First: I thought it was a little weird they have you wear a blindfold for the actual sedation, but I thought it was just supposed to help the atmosphere or whatever. It would up being so you don't see the needle. The told me I would be out of it when I was being injected with any needles and wouldn't remember it because of the oral sedation, but unfortunately it's the only part I remember and I screamed because it was so painful. They should have warned me up front honestly about this, but they didn't do now I'm warning you. Secondly, I asked them to make sure to please use a stitch since we were removing a molar and I have poor wound healing. They said they would but when I woke up said they said they were unable to because my mouth was too small? What? I had my wisdom teeth out with stitches applied and there was NO issue there. Because they didn't use a stitch, I suffered a dry socket. It was painful but when I went back they didn't really even look and they were entirely dismissive. It took an additional two months to heal and the additional filling they did fell out. Because the work they did was so bad, I called them up and told them I wasn't comfortable getting my cleaning there and to cancel it and refund that portion of my bill. They tried REALLY hard to get me to reschedule but I have no intention of going back there. They refuse to refund the cleaning they didn't give me however. So basically I have no filling, took FOREVER and was super painful to heal my pulled tooth because bad technique- and no. I wouldn't recommend.

    I've been a patient for many years with Welcome Smiles however there's been a big change in their…read morecommunication and care for their patients recently, to the point where this is my first ever review. It's at the point where I will be switching to another provider. The most recent issues are as follows. Due to an infection I was told I needed a root canal. The procedure was performed by an outside provider and the experience was horrible. At no point did that dentist seem to care about my discomfort and anxiety. After completing that procedure I was told I needed a crown. They never informed me ahead of time that I would need that. As I was checking out I was told, " of course, whenever you have a root canal you need a crown"! No consideration was given to inform me of this before the root canal so I could plan accordingly. Understand that both of these procedures are expensive (even with insurance). I then go ahead with the crown appointment. As the dentist begins the procedure I question why he's working on a different tooth. This is when I'm told that the tooth I had the root canal worked on already had a crown on it and that the tooth he was currently working on needed a crown. Shouldn't I have been told during scheduling that the crown was for a different tooth? I most likely would have chosen to pay off one procedure before scheduling the next procedure since it wasn't an emergency. Shortly after going through all this I then receive a phone call from the dentist himself, asking if I'd like to set up work on another tooth!! In all the years I've been going to a dentist, never has the dentist contacted me directlv about future procedures! This is when I feel this dental office has become more about getting money from patients than their care and needs. Fast forward to my most recent appointment. I'm scheduled for a replacement crown (the one I had cracked). I was told to plan on an hour and a half. This dentist makes the crown in their office so I was made aware that there would be about a half hour or so that I would be waiting for it to made. However, as I Wait and Wait and Wait, I can hear my dentist working on another patient in the next room. He finally comes back to me to finish. It was now 3 HOURS LATER!!! RIDICULOUS!!! At no point during this time did an assistant or the dentist check in with me or give me an explanation. It was as if I didn't exist!! It sure seems like he's double dipping to make more money by scheduling one patient between another patient! I guess he doesn't feel my TIME is worth anything!! WRONG. I will be moving on to a provider that genuinely cares and communicates clearly with their patients. I would think twice before going to this office!

    I'm not quite sure how to approach this, but here I go…read more... Imagine being able to finally afford to get your teeth straightened and having to go through at least 2 years of braces at your adult age. Then it's time to get your braces removed & you're also consulting with this dentist about tooth restoration on one tooth that is pivotal to your smile. The whole time, I worried about the costs, but I was eager to finally complete my smile. Then you go for a consultation with the dentist you've been a patient of for at least 2 years, & not only do you expect full price transparency, but you also ask. You ask & make clear; this is all dependent on the total costs before you can even proceed with the restoration. Imagine you get a quote of what was said, the full costs for this procedure through a text message, not an invoice & when you respond, what are the expected costs after insurance? They confirm in that same thread that the out-of-pocket cost is $, so you approve proceeding. Fast forward to an overall 4-step procedure for 1 tooth restoration crown that you 1) were not briefed on the entire process, 2) received an extra estimate of over $2 grand halfway through the restoration process, again, via a text message. When you ask for clarity and if this is an error, the front desk says there are secondary costs not sent to insurance yet, and she will let me know how much is covered. And it was suggested that I charge the additional costs to my credit card. This place maxed out my insurance deductible to the point that I'm not even sure a dental cleaning is covered this year. I'm medically indebted to a half procedure, in which I'm still making payments on a CareCredit card they referred me to. I'm making payments for half a job of work, when I asked for confirmation on the total costs back in February. I have a metal screw (abutment) where the crown is supposed to be, and I can't fit my retainer, so my newly straightened teeth are spacing, so back to braces for me, with this screw still hanging. My appearance is altered, my confidence is shot, and again, I am medically in debt. Is it fair that Dr. Mehta and his incompetent front desk, who he's responsible for, Irene, get to stay in business after this avoidable, controllable situation that has now turned into my personal burden? Is it ethical that they're very familiar with how insurance works and said they could've done this in the latter half of the year, so I can complete the remaining half of the restoration the following calendar year, so my insurance would cover it, after the fact? Is it ethical when I asked for a complete file, I see they only send insurance bill but there are no actual invoices attached to my file? It's just receipts. Is it right that the only alternative was Dr. Mehta, offering to remove the screw and reapply it next year, so my insurance can cover the remaining half? Can anyone answer how that would work for a process that was already charged? Let alone, this is a painful procedure & lengthy process, but Dr. Mehta suggested. When I called out the lack of transparency, & this was a completely out-of-pocket expense, had I known this was a later cost, I could've been able to negotiate a lesser price, this doctor that owns the same practice said 'you're absolutely right' but still didn't give me the option to negotiate. I was robbed of comparison, shopping alternative dentists, choice, the ability to prepare, & save thanks to Welcome Smiles. This is not good practice. These are not good people. These are not competent professionals. I was treated more like a customer than a patient.
