We've happily used North Texas, dental, Dr.Nguyen, ever since we moved to Denison, Texas, four…read moreyears ago, without any problems until this year. very happy practices they have changed their financial rules this year, and they are ridiculous. I had to have a four tooth bridge, and I don't feel like I was fully informed about my options or what the bridge would be like when I received it. I found out on my last day of treatment as Dr. Chris was putting the permanent bridge in my mouth, that he had made the larger than my teeth, because he felt it would be stronger that way. The bridge is ill- fitting and it rubs the side of my cheek all the time. It is visibly larger than the other teeth, that Dr Kris told me I would get used to it and not notice the size difference. It is very hard to clean with any floss I have tried, but then I was never told what kind of floss to use. I have found that it also affects my speech production. If things have been fully explained to me from the beginning, I would have opted for dental implants, too late for that now! I've already spent almost $6000.00 on this bridge and have experienced a lot of pain and discomfort along with it, so I am not happy. Additionally, this office has changed its financial policies, and now require total estimated payment up front, before any work will be done. This policy started in August. My agreement with them started in May/June, so should not apply to me in the first place. We made a generous down payment, required in my agreement, and then when it came time to pay the balance, the accounting was all screwed up. My account was mingled in with my husband's, and she could not tell what was mine or his. she was insistent that we pay almost $300 on my husband, that he had already paid. She said he did not pay it and she could not find it anywhere in the computer. Finally, after a long financial meeting, she found his payment made actually above the amount she was requiring me to pay. My husband had to walk out of that meeting because he knew he was going to say something very ugly, and he works very hard to not do that. I brought my me, but she said that didn't matter because they didn't have them and I said I have them right here, and she said she had to get her own copies from the insurance, that mine would not meet her needs, and in the meantime, I had to pay the total amount she estimated was still due. She was very insistent, rotely repeatedly the same thing over and over, that I had to pay her estimate. I finally had to say, " you can have a choice, I can leave here paying nothing or I can leave here paying the amount I show that Medicare says I owe you after processing the claim." she stated that the choice is that I must pay upfront in the future and that today I had to pay what they estimated I have would owe. she said it didn't matter that I had They had to get their own EOB before they would have the exact amount I would owe. She never did actually choose, but she did accept my payment according to my Medicare statement from the EOB. THEN TODAY WHEN MY HUSBAND WENT IN FOR A CLEANING, SHE MADE HIM PAY OVER $200 BECAUSE SHE SAID HIS BENEFITS HAD RAN OUT. HE TOLD HER HE HAD NOT HAD HIS BENEFITS RUN OUT AND SHE WAS MISTAKEN. ANYWAY, HE LEFT PAYING OVER $200 THAT HE DID NOT OWE, which we both were sure was applied to my supposed balance, especially since his receipt showed my name only at the top. All of this financial distress caused us was only about a pittance of $300 difference in what Medicare said I should pay and what she wanted me to pay. so they are cooking the books, trying to confuse the customer to get more money that is not due them. I am very sorry you have lost two of your PAYING patients, and sorry we have to find A new dentist. ALL over a tiny percentage of a bill we had already paid. you will lose more patients over this, so I dont see how this is going to help your finances, which obviously are in a dilemma.

I have been a patient at this office for years and spent thousands to get my family the care they…read moreneeded. When relocating to the area I chose this office specifically and truly felt my children were gaining education and positive relationships with a dentistry I could trust. Today I made an emergency appointment due to a broken tooth that occurred over the weekend. I made a down payment to ensure I could attend this appointment in a timely manner to not worsen my injury. After numbing occurred, they brought me an itemized bill showing the insurance money they would receive and the very hefty payment I would have to make prior to getting care. Although they have received a massive amount of money from me both from insurance and out of pocket over the years they were rigid on not being willing to allow partial payment and bank info for a resolution the following day. Melanie mentioned that they have been charitable, although invoices show my commitment to pay for services received. This placement of finances over patient care, specifically in a critical situation, reveals their true priorities. It is obvious that with a lack of immediate care and worsening of this tooth fracture, they would only gain further financial transaction in the long run. I would recommend you choose a dentist who wants to maintain relationship with your family, who will care when your situation is critical, and who does not give you a solution of "there are other dentists you could try" Thank you Melanie, for helping me and others within our community to understand that your office has no commitment to actually maintaining patients. Healthcare facilities that function as a rotating door for new patients without priority in keeping faithful patients should be testimony enough. in the words of their own employee "you should try elsewhere."

I had to take several painful shots in the top of my mouth, and a direct needle shot in the cavity; 2. I was charged for a bottom partial that never fit, and I had to return to the office several times for adjustments on the bottom partial that only worked for about a day. I never wore the bottom partial for more than a day after the adjustments. It was painful and never fit correctly; 3. When I came to get my permanent bottom partial, it was made with the middle curvature as an upper partial. The partial had to be bent correctly to the curvature to my lower mouth. It was a total foul-up. There was no admission or taking responsibility of the foul-up. They adjusted the lower partial then came back to me with it adjusted but not enough to were my tongue isn't scraping the foul-up middle curvature. Instead of redoing the bottom partial, they told me if they adjust the partial more it might break. I have contacted Aspen Dental Corporate Office. But, have not received a response as on 01-19-26. The next step is to have my lawyer send a request.

I would have been willing and preferred to wait for a later date for this surgery. Carefully do your own research and studies on the Internet. The office shows a video of implant surgery. I wish I had had a better education of what kind of problems to be aware of, and when to call the office. Implants are not perfect like the office video implies. There can be side effects and problems. I would have preferred knowing the down side of full mouth implants so I could make an educated guess/decision rather than rely on what a surgeon wanted me to hear For post surgery concerns, the office at Texas Center for Oral Surgery & Dental Implants instructed me to call the lab, which answers the phone 24/7. Nope. I called the lab. A few days later I heard a response on my voice mail (I'm paraphrasing here) "I'm at the Chicago airport, and not in the office, so I can't look at my records right now to answer your question. I'll see you in the office on Monday ." I was the patient. But, I had to turn into a detective to discover what problems needed attention. I relied too much on the Dr to make these decisions - bad mistake. I'm now considering paying for an independent consultation for help to understand what this business should have helped me understand. Five weeks before the scheduled final exam for the permanent implants, the assistant Dr announced, at that Monday appointment previously mentioned, that this was my last visit with the office The final decisions were going to be made that day, and I should visit my regular dentist should any other problems arise. Also my regular Dentist would install the implants. Surprise! How did I miss this? And how did I miss there would be an additional dental charge for crowns on top of the lower jaw implants? There was still swelling and I should have refused signing the paperwork acknowledging this as my final visit. The completely satisfied guarantee no longer applied. Dr Vicker's caring phone call came late at night, long after I was asleep. Don't be impressed by this service. My surgery was 9 months ago. I am still struggling to understand what might be causing my post surgical problems. Before my surgical date, the Flower Mound office called to ask if I would be willing to change my surgical date to a week earlier so the office could book an anesthesiologist for two surgeries on the same day. I agreed to do so - no problem. However, on the day of surgery, the office asked me to sign a form allowing Dr Vickers to administer the anesthesia. I read the paperwork work carefully and discovered this change without being advised of the change. My answer: "NO!" I have enough medical concerns that I doubted Dr Vickers would watch carefully even though his is "trained" in administering anesthesia. The anesthesiologist spent 30 minutes asking questions about my medical concerns related to anesthesia. I doubt I spent 5 minutes total with Dr Vickers before and after surgery. I learned a few months ago, that anesthesia is not required for this surgery. I would have appreciated knowing this so I could make an informed decision. I regret letting myself be rushed into these upper and lower implants. A few weeks after surgery and many questions later, I discovered the work for a $2400.00 charge was not done. I requested a refund and tge office graciously sent the refund.I think Dr Vickers failed to inform his billing department of the surgical changes. Don't rush into trusting this surgeon to do the surgery. Most of these reviews are old. Dr Vickers seems to have turned from a careful, attentive surgeon to a carefully calculated coorporate "get her done" attitude. There are analysts in the business world making loads of money by advising doctors how to build their practice, make more money and have more free time. Do your research to find this. I believe there are other oral surgeons in the area that are well-educated, experienced, and are able to be careful and more helpful. The office staff is pleasant. Dr Vickers is pleasant. Don't be fooled or manipulated by this.

I felt embarrassed by that. I went into my first appointment here with the thought that none of my teeth were salvageable and I would need implants for every tooth. I had set the bar low because I had already grieved everything that my invisible illness had taken from me at such a young age. I didn't want to feel judged. That being said, Dr. Anver completely shifted my perspective. He was encouraging and comforting, while still respecting my perspective. He came up with a treatment plan catered to my own personal goals and was determined to do whatever he could to help me. I literally cried in the office because I had not expected that response at all, and he gave me the space and time to do so. His team does a phenomenal job at making their clients feel at home, creating a safe and welcoming environment for their guests, and answering any and all questions you may have. They made sure they met me where I was at and met any needs and expectations I had. They are the absolute best, and I would highly recommend them! (P.S. they play the best music too )

I do not recommend this office. I called because of the strong Yelp reviews, but unfortunately, my…read moreexperience was the opposite. This was a one-minute phone call, and it was enough to turn me off. I explained that we had already done a consultation with another oral surgeon in Saginaw and were shocked by their request for $2,000 upfront, which is why I was calling around for options. Before I could even explain further, the woman immediately cut in with, "Wisdom teeth removal is $4,000-$6,000," which felt dismissive and rushed. When I asked how that could apply to an insured patient--since in-network providers are limited to insurance-allowed amounts--she clarified that was the cash price, not the insured price. I explained that we have insurance and even dual dental coverage. She then told me they only bill the primary insurance, expect patients to pay the balance up front, and require the patient to file the secondary insurance themselves. While this may be common with some private dental offices in DFW, that doesn't make it reasonable. National dental groups understand how to bill properly by submitting both insurance plans and only collecting what they reasonably expect the final patient balance to be. In our case, that meant going from being asked to pay $2,000 upfront elsewhere to paying $300 upfront, with the expectation that the full amount would likely be refunded once secondary insurance processed. When I declined to continue the conversation, her response was a cold, uninterested "Have a good day." No explanation, no attempt to discuss options, and no effort to retain a potential patient. I never even got to this office's actual pricing because I was being rushed off the phone. For comparison, I contacted Monarch Dental, and the experience was night and day. They reviewed both insurance plans over the phone, gave a clear explanation, and booked my son's surgery in under 48 hours. The surgeon's reviews were excellent, and the process was seamless. We're now booked and moving forward--but this office lost a potential customer due to poor communication and lack of patient care. Final recommendation: if you have secondary insurance or want clear billing and options, proceed with caution here. National dental groups offer a far smoother, more patient-centered experience.
