When my wife and I went to see Dr. Harris Segal, were were both told that we needed dental work because our fillings were getting old and needed to be replaced. We both suffer from Sjogren's Syndrome, which causes suffers to have very dry mouth. Having inadequate saliva production is not only uncomfortable, but is also makes it very difficult to prevent dental cavities.
After spending nearly $100,000 for dental work, all of our fillings, crowns, and bridges done by Dr. Harris Segal began having problems less than 5 years later. By that time we were retired, living on a fixed income, and no longer had dental insurance. When I called to talk with Dr. Harris Segal about these problems, he would not take my telephone calls. His office manager told me that he said we should find another dentist since we no longer had dental insurance.
We went to see a dentist who is a specialist in Prosthodontics for a consultation. He said that the fillings, crowns, and bridgework done by Dr. Harris Segal could not be salvaged. He said that the work done by Dr. Harris Segal was “marginally competent”, but not bad enough to be considered malpractice.
Both of us have since lost several teeth, which we can no longer afford to have replaced. Dr. Harris Segal is a very funny and pleasant man, but not a very good dentist. If the cost of dental care is not an issue, and you have no aversion to dentures, you might consider going to Dr. Harris Segal.
