I needed a new dentist because I'm new to the area. Dr. Pogoda's office is close to my office. I will say right off the bat that the staff is nice enough. The dentist (not Dr. Pogoda) who filled a cavity made a lewd comment while he was poking around in my mouth. I was unable to respond. The hygienist was right there, didn't say a thing. Maybe it went over her head. Still, I went back for more torture to have my teeth whitened in-house because it was convenient. The hygienist who performed this procedure burned my lips with the formula and the ultra-violet light. She walked away a couple of times and I couldn't speak/ scream. Obviously, she didn't know what she was doing. DON'T GET YOUR TEETH WHITENED HERE. I was furious - and it totally wasn't worth it even if she hadn't burned my lips - not much of a difference. I will probably get skin cancer. The burns were there for days and blistered. I went back to pick up my take-home whitening kit and to let her know about the damage she did, but she wasn't there. I complained to another hygienist about it. Also, the bonding the dentist put on did not hold. read more
