The Bad: My dental insurance covers 2 standard cleanings per…read moreyear, x-rays, and 50% of covered services. On my first visit with Dr. Sara Helmi they setup my treatment plan which involved first of course taking care of the most pressing but expensive issues, a Crown and a deep cleaning. They grinded down my tooth so it would fit the crown and put on a temp crown while I waited for the real one to be made. They told me my insurance only covers a regular cleaning, so I had to pay the extra for the deep cleaning. I had the deep cleaning part done, but they said it was too late to do the regular cleaning so to setup another appointment. I paid for the deep cleaning and crown, over $800 for my half of the crown and the additional for the deep cleaning which insurance didn't cover. Was told the rest of the cleaning is free, as that is regular cleaning covered by my insurance. The temp crown broke within a week, but no pain so I waited it out. The new crown came in, I went in to have my cleaning and then have that put on. I get my cleaning done, hygienist does a great job. Time for the crown, A new Dentist is there Dr. Jabri. He puts on the new crown. I leave. I was told no charge, which makes sense given insurance covers 2 cleanings a year and this is my first, and I already paid for the crown. New crown wasn't on perfect, had to go back once to have it shaved down, but this isn't a big deal and not his fault at all. However the issue comes in when I start getting billed $87 for the cleaning. I have insurance, it covers 2 cleanings. I call Tru Family and I'm told it must be an insurance thing, they will reprocess. They never follow up. I get another bill, I call again, and they say insurance isn't covering it. (they had already covered half of my crown, so they are accepted I explain). I call my insurance, my insurance says they are accepted for Dr Helmi, but Dr Jabri never did what is necessary to get credentialed with them, so my cleaning isn't covered by them and that the dental office should have informed me prior to providing services. Since they switched Dr's between my temp crown and deep cleaning (without regular cleaning), and my regular cleaning and actual crown, they went from accepting my insurance, to not accepting my insurance in the middle of services being provided, and did not tell me this at any point. Now they expect me to pay for a service they had told me was covered by my insurance on my initial treatment plan and continually are billing me for it, all because they didn't have the time to complete the deep cleaning (which I paid for) on my first visit. The Good: I don't want to complain about the service, the deep cleaning was great, the cleaning itself was great, the Dr's were both kind, and hygienists all seemed nice and qualified, the crown seems to be holding up well. However the business aspect is being handled terribly, I have a right to know before service whether or not I'll have out of pocket expenses and what they'll be. I'm fairly certain this is now Illinois law for that matter. So overall I will not go back, no one wants random bills out of the blue for services that should have been covered when they agreed to have them done.

I even recommended this office to family members, and now I feel deeply guilty. Due to the treatment plan provided by Dr. Bowden, one of my family members now has to have six teeth removed. ​My personal experience with Ranita and their clear aligners was terrible. The aligners are subpar, off-brand quality with virtually no information available about them online. They don't clarify that you aren't getting Invisalign, leaving you to assume you're receiving a name-brand product. The aligners constantly cracked, and when I called the office, Ranita simply told me to keep wearing the broken set until my next scheduled swap. ​When my final set broke, I went in for a new scan, only to be met with months of complete silence. I went back for a second scan, and again, months passed without a single follow-up. ​Frustrated by the total lack of communication and care, I finally moved on and scheduled an appointment with Orthodontic Experts Chicago. They immediately provided the quality care and results I needed. Save your time and money--do not go to Woodlawn Dental Gallery for aligners.

A week before my appointment they made a follow up call which I really respect and it makes me feel safe, and that this place is not sketchy at all. I have a really bad fear of needles and I told them when they came in the room and the doctors and nurses were super nice and did everything they could to make sure I was comfortable. If you are looking for a place to get any extractions or wisdom teeth pulled, I 1000000/10 recommend this place because they are just so nice and respectful. And my insurance covered the surgery.

Doctor Duffner is awesome. I've been coming here, with my…read morewife for about 3 years and I must say he is the best dentist I have ever had. I go here for cleanings every 6 months because of him and his friendly, courteous and gentle staff. I say gentle because when it comes to your teeth and gums, it can be a painful experience. But not here, Doctor Duffner, always tells you your prognosis and speaks to you in a friendly manner and is not condescending at all, like other dentists, and is always concerned that you do the right thing to keep your teeth healthy and clean. His staff is also very friendly and gentle when it comes to the cleanings. I've had a couple of cavities removed and some teeth capped here and continue to come here for cleanings and checkups. If you need a dentist, you need to go here. If you need to get wisdom teeth removed, you will need to see a dentist before to get a consult...Doctor Duffner is the best...his partner in the business does the oral surgeries....James J. Kreuz.
