I had a really great experience at this dental office. From the moment I walked in, the staff was…read moreincredibly welcoming--the front desk even remembered my name, which immediately stood out. Everyone greets you with a smile and takes the time to make you feel comfortable. The hygienist was extremely gentle and thorough. She walked me through everything she was doing, gave helpful feedback on my at-home care, and even demonstrated proper flossing technique using a model, which I really appreciated. It didn't feel rushed or impersonal at all. What I liked most is that there was absolutely no pressure. They clearly explained everything, showed me pictures, and were very respectful of my pace. When discussing future work, they said we could go over it at my next visit so I wouldn't feel overwhelmed--that meant a lot. Overall, the team is professional, kind, and genuinely caring. I'd gladly drive the extra distance to keep coming here. Highly recommend.

Beware-Beware-Beware. I went to this office because it is in the Delta Network and specifically…read moreconfirmed upon arrival. I set a consultation appointment for a tooth removal and implant. I was in some pain (5 out of 10) They said they could perform the work right away and sent in an attractive young lady who told me my portion would be $1415.10. I was thinking "I thought I had excellent insurance thru Delta, but maybe I was wrong" She kept pushing "pay the amount and you will be all set, your pain will be gone and the work will be complete" I felt like I was at a used car dealership, I'm in sales and recognized the sales techniques. Against my better judgement I had the work performed. The assistant Michael was very polite and caring, the dentist was nice, it was a tough extraction but she did it successfully. The next day, after the fog wore off I checked with Delta Dental Insurance and discovered MY INSURANCE WOULD COVER 80-90% OF THIS SERVICE.!!!! Also, the Delta Rep told me the maximum reasonable and customary allowance was around $770.00. THEY CHARGED ME DOUBLE.!!!! (They did give me a small discount $141.00) which I appreciated. How can a business do this to a customer???? How can they sleep at night treating people this way????? My primary dentist I go to in Riverview is SO awesome and ethical. She charges the required amount and does not over-sell you on anything. Maybe I got spoiled. Please beware. I not necessarily recommending you avoid this office, just be knowledgeable on your rights and what your insurance covers. Don't become a victim. My name is Robert Melio, I have lived in Brandon/Tampa area 31 years, and stand 100% behind the validity of my statements and I appreciate websites like Yelp to warn others. Thank You..

I am writing this review after more than 20 years as a patient of Dr. Arnold and his team…read more I first started seeing Dr. Arnold and Teri when he took over the practice of a dentist who had passed away in the early 2000s. My first impression was that Teri had everything completely under control, and Dr. Arnold seemed like a somewhat nerdy surfer guy who really knew his stuff. There is nothing better than a practitioner who "nerds out" on what he does - you know he's passionate about it. I immediately liked them both. Over the years, I grew alongside the practice. Despite expanding, adding another office, and relocating to Brandon, Dr. Arnold, Teri, and the rest of the staff remained exactly what made them special from the beginning: grounded, professional, caring, and genuinely invested in my dental health. They always worked with me as partners to achieve the best possible outcomes. In many ways, they felt more like friends than healthcare providers. One thing that always impressed me about Dr. Arnold is his honesty. He doesn't sugarcoat anything--you get a straightforward assessment of your condition and the available options. At the same time, he provides thoughtful, well-developed treatment plans and clearly explains each option so you can make informed decisions. His directness is balanced by compassion, empathy, and a complete absence of judgment. Teri and the office staff are absolute experts when it comes to insurance and billing. If there's a way to maximize your benefits and minimize your costs, they'll find it. When I underwent Invisalign treatment to correct an overbite that was largely cosmetic rather than functional, Dr. Arnold and his staff helped me take advantage of discounts and other opportunities that saved me literally thousands of dollars. Another quality I greatly appreciated is Dr. Arnold's attention to detail. He can be a perfectionist--and in cosmetic dentistry, that's a tremendous asset. During my Invisalign treatment, I eventually had to tell him I was satisfied because he wanted to continue correcting tiny imperfections that I barely noticed. He was completely transparent about this, and while I appreciated his commitment to achieving the best possible result, I wasn't eager to spend another few years in Invisalign trays. We discussed it openly, aligned on our goals, and developed a plan we were both happy with. That experience perfectly reflects one of Dr. Arnold's greatest strengths: communication. Although I have since moved out of state and now see another provider, I will always remember the exceptional care, service, and compassion I received from Dr. Arnold and his team. Those of you who still live in the area are fortunate to have them. Thank you, Dr. Arnold, Teri, and the entire staff for more than 20 years of outstanding dental care. It was truly appreciated.

They told everyone that could get filling and wisdom teeth pulled the same day (attempting to have people pay out of pocket, pushing their payment plans). They all were nice i cant say they werent. However i waited 3 hours to have my service completed. They rushed my cleaning, tried to have my filling done the same day after being in the office that long. Joked about me being there for that duration of time. I explained i had somewhere to be but i still left late. I will not be returning to this location. I was the last person to leave the office.

The dentist came in and when the assistant explained what my sister asked for, the dentist said "we're using A1, and that's that! It's the best, basic color, and the brightest choice we have".. apparently she thinks because she's a dentist her patients don't have a say, and she can dismiss their requests all while being a Jerk about it. Dental care is a service and being a service means we can select other locations if your service is subpar. You can thank your rude dentist for the upcoming revenue loss you will incur.. We're new to the area so 1) I have 4 other mouths full of teeth in my house who won't be coming here and 2) I'm putting them on blast online so everyone else can be warned on how they will be treated before selecting a new dentist once day companies will realize you can't treat your customers rudely and expect to still thrive!

The office is clean and welcoming. Appointment reminders and accurate billing information are important components of this office. So, going to the dentist is actually fun! We can't recommend A&S Dental enough.

The owner/husband of the dentist told me to bring a letter saying it's okay to get the dental care being that I was in my first trimester of pregnancy. I brought the letter from my PCP since I didn't have a prenatal care visit yet since it was too early. When I get there the dentist assistants told me that letter isn't good enough and I could sign a waiver to get the x-rays done but basically scared me out of it so I said I would wait. When I finally get my letter from my prenatal care doctor 2 months later I call and I make an appointment SPECIFICALLY to get my fillings done. I asked the girl SPECIFICALLY on the phone (front desk girl with birth mark on her forehead) can I get my fillings done after I have my x-rays? She said yes. I get to my appointment 10 minutes early and fill out some paperwork, I wait AN HOUR to be pulled to the back and they take all the x-rays (this took 5 minutes). The dentist came in to tell me about the x-rays and I said I just want to get my fillings done, she said we can't do that today. I said what do you mean I specifically made this appointment to do that. The dentist said well it took so long to do your x-rays and we're booked. I got out of the chair and said I'm leaving. Now upset and frustrated and pregnant with raging hormones I'm really upset crying on the side of their building. My mom pulls up a couple minutes later, I tell her what happened and she goes in there and says how do you book an appointment for my daughter to get her fillings done and not do her fillings? They front desk girl said okay to my mother like they were going to do them so I go back in and she pulls me to the back to tell me again THEY OVERBOOKED, not my fault, theirs for not knowing how to schedule...so I get even more upset and raise my voice, the "owner/husband" to the dentist comes back there yelling and telling me what I can and can't do and I did start cursing at that point, he said, "I'm the owner and you can get out". I said that's fine and I won't be coming back. I leave and ask my mother to get my dental records and she goes back in to get them, they tell me to come back in, she said how dumb is that you kicked her out and now you're asking her to come back in? When I go back in the office the "owner/husband" is pointing his finger very threatening like in my mother's face and telling her she needs to get an education, and telling her she can't do anything with a Bachelor's degree and that he's from Europe as if he is better than us. He was demeaning, disrespectful, and very customer unfriendly. The whole time he is going off his wife "the dentist" is just standing there saying nothing just looking. I am explaining to the dentist (still saying nothing as if she is scared of her husband) that I have been there over an hour, I'm pregnant and they sit there and tell me I can get my x-rays done and then my fillings just to tell me they can't do it because they overbooked, the only smart one was the other dental assistant who said, "that is very understandable that you're upset" and the front desk girl had the nerve to say she never told me I could get my fillings done as if my pregnant self would sit there for over an hour for just some x-rays. Not to mention they did not give me my FULL dental records. They only gave me only 2 pages and that included one x-ray and a bill for possible services in the future which I've had at least 2 x-rays at their office so they're withholding my records illegally!! I will NEVER go here again and my family members that were going there are not going back either, they just lost 4 customers thanks to their unprofessional, degrading comments and behaviors.
