    After two disappointed rounds of Invasalign, I began doing research on veneers as a permanent…read moresolution to my teeth continually moving back to their original crooked state. My research found that Dr. Hammond and his staff were reputable in cosmetic dentistry so I decided to schedule a consult. My initial impression was that the office was modern and edgy (there's no front office setting) but still comfortable. I was brought back to a room where my consult professional Tracy gave me the rundown of what to expect with veneers. She was nice and personable but that hardly softened the blow of the sticker price of 11 veneers-Whoa!! Then Dr. Hammond came in to introduce himself and examine my teeth. He had such a good energy about him...kinda like when you were a kid and your big brother's best friend was always cool and nice to you--that's Dr. Hammond. He was genuine and friendly and communicated so clearly that I immediately knew he was competent and felt at ease. The process would go like this: I had to pay everything up front-ugh and it would take about 6-8 weeks from beginning to end with a series of several hour appointments-UGH! Not fun right? Surprisingly it wasn't bad at all. So let me quickly explain how this goes First meeting- 1hour: They took impressions and photographs of my teeth. Dr. Hammond will ask you a series of questions to get you to start thinking about your smile. Do you want your teeth to be staggered or more straight, what shade of white are you comfortable with-- all of which I had never thought about. It's at this point that I really began scouring the web for pictures of smiles and veneers and developed an idea of what I wanted my smile to look like. The hard part is developing the language to describe what you like/don't like. This is where Dr. Hammond's assistant Demri was really helpful. She has a good eye and intuitively knew what I was trying to communicate. The coolest part--Dr. Hammond was actually AS excited as I was about my new smile! 2nd meeting-all day: Nitty gritty time. I spent 4 hours in a chair with as they drilled my teeth down to apply temporaries. Throughout the entire time, Denri and Dr. Hammond were good about explaining what they were doing and I felt at ease with them in my personal space. Also, they work really well together and was impressed with their efficiency. After the temporaries were put on, Dr. Hammond spent some time shaping my teeth to my liking and then sent me off with a goody bag and list to take care of my new teeth. Few weeks went by. This was the worst part--not gonna lie. The temporaries felt like a retainer and well...about this time fatigue started to set in and I wanted the process over. 3rd meeting-30 min: Consult and shaping of temporaries. 4th meeting-all day. The real sh-bang! New porcelain veneers were put on and finally it was over! 5th meeting-Final consult and shaping of veneers. Amazing, they look and feel so real!! So how do I feel about my veneers? I love them, I mean it!! Dr. Hammond is a perfectionist and paid attention to every painstaking detail from color to shape. He worked hard to achieve the smile I wanted and honestly...it turned out better than I expected. I whole heartedly recommend Dr. Hammond and his staff to anyone thinking about veneers. The cost and time is well worth it, in my opinion. Lastly, a great thanks to Dr. Hammond, Demri, Brooklyn and Tracy! Chris, your brilliance is clearly seen in not only the work you do but the staff you've put together-a very genuine and authentic group of good humans.

    I can not say enough good things about this practice--every aspect is truly OUTSTANDING! From the…read moreserene and gorgeous spa-like surroundings to the staff who radiate warmth, compassion, kindness, intelligence, and knowledge, I was so impressed at every turn. Each member of the office team did their part to ensure my needs were met, and both Kristen (hygienist) and Dr. Hammond were generous with their time and expertise. Going to the dentist is typically anxiety-inducing for me, but this crew is beyond compare. Thank you, Hammond Aesthetic & General Dentistry for your exceptional care! (I am an out-of-state patient who visited during a recent vacation.)

    TLDR: Dr. Bennett was unprofessional, exploitative, scammy, discriminatory, and did a surgery on my…read moremouth that failed and had to be triaged by a specialist. As an undergraduate student, I had progressively receding gums on a couple teeth exposing some nerve and causing sensitivity. I didn't have much experience navigating health care, and my attempt to address the problem started with calling a random dentist office (Dr. Bennett's, unfortunately) to ask the receptionist what is the term for the right kind of specialist who I should go see. Rather than saying, "a periodontist, we recommend so-and-so", . The only pre-operation consultation I had was with the younger Dr. Bennett, even though I found out on surgery day that the operation would be by the older Dr. Bennett. To be clear, he booked me for surgery without having ever seen my mouth, and the only pre-surgery evaluation was by a junior practitioner who wasn't qualified or licensed for this surgery. Also on the morning of surgery day, after I had arranged time off work and a ride, they called to say that Dr. Bennett would only see me if I arrived two hours earlier than scheduled because Dr. Bennett wanted to leave early. I should have cancelled and found a different provider, but I didn't know any better and was worried about how much more my gumline had already receded during the wait time for my appointment. Dr. Bennett surgically grafted cadaver tissue, which I later learned from a competent periodontist had no potential to address the issue because it can never replace the correct type of gum tissue that should be tougher and less vascular. Worse, in the week after the surgery, the graft failed and my face got infected and swollen. I of course tried to follow up and called the office, asked for an appointment, asked for a call back-- anything.... one receptionist booked me and then called back to say actually they wouldn't see me. I finally contacted Dr. Bennett through calling the after hours emergency number on the office voicemail. He texted that it's past my bedtime and I should be sleeping. During this period Dr. Bennett also made the dismissive and seemingly sexist comment "I bet your daddy's paying for all this, huh." During this period, I was continuing not to brush the area and following his instructions to only use mouthwash. Probably this was futile, probably the graft was already lost, but who knows, as he did not reexamine it. After a month, I went to an urgent care who told me that I needed to fire Dr. Bennett and find a different dentist, which I did, and that dentist immediately and urgently referred me to a periodontist, who informed me apologetically that I would have to redo the whole surgery. I later was diagnosed by a different provider with 13 cavities, although I had never previously had any, and am suspicious this month-long period of being advised not to brush and no follow-up care may have contributed. Although he was far too busy to help me during the fallout of his failed operation on my mouth, now 14+ years later, the office of Dr. Bennett continues to send me spammy texts hawking infomercials and lagoon ticket lotteries, which has prompted me to finally submit this overdue review. Also, he never refunded me any of the fees I paid in cash for the failed surgery. YOU ARE BETTER OFF GETTING NO DENTAL CARE THAN GOING TO THIS PRACTICE

    I am so grateful for Dr Bennett and his expertise. He has been working with my daughter to help her…read moresleep (apnea) and small pallet size and it is absolutely working. She is sleeping better, no longer snores, her pallet is normal size now, even her facial structure looks healthier now. 100% highly recommend!!
