Dr. Yasbin is a nice guy, but the results of his work were less than satisfactory. He performed a root canal on one of my teeth. A year or so later, I had to have another root canal on a different tooth. This time I saw the root canal specialist in the same office, Dr. Jafari. When Dr. Jafari looked at my x-rays the first thing he said was "I didn't do that other root canal! I know I didn't." He could tell it was a poor job. Turns out the original RC was infected and now I'll have to have it re-done. Also, the Dental One billing people continually billed me more than they initially claimed their services would be. Early on, they printed me a treatment plan that indicated I would be responsible for about $520 for work on two teeth. Turns out I had to pay over $1050 out of my pocket. They said it was because my dental insurance maxed out for the year, but my question is why didn't they tell me that would happen in my treatment plan? Beware of the Dental One treatment plans!

About Hygienist: The Hygienists in Dr. Yasbin's Dental One Associates office were generally less than attentive. Most of the time they were chattering to each other about non-work related things. I actually had to correct one hygienist who was trying to put a crown on the wrong tooth. I had to show her where the correct tooth was!
