Dr Farmer was amazing and talented, but the new group are not good at filling teeth. My teeth that have been filled by them and every single one that they touched has been broken whether that be a cavity filled or a broken tooth filled. One of my front two teeth were filled by Dr. Farmer which lasted 10 years. Once one of the new crew filled it, it broke or chipped at least 5 times in different places when I was eating regular foods only a few weeks later. Once Dr. Spring herself fixed it, it has chipped even more, stained terribly, they worked on a tooth that did not need it, really bad experience. read more

Yesterday's visit was rushed. I felt like I was at a fast-food restaurant drive thru. I got a periodontal exam, teeth cleaning, and consultation in 20 minutes. The hygienist was more focused on my plans for the evening rather than being focused and thorough on my teeth. I've been going here for over 10 years, and I have never had this experience or hygienist. read more

Staff was very friendly and my first visit went smoothly. Hygienist took x-rays and Dr. Spring did my exam and cleaning. Very pleasant experience! I've found my new dental clinic! read more

Worst dentist and hygienist ever Painful and misdiagnosis and a rip off. Not nice people. Never going back read more

I had a great experience here. My hygienist was friendly and put me at ease since I'm sometimes nervous at the dentist and Dr. Zara was thorough and informative. read more

Wydown Dental Group - General Dentistry Near Me - Saint Louis, Missouri

See all

In general the Wydown Dental Group does a great job. However when I was having my filling replaced and tooth repaired there was a lot of chatter and discussion regarding other patient needs that gave me the impression that the dentist and dental assistant were not completely focused on me while dental tools were operating in or near my mouth. This made me nervous. Also, after paying my balance I went back to dental chair looking for my Chapstick and saw one of the tools on the floor that may have been used during my dental procedure. This also concerned me and made me wonder if any of the tools used during my procedure were on the floor prior to my dental work being done? While a patient is being taken care of he or she should be the focus and their should be no reason for any dental tools to be on the floor from my perspective. Sincerely The patient from 5-09-23 in the afternoon around 2 to 2:30PM read more

The office was great! My appointment was easy to schedule. Even though I got lost on the way and I was running late, you took me right in when I arrived. The dentist was friendly. I appreciated that you didn't x-ray my entire mouth just for a problem in one area. (Lots of dentists do that in California just to generate a bill) Looking forward to coming back. read more

Over the last few months, I was seen multiple times by Dr.Ahmad and Ms.Paula, I hadn't been to the dentist in some years and these two women made my first appointment back to the dentist very enjoyable. I needed a thorough cleaning, a filling, and a repair on a chipped tooth. all this was handled very well. They were very capable, knowledgeable and understanding, even when they were surprised by some things they made sure I was as comfortable as I could be considering the situation. I have a follow-up appointment today and notice I'm nowhere near as anxious as I was during those first couple follow ups. read more

I had my first appointment today. I have not been to the dentist pre Covid. (2 years!) The staff was very kind, caring, professional and gentle. This is the best dental experience I've had. Highly recommend. read more

Location is convenient. I was seen promptly for my scheduled appointment and the cleaning and exam were fine. I've had a note in my chart for 20+ years not to use mint but had to stop, rinse, start again when technician used mint. Then instead of an appointment in 6 months they were fully booked for next 9 months. Tech said they need to hire more dental technicians for cleanings. Seems like that ought to be a major priority. read more

Not sure what happened there. I have been the customer for a while. Yesterday it was a terrible experience. I got a new girl who did the wrong procedure and then somehow the equipment was broke. So i got all the stuff in my mouth and they just gave a cup to spit it out. Once it was fixed, the dentist cleaned my top teeth and left. I waited for 10 minute alone. she came back to do my bottom teeth. At last, she didnot give me the usual toothpaste and tooth brush etc. I am looking for new dentist now. read more

Amazing people who work here! They have always been warm and welcoming. They make it comfortable visiting the dentist! They shine from the rest. read more

I am concerned about radiation induced cancer (head/neck), and so unless a dentist is able to give a good reason to take dental x-rays, I decline them. At Wydown Dental Group, the owner implements a blanket approach, requiring x-rays for all patients regardless of the conditions of the mouth. When asked why, she said that it was to find cavities between the teeth and unbelievably told me that she needs the x-rays to look for cancer (to avoid litigation). This is a load of rubbish as dental x-rays are certainly not the primary diagnostic tool for detecting oral cancer (and when I offered to sign a waiver/release, I was refused, and told that if I didn't comply I would need to go elsewhere.) In regards to cavities between the teeth, a patient who is conscientious about oral hygiene and whose hygiene is professionally evaluated and recognized as very good would be considered low risk (especially if they are coming in every six months), and a great dentist is one who would acknowledge the patient's personal risk and not force the x-rays. In such patient cases, caries are never going to suddenly present severely and require drastic measures. Unlike Wydown Dental Group, our family's pediatric dentist understands my approach. Together we decide if an X-ray is merited, which is a pretty rare occurrence for us, and my kids have zero cavities/fillings. If you are concerned for your family about unnecessary X-ray exposure avoid Wydown Dental Group -- and find a dentist willing to work with you! read more

I gave them one star for the service. Every time I call them, they put me on hold forever! It took me 30 minutes to just make an appointment with them. That is ridiculous! read more

The receptionist isn't the best, and doesn't always pick up the phone or explain wait times, etc, but we are usually seen in the back quickly. The dental technicians are nice and seem thorough. Dr. Farmer has always been nice to our family and taken the time to give us good care. He even gave us his cell number once when our son had an abscess to follow up with him over the weekend after draining it and giving us antibiotics. The BIGGEST downside to this place is the parking...you have to double park in the back, and I have had to move my car in the middle of a cleaning before. read more

Dr Lloyd who cares for me many years has retired. The hygienists there are fine and the care I have received otherwise has been fine. However, the administration is terrible. I have called for days unable to reach them. They do not take voicemail and most often you get a busy signal. Further, they keep short hours being closed on Thursdays for instance. It seems like they are just closing down but by bit. read more

Dr. Farmer has treated myself and all 6 of my children for the last 15 years. My kids love him! He is kind and caring and has helped get us get in immediately when we've had a tooth emergency. Growing up I was always afraid of going to the dentist but my children enjoy going. I am so grateful to him and his technicians who make the visit as pleasant as possible. Just be aware the parking situation is not the most user friendly and sometimes there are long wait times as Dr. Farmer does get emergency people in at times. Bring a book or something to entertain you and your children, he is worth it. read more

Dr. Farmer has been my dentist since I was a child. He is my entire family's dentist. I absolutely love him. He is kind and attentive. Yes the appointments do take some time because it is a small office, but everyone there is amazing. I have grown up with the staff there. I would recommend bringing something to do while you wait. Dentists appointment do take time as they have to wait till you are numb or get your X-rays, etc. Yes the parking is terrible, but everything else makes it a place worth going to. read more

So disappointed in Wydown Dental after years of great service. The former dentists have retired, and things are not the same. I walked out today after waiting a half hour in the lobby and another five minutes in the hygienist's chair after they could not find my records. read more

This place is extremely unprofessional and operates as a client mill rather than a patient centered serivce provider. I got a phone message two days before my appointment that was unprofessional, but it was at least nice of them to call to "remind" me of my appointment at 9am. I showed up at 9am and got back into a room at 9:25. When I got to the back, where there were not actually rooms (so i was shocked at the lack of privacy I would have) I was informed that they would 1) x-ray my teeth (after they went and made sure my insurance would cover it... but they had already called my insurance company once since I'd been there) and 2) the dentist would give me an exam, but they would not be able to clean my teeth and I would have to reschedule because they had another patient at 9:30 they had to get to. After I protested, they told me if I waited another hour they may be able to fit me in for my teeth cleaning even though that is what I had scheduled all along. They were, however, willing to submit me to radiation and have the dentist see me so that he could bill my insurance. I walked out and will never be back again. They only wasted 30 minutes of my time, but I also waited a month for this appointment when I could have found a different dentist to get respectable care in the meantime. Stay far away from these people unless you are ok with no privacy, old, run down office space, and being pushed through their system like a mill. I can't imagine they are able to give decent individualized care through their method of handling patients. read more

I've never experienced such unprofessionalism by a dental organization. The receptionist was incredibly rude and contacted my home at 6:25am because they did not receive a confirmation. When I said "do you know it's 6:15?" and she said "yes, I know". After I told her she woke my entire family, she just proceeded to talk about an appt that is scheduled. I will never go to this place again. read more

I love Dr. Farmer. He always has a smile on his face and then makes sure you have one too. He does not try and sell you with unnecessary procedures. GREAT dentist! read more

I waited for 40 minutes only to find out the receptionist forgot to check me in. Left very disappointed. Not coming back
