My experience was not positive. I chose this dentist because of the technology but it was not…read morenecessarily a plus. I found his energy very chaotic and there was never enough time to properly evaluate what I needed. Everytime I was at an appointment it was rushed. I had a filling done and was in pain for months. Everytime something was being "Fixed" it just made things worse and more costly procedures were recommended to me. You are meant to have fillings for years but the doctor can't even totally focus on you while you are there for an hour. This lack of attention caused a lot of problems for me. 8 months later I am still in pain and can't eat properly. I have had to go to another dentist and spend thousands of dollars to attempt to fix all that was done to me. I was not even given the courtesy of having my questions answered. He has never had any fillings done, so the doctor does not even know how it feels to have tooth pain and does not have a good bedside manner. I would ask alot of questions and if they are not answered, choose someone else.

I have had some bad experiances with other Dentists in the past…read more That being said, after my wife talked me into seeing Dr. Patterson, I have a different outlook on going. He and his staff thus far have been completely painless. This alone is something I am not use to. They are also very friendly and did not take a big chunk out of my wallet when I went. I recently had a crown replaced and a filling. The wait time was almost nothing. Dr. Patterson is a military man and is very organized and structured. Not having to wait in the waiting room is also a new experiance for me when going to the Dentist. His Dental Hygienist Candy (I love that she's named Candy) is so nice and friendly. She also understood that I have very sensitive teeth and was just great a doing a job that needed to be done that I just am never going to be fully comfortable with, but she was wonderful. I highly recomend Dr. Patterson and his staff to anyone. They have changed my negative thoughts about Dentistry into positive ones!

I told three different staff members I was not there for anything to do with an implant but just to have a crown put back on. I was moved 5 times to 4 different chairs/rooms.

Many years ago I did that job and it didn't take 9 months to learn it. I had to pay for the exam upon arrival and pay again for cementing on the way out. It was like i was in a Keystone cop movie.

DDS dentures made my last set and did a wonderful job, perfect fit! This was my 4th set of dentures so I knew they didn't fit when they gave them to me, but they said it was just that I wasn't used to having new teeth. Well, I took their word and went home. An hour later my mouth was so sore I had to go back to my old dentures. I called them twice about the dentures not fitting and the only thing they were worried about was how much my insurance was paying them. Now I called to tell them they would have to do something about them and they say my 100 day warranty is up. Please don't get scammed by Affordable Dental & Implants. I have talked to others and they had the same problem so it isn't just me!
