I moved to CT 6 years ago... say hi to Covid. Once life returned to our new normal, I was in need &…read moreI mean really needed to find a dentist. During covid, my back tooth cracked, a crown broke, it was just all not good. Going to see Dr. Salesky and his team was the smartest thing I've done. Judgement free and an amazing staff. The first thing he asked me is "what don't I like about my smile". At first I was a bit surprised since the back of my mouth needed help but I told him one of my teeth looks discolored. Well not only did Dr. Selensky and his team jump into action repairing the back teeth but before I left, he had adjusted the shade of my front area tooth and it was like a gift. Gentle, kind, patient and so very thoughful. That is for everyone in the office. They all go above and beyond. Simply amazing. My message: Don't be afraid, just call and I know you will feel the same way. I've been with him now for a few years and he takes his time discussing options, your choice always and while my teeth were not in amazing shape, I trusted him and today I left there with tears in my eyes because my smile had never looked better. You don't know how good it feels to smile until you haven't been smiling for a long time. Thank you to all of you at Southington Dentistry - keep making the world smile! Oh and today they even had lavender scented cool cloths so I could clean up and relax before I walked out SMILING!

My daughter recently got all four of her wisdom teeth removed and at first I felt like she was in…read moregreat hand. The staff from check in to check out were great and the office was well put together and clean. What I'm disappointed in is the postoperative care we received by Dr. Fenton himself. After the procedure, my daughter had the normal post operative symptoms, especially from what I thought was post anesthesia side effects. Since that first day she has been running a fever and has been in extreme pain, again what I thought was normal. She has taken her dose of medications correctly and consistently and has only felt ok for a couple of hours throughout the day, by the evening her symptoms worsened. It is now 3 days later and we are in the Emergency Room due to a fever of 103.1 and tachycardia. Dr. Fenton was not sympathetic at all when he called me back yesterday morning and the reason I decided to bring her to the hospital. I tried not to call because we were following the instructions we were given and she was on top of her postoperative care but for some reason she has gotten worse instead of better. When I tried explaining that to Dr. Fenton at first he seemed ok but the more questions I asked the more annoyed he seemed to get with me. All I wanted was his professional opinion and if we are doing something wrong because when you know your children, you know them and my daughter was not ok. When I left the message I made sure I mentioned that she has history of seizures and that's why I was concerned about the fevers she was getting his response from as "well that's something that should've been mentioned, it's not in the chart." That is something we never forget to mention. He basically said she was dramatic because of her age (teenager), she's 18 not 13. I even tried to tell him I understood what he was trying to explain to me because I also work in the medical field and deal with postoperative care weekly but that seemed to set him off. He told me he did not care about what my background was and that he didn't need to talk with me about that but all I was doing was letting him know I understood but there's something wrong with my daughter. He told me to talk with her primary care doctor and to keep hydrated and he was also chuckling like if it wasn't a serious matter. I have never dealt with this kind of situation with a professional in my life. I have worked in the medical field since 18yrs old and never came across a MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL like I did Dr. Fenton. We are in the ER getting testing done and temporary treatment until we find out what is going on and have proof of it all. What was suppose to be good Doctor Patient care turned into what felt like I was bother to his Sunday morning. I wish we could've experienced the type of care I read on these other reviews because that is NOT the same doctor I spoke with. All I wanted was him to be understanding and reassure me that everything was ok but it feel that way. It's important to make sure your patients are doing ok after surgery especially when it comes to the mouth. I will never recommend anyone to that place, don't let the nice office and staff fool you because the man behind that is anything but sympathetic and professional, I should've realized that the moment he walked in and didn't introduce himself before getting my daughter started for the procedure, he just got straight to the point

He made my experience not only pain-free removing 2 teeth one on each side of my mouth but fast. I swear it must have took him less than 3 minutes at least that's what it felt like maybe even less time. Barely bleed. He works clean and precise. This man is amazing. I can't recommend him enough.

They also charged me for teeth to be pulled that he ended up not pulling and that was a nightmare to get the money back. He wanted to credit me and told me he'd knock it off the next visit. WTF. This place should be in a comedy sketch. Seriously it's that insane. 0 out 5 stars

My entire experience with Dr. Strickland and his assistant Erin was fantastic through and through…read more I had a broken crown that had got extremely infected to where the odor of the infection could be noticed by other people during casual conversation. Most dentist I went to see about getting the crown fixed continuously pointed me in the most expensive direction which was to extract the tooth and get an implant. Dr. Strickland demonstrated that he cares about the patient more then financial gain because he was able to redo the horrible root canal that I had previously, salvage my tooth and he used a fiber post instead of a metal post for my crown knowing I have toddler children who occasionally head-but , punch , and kick my face (accidentally most of the time lol) preventing the crown to break as easy if he were to have put in a metal post. He is very diligent and precise in his work and I strongly suggest to use Dr. Strickland for all of your dental needs. Dr. Strickland's assistant Erin was a complete joy to have cleaning my mouth and did a great job of removing hardened Planck and stains from smoking off of my teeth. Even though it required a lot of hard scraping of the teeth and around the gums she was very careful and made sure I was comfortable for what could have been extremely painful if someone heavy handed and inconsiderate was doing the same work. I was able to leave the office with minimal pain and teeth that are now 3 shades brighter. On top of the good work , the office is a very present place to get work done and waiting for your appointment. When you walk in you are immediately greeted by the staff and the environment is very positive. From the cozy fireplace , the good music and modern decorations and equipment my experience was a 10/10. I would suggest Plainville family dental to anyone who needs any kind of dental work. Thanks Dr. Strickland!!!!
