First time visit last month for teeth cleaning and review. I knew I had no teeth issues since my…read morelast dentist out of state gave me a clean bill of teeth/health. Yet once Dr. Benderson examined me, he claimed I had several teeth that needed immediate attention. From refills to a possible root-canal. I mentioned my last dentist said my teeth were fine and that I didn't have any current mouth or tooth pain. Yet Dr. Benderson acted like my teeth were neglected, and several would have to be worked on in the near future. I then said thanks, but no thanks, and went to another dentist in the Annapolis area. Only to find out all my teeth were fine and not one had a cavity.

He was very thorough, communicated well, and was very conservative with treatment. Because he chose to monitor to wait to see how things cleared up with minimal intervention, I was able to avoid some bigger interventions, which I really appreciated.

I was referred to Chesapeake Periodontics and had an exceptional experience for 7 years until I had…read morea cleaning with the hygienist Christina. Dr. Gartner is the best dentist I've ever seen; and the receptionists, dental assistants, and the other hygienist, Rose, were always terrific. One day I had a cleaning scheduled for 8:00 AM and Christina was the hygienist. Before I was in the chair she asks why I'm seeing her today. I said to get a cleaning. Then she presses me why I didn't schedule an appointment with Rose. I have no idea where she's coming from or asking me how I ended up with her. This was the day and time that was scheduled, what more can I say. When scheduling a cleaning, I've never been asked or given a second thought about who the hygienist would be. I thought it would be whoever is working the day of the appointment. It really felt like she was pissed off and she made the atmosphere weird and uncomfortable. During the cleaning she started to gag me and I raised my hand to signal that I needed a break and she angrily asked me if I have a gag reflex. I said yes (I mean who doesn't??), and then she smacks me across my shoulder and says "why didn't you tell me before we began". This experience turned me off to Chesapeake Periodontics. I've never been treated with such unprofessionalism and disrespect and will not return.

My elderly mother recently had a consult with Dr. Garden, in preparation for her getting dentures…read more The doctor explained to her what the process would be like and was very patient and answered all of our questions because my mother was a little anxious about the process. He explained that there were certain things she had to do before we could move forward and schedule the extractions. The front desk staff, Shannon specifically, was also phenomenal. From the moment I called to place the appointment and asked her many questions, to when we arrived, and she helped get us checked in and settled, she was great. Very friendly and personable, but also very knowledgeable and professional. This dentist is obviously very popular based on the amount of people that were there. However, even though he was running behind, the staff kept us informed and were still very efficient. But despite that, he did not rush us, and he answered all of our questions. If you need to have any teeth extracted, and you find him on your own or get a referral, I would not hesitate to reach out because it was a very positive experience, and we definitely feel more comfortable about returning when my mother is ready to have her teeth extracted.

I was referred by my dentist and had to wait 6 weeks for an appointment. In the meantime, I…read morerepeatedly called every week to try to get an earlier slot, but it was not possible. On the day of my appointment, I was scheduled for 12:00, but I was kept waiting without any explanation or update until 12:45. There was no apology or acknowledgment of the delay. The examination itself felt very rushed. The doctor briefly looked at my upper right tooth using a tongue depressor and spent about 5 minutes discussing possible extractions. Normally, a dental mirror is used for proper examination of teeth, so the lack of a proper instrument was concerning. I also requested an evaluation of tooth #13 (upper left), and I was told it would be included in the report. The entire visit lasted about 10 minutes. They told me that the treatment plan would be sent later that same day.They told me that the treatment plan would be sent later that same day. Afterwards, I had to follow up multiple times over 5 days to receive the treatment plan. When it was finally sent, even the tooth numbers were incorrect. In particular, for tooth #13, the doctor had clearly stated in person that the condition was very poor, not salvageable, and required extraction. However, in the report this was reduced to a mild statement such as: "the patient reports intermittent symptoms of discomfort associated with tooth #13." Overall, the experience was rushed, poorly documented, and disappointing due to a lack of attention to detail and communication.
