I went to Brighter Dental of Old Town for a temporary crown after my previous crown cracked and…read morefell out. Before the appointment, Seida repeatedly assured me the office would submit a pre-estimate to insurance and only charge me my patient responsibility amount. After multiple calls with my insurance company, it was discovered Brighter Dental had been faxing the paperwork to the wrong number. The issue was finally corrected during a conference call with insurance and the office. Despite the pre-estimate being approved before my appointment, I was told by Seida and Luca that I had to pay the full amount upfront or they would not proceed. Seida claimed no memory of the aforementioned conference call, and I had no choice but to pay or remain untreated and in pain. At my follow-up appointment, insurance had already paid the claim electronically, but the office delayed reimbursing the overpayment and gave conflicting timelines for a refund. They also refused to refund the original credit card and insisted on mailing a check instead. After repeated vague promises and no reimbursement, I was forced to dispute the charge with my credit card company. Due to their refusal to honor the insurance allowed amounts, I overpaid by several hundred dollars. I later received a threatening letter accusing me of fraud because of the charge dispute, even though the office had still not refunded the overpayment at the time of the dispute. This was a disturbing experience.

INCREDIBLE PERIODONTIST EXPERIENCE…read more Dr. Robert Busan and all of his staff are the definition of professionals. I had a crown lengthening procedure done a few weeks ago and it could not have been easier. The procedure itself was less then 30 minutes and pain-free the entire time. Dr. Busan is incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and professional - exactly what you want in a periodontist to calm your nerves. He followed up a few days after the procedure to check in which was very much appreciated. The billing was a breeze and depending on your insurance, surprisingly affordable. I highly recommend Dr. Busan and his team.

After months of searching for a top periodontist in the Chicagoland area I am so glad I found Dr…read more Cabrera. His impressive educational background and the top-rated reviews from his services were what finalized my decision. I have had a fairly long history of dental phobia and different experiences and I have gone through a handful of dentists/specialists in the past few years because I have never felt like I have been given an individualized treatment plan. So this was extremely important for me when seeking a perio. I was super nervous going into my consultation with Dr. Cabrera but he immediately made me feel at ease. He has the most delicate bedside manner and professionalism that I've ever experienced with a doctor in any background. He was very open to listening to me without ever making me feel uncomfortable and he was very direct and at the same time gentle with his prognosis and outlook. For the first time I felt like I was being listened to and felt my treatment plan was specialized and unique to my situation. His one on one care is extremely important and I am grateful I have finally found the service I've been seeking all these years. Ps- their office has beautiful views and is super modern

Together we made a plan to restore my gums,bone grafts, and implants. I now get my teeth cleaned every 3 months. As for the Dr and staff I am never disappointed in her work. She is very rarely running behind and her hygienists are thorough and professional. The receptionists always greet you with a smile and they never ignore you. Dr Gargioulo takes pride in her work and is always up to date with the newest equipment. When I visit I am never scared or worried. The Dr will be straight with me and offer options as well. Everyone she has referred for work she doesn't perform (root canal example) have been just as professional and understanding of my anxiety of seeing the dentist I can go on and on about how much I appreciate this office but I'm sure you know by now I won't go anywhere else'. would refer anyone complaining about their dentist or Periodontist.

Dr. B, first and foremost, is a top of the line surgeon, and takes a great deal of pride in her work. Not only was her work on my gums flawless, but the way she followed up to make sure I was healing properly, was impeccable. Her excellence extends way beyond her skill, as she is such a kind and warm person. It isn't super comfortable going into surgery (of any kind), but Dr. Brodala had the most sensitive way of making me feel secure and at ease. The first thing I look at when I meet someone is their smile. Choosing Dr. B was the best decision I could have made. She made my smile beautiful.

Across three procedures from 2021 to 2025, after reviewing the history of my account, I was quoted a lower price each time and then billed more after the procedures were done. They blamed the insurance and the app they use to estimate, but the fact is they don't do pre-authorization for their quotes. For my recent procedure in 2025, they failed to disclose a prior denial for the same code and same tooth from 2021, yet still gave me a quote that was wrong and later told me the insurance "unexpectedly declined" the same code. They also pre-charged me before insurance finished processing, without my consent, which broke their own policy and added confusion to the bill. This left me questioning whether they already anticipated there would be a remaining balance - otherwise, the pre-charge and refund back doesn't make any sense. When I reviewed the documents they sent me, I also found another patient's EOB in my file. Overall, this office shows a pattern of low quoting followed by higher bills, lacks transparency in billing, and fails to safeguard patient privacy. If this is their standard practice, I can only imagine how many patients may have ended up with the same experience I had.
