    Crown fell off (procedure was July 2023), after just 1 year & 2 months!!!

    Not all dentists are A students. Clearly, there are C dentists, and since C is passing, that unfortunately affects the quality of their work. A crown they placed on my right back tooth in 2023 has fallen off three times--the most recent being yesterday, Saturday, just one day after they reattached it! To make matters worse, during the last procedure, the dentist didn't place it correctly the first time. He had to shave it down, yet even after that, it still wasn't sitting right. And now, here we are again--the crown has come off. At this point, it's beyond frustrating. A crown should stay put for years, not days. This experience makes me seriously question their skill and attention to detail. If you're looking for reliable, long-lasting dental work, I'd strongly recommend looking elsewhere.

From the moment you walk into Smile the Spa, you are greeted by warm friendly folks and a serene atmosphere. They always remember my name and welcome me like I am an old friend. For my first visit, I had a dental cleaning, and I knew immediately that this was a great place. It was such a thorough cleaning and the technology Dr. Terra uses is first rate. I was terrified of the dentist, and I had A LOT of work to do. Many crowns, fillings, fixing some really crazy teeth, and oral surgery. All this before I can do the "fun stuff" (Invisalign and whitening). Whereas other dentists have made my road so long I have eventually given up, Dr. Terra gently and efficiently led me through a healing process. Within months, I now have new teeth! Yes!! And I was scared, but Dr. Terra referred me to an amazing surgeon; I was able to conquer my fear because I knew that if Dr. Terra trusted them, I could too. Thanks to all this work, I will soon start the fun stuff! And yes, my new teeth (Crowns) are GORGEOUS. Dr. Terra is an artist. He makes the crowns himself and they are incredible (and done so so quickly - no more waiting around with a temp crown for months!). I cannot tell you the difference Smile the Spa has made in my smile, my confidence, and my overall health. I am also on a fitness and health journey and Dr. Terra is always interested, remembers my goals and interests, and asks how I am doing. He supports a healthy lifestyle and is super wonderful to be around. Overall, I am so grateful to Dr. Terra and the team at Smile the Spa. Truly a life changing experience.

I followed the prompt it gave me when I called, and it went exactly how it said it would. They got me in the same week as a new patient, handled my cleaning, and fixed my permanent retainer all in one visit. I'm very particular about quality of service and my teeth in general, and it showed right away that the entire staff took the time to review my information and make the experience feel personal, not rushed or pressed for upsells. It was an incredibly warm experience. Customer service was excellent. The team was efficient, took care of everything I needed, and made the whole process smooth from start to finish. Extra star for having chapstick on hand. My lips usually dry out fast during appointments, so that small detail was the icing on the cake. I walked out with clean teeth, my retainer fixed, and hydrated lips. Highly recommend this office if you want an independent dentist that really cares about their patients.

    I sadly have to update my experience after trying multiple times to get a clear answer about…read moreout-of-pocket costs for self pay cleaning and exam. During my last appointment, I told the front desk associate (who seemed new) that I no longer wanted to continue paying for the Smile Generation dental plan they sell to patients, and I asked if she could please tell me the self-pay cost for a routine cleaning and exam. She didn't know. (hmmm...) She asked if she could call me back with the information, which never happened. This was months ago, and with my next cleaning coming up next week, I called again today to ask the same question. I spoke with Darlene, who first needed to look up my file before answering -- which already felt a little odd considering I was just asking for standard pricing information. I again explained that I no longer wanted to use the Smile Generation plan, and she told me the self-pay cost for a cleaning and exam would be $430. FOURHUNDREDANDTHIRTYAMERICANDOLLARS. ROUTINE CLEANING AND EXAM. (sorry I'll stop shouting). Even at the bougiest dental office I've ever gone to, self-pay pricing for a routine cleaning and exam was closer to $250-$300. I didn't want to immediately cancel, so I said, "Okay, I'll just come in for the cleaning w/o exam this time," which would have been $140 for cleaning only. She said that was fine, but that going forward it would HAVE to be a full cleaning and exam. That really left a bad taste in my mouth. It started to feel less like patient care and more like I wasn't wanted there unless I could comfortably pay an exorbitant amount out of pocket every six months. I sat with this all day because I genuinely liked Dr. Matsuno and the techs here. But ultimately, what felt like a lack of transparency and the uncomfortable feeling I walked away with after hanging up today are causing me to seek care elsewhere. I understand this is a business, and businesses need to make money. I truly do. But I don't want to go somewhere that makes me feel uncomfortable for not being able to spend that kind of money on routine dental visits a couple times a year. Respectfully, I think there needs to be a realistic middle ground on their pricing and expectation of what non-insured patients are willing to spend. And for me, that's NOT $430 every few months.
