Alpenglow's is $100 to start then $35 a month which gets you 2 cleanings and x-rays each year and 15% off anything else. My x-rays were quite the adventure. I gagged one time which is normal for me. But the very nice and well-meaning hygienist wanted to help. She asked for a shaker of salt. Someone else in the office said she had one. She then comes over with a test tube of "salt" to put on my tongue to distract me so I wouldn't gag. I was highly suspicious... so I tasted some. It was citric acid. SO acidic it burned. They told me they were going to put a stripe of it on my tongue! So glad I stopped them! Just putting the story here so you can also stop them because wow that would have been awful if I'd just trusted them and had a mouthful of citric acid I expected to be a quick shake of salt. Besides that, I saw Jennifer Montgomery and really liked her. She taught me how to unlock my jaw which no one has ever taught me and I've had jaw issues since childhood. She did a thorough cleaning and didn't diagnose any problems that weren't there which is a huge problem in dentistry. Glad I found someone I can trust!

Weeks ago I had my 2nd and LAST dental appointment at AlpenGlow Dental in Bend. Here is why I call…read moreit LAST: I chose AlpenGlow when I was having trouble with Advantage Dental in La Pine. They had staffing issues. Covid was to blame and having a dentist from Portland who had to drive during snow season didn't help. Reading the good reviews of AlpenGlow, I went for my new patient appointment to get my teeth cleaned there on May 25, 2023. Due to a series of medical emergencies I had to cancel the next cleaning appointments but I went to them on November 14, 2024 and left feeling sad. After seeing what was the X-ray technician, then dentist who did gum check (I thought she was the hygienist because I never had a dentist do this), then I briefly saw THE hygienist as she peaked in the room to say she didn't have time to do my scheduled cleaning as I "needed deep cleaning that would require two appointments". I heard horrible gum numbers I have never heard in my life. I later showed my daughter the estimate and she said it was the 2nd high estimate she heard from them recently. I'm in my 70s and I have had some long-term dentists. I miss the one who retired as he took care of me and my four kids for over 27 years. I know the routine. Most dental appointments have been good for me, but I didn't feel good about the last appointment with AlpenGlow. I felt hustled and I don't even remember their names, if they gave them to me. No small talk. I also wasn't even shown my X-rays which I later realized no dentist has ever done that to me. I was told the X-rays were in the other room I didn't get to go into. Other dentists would have shown them and explained my options. Not sad now. My teeth were cleaned in one appointment by another dentist, and I felt the way I have about the good professional dentists/hygienists in my life and I'm going to return there. Saw my X-rays, no rush. Merry Christmas to me--I saved over $900! So glad I got a 2nd opinion. I got a normal cleaning with the addition of a deep clean of two teeth, not four sections. I only had a topical to help with pain on those two teeth. This is the first time in my life to be told I needed a deep cleaning. I realized that it had been almost one year and six months since they were last professionally cleaned. But somehow I needed a deep cleaning of two teeth. A few teeth below needed a little extra attention but nothing like those two teeth. I have never felt the need for a second opinion but I'm glad I got one. The office of AlpenGlow has a beautiful vista, but I am not willing to help pay for it.

They grew up over 100 years ago. This gave me a strong drive to maintain my teeth. After a bad dental report from another office, I called Bend Family Dentistry hoping to get a 2nd opinion.

Weeks later I walked out of Bend Family Dentistry on 3rd Street in Bend, my teeth properly cleaned and I'm smiling. I witnessed confident employees who love their jobs. I highly recommend Bend Family Dentistry. They provide excellent quality work, show compassion and listen to you, and their prices are reasonable. I understand and recognize good communicators of professionalism. Thank you Bend Family Dentistry!

I had decided on dentures after years of pain and she assured me this was something she could do. A full upper was done. She then told me my four front lower teeth had to go and she could make me a lower partial that looked like a retainer. So she extracted those as well. $8500.00 later she out right refused to finish my bottom partial. Her treatment coordinator simply replied to every question I had with " You have been referred to another dentist." Dr. Theda was paid in full for this work both by my insurance and in cash by me. I have no idea why she referred me. My insurance will not pay twice for same procedure and I am left withOUT four bottom front teeth. The office did offer me a refund but it was so little I can not make my mouth whole until I save enough money to pay for the copays at another dentist.

However, Dr Grieb was referred to me by a friend, so I had some hope. My visit today was GREAT and I will definitely be going back. The entire team was friendly, knowledgeable and efficient from the pre-appointment call to the end of my visit. I appreciated how they used technology to show me what they were seeing in my mouth. They also used those images to explain to me why they were making the recommendations and decisions they were making for my oral care. The hygienist Patrice was my favorite (no offense Dr Grieb). She kept checking to make sure she was not hurting me but also hurried because I told her I had another appointment I could not miss immediately after my dental appointment. She didn't let me leave until she knew my teeth were clean, but also made sure I got out of the chair in time to get where I needed to be. So I learned a lot, made it to my other important meeting plus my teeth are clean and sparkly too! What more can you ask for from a dental visit?

They were nice and my cleanings were good. Being on the road I was nervous on going to a new place. What place could be better than a place in LA? Well, a friend in town recommended this place and we called and she worked hard to get me and my husband in before we left. Calls, confirmations, phone calls. I was surprised about the effort considering they were booked months out and no guarantee when we could come back. The day of I got there and they take you on a 3 minute tour and then some paper work. You sit with the dental assistant for a minute with questions and pictures and then this crazy 360 picture. Then the dentist comes in and the exam was the best I have ever had. Not just teeth, my jaw, sinus, some other words. He spent longer than I expected and wasn't hurrying off after 10 minutes. Showed me every picture and explained everything. My current and long term situation. Then the cleaning. They use a water laser something. No scraping, except for like 45 seconds at the end. I left completely happy. Then I got in my car and looked in the mirror and BLOWN, blown away. There wasnt a single stain, and she got everything off. I love tea and soda, teeth staining experts. TMI and a little embarrassing but it keeps me going when I can. I mentioned lite brite to bleach my teet and he waved it off. Didn't try and sell me a thing or sell me a procedure. I will definitely be back. This will be the thing to bring us back to bend. The hygenist even did measurements of my gums and explained where I was with that. I highly recommend this place for their quality of work, facility (they had technology there that my LA dentist didn't have), and how genuine everyone is there. Its refreshing after LA.

He suggested I switch to a Sensitive teeth toothpaste and it's made a wonder of difference. Fast forward to this past Monday; I had my six month dental. The gal who checked me in (sorry not sure of the name) and the technician Melanie-were both lovely. The biggest surprise was that the Dr actually performed the cleaning! Usually it would be the technician in my experience. I cannot say how satisfied I was with this dentist! (PS..they have really nifty and modern x-ray machines that make the process fast an less uncomfortable, and you are in an office with a door and not in the middle of a noisy practice that has several open air stations.) Sad to say, I am relocating to the PDX area, but sincerely am thinking of making the trip down here to see him for my next cleaning! Dr. Kapp and his office are excellent!
