I wish I had never gone to this dentist. I wish I had never referred my aunt AND a good friend to them. This is a long story, I'll try and make it short, so bare with me.... in 2019 I had 6 or 8 teeth pulled from the top and had a top plate made. At first, I thought everything was great and that Dr. Redmond and his staff were absolutely amazing. However, with in months I was back in there getting it a cushion liner put in the top plate.... he had to do this for me multiple times!!!! In addition to me having to use fixodent multiple times a day just to keep it in my mouth. It never suctioned the way it was supposed to... then I was told he wouldn't do that anymore, that I should buy something online and do it myself. During this time, I was being fitted for a lower partial. It had to be done 5 times... and yes, he did continue to work on it until it was right, however it was never done right, it never fit right without pain. And finally he just threw his hands up, told me he couldn't do anything else to help me and that it wasn't a dental problem, it was a medical one and he sent me to a doctor that did not take insurance and wanted over $800 out of pocket to even sit in her chair. I was lost, didn't know what to do, my right jaw was so painful I could barely open my mouth! But he couldn't have cared any less, his answer was to pawn me off on his doctor/dentist friend. So, after over a year of trying to go through my medical doctor to get treatment for "trigeminal neuralgia" I've been attempting to wear the last lower partial that was made for me. You know, the one that was supposed to fit but because of my "medical not dental problem. Well, big surprise it still does not fit right and causes pain when I've been pain free in that jaw for months.
Now, it is 2022 and my upper was made in 2019. Bare in mind, the suction was never right with this plate and I was in there every few months in the beginning to have it cushioned, relined, or whatever it's called. It is now getting to the point where I literally have to use fixodent powder and/or paste, at least 4 times every single day!! People have top plates that stay put every where I look and for some reason mine has never done that. He wants to charge me $100 to get this cushion stuff put on my top plate. Something that takes him maybe 10 minutes. And according to him, the cushion grip on Amazon, does just as well as what he an do in his office. Well cushion grip on Amazon is less than $10.
His staff was more than rude, and today wasn't the first time. He has thrown his hands up with me and my mouth because, in his words, I make to much saliva, so it's my fault nothing fits in my mouth right.
Anyway, he may be the cheapest, but just remember, there's a reason for that!!!!!! I was 100% wrong about him, as a dentist and person, and 100% wrong about his staff. read more
