Go to this dentist at your own risk. He put a crown in. Did it wrong. Kept charging to fix it, but never corrected what was wrong. Another dentist saw what was wrong with one simple x-ray and fixed the problem. He does not like people who come to him dressed casual.
About Front Desk: Front office staff are good except for the dentist wife who works the front office.
About Hygienist: Five stars for the hygienist.

This is the dentist from hell. He put in an implant for me. I kept having problems with it. So I kept going back to fix the problems. I must have paid 10k on this implant. Once it fell out eating noodles. He had to put in another at high cost to me. I continued to have problems. Finally I went to another dentist who told me the implant was put in WRONG ! The new dentist fixed the problem. I have not had a problem since. Another time. he put cotton and suctions in my mouth then spent the next half hour on the telephone ! Another time he recommended a procedure by saying " this is what I would do for my friends". I was also criticized because I was dressed casual. I went to this dentist my whole life up to that time, so I was loyal. He is a a different dentist now buyer beware. This dentist and his assistant ( his wife ) interest is one thing. Your money.

I have been going to Dr. Davidson for 25 years and love him! He won't rip you off and has a very funny, friendly manner. I wouldn't trust anyone else with my teeth. I have recommended many people to him over the years and they have all been happy as well. The office staff and dental hygienists are all professional and nice as well. I highly recommend Dr. Davidson!
About Hygienist: all of them are great!

Crowns, Fillings, root canals, cleanings & preventive care, etc. Went to this Dr. for over 8 years. Went in one day because of tooth pain and was told that I had a gum disease. Was put on a schedule to come in every 3 months for deep cleanings, which were expensive but I did it. During this time lost a filling and went in to have it replaced, x-rays were taken & I was told that "all of a sudden" I needed 6 new crowns. I recently retired and because I wasn't on a dental plan or didn't have the cash to get them all done right away, I was referred by the Dr. to USC Medical School to get the work done, there was no consideration made for all the years, time and money that I'd spent in this facility trusting the Dr's judgment. Could see and hear them all whispering about me and was treated rudely after that. Went to another dentist who said that I only needed 3 fillings and to replace a bridge. The same 6 teeth that Dr. Davidson said needed immediate crowns. I was needlessly stressed out and treated poorly by staff when it was determined that I couldn't pay $1400 each for 6 crowns right away.

The doctor is VERY sweet and friendly!
Never had any pain or problems.
All the hygenists and the front desk are very kind and friendly as well
They didn't take any dental discount programs unfortunately - so the prices are not cheap.

My upper teeth were all crowned. It involved some root canal work. Dr Davidson brought in someone who specialized in this area, to do that work. Whilst the crowns were being made, I had "temporary" crowns, which had to removed sometimes, in order to complete the work before the permanent ones were placed. My lower teeth were levelled, filled (white) where appropriate. I was made a removable bridge to fill spaces in the lower teeth. It was a serious amount of work and was completed over a six week period in 1988. I live in the UK and heard Dr Davidson was the best, I was not disappointed I have kept appointments over the years, as I did not trust anyone to upset his great work. And I still do not. It was worth every cent. I still intend to visit his office in the near future, to maintain my teeth. Obviously living in another country, it is not always so simple. I still regard him as "my dentist" and trust him completely. I did suffer some pain but was always given adequate pain relief and was reassured at all times. The hygienist is excellent. Costs are not exessive. The office is spotlessly clean, with efficient, friendly staff. I don't think I am the only overseas patient Dr Davidson has. I think that says it all.

Dr. Davidson has a tremendous bedside manor. He makes you feel at ease and doesn't try to sell you work you do not need. I was relocated to Chicago twenty years ago, but I have never had a dentist as good at Dr. Davidson.

Dr. Davidson was my dentist for many years and did all my crowns, front and back, extractions, bridges, and cleaning over many years. The results were always perfect .
Unfortunately I moved out of the state and have had to see other dentists since then. None compare.
Dr. Davidson has been the best dentist in my long experience.
