My husband and I were vacationing on the island when he had a temporary crown fall off and we…read moreabsolutely could not get it back on. Of course it happens on a Saturday and not many dental offices are open. And the ones that were, refused to help. Seriously. No one. We had the crown, we even had the glue. We just couldn't get the angle right (upper molar) to get it in place. We figured it would take a dentist less than five minutes to get it back in place. But no one was willing. Except for Dr. Igawa. Everyone in his office was extremely kind and very helpful. They saved our vacation since the sensitivity made eating and drinking very difficult. And we wouldn't be going home for another week! If we lived here, Dr. Igawa would be our dentist. He's a thorough and very kind doctor and has an outstanding and friendly staff!

I went to Hawaii Family Dental (Hilo - Waiākea Villas) for a dental implant. They made me come in…read morefour times--exam, upper-teeth cleaning, lower-teeth cleaning--before even discussing the implant, which they quoted at $36,000. They also wanted to numb my gums unnecessarily and did extra x-rays. When I later went to Kea'au Family Dental, my insurance did not cover the extra x-rays, and I had to pay $120 out of pocket. I also had to pay a neighbor four separate times to drive me there and back. At Kea'au Family Dental, the exam and cleaning were completed in one visit. This experience felt like over-treatment and unnecessary expenses. Sharing to help others make an informed choice.

While I love the hygienist Adam, the front desk staff is not welcoming or helpful. During the most recent cleaning appt. we were informed that we had to pay $50 fee for broken appt. before we could be seen. The only appt. that we didn't show up to, we had called and informed them that we cannot make it on time and instead of being late, they said it was not a problem to reschedule. We waited 3 months for this rescheduled appt. to be told that we owed a fee! They also stated they didn't have time to talk to us about it and there was no record of "Rescheduling within 48 hrs" and we could either pay or not be seen. This is the way regular patients are treated when the business is aware that there are not many options on island to switch dental care to. Extremely disappointed! I'll be using their services only until I secure another provider!

(I would have preferred to stand outside the room while they shoot the image and be his advocate since he is a minor. By the time they invited me back the dentist was arriving. When asked how the cleaning went, I was told they don't clean kids teeth (no scaling, polishing or flossing). Then the fluoride treatment was pretty awful looking which they said would fall away over time. Then, I wanted to make my child's next appt with the dentist at a different location since he's only in this office 1 day per week and they insisted since we got established at Prince Kuhio plaza so we had to keep coming back there. (It's a day I work and was an unforeseen circumstance that I could be there on a Monday to begin with. Once we got home, I checked my child's teeth, he still had terrible calcium deposits on the backside of his lower teeth. Then, I called to ask the dentist to do the job he billed the insurance for, and on 2 separate occasions I got put on hold for 7 and then 10 minutes until I hung up because nobody came back to speak with me and no surprise, nobody called me back. My child has been going to the dentist since he was 2 and has had a hygienist clean his teeth every visit, including scaling and flossing. BTW, no Velcro blanket to strap him down either. He's a great little patient. (I know at least one dentist office in Hilo that wont let parents go back with their kid after age 7 and they use restraints if needed...is that even legal?) Hawaii Family Dental billed my insurance, with the EOB stating I may owe $500+. When I called billing they say I owe nothing. Not sure what's going on there... Oh- and it took 6mo or more to even get an appt with Hawai'i Family Dental. Sorry to say- I would NOT recommend this place.

I call the billing number to see if there is a mix up. They tell me to go into the office. The office explains that I had over paid by over $100+ & should not be getting billed. The office explains they will clarify with billing And that a return check should be coming in the mail. But it will take a few weeks. By January no check has come. So I call billing to find out where my check is. The manager says "oh yeah I remember getting an email about this, but I didn't know it was an urgent matter & we were waiting for the insurance to pay their portion. I'll work on this today. " Basically we overpaid by $100+, six months ago & are still waiting for our money back.
