It really worried me that I couldn't get any questions answered here. I couldn't get a straight answer out of anyone! They were far to arrogant to get any sort of outside advice, even though they knew they should. I was hoping to see someone that considered my safety more important than always having an answer. Apparently they haven't ever heard of the saying "the customer's always right" here. Having a high level of customer service doesn't appear to be their top priority. I was in excruciating pain during my entire procedure, and I asked for a local anesthetic but they just told me to deal with the pain. They had absolutely no compassion for me. Equipment is dirty, dentist is in a hurry only in it for the money. My filling didn't last fell out after a few months and he said it was my fault. Save yourself and don't go there!
