For 5 years i went to this place for all dental work (until now, since they stopped taking fidelis…read moremedicaid), as someone with severe medical phobia, it my critical 1st adult self regulated visited place for cleaning, root canals, extractions, numerous emergencies unplanned for which they've been patient for -- many unscheduled walk-ins on my part since I was barely contactable to medical spaces, and, they didn't turn me away. It's a collective of dentists, so quality and fit are a wheel of fortune , varying in experience, strengths and weaknesses. I'd felt extremely grateful that I was able to verbalize with one dentist who was a consistent one I'd follow up with for several significant procedures, because it was crucial and navigateable rapport I could go thru and not feel petrified about, and attempt a single portfolio and history with someone working on me. It opened a door. Coincidentally, steadily for the past two years, all of the work she's done (each one kind of heavy) has failed, pretty hard, (with unraveling heavy consequences requiring heavier work) and she's already no longer part of that office. Three crowns, and an extraction. One crown rotted off, tooth needed to be extracted. One popped off, got recemented. One crown's been failing for years, reinfecting six times while I've been failing to make it to an endodontist, because I'm daunted to see a specialist, and feel a sense of defeat, and finally cracked last week. I usually brush only once a day, or floss/mouthwash in lieu, additionally, rather than twice a day, so I figured I was responsible, for a long time, and I do think it's a grey area, but, every single job that was hers went off-kilter within two years. Yet, Back then, It was all work I needed , and it got done at the time. I was relieved I would and could get it done at all. I think she was doing her best,(again) at the time. It's unfortunate. I think this is accessible for poor people and is a option when there is none, which is drastic from nothing. She wasn't the only one I saw and did work on me. Someone else who did an extraction, and bone graft surgery has left me in a good stable state as I've witnessed in the past year and a half. Someone else recemented the crown she did that fell off in less than a year or two later, and it's still holding up a year later. If I had a choice, I'd continue going there if I didn't have to pay out of pocket, and stick with the person who did the surgery, only because of how little guard they put for me to just come in. I was always felt extremely lucky just to always get any communication and no turn aways from them, regardless from the rabbit-out-of-the hat treatment, altho, in hindsight, maybe it was just from who happens to me my most longtime dentist, and it could've easily been or gotten transferred to 3 or 4 other individuals. The assisting staff, front desk, everyone else besides the dentists, who took x-rays, were all overly servicing and memorable, it feels like they formed a relationship with me.
