I have been going to Dr. Spindell for 25 years - he has done a lot of different procedures & is the BEST!! I am very nervous when I go to the dentist but I calms me immediately . He is gentle & most important he does preventative dentistry that helps your teeth & financially..
He cares very much about his patients - he is always available for any type of dental emergencies.

LACKS BASIC CLEANLINESS; USES OUTDATED AMALGAMS for fillings
While removing a filling from my mouth, Dr Spindel stopped to take notes.
He opened a drawer and wrote with a pen. I then asked ( with a mouth full
of novacaine) to please change his gloves before resuming the filling.
He replied "I will then have to change my gloves 10 times per procedure".
I then asked him again to please change his gloves.
(He then rinsed off his gloves but NEVER changed them. I am not kidding!)
I could not leave because too much work was already in progress.
Is it acceptable dentistry to touch DIRTY objects and then
place your hands BACK in a patient's mouth?
( I would also like this review to be on record in case I get some sort of infection. If he could do this, I now have a concern if his instruments are properly sterilized)
In addition and before I realized it, he put an amalgam filling in my mouth knowing
that I had a concern about such fillings.
(Finally, the tooth that
needed the new filling is now 'cracked' and I may LOSE it. However, I cannot be
completely sure if this is Dr. Spindel's fault. However there was no mention of it when he began the procedure.)
On the positive side, his office staff is lovely.

Procedures: Fixed bridgework, root canal, deep root cleaning; Left after procedures went horribly wrong and loss of teeth resulted. There was no taking responsibility for procedures gone wrong either -- just dead silence. I left in disgust. If you need this type of work, please see a prosthodontist instead. The cost is comparable and you will get the expertise you need for successful procedures.

Dr. Spindel's office is always a pleasure to visit. The staff is so loving and caring, they treat you as if your family. Dr. Spindel is a fabulous dentist!!! He has a great eye for perfection.
The cosmetic caps he made for my front teeth and the veneers for the sides are incredible! I get so many raves about my beautiful smile and I owe it all to Dr. Spindel.
Dr. Spindel has the coolest video glasses that you can wear to watch a video while getting your dental work done. These glasses are super cool, makes you so relax and eases the fear of the dental work. I look forward to my next appt, bringing some of my dvd movies that I never seen to have time to watch.
I have been to my share of dentists in the past and I have to truly say that Dr. Spindel is the best around.
