    Northern Star Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery - The Northern Star estimate from August 14th, 2020.

    Let me start off by saying, I understand that based on zip codes, insurance amounts can and often…read moredo differ. Regardless of this fact, Northern Star is absolutely taking advantage of their clients and overcharging on all fronts and the photos- the first one being an estimate from a VIRAL consultation with northern star on August 14th, 2020, and the second photo being from an In-person consultation I just had today with Dakota Valley in Burnsville- pretty much speak for themselves. As you can see from the first photo, Northern Star wanted to code two of my lower wisdom teeth as 'completely bony impacted'. I don't claim to be a dentist or claim to have the knowledge an oral surgeon has, but 'completely bony impacted', if you look it up, literally simply means "a tooth is completely inside of the bone and has not erupted through the gum," as in, it is not able to be seen in the mouth..... both of my lower wisdom teeth that they were claiming were "completely bony impacted" were visible in my mouth and had erupted through the gums. Another very questionable aspect was the fact that northern star tried to tell me that my four wisdom teeth would take 45 mins to 1 hr to extract, which meant they would get to charge me for a whole lot more for general anesthesia. The place I just had a consultation today told me, max, the entire procedure will take FIFTEEN MINUTES, because both the top teeth were a simple extraction and the bottom two, one was surgical completely erupted and the other is surgical partially bony. Northern Star mistook me for a young, naive 25 year old who wouldn't be bothered to do my own research or question what they were coding my wisdom tooth extraction as, which in essence, would've meant I would be getting charged ALOT more. Oh well- they lost a client and maybe this review will make them think twice about trying to FRAUDULENTLY miscode in order to overcharge unassuming clientele. DO YOUR RESEARCH.

    I went to see Dr. Sands DDS to get a 2nd opinion on some dental work I was told I needed to have…read more He was wonderful!!!! He couldn't believe that the 1st dentist I saw, said I needed 3 root canals & 3 crowns, when in fact I didn't need any of them! He was honest & saved me thousands of dollars!!!! I can't thank him and all the other HONEST Dr's out there. Their aren't many. Thank you so much!!!! I'll be referring friend's & family to you!!!

    Seriously reconsider your options before letting this fool near your mouth -I just spent another…read moreseveral thousand dollars having his work re-done as he's clearly out of touch with current procedures. At first I figured, well, he's old, so he should know what he's doing....WRONG! After comparing the techniques utilized by the Dr. who corrected his botched root canal, this guy just needs to hang up his drill and retire. He didn't use a latex barrier around the tooth (this prevents bacteria-laden saliva from running down the hole and infecting the open canal) and generally wanted to just make chit-chat with you -while he was drilling! Dude, pay attention! I'm not here because we're friends, nor do I want to hear about your opinions of "people on the dole," you old-conservative twit! But I can recommend Dr Samantha Harris -she was incredibly thorough and professional. The kind of dentist that restores my faith in the fact that not all of them are D-bags....just far too many of them....

Made the mistake of thinking of her as a close acquaintance. My husband and I just transitioned to Medicare two months ago. When I called the office to verify coverage I was told both of our Medicare plans are out of network. That's because she does not accept Medicare. Payment up front is required and the patient has to bill Medicare themselves for whatever compensation is available for being out of network. I contacted Dr Melissa to remind her that she told me years ago if we ever were on an insurance she was not in network with, that she would become in network. No anymore. Her words "It's a business decision". Unbelievable. It also has impacted our adult daughter who we referred there and she now finds herself out of network through her new employer plan. I'm so glad we could help her business grow to the point she now owns the building she is in. Lesson learned. This dentist is truly about the money.

    I saw Dr. Ballin to have a growth on my tongue removed and another time for a consult to have my…read morewisdom teeth removed. This office is a well-oiled machine and runs so incredibly smoothly. I was very impressed. Dr. Ballin was matter of fact but kind, however, during my procedure I became a bit scared due to medical PTSD from an extended hospital stay because of being caught in a house fire. Something triggered that, and I began to mildly hyperventilate. Rather than speak kindly and softly to me to try to calm me down, Dr. Ballin became irritated and snapped at me to calm down and not hyperventilate. This did not help. When I went to see him for the wisdom tooth removal consult, totally unprompted, he told me, "Because of how your throat is built, you would still have sleep apnea even if you weren't so heavy." Thanks for the comment on my weight, sir, but pretty sure I did not ask for your opinion either on that or on sleep apnea. He lost my business after this. I now use OMS. If you're thin, he's a great oral surgeon, but if you're "heavy" I'd suggest avoiding his practice since he seems to be unable to keep his thoughts on appearance to himself.

    My husband needed an emergency extraction and a friend recommended Dr. Ballin. As far as these…read morekinds of experiences can go, ours was fantastic!
