Dr. LaCorte did work on our daughters teeth when determined with xrays she had some small cavities. She had to drink oral sedation liquid to have the work done. It was unsuccessful and instead of encouraging or discussing other options with us on what would be best for her, he continued to replace the fillings after unsuccessful work which then led to an abscess which led to a extraction and 3 crowns from our new dentist we changed too. I can't say how hurtful this was to her and us as parents. She was out with anethesia for 2.5 grueling hrs getting her work done, which was also replacing the fillings that weren't done correctly in the 1st place. I had taken her back and forth for nearly 1yr, having them replaced. She was 5 at that time and without proper communication between the Dr. and us, the outcome was devistating. now 2 yrs later the teeth that were 1st filled with by Dr. LaCorte are now crowned and another abscess has come from this, which will now result in another extraction! After filing a complaint with the AZ. State Dental Board he is still a dentist. It's heartbreaking and not to mention its been a HUGE expense for us. If only he had counciled us or turned us away I have to believe the outcome would have been better
