    Today I had a wonderful experience with Amber, my dental hygienist. She was extremely thorough and…read more Dr. Hodge even complemented her when she checked my teeth. If you are looking for a new dentist or want to make a switch, I highly recommend this practice. I have had several procedures done here, including an implant. I am very confident that I am getting the best care possible for my teeth.

    In April of 2023 I went to Absolute Smiles w two tooth aches. I saw Dr Saito and she told me I had…read morean infected molar on the left and two cracked ones on the right and I needed two crowns on the cracked ones. I was going out of town until June and Dr Saito gave me medication. In June I saw her and she prepared me for the crowns. She gave 5 shots to numb the area and during the procedure she gave me four additional ones. When I got home I started having the worst pain that I have ever experienced. I called the office and there was a recording that the office was closed. After several calls I got two numbers to call for an emergency. I called Dr Saito for half an hour and she didn't answer. I was screaming in pain and crying. In desperation I called the police. They sent me an ambulance. While waiting Dr Saito called me and said that she was sending a prescription to Walgreens for steroid and the EMT would give me pain killers. When the ambulance came they said they were not allowed to give me medications. They took me to the ER. I waited for an hour screaming and crying before they gave me a pain killer. I went home and the next morning I went to see Dr Saito. Another dentist saw me first then Dr Saito. She told me I needed to have a root canal. I had paid $2,200 for the crowns that I did not receive. It took me 2 months to get an appointment with an endodontist. He took XRays and told me he wouldn't do the root canal on my cracked teeth because it was expensive and it wouldn't last. He told me to have the teeth extracted. I went to 3 dentists and they wouldn't do the extraction. One of them recommended Dr Cudney in Beavercreek. I had the 3 teeth extracted in September, over $3,000, two implants in January, $7000, two crowns at another dentist $4,000. I went through all this suffering physically, economically and emotionally because of Dr Saito's misdiagnosis and all the pain when she prepared my teeth for the crowns for her ineptitude at doing the procedure. I asked the office manager to refund me the $2,200 . She said she had to talk to Dr Saito and she would call me back. She never did. I called several times to talk to her and I was told she was talking to a Dr and she would call me back. She didn't. Every time I called they gave me an excuse For her not calling me back. To date I have not received a call or a refund.

    Bright Tooth Dental ruined my dentures which I waited 8 years to get I was given a mold and after…read morethat they were filed down on very quickly and matter of 5 minutes in between running back and forth and of patients two of those times out of the 6 months which I can only see her one time a month because I'm on Medicare or Medicaid this is absolutely horrendous I am stuck with teeth that don't fit my mouth they were never fixed then she told me it would cost me money out of my pocket to have any adjustments made when my teeth were never fixed to begin with contacting the Better Business Bureau next and then the courts if you can stay away from them stay away and that's my opinion I was left with no teeth after 8 years when she promised she would help me I sat there in tears before because she was going to help me and tears afterwards because I was left with nothing again my face is now sunk in because I have had no teeth for so long because insurance doesn't pay for it wow amazing how you hurt people like this

    2 stars for dentist. Assistant placed with cement my loose crown in the wrong way so that it was…read morepainful and touching top tooth. I had to initially remove crown myself! as she could not get it off.....she was in a hurry...so when she cemented it in wrong, and told me to bite cotton, I kept asking her if it was in right.....hard with cotton!!..she just ignored me....when cotton out I.immediately knew it was in wrong.....a crown that had fit perfectly before....Dr came in and tried to remove it....but too hard.....needed it cut off...but no time he said. I left with pain and discomfort from crown not cotton right and on sdvil, aspirin, more NO meds since....Dr said he would put New crown on but is very hard to get cemented crown off. Trauma. No caring or compassion or apology from assistant......called today to ask dr*s name!!! And Mandy, office mgr. Yelled at me and hung up.on.me! True professonsal???? I will report her and my experience there. However I.hare appt with regular dentist and would never go back there!!! When I walked in, it smelled of mariwuana??? Wait room...burned my eyes....two people waiting were shaking their legs!!!!??? Strange. Clientele not too good. Fortunately have insurance now so can go back to old dentist. Very sad, as crown fit perfectly...should never have gone there ...no blood pressure monitor or pre meds I use given eithrr....have heart and medical issues..recovering from breast cancer and Mandy was cruel and mean....My husband, retired dentist, would never have such a mean person in his office!!! I'm discomfort and sad.at age 83.
