I'm extremely disappointed in this practice. My daughter received her orthodontic work here, and…read morewhile the process was initially smooth, our recent experience has been nothing short of alarming and frustrating. In September 2023, my daughter had a permanent wire retainer placed on both her top and bottom teeth. However, last Wednesday, while eating lunch, the permanent retainer came off in one piece, and she accidentally swallowed the estimated 1.5-inch wire. Panicked, I immediately called the office to ask if they had ever encountered this situation before. The woman who answered the phone said no--which was not at all reassuring--and put me on hold to consult with the doctors. Their advice was to visit the emergency department for an X-ray. What followed was a stressful and exhausting ordeal: three long nights and four days at Lurie Children's Hospital in Chicago as we monitored the wire's movement to ensure it passed safely. Thankfully, the wire eventually moved to a safe zone, and we were able to take her home. What's most shocking and disappointing is that throughout this entire ordeal, no one from Forest Ortho called to check on her or follow up in any way. To add insult to injury, my 16-year-old--still determined to maintain straight teeth--went back this Wednesday to replace the retainer. However, they wanted to charge us $350 for the replacement wire! For something that was supposed to last years, having it come out in less than three is unacceptable and suggests poor placement. I've spoken with multiple people who agree that this situation was handled poorly and could have been avoided. I expected far more from Forest Ortho, both in terms of the quality of care and their responsiveness to a serious issue like this.

We love Forest Orthodontics and Pediatric Dentistry. Two of our three kids have had braces there…read moreand are seen for dental as well. The staff is always friendly. We are easily able to move appointments around without a penalty. They understand how crazy schedules can be. I would highly recommend Forest.

After going through five crown shaves, two dentists, and finally being told I needed a root…read morecanal... my heart just wasn't at peace . I had a gut feeling something was off, so I decided to trust it--and that decision led me straight to Dr. Showers . The moment I walked in, I felt calm. The staff was so kind and welcoming and the energy in the office just felt different... peaceful, honest, safe. Dr. Showers was everything I didn't know I needed--wise, clear, and genuinely caring. His presence alone felt like a blessing . Instead of jumping into treatment, he walked me through all my options with compassion and knowledge. He even explained the possibility of going the natural route. That moment of honesty gave me clarity and peace of mind ‍. I didn't need the root canal. I saved so much money but more importantly, I felt seen and respected as a patient and a person. That's rare. That's priceless . I've already recommended this place to friends because when something feels this right, you want to share it with the people you care about . Thank you, Dr. Showers, for living up to your name and showering me in blessings And thank you to the entire staff for making me feel at home

MY HEROS! I've lived in Los Angeles for nearly 20 years and have always had bad luck with dentist…read more Every new dentist visit was met with laughter, finger pointing, and bringing colleagues in to show them what they're seeing in my mouth . They would tell me that the Maryland Bridge is outdated. Nobody uses that technology anymore, everybody uses implants now . The west coast is ALL about implants. They'll try to tap into your insecurities to persuade you into changing your mind. It's truly surprising how relentless they are. My bridge came out and no one would offer a solution to what I wanted. It was ALL about what they wanted and how they felt about it. It doesn't matter if I go to Beverly Hills, Encino, Venice, the valley, 5 star ratings and reviews, THEY ALL SUCK! Almost $1000 later, a tore up mouth from the new "stay plate" (that didn't stay in my mouth) made by another new dentist, feeling discourage, upset, and mad over every LA dentists pushing implants that would cost me 10k. I got on a plane from LAX and came here to finally get my teeth fixed by professionals!! I can't thank Dr. Michelle Singapori enough for fixing my HUGE problem! I was out of my network for health insurance but they made it really affordable for me. I paid less out of pocket at Dr Singapori office to fix me, then being in network in LA and paying to see new dentists to help me fix my problem. If I was my insurance I would pay them. Cheaper than seeing every single shady dentist in LA. Thank you Dr Singapori!

After being a long-time patient, my son was refused emergency treatment on Saturday by Dr. Erica,…read morethe on-call dentist. Despite my explaining that my son was in significant pain and that this was an emergency, I was told that she and her team wanted to go home. We needed immediate help, and I am beyond disappointed

Considering the struggle it is to brush my 2 1/2 year old's teeth on a daily basis (elmo* helps us…read moreout a bit) I was dreading our first visit to the dentist. I asked around for the "kidsnips of dentists" thinking that someone who specializes in children would be our best bet (and have lots of toys in the waiting room). After a few weeks of reading about the Berenstain Bears & Dora's adventures at the dentist we visited the highly recommended (by many friends) Dr Resnick. My little one was psyched..mostly for the toy in the treasure chest that I mentioned she'd get after she behaved (fingers crossed) at the dentist. As I hoped the waiting room was filled with toys. The dental hygienist kept coming out for other kids and everytime my daughter would yell "I'm ready now!" And then finally (10 minutes can seem like 10 hours when waiting with a toddler) it was our turn! The dental hygienist went over how to properly care for our toddler's teeth and I even learned a few things (like not to give her milk anymore before bedtime..oops). Dr. Resnick stopped in just to say hi and meet my daughter on his way to another patient...and promised to be back soon. When he returned my daughter sat on my lap in the chair and opened her mouth wide while he "painted her teeth" with a strawberry flavored fluoride, declared her cavity free (phew!) and urged me to get rid of the pacifier at night soon (another oops). He'd be happy to know that the binky fairy did happen to visit last night! My little one behaved perfectly and when it was all done she gave the dental hygienist a huge smile and said "NOW can i have my toy?" She picked out a tiny little car from the treasure chest and added it to her goody bag filled with a kids toothbrush and toothpaste. She walked out all smiles declaring that she can't wait to go back to the dentist. And she'll get the opportunity to do so in just 6 more months! *http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wxMrtK-kYnE

It's unfortunate that I have to leave a disappointing review for this practice. I had a good…read moreinitial experience with Dr Ballis. He is generally very careful and gentle during any procedure. My reason for the one star is for their deceptive and apparent unnecessary add ons to procedures. I was told repeatedly that I had two crowns that needed to be changed. When I called to confirm my appointment, I was told that I was having an additional crown done at an additional $590 out of pocket cost to me. When I confronted Dr Ballis, I was told that maybe because of COVID masking, that I misunderstood. This is deceptive and a grab at additional costs at the expense of the insurance company and patients. Make sure you get everything in writing when you go to this practice. If you don't, you will find additional procedures and costs added to your file.

When we moved to the NorthShore, we were shocked to discover no one takes dental insurance. Say…read morewhat? So we were paying out of pocket for everything. It was getting ridiculous. Then I find Dr. Ballis and decide to use myself as the test subject for my family. I called to make an appointment. I got voice mail but they called me back. Tina, the receptionist, is a no nonsense person, which works great for me. I don't need someone taking up my time smiling sunshine up my butt. She laid out exactly what I needed to do to get my files transferred electronically. It was so easy it was surprising. Dr. Ballis was friendly, easy to talk to and talked to me about my gums, which were inflamed. I had no cavities (I'm a girl who flosses, thank you!) and he said stress can sometimes make your gums inflamed. Huh. Who knew! I decided to transfer the entire family over to his practice, including my then 5yo and 3yo. I was so worried about going from a kid-based dentist to a grown up dentist. I shouldn't have even wasted a minute worrying. Tina scheduled them both at the same time. We arrived and off they went without even a thought. They did wonderfully (a completely surprise to me) and haven't had a problem going back. Yeah Laurie, the technician, and Dr. Ballis! The office looks unassuming from outside. But when you enter there is a grand staircase and lovely decor that greets you. This building hosts other offices as well. Dr. Ballis' office is soothing, with calming classical music playing in the background. (Admit it. Your dentist plays old 60s or 70s stuff. Right?) My husband has made the switch and we all have been very happy with the services Dr. Ballis does. I don't have any complaints and now I just need to get my husband to make his appointment for the Zoom teeth whitening. Can't wait to see that glistening smile.
