    This is the online review you're looking for about this shady dental clinic led by unskilled…read moredentists. If you care about your teeth and want to avoid the nightmare I went through, stay far away from Patricio Dental Plaza, owned by Drs. Ernest and Lhannie Patricio, with branches in Ayala Feliz Mall, SM City Masinag, and Quezon City. I went to their clinic for a root canal and veneers consultation. The 2 doctors confirmed that I indeed needed a root canal based on my x-ray. I also went in for the veneers with the explicit instruction to Dr. Lhannie that I chose composite veneers instead of porcelain veneers because there was no tooth shaving involved. She assured me there won't be any tooth shaving. For these procedures, I went to the clinic 3 times, and each visit took more than 7 hours. (That's how you know they're unskilled and don't know what they're doing. The root canal retreatment took 45 minutes in the US.) Let me first talk about the root canal done by Dr. Ernest Patricio. The root canal took nearly 2 hours, and I thought everything was okay. The long procedure left me thinking it was done correctly. However, upon my return to the US in February 2024, I experienced excruciating pain. Shockingly, my US dentist revealed that NO ROOT CANAL was performed. An endodontist later confirmed this, saying that Dr. Patricio came close to drilling the canal but gave up, sealing my tooth in bad faith. This deceitful behavior endangered my health and left me financially burdened with the cost of a procedure that never happened. The nightmare continued with my composite veneers, which deteriorated within 3 months, leading to exposed enamel and heightened sensitivity. The discovery that my teeth had indeed been shaved during the botched procedure added insult to injury. Now, I'm left with no choice but to seek porcelain veneers, incurring further expenses due to the clinic's incompetence. I can never get back what I lost (see pics below of before and after). Their dental advices were also wrong. Dr. Lhannie suggested I refrain from flossing with my composite veneers and even recommended using baking soda to clean them, a practice universally frowned upon by dental professionals due to its abrasive nature. They will also try to upsell procedures or devices you don't need. Dr. Lhannie sold me a device to correct my nonexistent TMJ problem, which cost P30,000. My US dentist said I didn't have TMJ. Despite my attempts to address these issues with Patricio Dental Plaza and seek a partial refund (total cost was P450,000) for their negligence, they have chosen not to respond. Your teeth deserve better care than what you'll get there. Save yourself the headache and find a skilled dentist.

    I had my teeth cleaned by Dr. E. Patricio. He is very unhygienic. The sleeve of his doctor's white…read morecoat had a lot of blood splatter. Blood carries germs. The fact that his coat was so close to my mouth put my health at risk. I am never going back to this clinic.

    Children's Dental Center - Bear Hug method with the pediatric dentists

    If you want your child's first dental experience to be a positive one, this is the place to go to…read more They really specialize in working with kids, so you know you're in good hands. Having a good first experience is vital to set the pace for subsequent visits you will have with your kid. What I love is that they have a waiting area where young kids can play with a teeter totter, a play house, some books and toys. At the on-set, kids already feel comfortable about their visit. We met with Dr. Marie who was able to explain everything we need to know prior to seeing my 2-year-old. We did what was called a bear hug - this involves the parent in the experience. The baby sits on the mommy's lap and the dentist sits right in front of you so the kid can lay his/her head down on the dentist's lap. While my child really felt frightened at first, this position made her feel like I was always there with her and that she didn't need to be so scared. For the first meeting, we only did the cleaning and fluoride application. We also had a very long talk with the dentist after so she can go through the dental plan with us including the steps we need to take to ensure continued good dental health and how frequent the visits should be. You could always ask the dentists or the reception area about the costs of the different procedures.
