I went to two other places that wanted to pull a tooth of mine and sell me implants, Dr. Scott was able to save it no problem! Teeth cleaning and any other work is a breeze! Kim, his assistant and hygienist is so friendly and gentle. Shelly, his office manager and front-end part of the operation, is always so cheerful. She always has answers to your questions or is a stone throw from the doc. If you have any issues she follows up with you within minutes on the phone, not days like some commercial francises. Dr. Scott's bedside manner is impeccable. He treats you like a person and not just some cash cow, and prices are on par with anywhere else. Paragon caters to real cowards, like myself, and takes care of any anxiety or issues you may have. Paragon Dental is easy to find and travel to within the North Hills. I am not a paid advertiser nor do I receive any compensation for this review. I am just an extremely happy customer who now actually doesn't mind running out to the dentist! A+++! Appointments are easy to make and you won't wait weeks or months like some "dental factories" out there. This is top-notch personalized care. Located the North Hills and a stone's throw from Downtown Pittsburgh. You are a simple phone call away from a team that will change your life! What are you waiting for?!?! Dr. Scott is very experienced and actually worked as a dentist at another place I won't mention. This is where I met him. He left that practice and I was very depressed dental wise and put off going anywhere for at least a year. Then as things would have happened and the planets aligned just right, here I found Dr. Scott again! His new place is phenomenal like his care! Now I've been there three or four times in the past three months (catching up on care) and look forward to it! Instead of being treated like a bank or an idiot, I am treated by him and his whole staff like a friend. Genuinely they all are just good, caring souls. Thanks, Dr. Chad Scott, Kim, and Shelly!

I have already referred a few people there, and they have nothing but positive things to say as well.

After a very bad experience years ago I have been terrified of dentists. I did go to a dentist who…read morewas a personal friend the past several years but he retired. When I cracked a tooth and needed other work done I decided to try the Dental Spa. And I am so glad I did, The initial exam was very pleasant, the dental hygienists were fun, gentle and kind. The massage chair and getting to watch the Olympics on the ceiling mounted TV really helped. It was decided I needed several root canals and some permanent bridges to replace some missing back teeth and redo my front teeth which were also losing the rather large fillings. It was scheduled and I was given a prescription for a sedative. They also gave me a whitening kit so my lower front teeth would be their whitest when the upper front bridge were made. I had the 5 hour procedure 4 days ago.I went into the relaxation room, laid down on a comfortable chaise with a fluffy blanket. There was a soft glow from a salt lamp, ocean sounds playing and a scented candle burning. After I was sedated they did the procedures. Next thing I know I was being tucked into my bed at home, no memory of the surgery at all.There was minimal swelling, very little pain and the temporary bridges look amazing,just like my real teeth. I can't wait until the permanent ones come in. They called me 2 days after the procedure to see how I was doing and had me come back in today to check my bite and make any slight corrections. It was a wonderful experience and I would really recommend The Dental Spa at Robinson, Dr. Runco and his entire staff to everyone.

First, let me say the dentist did a good job. No problems in that area. The problems started with…read morethe office's draconian policies. You have to cancel an appointment A WEEK IN ADVANCE or they charge you! Who knows a week ahead of time if something is going to come up that would make you cancel an appointment? Plus they make you pay a deposit when you make an appointment and you have to prepay BEFORE the appointment starts. I've never heard of that. So, you can see where their priorities lies. I went in for an assessment and received a lengthy treatment plan. I made an appointment and it wasn't until a few days later I thought maybe they were planning to do all the work at once. I called to ask and yes, it was the case. That was too much work at once for me so I arranged to get just a few procedures at my next appointment. I wasn't given an amount I was expected to pay at the appointment. I checked the treatment plan and determined the copays would be covered by my flexcard for Medicare so was not prepared for a large expenditure. I went in for the appointment and the person at the desk was quite rude. I went to the desk and waited for her to acknowledge me but she didn't so I said my name, waited again and she didn't say anything. So I started to go and sit down. Then she said something about signing some papers so I turned around and went back to the desk. Apparently, I was supposed to pay $1200 that day before my appointment to prepay on crowns for root canals I was getting which I had not expected. As I hadn't prepared for that amount, I was taken aback and what was going through my head in that split second was what's the best way to pay this for me financially? Will they charge me a fee if I cancel? Will I lose my deposit? What cards do I have on me? Do I have time to do a transfer from savings to checking? Should I take money from my 401k? In my haste I thought I could use my flexcard and put the rest on the only credit card I had with me that would cover it, which I didn't really want to as it had a high balance already. I also have pretty rough physical issues that make just going somewhere a major chore so I didn't want to have to come back. So, I try 3 times to put my flexcard through their machine and each time it didn't work. Finally, the girl spoke up and said the last customer's card didn't work either. It wasn't till much later that I realized she probably wasn't pressing the right buttons. It was completely their fault as I checked later and the card was fine. So, I ended up putting the entire amount on my credit card. It was a lengthy procedure with alot of novacaine involved and wasn't till the next day that I felt better and thought I probably should have used another card I had that had no interest for 6 months so I called to see if they would switch my bill to the other card. Guess what? They refused. They said they paid a fee for me to use my card and they weren't going to pay a second fee. When I suggested they call the credit card company and try to get the fee waived they brushed me off. And, she said, "Well, you signed these papers" like I was disputing the amount and I thought that very rude. She also made some other rude comments. So, now, I'm stuck paying almost 30% interest every month for God knows how long until I pay off the entire balance on my card and my minimum payment has doubled. I had to go back to get my crowns but that's it. They mysteriously weren't able to take my flexcard plus sprung this large bill on me and wouldn't do anything to make it right. I'm done with them.

I checked in online and was seen within a few minutes of me arriving at the office. There is two hour free parking in the adjacent UPMC Mercy parking garage.

The office sends directions on how to get into the building and to their suite. I would call and double check to clarify if you have any questions. My cleaning and X-rays only took thirty minutes and the doctor was there shortly after to take another look at my teeth. Everyone was really professional and kind and I felt comfortable throughout the whole experience. I know finding a dentist is tough, but I will gladly recommend this practice to others.
