My wife and I have used Seaside for about a year. We've both had several cleanings and other, more serious dental work, and both the dentists and the hygienists were friendly and competent. read more

I have been going to Dr.Dobbs for two years and he is very good. However I went to the new doctor Dr. Scribbins she's horrible. I am not new to dental care. I have never been treated so poorly. The replacement of a cap was done and she never told me what she was doing. She and the assistant caused such pain and I am still hurting. I have to finish getting my permanent cap, but I will be looking for a new provider. I even went back to have to temporary cap worked on and it still hurts and now I can't floss!! I am not a piece of meat! I am a human being. They should know that because I do pay the bill. read more

No. Arrived to find office canceled appointment with no notice. Waited months only to arrive and be told they had given my spot to someone else. They did not apologize, or offer to work me in. It was weird. They obviously didn't care at all. With that kind of attitude, I am grateful they never had the chance to touch my teeth! We will never be back. There are many caring dental offices in the area. This isn't one of them. Go anywhere else. read more

TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE. My husband first went there to have a cavity filled in February. One month later, while eating, he experienced sharp pain when chewing and afterwards cold drinks hurt him on the filling. Sometimes fillings aren't perfect so no big deal, right? We called for a checkup and they said it would be a MONTH AND A HALF before they would see him. Keep in mind, he's in pain when eating and drinking. He asked to speak to the office manager over a week ago and no one has called or contacted him. He is still in pain when eating and drinking. If you want a dentist who will follow up, and cares enough to fix their work when you can barely chew food, this is NOT the office. Seaside Lifetime Dentistry, I will be telling everyone about your shocking lack of care, nonexistent empathy, and failure to provide the most basic customer service. Shame on you. read more

Don't bother with this dental office if you need care for your family. They had us wait six months for an appointment to become patients with them (six years ago we had a great experience with them, which is why I returned, but things in this office have changed for the worse.) only to cancel our appointment with two hours' notice after our entire family schedule was rearranged, and my husband's work was made to accommodate the appointment. I spoke with Seaside Lifetime Dentistry twice, once on the 18th on the pictured screenshot, when I told the woman calling we would "definitely be there," and again this morning at 8am just to check I had the time for our appointment correct. This was an appointment for **all four members** of our family to be seen, so I wanted to double check as it is very important to us. A few minutes after I got off the phone with them this morning, a woman from Seaside called me back saying that our appointments had all been canceled. They were unable to contact me additional two times between the first time I spoke with them (and confirmed we would be at our appointment) and this morning, due to their phone system saying my number "was restricted." It has NEVER been restricted. She said THOSE two calls, conveniently, were the actual confirmation calls and that the call that went through to me successfully pictured in the screenshots with this review was just a "reminder call" so my verbal confirmation then did not count as an official confirmation. I told her that their phone system being messed up was not my problem and that as evidenced by her call to me this morning, they obviously had my correct contact information. I also explained that we have been waiting for this appointment for six months and she even confirmed to me that the people that they moved into our spot had only been in our spot for "a few days" because the change to the schedule was only made a few days ago yet, Seaside Lifetime dentistry chose to honor the appointment time with those people who had only had the slot for **a few days** rather than our entire family who had been waiting on these slots for over six months, previously confirmed verbally, followed instructions sent to us in a text message and did not call to change or reschedule anything. She said she would see if the dental hygienist could "work us in," (as if we hadn't had these slots for six months!!) and of course the answer was no. Then I asked her if it would it be another six-month wait before our next appointment, and she said yes that it would be "several months," so I told her to not worry about us that we would take our business elsewhere because this was extremely unprofessional on their part. So we lost a **verbally confirmed** appointment that had been waited for by four people for over half a year because they tried to call me **two times** with their phone system messed up saying my number was restricted when it has **never** been restricted. Again, it seemed to work just fine when they called to cancel the appointment on us with two hours' notice. I have never been treated so unprofessionally by a dental practice in my entire life, and we used to be happy patients at Seaside, but obviously things have changed for worse since. They should be ashamed of themselves if this is the type of customer service they now provide, and they do not deserve mine or your hard earned money. Take your business elsewhere if you want to be treated like a valued customer instead of just another number in their line. read more

Seaside Lifetime Dentistry - The call they made to me where I VERBALLY CONFIRMED my family's appointments - General Dentistry Near Me - Brunswick, Georgia

The dental work was ok, and that's the most important thing. But. The dentist called me "Honey," "Dear," "Darling'" and my favorite--"Sweetie Pie." I'm over 70. Apparently, that means I must be senile. Not only am I not senile, but even if I were, this kind of patronizing attitude is simply inexcusable. Old people are entitled to the same respect you would give to anyone else. I found this treatment demeaning and it was infuriating. Patients deserve to be treated as intelligent adults. Nobody over the age of 5 should be called "Sweetie-pie." read more

The dentist has on two separate visits argued with me about what I can or can not physically feel. I have dental anxiety and if you are looking for a practice that understands your nerves and is willing to accommodate them, I strongly urge you to go somewhere else. On my third and final visit I got up out of the chair and left sobbing. I was there for them to fix the massive gobstopper they put in my mouth in place of a crown. The crown is 3x the size of all my other teeth and incredibly uncomfortable. It feels like a glob of milk dud stuck to my teeth at all times. I couldn't feel when they put it in due to my tongue and mouth being numb. However they could see it (pictured below) and thought to themselves that doesn't look abnormal at all. That or they just simply don't care about the work they produce. When I told the dentist that my crown felt bigger he said that's not true or it wouldn't fit in my mouth and proceeded to very rudely argue with me about how he stands by his work. Only then for him to admit "yeah it is a bit wider than the rest" when he finally looked in my mouth after insisting it was not physically possible. My biggest issue is how they felt that was acceptable to let me leave with that huge hunk in the first place. It has completely changed the alignment of my mouth and teeth. The bottom of it is also smooth and rounded so I have no grip to chew. There were so many other micro aggressions that I experienced while I was there, the dental assistant and the dentist talking badly about me while I'm in the room as if I'm not there. Saying that "she claims" this or that in a very sarcastic tone. It was so insulting and disrespectful to be treated like I'm imagining the pain and discomfort I feel. I was hesitant to go back but could not afford to pay another dentist because even though my insurance covered 80% it still set me back $774 all for it to bother me more than it did before I ever went it. I hoped the first experience was just due to my anxiety but the level of disregard in my following visits showed me I should of trusted my intuition to never go back. I was very open and honest with them about my anxiety. I called before my appointment to make sure it was abundantly known. I had clear discussions with the dentist and the assistant about my anxiety. I made special requests to help with this such as wearing the X-ray vest as a weighted blanket. When I left crying on the last appointment they told my partner they had no idea that I had dental anxiety and that had they known they would have made a note on my account. Despite me calling to tell them prior to my appointment and talking to them in person. This should have been done automatically before seeing how they had to prescribe me Valium for my previous visit. The simple truth is they do not listen to their patient's needs. I added a photo for proof of the size of the tooth in comparison with the rest as well as the alignment of my teeth so you can see the significant impact. The only thing the photo doesn't really capture is the roundness on the inside. read more

I wasted 4 hours of leave from work to keep an appointment I scheduled with these people over a month ago for an aching tooth. I arrived 25 minutes early for my appointment, called in, as per the corona instructions pasted on their door, only to be informed that my appointment had been canceled. They claimed they called me, but on checking my phone's log, this proved to be untrue. If they can't figure out how to make a phone call, or send me a text (the 5 automated reminders about my appointment seemed to have made it through just fine) then maybe a guy really doesn't want them drilling and filling in my mouth. Basic customer service seems to be very illusive for dentists in southern Georgia. They don't seem to give a damn about their patients' time. read more

This office has friendly staff and the doctor is on time and very efficient. I've never had to wait long while waiting for my appointment. My first time in was for an emergency crown fix and I was in and out under 30 min. The front window staff did a real good job getting my insurance info squared away. read more

Perfect dentist to go to for anyone who is anxious or uncomfortable with needles. I ended up being 20 minutes late for my appointment and they still took me in, Dr Dobbs talked me through the whole process so I wouldn't be worried about what was going on, and he works very fast. Best dental office I've been to, all of the staff are very friendly! read more
