Not as biological or holistic as they portray. My experience here felt inconsistent, dismissive,…read moreand at times questionable. I've been a patient for about a year. I originally came here after another dentist told me I had cavities and pushed drilling, which I wasn't comfortable with. At my first visit, after X-rays and a full exam, I was told I had zero cavities. Fast forward to my most recent visit after new X-rays, I was suddenly told I now have multiple cavities, including one in the exact same spot the previous dentist had identified the same one this office previously said was not a cavity. That's not a small oversight. When I said I wanted to try addressing things naturally, the response felt dismissive. The dentist literally turned her head away from me so I couldn't see her face. Instead of a conversation, I got a treatment plan with thousands of dollars in fillings and no real discussion of alternatives. For a practice that calls itself "healing," there was no guidance on remineralization, no discussion of internal or lifestyle factors, Minimal education, despite recommending nano hydroxyapatite products. I was given things like MI paste with no idea what it really was or how to use it. Instructions were vague. It's very surprising that this is a dental school. I have no idea what the source of this product is. As someone who always reads labels, the source of a product is important to me. A lot of hydroxyapatite is synthetic. This dentistry calling itself "healing" felt like branding, not philosophy. Also, some of the interactions with staff were concerning. When I paying for $300+ whitening trays the receptionist told me I would need to repurchase whitening trays again soon because of "germs," which honestly sounded like a sales tactic, not science. We're constantly exposed to bacteria that explanation didn't make sense and came off as trying to upsell. I was also asked what I do for a living during payment, which felt unnecessary and uncomfortable especially when being presented with a large treatment plan. I was told they have "60,000 clients," which didn't match what I observed at the practice, and added to the overall feeling that things weren't being presented transparently. On top of that, offering Botox and fillers while branding as "holistic" feels contradictory to what many patients expect when choosing a biological dentist. I came here looking for a provider who would partner with me and respect a more natural, conservative approach. Instead, I left feeling like I was being funneled into the same outcome I was trying to avoid just under a different label. If you're expecting true "healing dentistry" in the sense of collaboration, education, and respect for natural approaches, that was not my experience.

It customary for a dentist to complete the visit immediately after the hygienist is finished to perform an oral examination, discuss the results and possible next steps. That's not the way they do it. After, the hygienist completed her work, the receptionist walked an told me that there seems to be no dentist around and I would have to pay for this visit, come back for the exam part and pay for another office visit. The same scheduling 'oops' occurred when two of my immediate relatives went. What's happening? By separating the two operations, they are maximizing their revenue opportunity at your cost...in terms of your time and your money.

If you or a loved one is fearful of taking care of your teeth because of bad experiences in the past, then this is the place for you! My teeth have always been in bad shape, and I spent most of my adult life fearing dentists after two very bad root canal procedures while I was in the military. To say that I avoided caring for my teeth would be an understatement But when my teeth started falling out at the age of 46, I knew that I needed to step up. Radiant Smiles was originally Patterson Family Dentistry and when Dr. Patterson retired some years ago, Dr. Sharan and Dr. Jason took over the practice.

They are really artists of their craft and take great pride in the care of their patients.

When we called the office number listed to confirm that she was a staff dentist there they told me she was. When I got to the appointment the front office lady seemed confused as if she didn't know who Olga was until I showed her the listing on the website. Then she told me that Olga was a traveling dentist but she did not work in this office. Looks like they lie about her working here over the phone to get us down here then give us the "we don't know what you are talking about" energy once you show up for the appointment looking for the reputable dentist we were told worked here. I will be reporting this to yelp and whoever pays their cap as well. A waste of time to go there if the dentist I wanted service from is not a dentist on staff. You shouldn't lie to your customers to get them to visit so that you get more cap. I used to work for The Guardian and Managed Dental Care so I will see that this goes up the chain.

I was disappointed by the sudden change in policy. When I first started my laser hair removal…read moretreatments about 30 days ago, I was told there were only a handful of specific antibiotics that couldn't be taken during treatment because of photosensitivity risks. I understood that and had no issue with it. Recently, my doctor prescribed me an antibiotic that is considered safe to take while receiving laser hair removal. Out of courtesy, I let the clinic know before my appointment. That's when I was told their policy had changed and they now don't allow any antibiotics, regardless of the medication or whether it's considered safe. I understand that businesses can update their policies, but it's frustrating to have the rules change after I've already started my treatment plan. If a policy is going to change that significantly, I think existing clients should be informed ahead of time. Because of the new policy, I wasn't able to keep my appointment, even though the medication I was prescribed wasn't originally on the list of restricted antibiotics.

We moved to Scottsdale about six or seven years ago. My wife did a ton of research before picking a…read moredentist and she chose S&L with Dr. David Ngo. I went with a different place at first because it was closer to where we were living. Well, that turned out to be a mistake. I ended up having a bad experience there and finally switched to S&L. Dr. Ngo and his team fixed everything the other dentist had messed up. Right away I knew my wife had been right all along. I've been going to S&L for four years now and they really are the best dental office I've ever been to. Dr. Ngo has removed all my old metal fillings and replaced them with modern ones, plus he's done a couple of crowns for me. Everything looks and feels great. My wife has also been extremely happy with all the work he's done for her too. I'm almost 55 and I've seen a bunch of top-rated, highly recommended dentists over the years, both here in the US and a couple in Mexico. Nothing else comes close. One thing I have to mention is how good Dr. Ngo is with people who hate dental visits or get nervous about pain. His work is excellent, but it's the way he takes care of you that makes the biggest difference. For example, the way he does Novocaine shots is unbelievable. You barely feel it at all. Every dentist out there should learn his technique. With all that said, I do think the front office experience could be better. If the customer service up front matched Dr. David's clearly caring vibe, it would be 100% perfect. If you're looking for a truly professional dentist who gives five-star care and service, this is the place. Dr. David Ngo at S&L is the only one I would recommend without any hesitation.

I chose this dentist because of all the amazing reviews, and so I thought I'd detail my experience…read morebecause it wasn't as perfect as the reviews make it seem. They seem very knowledgable and seem to know what they're doing when it comes to dentistry, but my concerns are more in the administration side of things. I changed jobs earlier this year and got new insurance with a common major insurance provider, and I needed to get a procedure done. I asked them what the procedure would cost and they gave me a quote, which was already expensive, and I paid that at the time of service. However, when I came in for a routine cleaning 6 months later, they said the insurance "didn't pay as much as they thought" and stuck me with MORE THAN DOUBLE their original quote. I looked into the insurance claim and called the insurance company myself, and the insurance company paid exactly what was according to their billing schedule. There were no surprises. I think the office knew (or should have known, because they're the professionals and this is what they do) that this would happen, and they dishonestly gave me a lower quote, did the service, and then stuck me with the even more expensive bill (but to their credit, they did give me a lower price than what they billed to insurance, but it was still VERY expensive that I was not prepared for). Additionally, I distinctly recall the procedure treated four teeth, but then on the bill and insurance claim, they say they treated six. Unfortunately, I don't really know how to argue this, especially because it happened so long ago. I suspect they didn't contact me about this issue earlier for this exact reason. Again, dishonest. Another concern with this dentist is that it's unprofessional that they use Zelle to get around credit/debit card transaction fees. Every merchant has to deal with card transaction fees, they shouldn't be up-charging that cost and they shouldn't be using Zelle, which is supposed to just be a peer-to-peer payment network. Lastly, as much as I love dogs, I don't think it's hygienic that they keep a dog in their office. In all, I started off loving this dentist, and very disappointed that they turned out to be this unprofessional and dishonest. I'm sad I'll have to go elsewhere from now on.
