In my opinion and based on my experience, I believe the "Wu Family General Dentistry" practice in Medford, OR placed my dental, physical, and emotional health at significant risk because Dr. Kevin Wu drilled four teeth too deep, and then put in crowns that were not supported by what was left of the teeth.
I went in on 10/28/2014 for a "deep" dental cleaning and x-rays. I was told by Dr. Julie Wu that it was necessary to get 4 crowns on my four maxillary incisors (your four front teeth on top) because "they could no longer be filled".
Between 12/08/2014 and 01/07/2015 the four teeth were prepped and permanent crowns were seated. Ten days later on 01/17/2015 one of the lateral incisor crowns (tooth # 7) broke off. On 01/20/15 I went back to Dr. Kevin Wu. Not only did the crown break off but also the healthy tooth inside the crown. I was told by Dr. Kevin Wu that I had no option and he then "had to extract what remained of the tooth" and he made a temporary bridge.
On 01/29/2015 a second lateral maxillary incisor crown and tooth broke (tooth # 10). I will not go back to Dr. Kevin Wu for fear he will only give me the option of extracting the second tooth. I still wake from nightmares after the extraction of tooth # 7.
Two out of 4 crowns have broken off in a matter of 22 days. I am afraid to eat anything for fear the other two crowns will break off.
After paying Wu Family Dentistry over $4,200.00 (between my insurance and myself), I am left missing two teeth, a hole in my mouth where the tooth was extracted, and the fear of losing the other two. read more
