I was seen at Lakland Smile Experts on March 20, 2015 for an examination of my upper right teeth…read moreand gums. My gums were extremely red and my face was swollen. The dentist took xrays and did a brief examination. I was told the pain and swelling was due to periodontal disease and prescribed a treatment plan for a $1440 deep cleaning. I went to another dentist for a second option. They immediately discovered my tooth was completely cracked in half and the infection was the result from the split tooth. The tooth could not be saved and was extracted. Since then the infection has subsided and there is no need for a deep cleaning. Had the dentist done a more thorough exam they would have easily seen the crack in the tooth and would have saved me from enduring another week of extreme pain. I would recommend getting a second opinion before having any service done at this dental office. If I didnt I would be out $1440 and a tooth. I gave them an additional star because they did refund my payment for the office visit.

I was told they "work with" my Cigna insurance, which gave the impression my costs would be reasonable. However, this was not clearly explained, and my claim was processed as out-of-network, leaving me with a much higher bill than expected. I paid upfront based on that understanding. Insurance still paid the office, but I was not reimbursed in a way that reflected what I was led to believe, and no further adjustments were made. I came in needing a crown ASAP and trusted I was choosing the right place, but financially, this was the wrong decision. This kind of lack of transparency is exactly why patients avoid care and lose trust in the system--and why burnout in dentistry keeps getting worse. Expensive lesson--would not return.
