This doctor has done unnecessary procedures on me, misdiagnosed me, and lost my x-rays. I do not recommend him. Dr Worley recommended a crown and crown lengthening procedure, due to a biologic width violation. After the procedure, I was in more pain than before. I returned and was told that everything was fine. I returned again a few months later, due to increasing pain, and was told that I had a "huge infection," and needed an "emergency" root canal. I mentioned the biologic width issue- the main reason for the crown. Dr Worley told me I was mistaken, the reason for the crown had been a crack in the tooth. This is not what I had been told. I got a second opinion, first from a dentist and then from two separate endodontists. They all agreed - I had needed a root canal for at least a year - the crown had been a mistake. And the "giant infection" that Dr Worley had pointed out to me was an xray of my sinus cavity. The actual infection was of a moderate size and had not spread from my tooth. Dr Worley also advised me to cancel my dental insurance, which he told me was a bad deal. This advice has cost me over a thousand dollars. He has a very friendly demeanor and a great staff, but I don't trust his opinion.
