What patients say
Vibe: family-friendly
This practice has a highly polarized reputation with stark contrasts between 5-star and 1-star reviews. Positive reviewers consistently praise the dentists' and hygienists' gentleness and skill, especially with anxious and pediatric patients, along with friendly staff. However, negative reviewers report serious quality control issues (procedural errors with crowns, misdiagnosis, filling wrong teeth), problematic front desk interactions (rudeness, poor communication, phone accessibility), insurance/billing concerns, and long appointment delays. The name 'Gentle Dentistry' resonates strongly with satisfied patients but is contradicted by multiple negative experiences describing aggressive or insensitive treatment.
