They utilize an awesome appointment scheduling software that reminds you of appointments and I've always found it easy to reschedule when necessary. No waiting months to get in like some practices. I also like how we (our family of three) always see the same hygienist and Dr. Lloyd. Filing our dental insurance and using our flex medical spending account has always been seamless with the competent staff at checkout. If you are looking for a dentist in Raleigh, I highly recommend Dr. Ashley Lloyd.

She is just personality plus, and put me at ease, which was wonderful because I have had some unpleasant experiences at dental practices. Dr. Pennisi inspired confidence the moment he intered the exam room. He has a calm, positive, pleasant and professional demeaner that made me glad I had chosen his practice when I needed help.

Then they tried to quote me nearly $400 for two deep cleaning visits and did not use my insurance to cover the cost. I was in the office explaining that I was only a few weeks pospartum and could not afford to spend that amount I even begged to do just a regular cleaning, but they claimed they could do it because they didn't have time and couldn't in good consciencedo a regular cleaning when I needed a "deep cleaning." I was in the office crying to my husband over the phone, not knowing the whole time that my insurance would have covered it. When I went home, Without any cleaning or treatment of any kind, I checked my insurance and confirmed that perio maintenance cleaning was covered in my insurance and that they just did not apply my insurance correctly. I would have had to pay almost $400 for something that was already covered by my insurance for free. Then this morning I checked my dental insurance and they submitted a claim for a dental cleaning they did not perform. It is going to be a nightmare to sort this out with my insurance. WATCHOUT!!!

My procedure required a follow up appt (for a crown). I dealt with 8 people. 8. When I decided to go with a smaller practice after that experience, I mentioned my short history with Village Dental.

Today's visit was very different from my previous experiences, Dentist Chris was not as pleasant…read moreafter I came in with the same concerns I have expressed for months, and just have been given the round around, and situation band-aided prior to Chris walking in I was told it wasn't listed, which frustrated me and only to be turned around and told that this was a not a "new complaint." I was saying this and Chris got upset, and I was trying to be clear about my care today because of the back and forth. I had been given phone numbers to text with concerns to no avail. It was never my intention to debate my care, but I did feel the need to advocate for myself and ask questions about my treatment plan. Unfortunately, once I began questioning my care, Dentist Chris Martin's response felt dismissive and sarcastic, which caused me to lose confidence in a provider I once trusted. After I stated that I no longer felt comfortable proceeding with treatment that day, Dr\. Martin removed his mask and gloves and said, "Get her a referral to Chapel Hill." I left without a clear plan of care or any meaningful discussion of other treatment options. As a Black woman advocating for the proper care of my teeth, I should be able to ask questions and express concerns without feeling as though I am being difficult for doing so. Being in medicine over 20 years, i believe patients deserve to feel heard, respected, and confident in their care. Unfortunately, this experience has led me to seek dental care elsewhere. Extremely disappointed is an understatement.

I cannot say enough good things about this place. Dr. Joy has been absolutely amazing from day 1!…read more I was very reluctant to get my veneers redone mostly because, like many, absolutely hate having my teeth worked on and I wasn't mentally prepared for the process (but let's face it, was never going to be :). The day I walked into Crabtree Valley Dental, I was greeted warmly by everyone and one of the front desk staff even came out and MOVED her car for me because there weren't any parking spots left. At my first appointment, they gave me a questionnaire asking me how I wanted to be communicated with (ex. "just do what you need to do, I don't want to know", "tell me everything", etc.) which I now don't understand why all doctors don't do! I was then formally introduced to every single person I encountered from the tech to the doctor all the way to the billing person. Furthermore, what initially began for mechanical reasons has now turned into an entire transformation of my smile. Every step of the way, each team member I worked with encouraged me to not stop until I was 100% happy, including and mostly Dr. Joy. In the beginning I figured they were just being nice, but they were not. Dr. Joy was so invested in me being absolutely content and confident in my teeth and smile again. Somewhere along the way I decided to also get gum contouring and she personally called the periodontist on more than one occasion to make sure everything went well and I was taken care of. She was also in contact with the prosthetist every step of the way. The last thing I was worried about (and then I'll stop rambling) was the temporaries looking funny while the veneers were made. I was apprehensive about sharing photos yet because these are just the temps and I chipped one by accident, but attached is a before and after! I didn't have a great before pic, but the difference is amazing. If you're in need of any dental work, I would HIGHLY recommend Dr. Joy at Crabtree Valley Dental.

My mom has had an equally terrible experience with their office staff texting her sensitive medical information.

Second thing is their treatment plan. I know my teeth are not perfect, but I've been living with them my whole life and know what problems with them are. They created a plan for treatment with an estimate of more than $15,000, they included everything which didn't even bother me, and they didn't even ask me can I afford such money. They didn't ask me to prioritize it, it seemed like they just insisted on what they came up with. This is what's called the opposite to customer oriented business. Sorry, but I do not recommend this dentistry.
