like this, and it made the whole experience feel really unprofessional. Dr. Fuller seemed unsure of what she was doing, even though she kept insisting everything was going well. But after sitting there for hours with no real progress or completion, it was hard to believe that. From my perspective, things clearly weren't going smoothly. I don't recommend getting a root canal done by Dr. Fuller. Now I'm left with an open tooth, more visits I wasn't prepared for, and honestly a lot of anxiety about going back to finish this. I feel frustrated and disappointed, and I really regret how this has turned out so far.

    Small dental practice in Decatur with free parking in the back. First time I had been here now that…read moreit is run my Dr. Levine. Truly a phenomenal experience from start to finish. Didn't have to wait long for my appointment and everyone was pleasant and professional. The dental hygienist that saw me was Lynne and she was very personable and did a great job cleaning my teeth. Barely felt a thing and was done in under an hour. Dr. Levine was also exceptional, and did a great job explaining everything. Under Dr. Levine's management they have a variety of new tools like a 3D scanner as well as other treatment options that they didn't have before. If you need a dentist in Decatur this is definitely the place I would recommend.

Dr. Levine is highly skilled, has all of the newest dental tools for general dentistry and is in close contact with dental specialists, which I had the unfortunate opportunity to have to use. I cracked a crowned molar that was not able to be saved. We are in the process of growing bone to hold future implant. She does it all and knows dentistry. I know because I am the kind of guy that (interviews) get into their history. She is well seasoned. Great Dentist, Great Office and Great Staff.

    I agree that Dr. Jernigan is the best in every way. I feel really lucky to have been accepted as a…read morepatient. I notice that the only negatives at all in the reviews have to do with interactions with a receptionist. I've not had any bad encounters. Moreover, that would certainly not be a reason not to see an expert, conservative (yes, in the best ways), congenial, and reasonably priced dentist! I'd give more than 5 stars if I could.

    I was looking for a new local dentist since my other one is across town in a bad traffic area and…read morehas changed staff. I called about seeing Dr Jernigan and mentioned that I had an emergency situation (a 3-unit bridge had detached completely) and asked if they do any kind of emergency appointments. I got a very snappy, "NO!!!" I could absolutely hear the bad attitude in the voice of the receptionist. She seems to hate her job and really needs to find another one if she reacts like that. That is a customer service job and she is the face of the location, whether audibly or visibly. I see that other reviewers on various sites have encountered that bad attitude, too, so I wasn't overreacting. On another review site, someone mentioned that the receptionist at the front desk is extremely rude and has apparently been there for 30 years. They actually went to the dental office physically and stated that they wouldn't be returning because of her attitude. While I'm sure that Dr Jernigan is a good dentist based on the glaringly positive reviews that I have seen for him on a variety of sites, his awful receptionist is driving people away from him. If a business manager reads this review, please look at various site reviews for this business and see how many people are encountering this nasty receptionist who is driving people away from the office.

    I believe this office has several things to work on…read more I've had a total of 3 visits, and 2/3 visits were very chaotic, unorganized, and simply put, not a great experience. The first visit, I scheduled for my kids' cleaning (due to our former dentist no longer taking our insurance). Upon arrival, I was there 15min early. I was given forms that I already completed and filled out online. The lady at the front desk was very rude and did not appropriately run my insurance, which caused a 45min delay. Once that was cleared up, I was not issued an apology, I was asked to reschedule, because it was an hour past the appointment time, and they were unable to see my children. Upon the second visit, I was quickly greeted, and the staff and doctor were great! However, I again, had to fill out the forms I previously filled out a third time. However, we were in and out with their cleanings, X-rays, and assessments. Ms. Cookie was our hygienist, and my son has asked for her several times since that appointment! She was very attentive, personable, professional, and explained the process each step of the way. The third visit, we arrived 15min early to our 9am appointment, with 2-3 families ahead of us in the waiting area. All of the families were taken back around 9:30 as a group, and then dispersed per the necessary treatment. We waited an additional 40min until my son was seen to receive his treatment. I encourage management to stop overbooking while short staffed. The staff are clearly overwhelmed and unhappy with conditions due to the workload and patience required to deal with upset people all day. The level of professionalism and side comments to patients and guests about their experience as employees is impertinent. Patients' time is not considered, and it truly makes me want to find another dental office because it is such a chaotic environment.

    I had a wonderful experience and Dr. Moledina was the absolute BEST and her staff was great. She…read moretook great care of me. Nice and clean
