Very rude and unprofessional front office staff, enough to make me leave and never be seen by a…read moredentist here. I called in mid-May and scheduled an appointment for June 20th at 10:20AM. They had texted me to confirm the date and time of 6/20 at 10:20AM twice to which I responded confirming. As far as I was concerned this was my appointment time. The day of my appointment I was getting ready to leave when they called to ask if I was still coming for my appointment at 10AM.. to which I told them I thought it was at 10:20AM. She had told me that no, my appointment was at 10AM and she would have to check with the hygienist if they could still see me. During this time I double checked the written communication which did, in fact, say 10:20AM. When she came back on she said they could still see me to which I told her, well yes, seeing as my appointment is at 10:20AM and was confirmed to be so twice by your text confirmation system. She continue to argue that my appointment was for 10AM. I show up at the office and they ask me to come back to fill out paperwork (that I had already done the night before when their system sent it to me) and I had told her that they must have messed up because my appointment was at 10:20AM and proceeded to try to show her the texts. She did not want to see the texts and argued with me that my appointment was for 10AM and they had tried to call me the day before to confirm and let me know that they had to bump me up in the schedule. They had only called me ONCE and never said anything about changing my appointment time in the voicemail. I never once received an apology and was only met with snarky attitude so I told them to cancel my appointment and left. The level of unprofessionalism and disrespect to a FIRST TIME patient was very distasteful and I would never recommend them based on that alone. My advice to them is to get organized and improve upon their bedside manner with patients. Two stars only because I never saw a dentist and cannot speak to their expertise or skill.

My experience at champagne smiles was basically a nightmare. I was looking for a new dentist and…read morecame there for a check up. That seem to go really well except I was told I had a cavity that I should have filled. So I made a follow up appointment. When I returned, everything seemed fine at first. He started working on the cavity as normal, then all of a sudden, he told me that I needed a root canal. This was going to cost a lot more money, and he started shoving papers in front of me to sign. Now I'm basically stuck at this point, he and technicians really pressured me into signing some paperwork so he could perform a root canal which I honestly think was completely unnecessary. It was probably the worst dental experience of my entire life. I have never had a root canal before, nor have I ever had one since. Now there's a dead tooth in my mouth, which has been a source of misery for me ever since that day. I would not trust this guy to give you an honest evaluation, and highly suspect that he basically cons people into having expensive and completely unnecessary dental work. I kick myself for not taking him to court. I only hope this review saves some other people from having unnecessary dental procedures performed by this swindler.

Earlier this year, I saw Jennifer O., a dental hygienist who joins the practice when an additional professional is needed for preventive care and patient education. She is professional and friendly, and she understands patients who carry a difficult dental history. I am one of those patients. Many years ago, I was a 21-year-old college student, married to a 24-year-old Mercedes-Benz mechanic, and pregnant with our first child. At the start of our marital life, our dental insurance was limited. During my pregnancy, my back molars began to ache, and the pain became severe. We lived far from my home state, so we went to a local dentist. He took X-rays, said he saw no problem, and told me that because I was pregnant, extraction was the only treatment he would offer. No other option was given to me. One month later I was back in his chair with the same pain, and he gave me the same answer: pull another molar. Looking back, I believe that dentist did what was best for his practice, not what was best for me. That experience left me traumatized and fearful of dentists for a long time. After a lot of trial and error, I was fortunate to find Dr. Zaidi and his staff. In spring, Jennifer took the time to explain my care, showed me exactly where I needed better flossing, and even recommended a mouthwash that works far better than the brands that get all the commercial airtime. For someone who once felt powerless in a dental chair, being taught and included made all the difference. This fall, my hygienist was Kasia. She helped me address staining from my frequent use of cinnamon. I never knew that a spice I love so much could dull the look of my enamel over time, so I may be switching to cardamom, because I love the look of naturally white teeth. Kasia made sure any sensitive areas were cared for before and during my cleaning, and afterward she invited me to look over my teeth in case anything still needed attention. That small gesture told me my comfort mattered. My evaluation was performed by Dr. Bryan Alban, a talented new dentist to the practice. He reviewed my file and X-rays, recognized the steps I am taking to get my smile back, and confirmed that the plan Drs. Zaidi and Reff began for my molar implants. He agreed the steps we're currently taking are the best solution. That kind of consistency builds trust. If you are carrying fear from a past experience, or you have been hiding your smile, please give Shore Dental Arts a try. This team treats patients like people, not numbers. You will feel safe and understood by everyone on staff, and you will see the difference not only in your smile but in your overall health. That kind of care is rare in healthcare, and it is one of the core tenets of this practice. They want you to love your smile and to leave with everything you need to know to keep it healthy.

They were great until they weren't. I was happy with the office, the staff, and every doctor had a…read moregood down to earth demeanor. When I decided to have a tooth extracted in the upper back area of my mouth; they presented me with a multi step treatment plan (many thousands of dollars) at which point I communicated that I had no intent to get implants etc because the gap would not be visible. Come surgery day, my surgeon went ahead and did a bone graft anyway. At the end of my follow up appointment a couple weeks later, the office manager pulled me aside and demanded over $800 additional for the bone graft. I communicated that I did not agree to that, had communicated my intentions earlier, and had only scheduled the appointment for the extraction. She quickly offered me a discount on the next step of the process (which hints to me that she knew they over reached) and I instead stated I should be discounted for the bone graft that I didn't ask for. She didn't budge, so I just paid up and found a new dentist immediately. Going to the dentist is stressful enough, the office shouldn't cause their patients undue financial strain on top of it. I was up front that I wanted extraction only and they performed extra work anyway. You can shake me down for the $800 since it's advisable to get a bone graft anyway, but it should be at a time of my choosing, not yours. If SDA reads this - a little communication and not making assumptions goes a long way!
