If you have previous traumatic dental experiences, if the thought of going to the dentist incites…read morepanic to the point you avoid going, there is a place you can go where your fears will be respected and you will be treated with care, compassion, and gentleness. The horrors inflicted on far too many people in the dark years of denistry's past has left many older adults with intense fear of dentists. I know I'm one of them. My teeth have suffered from my terror of dentists. Yesterday I summoned my courage to visit Dr. Amy Ruf at The Dentists at Ralston Square. Dr.Ruf has a true heart for her patients and does everything in her power to make people feel safe and comfortable with her. She is first dentist that I have felt I just might learn to trust in time. If you have avoided the dentist out of fear, I hear you. If you can summon the courage, go see Dr. Amy at Ralston Square. She will take good care of you.

Ugh, Yelp is not my favorite place to look at reviews of banks, insurances, and medical offices…read morebecause the people who come on here are always like the review below. Then, in case someone actually uses this review, I feel like it's only fair to share my experience. I read the review below and still want to know what "Karen" felt was incompetent other than her opinions that her dentist shouldn't go on vacation and assuming that sharing a bottle of wine makes one hung over. All I read was that Karen sound like a really enjoyable person to be around (insert sarcasm). Although, if Karen speaks to your inner self, this office certainly isn't for you. Dr Reed and her staff are a breath of fresh air and you can go in and talk like a normal person. No annoying, higher pitched fake professional talk. In the two years of living here, I've had conversations about our kids, family, hawaiian/asian heritage, her knitting conferences, and (gasp Karen!) expensive Rothy's shoes. My husband had a gnarly mouth bc he's scared of the dentist and they've worked with him on schedule to get his cleanings regular. My daughter (now 2) had her first dentist visit and loved it. Thanks to Dr. Reed and staff, my daughter won't end up terrified of a dry scary dentist like my husband is. Now let's move on to me. I don't have anything crazy going on with teeth as I took care of them, however I had been for the past decade considering putting caps on my teeth for aesthetic reasons. Dr. Reed is the 3rd dentist in 3 states I've lived in that I've asked about. She is the only one that discouraged me to do it due to my teeth being in great condition, but said that if I wanted to proceed I should meet with a ortho to make sure that my bite wouldn't be compromised by my teeth. Sure enough, I got a second opinion by another dentist and they said that was the best advice and if I would've listened to the two others that were willing to do it and collect the money, I would've had bite issues. In conclusion to this embarrassingly long review, Dr. Reed's office is a gem and the care has been great.

We chose Total Dental because our insurance took it and it was close to our house without looking at the reviews. I went there for my first 2 regular cleanings. I go regularly every 6 months. They told my husband he should go every 3 months (he went even though he had to pay out of pocket for one of the cleanings every year). I had extreme pain in my front tooth because of a possible injury when I was younger. I saw Dr. Thorson, who is absolutely wonderful!! She saw me right away and referred me to an Endodontics practice. The practice that accepted my insurance couldn't get me in for over a month. Dr. Thorson stated to me in front of the dental hygienist that "if I ran out of antibiotics before I got into to see the Midwest Endodontics that all I needed to do is call her up and she would prescribe some more to get me through until I could see them for the root canal." Unfortunately, she went on maternity leave (which I totally understand) BUT the office manager (Danica Wicht) had no back up plan for her. When, I called some dental hygienist that I had absolutely no prior dental relationship with called me and stated to me "that they don't do that". She also kept saying "she wasn't in the room with me" I told her I knew that she wasn't in the room with me. I kindly asked her if she had my chart to look at and she said no. I was very shocked that a medical professional that hadn't been in the room with me (her own words) wouldn't have the chart to rely on. She never asked me my pain level either. Not one time during our phone conversation. Very disturbing as when you look at Total Dental's website they describe themselves as dental anxiety experts with over 40 years of experience. I asked to speak to an office manager and Dr. Courtney Molettiere got on. This woman needs to never me in medicine or dental care. Her bio reads "One of my favorite things about my profession is the chance to build relationships with patients" She is not an experienced Dentists. Read her bio and prior reviews about her. Highly do NOT recommend her. Very immature and never even read my chart before talking to me. You can see from other reviews, that other patients have said that EXACT same thing that I'm saying about Dr. Molettietiere. She was rude, unprofessional, never looked at my chart. Also found out later from the Practice Manager, that she shared information with 3 other people in her office (that was not necessary) and a complete violation of HIPPA. My medical information should only be shared on a need-to-know basis. They should realize that. In addition, I paid out of pocket for X-rays and was not even notified of the costs upfront. This practice has very inexperienced Dentists. I've gone to Dentists across the country my entire life AND never experienced the unprofessionalism of this office including the practice manager who called me from her cell phone in car and didn't even have my chart or information to know what she was referring to. The only thing she could say is she knew everyone in the "Office for 10 years" This should be handled using actual facts like a business NOT a like a friendship. In short, you have TONS of options in Elkhorn. I found another Dental practice within a few hours for my husband and me that honored both our military service and was kind and friendly, verified my insured, gave me upfront costs. Read their website of what they promise and then read the many reviews of patients that have actually visited this horrible dental clinic specifically the Elkhorn, Nebraska clinic. Highly DO NOT recommend this horrible practice!

At one point I had a filling done and a few days later ended up having the tooth with the filling taken out at the same time as my extremely troublesome wisdom teeth which had to happen at an oral surgeon who doctor Schneider recommended, and the next time I went to back to the dentist she had put a credit for the amount I had paid for that filling since the tooth came out shortly afterwards. It wasn't her fault that my wisdom teeth did such damage. I also know that all members of the staff here are treated very well, most of them have been working together a long time, which is so nice to see! A place with low turnover is always a green flag!
