Dr. Shiri told me I had a cavity in a tooth a (which I later learned was a lie) in addition to insisting I needed two caps on teeth I had currently had fillings in with no pain or problems. These diagnoses were given to me when I had only come in for a cleaning. I told Shiri I had little money and couldn't afford dental work that wasn't urgent. He was sure it was. He began with the two caps. He tried to give Novacaine shot, but missed the spot, very painful. He then -without warning or explanation - drilled through my gum into my jawbone to administer a numbing agent. This was the most excruciating pain I have ever felt. And shocking as it was unexpected. Despite my telling him this, he did it again several times ( you can't see what someone is doing in your mouth.) He discusses nothing with his patients, & uses a secondary dentist to do half the work, assembly line style. He has hideous judgement. I screamed out loud. I went to another dentist to have the cavity filled, as I refused to see Shiri again. The punchline? There was no cavity. I saw the Xray. Shiri lied to me, he said I had a cavity that I didn't. He was going to drill into a healthy tooth for money. Do not trust this man. He shouldn't have a license.
