Dr Smith is nice, HOWEVER, the x-rays they take are not the quality of my regular dentist. It was extremely painful and the actual xray was not nice and crystal clear like the one I had of the same exact tooth. I had a root canal which was pricey a year ago and he says to come back in 3 months to see if MORE of my bone is degrading around the tooth. I was already on antibiotics and apparently he did not read anything on my chart and offered me more. I told him I was already taking some and he commented that those were stronger, which made me wonder why he would give me a lesser version of antibiotics. I had an abscess and maybe he did not see the swelling but the dentist who I work by did. He said that the root canal could not be redone. The dentist near me said that I need to give this tooth attention in about a month. Whilst, Dr Smith said to wait 3 months. He said the entire tooth would have to go and the other dentist said they could do a partial extraction. Why I have an infection is unknown to me but something doesn't seem right.

About Front Desk: The front office staff is very nice. Part of having a dental office is to keep updated with the equipment that is able to help with a diagnosis. I drove all the way there and ended up just taking an xray that I had already done (at another office- that this office could not pull up in the treatment room. He wouldn't even look at it. I am actually going to see another endodontist to get a 3rd opinion. My beef with this place is that they need better equipment and I feel like he is trying to get me to wait over a year so that I have to pay again on the same tooth. He should offer to fix the issue and not just tell me to wait. If I am reading correctly, if you get an infection in the bone or face, this can be very serious.
