Everything about the office is super exciting and inviting -- especially for a two year old! I don't think he felt an ounce of fear. The dental hygienist did a great job showing him the tools and being so patient with him. It warmed my heart to see how much they truly care about the kids. They have tvs on the screen, which I think makes for the perfect distraction. He flossed, got a cleaning, and then our dentist, Dr Shah, came in and looked over his teeth and gave us some tips/tricks for brushing with a two year old. She is great and we feel like our little guy is in the best hands!

I had been working down a list of dentists that might be taking Medicaid/AllKids for a pediatric…read morefollowup for my daughter. Many of those listed, I was only able to leave a message or told me they did not accept Medicaid. When I called Apple Dental Care on Wednesday, the scheduler did have to put me on hold (no problem, that's what speakerphone is for). When she got back, she confirmed that they were seeing new patients including those with Medicaid. We were able to schedule an appointment for the following Tuesday. In the end, one of the previous dentists that I had left a message with (twice) called me back to schedule for the next day and is closer to home for us and was the original referral from our regular dentist. We saw them instead and cancelled our appointment with Apple Dental Care. I still wanted to give Apple a nod because they were able to answer the phone and serve Medicaid patients (one of the few on the north side reaching out from Rogers Park). One note of caution that their COVID measures wouldn't allow me as parent to be there I believe during procedures - so while scheduling get clarity on this - I'd imagine you could communicate with the dentist/hygienist before as well as after the checkup/evaluation before scheduling/authorizing additional procedures.

Terrible place. Over charges you and does not deliver what they promised. I took my son here in…read morethe summer in hopes of getting a cavity filled. They charged me about 450$ for nitrous gas and the treatment. He would not sit still. He has terrible anxiety about the noise and the look of the instruments. The Dr. who was extremely pleasant and patient said she would give him a temporary sealant. This temporary sealant fell off while we were flossing and brushing. They set up a new appointment and quoted me 105$ and after we went the second time the charge was 275$. How did something go from 105 to 275? 675$ for one tooth that was never filled after three visits? Sinful. Today we went to get the regular check up at our dentist around the corner. The dentist told me that whatever they filled the tooth with has fallen out. I'm 675 plus out of pocket and there is still a cavity in his mouth that has not been filled. This Yummy dental is a scam for either people who have money to burn or your insurance covers everything. Will never be going there again. I'd like my money back. Send me a check.

I gave this place a high rating a few years ago, but at this time, Greed and selfishness is all…read morethis business seems to be about now. Allow me to elaborate: We have Cigna PPO dental and it's a pretty decent plan that allows us to visit any location even if they are out of network. So this place used to be in network with Cigna PPO which was great but then decided they were no longer to be in network with them, which is fine! I don't have a problem with that at all. The issue I do have is my Cigna PPO still allows me to visit this location and will pay sometimes 100% sometimes 80% or whatever, depending on the procedure. But Bright Smiles told me I have to pay EVERYTHING up front even though it may be covered by insurance and then I would be reimbursed after they determine what was and wasn't covered. I've never met any doctor or dentist who wouldn't just submit everything to insurance first and then send me a bill for the remainder after everything was processed. It's pure Greed. I'm very dissatisfied they went this route, I've had all my bills in the past with them always paid but now they won't provide any service unless I pay whatever they are asking and then after everything is cleared with insurance I must wait for reimbursement. I just think if you have PPO dental insurance bright smiles should submit everything to the insurance first and then after everything is settled then they should send you the remaining bill, if there even is one. Maybe I was told misinformation at which point please tell me and I will continue to bring my children here and change my review but so far I've spoken to 2 different people at the office and that's what I was told. Hoping to get a response on this. Thank you.

After two visits, I would NOT recommend going here if you have complex jaw issues. My issue is that my discs are displaced and locked, not just that my muscles are sore bc of clenching and griding. Went I first saw Dr. Hoffman, he recommended botox in my masseters and temples. He also recommended a repositioning split. The bill that I was given at that appointment included both the botox and the fitting for the splint which was done at the follow up appointment two weeks later. This was well over $1k. At my follow up appointment, the fitting for the splint took only about 30 seconds which I found concerning. Then i got the price for the splint which was $4k. I did not feel comfortable paying this after a 30 second measurement, so I decided to get a second opinion before moving forward. He also told me that he has only treated this in 5% or less of his patients. Overall, I am very unhappy with my experience here. I felt pressured into spending over $1000 on something that was totally unnecessary. I wish he would have been upfront and honest about his ability to treat my issue and recommended that I go somewhere that is more specialized in TMJ problems.
