I had to have my wisdom teeth removed recently, and I was completely terrified to do it. I had put…read moreit off because I didn't have dental, so when I got it in the start of January I had no excuses left to make. I Yelped wisdom teeth and this was the first place that popped up, so I gave them a call and got my appointment set up with them. I met with Dr. Klemmedson, who was very no-nonsense, but definitely tried to make me feel more at ease. He took a look in my mouth and said I had something called Perry Coronitis, which is when the gums don't stick to the wisdom teeth so all kinds of nasty stuff can get in there. It may have explained why I had tonsilitis twice this year and never had it before a day in my life. He showed me my x-ray, which was fascinating, and tried to show me where the injections would go based on where my cavities had been. I told him I never had anesthesia for cavities because I can't stand needles. He offered to put me under instead. On the day of the surgery, I was really scared. I had never had surgery of any kind, and the only thing that I could calm myself down with was to keep saying, "He does this all the time. I trust doctors. Many people in my family are medical professionals. This will be fine." The staff there did everything they could to make me feel at ease also. They tried to give me the medicine to put me under, but I was so scared that my blood pressure kept spiking. Finally I went under and, like no time had passed, I was awake and telling the tech that was putting vasaline on my face that she was "delightful". (I got to wake up to a woman with pink scrubs and a huge smile.) I was discharged with my boyfriend, who they followed up with to make sure I was ok. I went in for follow up, and Dr. Klemmedson told me that apparently I talked the entire time. I guess I could not shut up, and kept asking "are we done? Are we done?" He put gauze with clove oil into the cavities to help with my dry sockets and took them out the next day. I absolutely recommend him to anyone in need of oral surgery. Had he joked around with me and then told me I would be fine, it would make me way more nervous. He was kind, informative, helpful, professional. The staff was friendly and put my nerves to rest. I will absolutely be back for anything else I may ever need.

This review regards incompetent and uncaring treatment by Dr. Prokes at Casas Adobe Oral &…read moreMaxillofacial Surgery on Swan Rd. I had appointment for tooth extraction without sedation on 6/12/26. I had undergone 2 root canal (RC) treatments on the tooth with pain remaining after 2 months. My endodontist said I would need to have a 3rd RC (no guarantee of success) or get the tooth extracted (guaranteed success). I chose to have the tooth extracted and thus the appointment at Casas. I had a referral and also verbally explained to Dr. Prokes what I described above. She seemed confused and left the room to call my endodontist. She came back and said I didn't need any more RC treatments nor a tooth extraction. I was confused but of course happy to hear that, and subsequently left. Turns out Dr. Prokes did not speak to my endodontist, but to customer service who was uninformed. A week or so later, after my last antibiotic cycle had ended, the pain came raging back, and I found out that the tooth next to the originally infected tooth was now also infected. So I have to make the decision to extract them or more RC treatments on both teeth. Part of that decision is the cost of each option. I decided if I extracted the teeth, I wanted to have sedation. Casas said I had to come in again to discuss sedation with Dr. Prokes to get the cost, which I can't get. (My insurance requires provider to submit pre-estimate request to get quote, which takes minutes at most). I made an appointment for July 8, and was told I needed to get referral for the 2nd tooth before then. My dentist told me by email that he had submitted it to Casas on July 1, but Casas on July 3 still hadn't received it. Both my dentist and endodontist are out of the office this week due to the holiday, so I can't get another referral until Monday (my appointment is Wed.). To help with Dr. Prokes' confusion, I wrote a detailed history on all treatment, etc. associated with the 1st tooth and the diagnosis of the 2nd tooth. I explained I wasn't sure yet whether to extract 1, 2 or none of the teeth, but needed the cost info to decide. I got a call from Casas the next day on 7/3 saying Dr. Prokes said to cancel my appointment because I didn't have both referrals. Again I could get the 2nd one on Monday. Also, she wanted to talk to my dentist to make sure I needed the tooth/teeth extractions. This suggests I'm some kind of kook who wants teeth pulled out that don't need to be extracted. Note I have all of my teeth and am 61 years old. From Casas' website, it looks like there are at least 5 other oral surgeons at Casas. None of the others have had timely appointments open in 1 or 2 weeks....only Dr. Prokes has availability. Now I know why.....apparently nobody recommends her to others. I suggest you don't see Dr. Prokes, who doesn't seem to comprehend the English language nor care about her patients. I thinks it's likely that if Prokes had extracted the initial tooth when I went there for that purpose, the infection might not have spread into the 2nd tooth, costing me significant extra costs and substantial pain. How cruel that because of Prokes, I have to start over with RFQ with another facility, as I certainly won't ever go back to Casas. How hard would it have been to just give me a quotation for sedation, especially since I had already been to the facility? Certainly no harm would come of this. No treatment or tooth extraction was going to be performed on 7/8.....just discussion of sedation (and I've had sedation several times in my life) and finally telling me how much it would cost. I understand needing the referral, which I could have had re-sent on 7/6, and certainly well before any tooth extractions would be performed. It's just hard to fathom these stupid rules, and the incompetence and lack of empathy of Dr. Prokes.

After searching through providers for my insurance, I came across Southern Arizona Endodontics, and I'm so glad I did. Making the appointment was easy, even without having a referral. I was able to schedule an appointment for the next day, lucky me. The front desk staff were sweet and moved me through after filling out paperwork. After being taken to the back and having X-rays done, I met my dentist, Dr. Funk. Dr. Funk let me know I hadn't chipped my tooth, instead, I cracked it and would need to either pull it or get a root canal. I opted for the root canal and he and his tech searched for a spot in his schedule. Dr. Funk offered to squeeze me in the same day for the root canal after not finding space in his upcoming schedule. Of course, I took it and Dr. Funk took care of me. Everything was explained to me, I had no idea what I was getting myself into. He even showed me before and after my X-rays of what was done. I loved my experience. I'm not one to shy away from the dentist and I would recommend Southern Arizona Endodontics to anyone unlucky enough to need a root canal done.

I have had a lot of dental work done over the years (several cavities filled and an implant from a tooth I knocked out in my youth) and so I know how important it is to find a dentist that is not only likeable but competent. Dr. Hicks came highly recommended from everything I read on the internet. Luckily I was not in any hurry for a new patient appointment (just due for a cleaning and did not have any issues to report) because it took several months to get me in. If I had a more urgent issue they may have taken additional steps to get me in sooner--not sure, as that wasn't the case for me. My appointment started promptly. The hygienist assigned to me was kind and did a great job taking x-rays and cleaning my teeth. Dr. Hicks was friendly and professional. I have had some dentists that try to sell me nonsense cosmetic crap for my teeth, and was glad that Dr. Hicks and her team did no such thing.
