    Tooth decay on the sides of my teeth

    Pappas and Tappley orthodontist WAS the best. I have been to pappas and Tappleys for over two years now. And the new lead orthodontist has screwed up my teeth. In October I got my braces off and I started with a set of retainers and got check ups every six months, along with new sets of retainers. I brush my teeth every night every morning, and all was ok. My teeth did look discolored from braces but it was fine, since it was going to go away..so said the dentist. Then my teeth got more sensitive as time went on.(still wearing my retainers every day) And around March 27 no less than two weeks ago, I went back. And what all he said was "go brush your teeth for me". After I did, I went back and he was already with another patient. The other dentist said here's more bottom retainers and I went home . fast forward today and I have MASSIVE CAVITIES ALL DOWN THE ROWS OF MY TEETH. If this was happening over a span of time, tooth decay, and cavities WHY DIDNT HE DO HIS JOB AND SEE IT/SAY SOMETHING. He dosent care. He's just trying to go to patient to patient and go home. It's just a different environment now. And I'm not the only one with this tooth decay problem due to the retainers. Other reviews have the SAME issue. The orthodontist not caring/doing his job and the retainers causing tooth decay. If you are planning from getting retainers here please take your money and go somewhere else before it's to late!! I'm already switching as of when it opens back up. One star only because I miss the past owners.

    Love love love this dentist. They have been soooo helpful and accommodating to my schedule and what…read moreI need done. I had my wisdom teeth extracted surgically in office and I had no problems after. Everything went smoothly and I healed up quick. Now I come back every six months for my teeth cleaning. Marquis always does an excellent job with my cleanings. He's very gentle and asks me if I'm doing ok through the whole process. I appreciate that very much because of how nervous I get for the dentist sometimes. But I highly recommend requesting him for your next visit!

    After being a patient here for several years, I feel it's important to share my recent experience,…read morewhich ultimately led me to move my entire family to another dental office. I recently had a dental emergency around lunchtime that neither my dentist nor anyone else in the practice could accommodate. What was most disappointing wasn't just the lack of availability; but the complete absence of any solution. No referral, no guidance, no contingency plan for an established (waitlist for cancelation), loyal patient in need. To be clear, the hygienists and even back office payment staff here are wonderful, and I will genuinely miss those interactions. However, the doctors personal phone staff and overall customer service fell far short. Basic patient support (especially during an emergency) should be a standard, not an exception. It was like common sense and compassion was missing from this Doctors personal team, just beyond disappointing. For a well-established practice, not having any after-hours options, emergency protocols, or even the ability to point patients in the right direction to a referral/partner office shows a concerning lack of care and consideration for loyal clientele and honestly borderline negligence to their patience overall dental needs. New Flash: Life actually continues after 5pm. Because I was left without help/guidance, I had to search elsewhere on my own. Thankfully, I found another dental office that treated me quickly, compassionately, and efficiently. That experience made the contrast very clear. As a result, this office has lost not only me as a long time client but my entire family; and unfortunately, I can no longer recommend this dental practice to others as I have in the past. Customer service matters. Even when you can't solve the problem directly, showing effort, compassion, and a willingness to help goes a long way. That was missing here, perhaps this review will inspire them to make the needed changes so another client does not have this experience.

    If I could give zero stars I would. Not only did I wait for an entire hour just to find out that…read morethey were having issues with the billing. No communication until approached around hour mark. Also that they could not properly type out my group name, even though it was printed right in front of them. Let alone the secretary could not spell the words of the cities Nevada and Minneapolis. I think that alone proves the level of unprofessionalism at this office. Find people terrible work they're gonna do everything they can to get the money out of your wallet. I questioned everything before I went in, you should too. if you go to the dentist here look at your pay schedule carefully know what your insurance covers. Wasted an hour from 9:30am-10:30am in their dingy office.

    My husband and I had an appointment yesterday. My…read moreexperience, when you walked into the office it was dingy... It appeared that the patient files were all kept in banker boxes lined up in the hallway and pack of the office. Questioned, how safe is the patient data. Then the actual dental chair, had rust on all of the joints of the chair. So much that the arm would not raise for me to get into the chair. The visit with the 'dentist' is via a teams chat. One of the routine checks that is performed is a cancer screening that is not covered by our insurance. My husband who is checked every 3 months for any type of cancer declined that screening. Because he would not let them perform that check, the declined service to him to have his annual teeth cleaning. Since they would not see him without that check and the dingy condition of this office, we will not be going back.
