Do not go to Dr Meriana S Martin DMD. She worked a Beachy Dental in Pawleys Island and promised to…read morefix my husband's broken implants which cost $30,000 but ghosted us. Dr Martin sat down in a chair, looked me in right in the eyes and promised me that she would repair my husband's broken dental implant as they were honoring all previous dental work since Beachy Dental bought the practice. She said she was an ethical person (yeah, right) and would personally treat my husband. After repeated unanswered answering service messages and visits to a closed office, I think she was very surprised that I had just showed up at the office and caught her there one day. She told me she just needed to call the manufacturer that made the teeth and start the process for getting the new teeth. I said no problem, I would wait there in the office while she called. She said not to worry she was going to lunch and would call them that afternoon and call me back. I now know that was just a ploy to get me out of the office and not have to deal with me. Well of course she never called back that afternoon. I repeatedly left messages with her answering service and notes on the office door. Well about 6 months she finally called and said the warranty on my husband's teeth was void now bc of missed appointments and there was nothing she could do for him. Case closed. Wait what? You never scheduled an appointment lady! I asked for his dental records and the name of the manufacturer of the teeth and she refused. Now the both practices (Pawleys Island and Mount Pleasant offices) are closed and we don't have his dental records and no way to contact the manufacturer ourselves. What a scammer! I believe in Karma. People like that will get what they deserve in the end.

I am writing to express my deep dissatisfaction with the care my 17-year-old son received during…read morehis recent wisdom teeth removal at your office. The overall experience--from the pre-procedure communication to the post-visit interactions--was unacceptable. First and foremost, I was extremely upset to that Dr. Covington told my son he could die from anesthesia. This is an inappropriate and alarming statement to make directly to a minor without first discussing it with a parent or guardian. Conversations regarding potential life-threatening risks should be handled with sensitivity and communicated directly to the parent. We were presented with only two options for the procedure: anesthesia or nitrous oxide, both of which we paid for out of pocket. At no point were we advised that local numbing was a viable option. Furthermore, my son felt everything during the procedure despite receiving nitrous oxide--something we were not adequately prepared for. Following the procedure, I left three voicemails requesting a letter of medical necessity. When I finally received a call back, the billing representative was rude and unprofessional. She questioned why I was requesting the letter since insurance had covered the procedure. This line of questioning is not appropriate; patients should not be interrogated when requesting documentation related to their care. Due to these issues, I will not be recommending your office to anyone, and I am incredibly disappointed in the lack of professionalism and compassion shown throughout this experience.

They put him on antibiotics and filled his cavities. I was so impressed, as I had not used them in the past, but they took care of my son like he was a patient all his life. Since that time, my son told me that he was very impressed with the dentist and how at ease he felt in his care. I think it was Dr. Cleary. Well my son went on and on about how much he liked the dentist. I felt great for taking him there. Recently, my husband began to have dental pain. He was anxious about going and what kind of care he would receive. I suggested we stop by the office and talk to them. The lovely receptionist said, "we have an opening at 3 PM today", and we took it. She then handed my husband forms to fill out, so he would be ready upon his return. My husband was leery about trying this dentist, as he never needed medical care here. I said, "You still have time to cancel if you wish". He didn't, and went to the appointment. He saw Dr. Goldberg, and when he came out, he was so impressed with the dentist and the care he was provided, he went on and on about it. I have not yet been to this office, but have taken my family members and paid the bills. Their prices are reasonable for their services provided. My family has been very happy with their treatments and are willing to go to Glenn's Bay Dentists without squalking any more.

Unfortunately, the billing office completely undermines that experience. After a routine visit on March 19, I received a bill right before leaving for a family vacation (April 3-17). When I returned, my entire family came down with COVID, which delayed me from going through my mail. As soon as I reviewed it, I immediately called and paid the balance on May 1. Despite that, I received a letter from the billing office claiming no payment had been made and stating I would now be required to pay in full at the time of service. The tone was unnecessarily harsh and accusatory, especially given my consistent history of paying my balances over the past three years. Including a policy as if I were unaware or negligent felt condescending and completely disregarded the reality that sometimes life happens. There was no attempt at understanding--just a blanket, impersonal response. It's unfortunate because the quality of care from the doctor is not reflected in how patients are treated on the administrative side. In the end, the billing office's approach was enough for me to take my care elsewhere. If you choose to go here, be aware: the medical care may be great, but the billing experience can leave a very different impression.

After reading multiple poor reviews on google and even seeing this office is likely scamming people…read moreI'd like to share my experience with Inlet Smiles here to the users of Yelp. The front desk staff is very unprofessional in particular Crystal. I walked in and received a can I help you this morning no warm greeting or hello. I have been a patient of this office for 20 plus years and Crystal pretended to have no clue why I walked into the dentist office this morning at my scheduled appointment time. After spending 15 mins on the phone with Crystal the previous day and being a patient of the office she has worked at for I'm the majority of my life you'd think she'd had more grace and skill when it comes to customer service. Maybe this office should prioritize interactions with patients but they may be out of practice as I never see folks in the waiting room. Also I've never seen a dentist that wasn't Dr Miller (owner) stay at this office for an extended period of employment. The dental hygienist became offended and borderline hostile after asking her to look into my chart to see what we have been doing previously for my care plan. While cleaning my teeth she picked my lip with her tool, I understand that accidents happen but this is why patient handling is important and at the bare minimum an apology for the accident would have been appreciated. Though an aplogy was never spoken. She then informed me we are not doing fluoride today because my insurance does not cover it. There was no offer to receive fluoride which they recommend every visit and can add on to service. I had to request fluoride and then was asked again before I received it. The only nice person in the office is the woman that handled billing at the end of my visit she was professional and kind. I've never had a more unpleasant experience at the dentist and from other reviews of The Smile Center it seems I'm not the only one. God forbid you have something to say that Dr Miller does not agree with for example I was dropped as a patient after writing a review sharing my experience at this office. Luckily I live in the lowcountry where there is no shortage of dentistry options. I recommend Murrells Inlet Dentistry or any other dentist office than Inlet Smiles in Murrells Inlet. Thanks Dr Miller!

I'm just loving these updates! I think the Murrells Inlet Dentistry is not a regular Dentists…read moreoffice but rather it is full of MAGIC! A Magic computer, A Magic wand for X-Rays. MAGIC glasses for bright lights and of course the Magic chair. People go there sometimes with an issue and when they go to walk out the problem is gone. MAGIC! I say. My issue happened the other day. With this healthy choices diet I'm on ... I switched from cookies to apples. One big bite of my apple and I noticed most of my eye tooth stayed in the apple. The tooth next to it broke in half. Just sharp edges and a gap. I did notice pain by my sinuses to the left of my nose and my cheek bone. When I blew my nose my tooth hurt then. I Was in desperate need of a Great Magician! So I called "my" Dr Andrea's office. She is the best. I was able to get in the next day. I arrived to smiles and warm welcomes. I always feel like I am walking into my friend's home. I feel loved. The staff is always fabulous. I was not sitting long in the lobby when I was called to go to the Magic Chair. I've been there so often the chair has molded itself to my body. After the Magic wand was used for X-rays and my Head slightly back with my legs gentle raised I was ready for the Magician to show herself. In walks Dr Andrea. I'm smiling already. I explain my issue and she tells me a doughnut would never break my tooth. We both laughed. After review of the pictures of my teeth( yes I did smile) it was decided that tooth needed to be pulled. Also the one next to it. Since my tooth pain was by my nose and sinuses I suggested we take a short cut and pull the tooth out through my nose. Dr Andrea said she could do that but needed more equipment and time. We chose the regular route for the extraction. I have different names for the Doctor depending on my need that day. Dr. Clean-em. Dr. Numb-em Dr. Drill-em. Dr. Fill-em Dr. Cap-em And Dr. Pull-em. Today Is DrPull-em. Oh yes they have Magic Medicine there too that numbs half your face. I would love to take that medicine for my knee pain too but it wears off too soon. When my mouth and face felt numb, I closed my eyes and opened my mouth. Dr Andrea hums a tune that lulls you into a calm state while instruments, fingers , a suction wand and a light all fit in my mouth. MAGIC! I think Dr Andrea's humming was a Magic spell that put me to sleep because In no time at all she said all done! I was in disbelief. My tongue touched upon the space of the missing teeth. Yep they were indeed gone. She ordered some antibiotics for me since the tooth was infected and I was ready to go home. I really do know it is not Magic.. but rather ... I have a wonderful Dentist with fabulous staff members. You can come check out Murrells Inlet Dentistry yourself. Tell them Willie sent you.

I had to wait 2 weeks for appointment (told them I had a tooth cracked) which I understand the wait…read morebut then when I arrived 15 mins late because I entered their business in google & it led me a wrong place,they all had an attitude when I walked in & told me they gave my appointment to someone else... they seemed to not even want to see me at that point & barely looked at me while I stood there wondering what to do & the woman said we will see what we can do like my appointment was in question... I could feel their annoyance which was a bit over the top... you can still politely tell someone I'm sorry but you were late.. but they treated me like I just did something bad on purpose ... The girl Sarah (at the end of my 5 minute appointment) went to set up another appointment with me & asked how I was as she looked away to type & I just politely said I was okay just a little upset that I took the whole day off & whoever booked me on the phone said they would block extra time for me knowing it was more of a serious issue that my tooth cracked .. Then she told me she was the one who booked it & got defensive. ( I was actually willing to let it go but I just wanted to express a little disappointment) she proceeded try & shame me for being late & I said I didn't do it on purpose you must know this is an issue with the address & she kept saying well I shouldn't have been late if I wanted to be treated today & that she only blocked off an hour (which I would have also appreciated her telling me that on the phone when I asked how long should I block off for the appointment & she said she wasn't sure how long it would take so I just took the whole day off work smh) then she said I should have called to let them know I was running late if I wanted to get helped today.. but I told her I was driving on the highway and didn't want to get in an accident......l had to pull over off the highway stressed trying to find their other address & the next one was right not the one that first came up on google.. I told her I didn't like how she was speaking to me & was trying to stay calm but she started overtalking me in a condescending tone & we were both getting louder... she was saying they have been there for 30 years & it's not their problem but google's problem ect... I said excuse me I need to finish my sentence because she wouldn't let me finish... she was being very rude & I told her she was being rude as she had a smirk on her face... So, I had to pay $128 out of pocket just for a 5 minute session today where they took like 2 xrays of just the one tooth & that's all we did & I lost money calling out of work today too.. wasted my time making me wait 2 weeks for nothing, I could have gone to a better dentist office that would have helped me sooner.. the girl who took my X-rays today was very nice & caring making sure she was gentle while taking X-rays but the office is not friendly... I have to say in the past I really loved Dr. Ballangee she's great but I am going to a new dentist office as of tmrw I already got an appointment when I told them my situation... wow people who actually care unlike how I was treated here... this is the second time I was treated so rudely by staff here.. last time a dental hygiene routine was terrible the girl was angry & kept hurting me with sharp instruments forcefully, & splashing water up my nose & all over my face carelessly looking away then noticed she was squirting up my nose & said oh sorry, apathetically... it made me not even want to come back but I gave it a second chance here today because my tooth cracked & then because the confusing address thing they hated me as soon as I walked in ... there is truly no need to be so rude, condescending, & accusatory to people... I spoke to my family about what happened & they called our dental hygienist friend who referred me to another office so I am not returning here..some staff are very rude but some are very nice too but I don't have time to play Russian roulette with my money and time not knowing how they will be.
