I had a horrible experience here. I went for a root canal and opted for one of the most expensive 100 % porcelain crown for my front teeth. This crown was recommended by the doctor and since its for my front tooth I went for it. She charged me about $1500 for the root canal and crowning and also charged my insurance $1500. After about an year the crown broke and she replaced it with another crown for which I had to pay. During the procedure she filed my front tooth so much that there's barely anything there. She did an extremely bad job and now it feels that a round pebble is in my mouth, like something stuck in my mouth. She also did not match the color of the crown with the rest of my front teeth and as a result this crown stands out and is very noticeable when I open my mouth. The dentist told me that you will get used to it but I have been trying to get used to for 2 years. Furthermore recently I had pain in that tooth and was told by another dentist that she did not do the root canal properly and one vein/gap was not filled and that has resulted in infection coming up again. I later came to know a lot of people whose root canal was done badly by this dentist. The front office staff is great but do not let that fool you to get an appointment. I will repent this for life but I do not want others to face the same nightmarish experience as I have. If I could have given this dental practice negative stars then I would have.
