Commonwealth Family Dentistry is by far the best dental office around. I came to them two years…read moreago from another practice after being frustrated with costs and quality. The dentists on staff are excellent especially with timid patients. I specifically like my dentist's assistant, Beth! She made my experience all the better. I was incredibly nervous and she kept me calm. I felt my old dentist was solely based on the dollar which made the quality of care poor. Commonwealth Family Dentistry makes patients a priority!

I feel I was assaulted with a dental drill by the tech at this dentist office who likes to talk…read moreabout her Lexi's car . When the dentist allowed her to help put a cap on my uncovered tooth that had been just received a root canal, she already knew WITHOUT the cap the tooth was very sensitive to pain because the dentist already tested it after I came to the appointment just to see the sensitivity. When She proceeded to go into my mouth I'm wondering what she doing (he already tested it, and she knows it's painful . So, (without the cap to put on my tooth) she used the drill and said "I want you to see something " she took the drill and hit my naked tooth with that instrument the dentist did and then said "(you can get somebody else if you want)." She hit that uncovered tooth with the drill so fast I almost jumped out the seat it hurt so bad. I read in these reviews where the Doctor or hygienist used anesthetic on someone's gums while scaling back their teeth? I was not ever offered pain relief for scaling. I was told "all the patients took the pressure and pain!". They tried to do my scaling by digging with a sharp instrument in my gums until I screamed in pain. The hygienist thought it was a joke because I was so upset . They did not numb me nor warn me about the pain of having to go into my gums with a sharp instrument. I believe I was assaulted with dental instruments and then made a joke of . I am afraid to go back there after those experiences to tell them my dentures (they made) hurt so bad and look so bad I can't wear them almost not at all. Food gets stuck in the tooth that had the root canal because it's indented and not smooth. They kept trying to get $100.00 out of me at this dentist office. Kept saying you owe us $100.00 but never told me why. I never understood anyway because My dental care was totally insured . So, they finally backed off asking me. But, I believe I was being billed for something I didn't get. When they figured they couldn't just take my money without explanations they just said forget about it. When has a business ever said forget about $100.00?

One particular visit the water attachment wasn't working properly so she used the dental tools from my try to fix it because they couldn't find pliers. She then attempted to use them on me but I quickly stopped her and reminded her what she just used them for! Dr. Varkey has become rough and rude if you question him at all. His work has actually worsened the condition of my teeth and mental health. At one visit he was resting his body weight on my face, I stayed quiet but eventually started to tear up. He become super frustrated saying " you're always here and when you come you're a problem! " The tears really began to flow as he partially finished the work. I'm so thankful to the lead assistant for hugging me up and trying to make it better. Unfortunately I still have to see him again to finish up work (uncapped tooth left open for 3 months) and hopefully not leave out with ANOTHER ROOT CANAL. Those are given out more than the toys in the treasure box. I'm down to 19 teeth since United Smiles and requested dental partials now that I can't chew many solid foods. That was a year and a half ago and the response everytime is I'll look into it. Wish me luck on the upcoming appointment, hopefully they'll be playing Brain Adams and not that "Mexican Music" to uplift his spirits. HIS WORDS NOT MINE.
