out of Read Reviews for Dr. David Cochran
My wife and I have seen Dr. Cochran for filling/cleaning for 6 yrs, during which, he and his staff performed OK. However, when I ran into a serious problem with one of my wisdom teeth, Dr. Cochran assumed the nerve under the tooth was dead and proceeded to grind down the tooth to minimize downward pressure on my bad tooth while chewing. However, it turned out that the nerve was NOT dead!! Therefore, he aggravated my pain to extreme levels and exposed the nerve to heat and cold by grinding down the tooth which sent me home screaming from the nerve pain! When I called him the next day for help, he said there was nothing further he could do for me and advised me to get the tooth extracted. However, the same day, I went to another dentist who took the time to clean the tooth from inflammation, inserted medication in the cavity; both procedures have immediately stopped the pain which was amazing. My new dentist promised me time without pain for 30-60 days which has proved to be true. The new dentist also recommended that I would get the tooth evaluated for root canal (to save the tooth) instead of having it extracted. Following this incident, my wife and I switched from Dr. Cochran to my new dentist.

Dr. Cochran is friendly, gets to know you, and provides excellent treatment. He never over-charges, and always looks for ways to save the patient money. I will never change dentists!

My entire family has been going to Dr Cochran since we moved into the area 7 years ago. Everyone there is very nice and professional and I would recommend them to anyone.

Dotor was hurried, and did a poor job on my two fillings. I had to have them corrected by another dentist one year later.
