I used to go to this place for years. They always offered me the mouth guard which I never…read morepurchased because of the price. Also I have sleep apnea which makes it hard to wear a night guard since I have a mask that covers both mouth and nose. They mentioned there was a mouth guard that would help with sleep apnea/snoring as well but they said that the insurance usually does not cover it. Last time I visited, I had a new insurance company that covered medical and dental insurance. I asked if they could ask for an estimate to see if they would cover the sleep apnea mouth guard. (Out of all the times I visited they always showed me the same mouth guard device that had two pieces and was connected my a piece of plastic/metal that would push your jaw forward to help with snoring) After they check with the insurance they said that the insurance would partially cover the mouth guard. When I was on the visit they scanned both my top and bottom teeth. I thought that they understood that due to the sleep apnea I would not be able to use a regular mouth guard since it makes it hard to breathe with a full mask on. When I got there to pick up my mouth guard they showed me a piece that THEY HAD NEVER SHOWN ME BEFORE. The piece was only for the top part of the teeth. I asked why I was getting this and they said that they told me that this is what I agreed on. Which is not true. I was never shown this piece. If they would have shown me this. I would have not gotten it. They knew that a regular mouth guard will be hard to use with a CPAP machine. They said to try and see if it would work. I did. And just like I knew it would happen it doesn't work. I did see that the claim the submitted to the insurance was for 600 and my co pay was 146. Which I paid. For a one piece mouth guard that I cant use. And I cannot return. It's been very frustrating and disappointing to be treated like this. They knew my condition and I was not shown the second "mouth guard" only the sleep apnea one. They tried to call me and offered to put the $146 towards the sleep apnea mouth guard but the price for it would be $700. I would not recommend this place. Do not get the mouth guard even though the offer it often. Now I have a $146 device that I cannot return and I cannot use.

my husband went for his regular cleaning service and check-up with Dr. Mary Askary. During a…read moreroutine cleaning visit, Dr. Askary found an old and broken filling on his # 30 teeth. To resolve his broken filling, Dr. Askary's put a crown on that tooth. My husband didn't have pain or concern about that tooth prior to the crown installation, and he could eat just fine without any issues. However, everything changed after the crown was put-- and it's very bad. We trusted Dr Askary that that treatment was the best for him. Wrong decision. Follow up visit, Dr. Askary, he said that my husband has an infection. Antibiotic were prescribed, finished and no change in pain. We went to root canal specialist, and He said that my husband didn't have infection on his tooth which contradicts Dr Askary diagnostic. Root canal was done. Sensitivity to cold and hot gone but the pain still on. The pain never went away. My husband has been suffering since day 1 (9/15/2025) until now for a pain, to the point that is affecting his regular lifestyle. After consulting with Dr. Askary further, Dr. Askary seemed like he did not want to examine the issue further, stating that he did a good job and nothing else could be done. I contacted Dr. Askary on 1/5/2025 to hopefully resolve the issue further, but he was very rude on the phone, exclaimed that he did not make any mistakes, and did not seem interested in addressing and finding a solution to my husband's insufferable pain. The conversation became so unpleasant that He hung up the phone on me. This is neither professional nor remotely considerate. We contact a specialist, this doctor found that my husband's #30 tooth was broken to the root, for which the solution was a tooth extraction. Dr. Askary's lack of cooperation, incompetence, and negligence costed me and my family more than $1000 in extra out-of-pocket expenses. PLEASE BE AWAY FROM THAT OFFICE.

My daughter will need braces but does need some teeth pulled 1st. The 1st time wd went they told me she needed some appliances placed in jer mouth that were not covered under insurance and i would have to pay 1500 out of pocket before they would do anything. I rescheduled and was able to get my daughter to stop thumb sucking. So we go back 3 months later and they say she needs the same device and it will still be 1500. So i call Healthy Smiles to find out what coverage she does have any why this device is not covered. They inform me that this office never filed a claim. How can they tell me that insurance will not cover it if they never attempted to find out 1st?!?!?!?!?! Then after reviewing the form they gave me explaining her patient plan i discover it is dated for May of 2013!! Its not even my daughter's patient plan!! I am working to file against them for whatever fraudulent activity this office is trying to pull and hope everyone will see this before this dr tries to scam you too!!

I have a mild case of PTSD from going to the dentist as a child. When I was a toddler, my top 4…read morebaby teeth rotted out from my mom putting honey on my pacifier (it was the 70s). My small town, rural dentist replaced the rotten baby teeth with fake silver ones until my adult teeth grew in, and the experience was traumatizing. During that procedure, I ended up biting the dentist (it hurt!) and he bit me back!! I always seemed to have cavities as a kid, and the sound of the drill can still send me into a panic. My parents wouldn't tell me until the day of my appointment that I was going because I would agonize for days leading up to the visit. As an adult, I still have trouble getting fully numb for fillings, and just the thought of going to the dentist triggers the fight/flight response. Dr. Edland is the first dentist who truly listened and worked with me on my trouble with Novocain. He is patient, and waits until the anesthetic fully takes hold. There has been one time where I could still feel pain after he started drilling - he stopped, injected more anesthetic, and waited for it to take effect. I can't tell you how grateful I am for his kind and gentle demeanor. He also fully explains everything he is doing, keeping you updated on how far he's gotten and how much work is left. He is pragmatic and doesn't push you into procedures that can wait. And his staff is just as wonderful! Receptionist Liz is an absolute delight. She always makes you feel like you're her favorite patient. Edie assists Dr. Edland during procedures and is attuned to your needs throughout. She always provides comfort and reassurance during stressful visits. Valerie is one of the dental hygienists who is so sweet and gentle. Everyone at this practice is amazing.
