    I've had braces twice in my life, but I wasn't always great about wearing my retainer, so over time…read moremy teeth shifted and little gaps showed back up. Nearing 40, I didn't want to go through braces again. That's when I started looking into composite bonding and found Dr. Monica Crooks. She completely changed my smile. I had my teeth whitened, cavities fixed (including work from a previous dentist), and bonding done to close the gaps and smooth everything out. I'm still shocked when I look in the mirror. It feels like I finally have the smile I've always wanted. I'm super picky, and every tiny detail I asked her to tweak, she did without hesitation. That kind of patience and artistry is rare. And it shows in her work. Her office is something special too. It's Egyptian-themed, full of culture, art, and beautiful details that make it feel less like a dentist's office and more like a gallery. It actually makes the whole visit feel like an experience, not just an appointment. Dr. Crooks is dynamic, artistic, and truly talented. I went in self-conscious about my gaps and came out with a smile I can't stop showing off.

I experience moderate discomfort during routine dental visits, and his team always goes above and beyond to ensure that I'm comfortable throughout my visit. My former dentist would fault me for this: "you dont floss enough or brush thoroughly..etc" was their reason for my consistent discomfort. At this clinic, I experience none of that. You're uncomfortable? Okay we'll numb you- no more pain and leaving in a bad mood after treatment. I am always greeted very kindly by the girls up front and my hygienist. Hearing everyone talk and laugh frequently with Dr. Mercado goes to show that it's a healthy work environment and enjoyable place to work. I really value that component and it positively impacts the energy of the clinic. Thank you all for always taking such good care of me even though I'm high maintenance and extra sensitive

Not only has he completed fillings for me, but I have even gone through him for Invisalign and was finally able to correct my destructive bite. The new office is in a great location and doesn't even feel like a dentists office. The hygienists are amazing and I hope everyone is appreciative of how much care they put into making patients appointments as stress free as possible. I highly recommend this dental office if you're looking for a new provider!

In addition, my spouse needed a periodontal teeth cleaning fall of 2024, but the dental practice had no one at all doing teeth cleaning for months so my spouse had to find another dentist for teeth cleaning and his dental condition got worse and now needs another crown instead of a filling. My spouse is in the early stage of dementia and I had explained that to the office Manager, Deanie many times. In the past, Deanie was always helpful and understood the situation and communicated well with me about appointments and treatment in the past. My spouse has needed an extraction and a crown since mid summer 2024 but didn't have any dental benefits remaining, and no pain, so he chose to wait for 2025 so that insurance coverage of $2,000 would be available. My spouse went to Adams Dental Associates for periodontal cleaning 1-9-2025. Deanie asked me to join my spouse when he was done with the cleaning to discuss a treatment plan for extraction of #16 and crown on #15 and sign release forms. Even though I'm an extremently busy person, I went to Adams Dental Associates Office. While my spouse was getting his teeth cleaned, I received a call from Deanie asking if my spouse had taken 2000 mg of amoxicillin earlier today. This was the 1st I'd heard of this requirement. I said no, he took 500 mg of amoxicillin earlier today for a urinary tract infection. Dealing with this wasted another hour of my time and I have no time to waste. Later Deanie explained the 2000 mg of amoxicillin is requirement by medical profession when the patient had joint surgery recently. So I called my spouse's orthopedic surgeon's office who said the amoxicillin is not needed today since the knee replacement was 5 weeks ago. I informed Deanie and that seemed to be ok. When I went to Adams Dental Associates office to discuss the treatment plan, I was presented with detailed consent forms, 7 pages. The consent forms said: Describe treatment & reason for treatment, yet no reason was identified. The form said "I, patient's name, have discussed the treatment with my dentist and have had the following issues answered to my satisfaction". My spouse had many questions so we circled items and wrote ?s on the items that needed more discussion. When my spouse understood and agreed to the Item, he wrote his initials to indicate approval. But most of the items we had questions. I did not know if my spouse had received the info and forgot, or if the info was never provided. We provided the forms to Deanie and said we had questions. Deanie took us to a treatment room. She told my spouse to sit in the treatment chair and for me to sit in the corner in a chair so we did. Dr. Adams joined us. He said there is a 3rd tooth that needs a crown now. #14. Dr. Adams became irritated that I was not looking at a monitor above my head and told me to get up and look at the monitor. I had never been in that office before and I had no idea there was a monitor above my head. Dr. Adams said he needed another xray and left the room. Deanie returned and indicated all was done. I said we still have questions about items on the consent forms. Deanie said ok. Dr. Adams returned to the treatment room. He asked what are the questions. The 1st item on the form was finances and I know the office handles that, so I did not bring it up with Dr. Adams. The 2nd item was about post operative instructions and need for follow up care. Dr. Adams said the forms should be completed on the day of procedure. I explained that Deanie asked me to come to the office to discuss the treatment plan today. Dr. Adams looked right at me with a very mean stare, and said this is crazy. I said in a very respectful tone, I agree this is crazy because the form is asking randy to agree he's fully informed and he is not. Dr. Adams told the Office Manager, Deanie, she should be able to answer the questions. She said you are the dentist. Then Dr. Adams looked at me with a mean facial expression and said get another dentist. He became more verbally abusive and disrespectful in his communication. All because we wanted to understand the procedures, why they are needed, the risks, alternatives and consequences of not doing the procedures as the forms indicated. I told Dr. Adams that it is very unethical to ask a patient to sign a consent form when the patient nor I do not fully understand the items on the consent form. I felt that Dr. Adams was treating me in a demeaning and disrespectful manner. It appears to me he is refusing to understand my spouse is in early dementia and I'm there to help my spouse and the dental practice so that my spouse can get the care he needs asap and the dental practice has the consent they need. Now we have to find another dentist and start all over.
