They said that they would stay until I got there and see what they could do. Upon arrival, Dr Debbie and her assistant fixed me up. Having a dental emergency while on the road is not a fun experience. I am so thankful for the hospitality and excellent service that Debbie and the the team at Aurora Dental provided to me. What they did for me as an out of town patient was amazing...I can't imagine the phenomenal treatment the locals must get. If your are looking for a dentist, you should give them a try. They really helped me out.

I did not know at the time when I went for the consult that they didn't take insurance. My daughter is writhing in pain from impacted wisdom teeth and I had to find an oral surgeon that DOES take insurance. Westermeier will not even give a referral, however Christina in the office told me she would send the xrays to me and the new surgeon via email. Well, I still needed to get the referral piece so I had to make a separate appointment with a local dentist in the Falls who can see my daughter tomorrow. They asked if I had xrays to send to them to speed up the process. I called back to Westermeier to ask that they send them to the dentist so I can get the referral and now Lynn tells me that Christina is 'new' and didn't know the policy and that they would not send me the xrays unless I paid $199! I told her I had been talking to Christina and she was going to send them and Lynn said she 'made a mistake.' It's really not my fault that someone is giving out wrong information but Christina also knew the dire situation we were in to try and get her teeth done. She even sent me the Hipaa form so she could release them to me. Not only is this practice cruel when telling them that my daughter was laying in pain with the impacted teeth, but they held a referral and now the xrays hostage, causing us all this unnecessary calling, trying to get appointments and running around to help her. Big deal if they give xrays for free! They only take cash payments so sure, throwing in xrays seems like a great deal but who in their right mind would pay out of pocket if they have insurance? Give me $10k and I'll figure out a way to get you xrays too! These people are horrible. I cannot believe the lack of compassion or kindness as I was crying on the phone begging them to help my daughter. Shame on them!!!!

When we started this process, my son had two adult teeth that hadn't dropped down because they were completely horizontal. We didn't know if it was even a possibility to have those teeth come down and be in place, but Dr. Koch was able to do it (albeit with the help of an oral surgeon who was able to place a hook on one of the teeth so Dr. Koch could slowly draw it down). For the first time since he was a little boy, my son has a beautiful smile, thanks to Dr. Koch. He and the rest of the wonderful people in the practice have been great from day 1.

The office, particularly Dr. Tyska addressed the situation. Consultations are complimentary, and the fee was promptly refunded.

The professionalism and dedication to resolving the issue were impressive. My daughter will soon be getting here braces with Dr. Tyska.

So disappointed with this business. Buyer beware when it comes to "complimentary" consultation for…read moreorthodontics. The 2 stars is because we once had a great experience 5 years ago. But recently, I had such an unfortunate interchange with their office manager and staff. I called to book an appointment for my daughter to get a quote on another round of braces (she never wore her retainers and teeth shifted back). The front desk told me there would be a fee for return clients but not for new clients. That didn't make sense to me so I said no thank you. I already received a complimentary consultation elsewhere with a quote. And they did NOT charge me. The front desk told me she would have someone call me back. Sure. I got a call back and told the same thing. Ok. Then I proceeded to cancel my appointment. The office (wish I remembered her name), said she would ask the doctors and call me back (again). Days later I received a call and told there would be no fee. Great. My husband brought my daughter yesterday and sure enough, I am charged $85.00. Called and spoke to the office manager. She handled it very poorly, and kept explaining that they did a lot of "extra's" and that the $85 was actually a great deal. The thing is, I didn't ask for any extra's. I just wanted to know if I would be paying the same price for another round of braces and to see if I could get some kind of discount as a returning patient. This manager made a point to say that there was no record of my previous conservations and therefore, she would not do anything. I have worked for years in private practice - Manhattan - selling elective medical cosmetic procedures. I understand how this works. It is not about the money but about the practice keeping their word and honoring their commitment to the patient. I spoke to them 3x before our actual appointment and they still charged me. I am so disappointed with how they now run their business. Very sad indeed.

My daughter had so many broken brackets within 24 hours of getting her braces on, that within the month she needed to get her braces completely removed and put on again. Since having her braces replaced she has continued to break brackets on food that is approved for braces, such as pretzels and sandwiches. Every time a bracket breaks we have had to wait one week or more to get an appointment. I paid thousands of dollars for subpar braces and care.
