My previous 5 star rating was for Dr. Ortiz at Center for Smiles ONLY. The practice was sold and is…read morenow Smile Design. The new dentist(s) may be worthy of five stars also but I don't think it's fair that they "inherit" Dr. Ortiz's ratings. They should be required to start from scratch. I'll start by saying I don't tend to frequent anything other than privately owned and operated dental offices. Big corporations usually rotate dentists in and out so you can never develop a relationship with them. I knew Dr. Ortiz had sold his practice but was still working at Smile Design. However, They did not forewarn me prior to my last appointment approximately 6 months ago that Dr. Ortiz was no longer there and I'd be seeing someone new. The whole staff with the exception of 1 person is new. Consistency is what I absolutely LOVED about Center for Smiles. The staff never changed, they all knew you by name, and the atmosphere was like a family. The new staff couldn't even add up my total charge correctly. The receipt showed $86 but she charged my FSA card $88 & it took weeks to resolve getting that $2 put back (because you know an FSA don't play...they need to verify down to the last penny!) Ugh, I hate when a provider who was absolutely perfect either relocates or retires. Anyone have a dentist they love that you want to recommend??

I came in nervous due to past nerve damage, but my root canal on molar 15 was completely pain-free--just very numb. One of the coolest touches? They gave me special glasses connected to an iPad so I could watch a movie during the procedure. It made the time fly by. Accessibility and cleanliness are clearly priorities here: there are two ADA parking spots to the left of the front stairs, and the restroom is spotless and even stocked with mouthwash. Reception personally followed up afterward despite some IT issues, which I really appreciated. Minimal pain after the procedure, excellent care throughout--highly recommend!

I am so happy that the Dr that was recommended was not available because Dr.Sainsbury was that amazing! He was so kind and reassuring. He answered all of my questions and put my mind at ease.

I would recommend Dr.Sainsbury to anyone needing dental work. Just an overall great experience.

When I came home to Florida, none of my usual dentists wanted my case. My GP recommended I see Dr Mehta. Now, I live in St Pete, so Palm Harbor is a bit far, but Dr Mehta worked with me for a month on a series of temporaries before casting a softer gold crown, which I've now had for two years. So my loyalty was certainly earned, but honestly the hygienists here also just do a great job for regular checkups and cleanings. Even without bleaching my teeth always look much whiter after a cleaning here than from anywhere else. I'd recommend to anyone looking for a highly skilled and trustworthy dental practice.

His hygienist who pretended to clean my teeth was completely out of it, I seriously thought she was drugged, and she spent about 15 minutes max on them. I'd been going to Caputo for a while so on my last visit, I told him again about the same pain, and he checked the x-rays came back as white as a sheet, & told me my teeth were fine, I knew my teeth were not fine, so I went to an expert at another practice, who said I had major problems. In fact, in the exact area that Caputo claimed was fine. I Had three dead teeth thanks to the incompetent work of endodontists in South Tampa. They cracked three of my teeth. Those three had to be extracted, and I needed implants, not by Caputo, of course since he can't be trusted, and had just lied to me, but by another dentist. Evidently Caputo did not want to do the work, so he pretended I was fine when that was definitely not the case. I don't know how these guys, who blatantly lie to patients, keep their license. And unfortunately, I referred a family member to the fraud Caputo, he did dental implants for her & now the work is going bad and will need to be redone for a LOT of money.

I enrolled in Solay's monthly Clear dental plan several years ago and had a cleaning, xrays and exam scheduled last week. My prepaid plan should have paid for all of this but they refused to clean my teeth because they said that they were requiring me to pay an additional $1200 for deep cleaning. Went to another dentist for a second opinion who said there was absolutely no need for a deep cleaning and their hygienist cleaned my teeth. Spoke with Maggie, Office Manager at Solay, and cancelled my payment program and asked for $220 reimbursement for the Solay prepaid services that I had to get a different dentist. I told her that Solay's dentist never looked in my mouth when I questioned the need for deep cleaning- she said that Solay's dentists will not check the diagnosis of their hygienist and that they would not reimburse me for having to double pay services.
