I went to this "biological" dentist because I wanted to discuss having my mercury fillings removed. I also had some additional mouth/jaw issues to be discussed. I have always had a positive experience with "holistic" centers and expected much the same. Instead, I was extremely disappointed to find this center focused on money, money, money instead of on the well being of their patients. This dentist recommended over $1000 of treatment with other professionals in his office before we would even begin to address the issues I had gone to see him for. He diagnosed me with diseases I did not and do not have, and scared me into spending over $600 at his office before I got smart and realized that his priority seemed to be making as much off of each patient as possible. I feel sorry for anyone visiting this facility who does not have experience with what this type of place should be like. This dentist plays on people's fears. Each of the three times I left his office I felt hopeless and scared. It was a new experience for me. Thankfully I found a wonderful dentist in Arlington who set me on the right path, and took a conservative approach in treatment. The two experiences could not have been more different...

About Hygienist: This was not a good experience either. I have always been told I have "great" teeth by my regular dentist and hygienist. This hygienist at Natural Horizons commented that my teeth looked more like those of a 50 or 60 year old (I am much younger), and then went into a sales pitch about the toothbrush and waterpik sold in their offices. It lasted five minutes and was a hard sell. At $200 for the cleaning, I did not appreciate this sales tactic. Then I was told that I needed to come back in one month for another cleaning...! This from the same place that when they tried to scrape my teeth for plaque, they commented that they couldn't find any because of how clean I keep them. This place is all about taking people's money. I wouldn't go back even if it was free...
