I've been a patient at this office for several years, and while my dental health has always been…read morevery good, I've repeatedly felt pressured by the hygienists/doctors to purchase extra products or agree to additional procedures that didn't seem necessary. Last year I called to express my overall dissatisfaction as well as my desire to no longer move forward with the office as a patient, but the customer care agent convinced me to try a different hygienist (which I did, and that subsequent visit was fine). At my most recent routine cleaning visit, my cleaning was done by a visiting dentist who told me I had two cavities that would need to be drilled and filled. I then asked the regular dentist (Dr. Talwar) to confirm those findings, and while she did confirm the presence of the two alleged cavities, she also mentioned that they were "pretty small" and would be easy to repair. She even offered to do the procedure during that same visit since it wouldn't require anesthetic. The whole situation felt very misaligned from my actual oral health history, especially given that I have *never* had a cavity before, so I decided to get a second opinion before undergoing an irreversible treatment. A week later, I visited a different dental office with excellent referrals, and that dentist reviewed my X‑rays and examined my teeth. She quickly determined that there were zero cavities to be found in any of my teeth, and that I have a very healthy mouth overall. When I asked her to hone in on the two specific teeth that the Advanced Dental Care team had identified as having "cavities", the new doctor explained that those teeth have natural anatomical grooves which the other dentists may have interpreted as early-onset areas of decay...but she was very clear that there was no clinical basis for drilling into any of my teeth. I'm SO glad that I trusted my instincts in this situation, but it's unsettling to think I was advised to undergo unnecessary dental work (especially after their long pattern of upselling leading up to this point). I'm sharing this so that other patients know to advocate for themselves and seek second opinions if something doesn't feel right. I also hope that the Advanced Dental Care team reflects on this experience, because trust is a crucial foundation of any healthcare relationship. I do want to specifically thank the administrative team at this office for always being very courteous and customer-service focused...I've always greatly appreciated your helpful attention anytime I've needed help with scheduling or billing issues. Though I will no longer be a patient at this office, I wish this team all the best in the future.

After many years with a very trusted Dentist who moved away from our area we had to pick someone we…read morecan place our trust (or more directly our dental health) in. Having tried a different local practice we quickly realized they lacked the tools and care to be trusted so we looked again, and this time thankfully we landed on this wonderful facility. Dr. Gary Ashton, Denise, and Nick turned out to be outstanding professionally and personally. Having experienced several routine sessions as well as some necessary dental work we are again very confident we have a trustworthy team caring for us! In addition to that confidence the facility is beautiful, well maintained, and as unlikely as it would seem - it is actually a pleasure to come for a routine dental check! We only regret not discovering them a long time ago, but certainly better late than never.

Dr. Ashton is by far the best dentist I've seen in over 30 years…read more First of all, Dr. Ashton is highly intelligent and was able to sort through my case expertly and quickly, with insights that made sense to me--alas! I went to Dr. Ashton as a 4th opinion for a tooth that had been mistreated by a few previous dentists, leaving me suffering with severe tooth pain for a few years, with a high risk of a root canal. Dr. Ashton used his 3D x-rays to show me exactly why that tooth was so vulnerable. He handled the tooth very conservatively, causing no pain, and also addressed every aspect of what I could do to minimize future dental issues. It's clear that Dr. Ashton keeps current on dental advances, from his 3D x-ray machine (I've only seen at universities like UCLA TMD department), to topical solutions for dry mouth. Why didn't any of the other many dentists or speech and language pathologists I've seen notice my severe dry mouth, which has contributed to my long-term tooth sensitivity, possibly my receded gums and swallowing difficulties too? (Dr. Ashton didn't make those claims but they seem to apply to me based on the improvement I feel already and some studies I've read since his opened my eyes too this issue.) I bet the severe dryness is part of why, if only one person at a dinner table has food stuck to their teeth, it's me. There is so much else that I can say in praise of Dr. Ashton. He is extremely caring and thorough, leaving no stone unturned in addressing my complex case. I don't think Dr. Ashton needs another raving review, but I felt compelled to share my experience.

This review is more for Yelp than for Leesburg Family Dentistry. I've submitted two reviews for…read morethis office, all five stars, and I used to be able to see other good reviews, but, only one, very negative review shows now because it is recommended and the rest of ours are not. Let me restate some of my previous reviews - I have been a patient of the original dentist, Dr. Nelson for over 23 years and followed him when he moved to the current location. I have been a patient of Dr. Garcia for a little over a year and I am very pleased. He has helped me with an awful fear I developed of having dental work done. He's done two crowns and a root canal for me - so I know of what I speak. So, back to Yelp.... The negative review gives this practice a undeserved 1 star rating, because if a human read the review, rather than it being rated by an algorithm, it is very apparent that the reviewer was upset that the previous dentist left abruptly and didn't prepare the staff or the patients for the change in a timely manner. She rated the dentist and the office during their first difficult week, before the staff were even used to Dr. Garcia's name yet. So, I've been told that it is a computer algorithm that recommends ratings by several factors -it does not like one star or five star ratings, it does not recommend reviewers unless they have many reviews, especially reviews of varied stars, or if they are popular, etc. Yelp prides themselves on the fact that there is no human involved in the process to keep the system as unbiased as possible - but I say that there are times a rating must be read by a human, too. This is a glaring example of that. To think that someone needing a dentist in hurry, like I did when I broke my tooth, finding this rating and choosing another dentist based on one reviewers inconsiderate review. Dr. Garcia got me right in, he was able to take care of everything in his office, a one stop shop which is a far cry from what I experienced before. So, for the record, I give Dr. Garcia and his staff a 5 star rating, and Yelp a three star rating which will give Dr. Garcia a 4 - to please an algorithm so that by some chance this review will be recommended and help counter one woman's unfair review. What a mouthful...

WELL... Our Sept/Oct visits were great as usual, complete with goodie bags (even for grown ups) and…read moreall, but I needed to have a crack repaired. We scheduled the filling but had to reschedule. Today I walked in and Dr. Nelson is GONE. He sold the practice. Apparently the staff didn't even know it until 2 weeks ago. It's a new doc... and here's the scoop: His name is Dr. Garcia... his staff didn't even know his first name, so good luck doing a search to find out anything about his background. He makes bad jokes in an effort build rapport. I laughed to make him feel better, but did not think he was funny. He is apparently very experienced in his country (Columbia), in both general dentistry and root canals. He moved here (US) recently and took a General Dentistry court (I gather that is required which makes sense), and I think he said he was working with another practice doing implants. He offered no names, nothing I could research (then again I was sitting in the chair, not like I had the opportunity to research him well from there). First he examined my Xrays and my mouth. He disagreed with the findings and recommendation of Dr Nelson. (Hmm) Plus, while he was doing this, with instruments in my mouth, head turned to the computer screen to see the Xrays, I was rather put off that he didn't move the instruments from my mouth. Twice I had to pull his hand out of my mouth. The first time to explain what he couldn't figure out (I don't have 12 yr molars), and the second time so I could swallow. (Umm, hello? Patient here!) I thought "well, I am here" and decided to move forward with the fillings that both doctors agreed were necessary. I let him numb me. He had that needle in my mouth FOREVER to numb me! The assistant and he explained that is important - prevents blood pressure from spiking, helps it numb more thoroughly, etc. But no other dentist has ever done that and the result is the saliva in my mouth was pooling in the back of my mouth and I thought I was going to choke because I couldn't swallow. I nearly had a panic attack. But I was determined to get my dental work done. Let's try again... more numbing - other area. This time I did not feel the needle touch my gum and wondered if it did because I felt the liquid from the needle run down my gum and into the back of my mouth. Not only did it taste terrible but it nearly made me choke. I finally get to sit up, rinse my mouth. I am really nervous, and the waiting is making it worse. Doc is waiting for me to be completely numb. Well, it worked. The back of my throat was numb (as well as gums and tongue). You know how your tongue feels (big and uncontrollable) when it is numb? Well, imagine that being the back of your throat. I was sure if I laid back down I would choke for sure. This idea was making me very nervous and I decided to leave at this point. I will give him this... Dr Garcia did NOT get upset with me. I think he wanted me to leave. I wondered if he felt like he should be doing the work. At one point, I showed him the palms of my hands saying "See how blotchy my hands are? That's because of nerves." When I said that I looked at his hands... they were blotchy too. That is when I knew I should leave. All this being said, the staff is still AMAZING. I just don't think I will be going back. I canceled my daughter's appt that is scheduled for tomorrow.
