I work nearby and decided to visit Clayton Dental for a dental filling for a cavity. It was my…read morefirst visit with the practice. They did an evaluation and the full cavity filling in less than an hour. The laser was used instead of the traditional grinder and there was literally zero pain. My dentist was Dr. Julia and her assistant was Debie.

I stumbled upon this office and quickly learned that Dr. Bedford & his staff are WONDERFUL. Since my first phone call with them they were so helpful and kind, I really felt welcomed and that they really wanted to help me. They worked with me to make sure my insurance would cover everything and even returned my calls and kept me up to date. They called to remind me to not eat or drink the day of my surgery and the day of they were so nice and informative, they made sure I was comfortable and wanted me to ask any questions I had. My wisdom teeth removal went great and although I don't remember leaving, my boyfriend was filled in on how to follow up and care for my mouth for the next week. I am so happy and please with my experience here, I will recommend them to anyone who asks and will return if I have to.

And while nothing about going to the dentist is comfortable, I at least felt confident that while here, my teeth were being treated well, I wasn't getting scammed out of my money, and they truly cared about me...well, my mouth, at least. :) The assistants were wonderful and sweet, and the dentist actually surprised me with his "next-door neighbor" demeanor. A nice guy. I ended up getting my teeth cleaned but then went back and got them to replace a cap on a chipped tooth. They did a fantastic job and really paid attention to detail. I've already recommended them to friends and I certainly recommend them to anyone who asks.

My family and I used to go to Wydown dental ever since I was a child. But with going off to med…read moreschool and my family moving out of state, I've been looking for a dentist after I moved back to St. Louis. I would have gone back to Wydown, but turns out my dentist retired. So I thought this would be a good opportunity to try a new location. Scheduling can be done online and they email you the new patient paperwork ahead of time so that you don't have to do to it when you get there. For the new patient appointment, they are very thorough with your exam. Everything from gross examination to full x-rays, I was impressed that they checked for lip melanomas, any lesions, and even lymph node swelling in the neck area. Maybe this is standard for new patients for all dentists lol. I really appreciated that someone came in and showed the outline of how much everything would be before continuing with any cleaning or treatments you may need. My actual dentist was kind enough to explain everything on imaging and his impressions of my oral hygiene. I feel like I learned so much about dental anatomy/pathology in the 15 minutes he spent with me. Everyone at the facility was kind and I didn't feel like they were rushing at all. I'm so happy to have found this location!

Easily the worst dental experience I've had in 20 years. To wit:…read more -They called and cancelled my appointment via voicemail because of what turned out to be a mistake on THEIR end. I had to call back to reinstate the appointment, and they weren't apologetic. -The X-ray tech was terrible. The X-rays took forever and hurt, and the tech was not apologetic in the least. The experience left a literal sore in my mouth that took days to clear up. -They tried to convince me that I needed gingival planing and couldn't do regular cleaning. I've been getting regular cleanings every six months for decades and brush and floss regularly. Notably, when I got to the office I had seen two people leave and BOTH were scheduling gingival planing. After looking into the PE company that owns them I saw recurring accusations that this is a common grift. -When I asked if I could just do a regular cleaning for now and come back for the gingival planing the doctor told me he couldn't do that or he'd get in trouble with "the board." I left, went back to my old dentist who had no concerns about the state of my gums and just did a regular cleaning. If you like ineptitude and grift, this is the place for you. If you want a decent experience with an honest dentist, go somewhere else.

Finding a new dentist is hard. Finding the right dentist is even more of a challenge. Who will you…read moretrust with your teeth? Is this person going to be gentle or understanding about your dental needs? Will they treat you kindly? Those were some of the many questions lurking inside my head when I needed to find a new dentist. I honestly went to one just a few blocks from this office a week or two before coming here. I had my cleaning there and heard some rude comments by the dentist (not addressed to myself but to another patient). Still, that comment made me not want to go back there. Luckily, I searched around, found this place and I've been happy since! I started seeing Dr. Ahmad-Majeed in September initially for a second opinion about all the work my new/former dentist wanted to do after meeting for the first time. I explained to her my fear of going to the dentist and that if it's true that we truly do need to replace several fillings that I would appreciate it if we do it at a pace I am comfortable with. I also had a crown that supposedly needed replacing prior to coming here which she then confirmed to be correct but again, she let me choose when I would be comfortable enough to get the work done. She even offered some anxiety medication but I refused since my anxiety level is really not that unmanageable. She started doing some of the dental work that needed done from around October and finished everything by November. I know it sounds like a lot but they were 3 fillings that needed redone and a new crown. The procedures were spaced out nicely though so I didn't feel too anxious during every visit. The procedures went smoothly and Dr. Ahmad-Majeed had always made sure that I was comfortable during them and wasn't in any unbearable pain. She willingly gave me breaks when I needed them especially when she was working on my fillings. I came back today to get my 6-months cleaning and met Carolyn who is a dental hygienist at the office. She was also very friendly and kept asking me if I was doing okay throughout the cleaning process. I had one area which was sensitive and she quickly became aware of it from my wincing. She also explained why I have sensitivity issue on that area and offered some ways to alleviate the issue. Overall, I like this dental office and I've had a wonderful experience here. I know dental work can never truly be a wonderful experience but it can be made better by the attitude of the people doing the work. In this case, it's very true for me!

I recently moved to the area from out of state and realized that I was overdue for a cleaning. I…read moremade an appointment at Dental Care STL. It was a great experience. The office is clean and the staff is friendly and professional. I felt immediately at ease. Dr. Ahmad has since filled two cavities for me. I was very nervous after a difficult root canal experience in my previous city, but she was friendly, kind, and patient. The experience was surprisingly quick and I feel great. I would recommend this practice to others.

I've been here 3 times now. The online new-patient form saves a lot of time for paperwork when you…read morefirst arrive. They also have an online appointment form (which I received a call-back within the same day!) The inside of the office is super clean, welcoming, and professional. The front staff is very nice as well. I loved the two different hygienists there (Debbie and Linda). Both times, I felt like my routine cleaning were through and comfortable. They take the time to let you know what they're doing and educate you on HOW to maintain good hygiene tips. I've learned so much from just one visit. They also give you little goodie bags with a toothbrush, floss and tooth paste after each cleaning visit. Although the time to get into the back is virtually no wait time, when you're seated in the operation chair it can take anywhere from 15 min to over 30 minutes to get actually start the appointment. Last time, I was waiting in the back for 30 minutes. There are two doctors in this facility and most of the time, the doctors are working on multiple patients at once. The dental assistants seem to be attentive and also friendly. I will say that both doctors are little more stoic and down to business. Since my visits were just to get fillings, I can only speak to that. The doctors are very attentive to when they think you're experiencing pain so that they can give you more numbing to make you more comfortable. Like most dental offices, they are kind of pushy to get you to commit to another appointment (cleaning or otherwise). Not sure how other dental care costs compare but one filling without insurance racks up to $200, and with my insurance I still had to pay $77 out of pocket (something about deductibles). Last time, two cavities cost me $82. Tip: They will schedule a cleaning and not leave time for you to see the doctor! Make sure you make it clear that you want both since they book their appointments for cleaning and other visits separately. I had to learn the hard way and have to come back for a follow up visit TWICE... (why I'm taking away 1 star).

I left early for my appointment in the uber, but was stuck in terrible traffic and said I would be 20 minutes late. 20 minutes went 5 minutes over the grace period and was told I had to reschedule. Every time I come in the office an orthodontist is telling someone to squeeze someone in the schedule, but that never is the case with me. I asked to get switched to an Illinois location and was told I can't do that because all offices are independent, but I talk to an Illinois worker when I make payments. This was very distasteful. You could've at least told someone I wasted $60 one way going to the place and $40 to leave Mo. I wasted $100 because I would've been 5 minutes over the grace period. I now have to wait a whole month just to get rescheduled. I'm at the end of my braces journey and regret having them do my service. I never get calls for canceled appointments like I request. I was bringing my oldest daughter here for treatment, but this ruined that. They Jam Pack their schedule. Reschedules are 1 month+ out. Unfair! Distasteful! 0/10 Highly DON'T RECOMMEND‼
