I walked into Dr. Dutro's office pain free to have two crowns put on two large molars with prep time being about 45 min. I have since been told by two other dentists that each molar should have been done separately since the jaw being stretched that long has caused a bad case of TMJ. I was in tremendous pain when I left the office with my temp crown. I made 5 visits to the office in the two week period while waiting for the permanent crowns, always complaining of extreme pain. The new, inexperienced assistant told me it would be better once I had the permanent crown, so it was cemented on. I was still in extreme pain, went to another dentist and was told that the permanent crown had been sealed on an abscessed tooth. I have since been on eight rounds of antibiotics since the infection got out of hand and have had two root canals on that tooth. I never felt Dr. Dutro had the time to listen to me and I have endured, and am still enduring, pain from the procedure he performed. I would not, could not ever recommend this dentist to anyone.

About Front Desk: The front desk staff was pleasant and tried to do all they could to help. I would rate them a 10!!

About Hygienist: Did not go to the hygienist, but the "assistant" was very inexperienced, not fitting the temporary crown on correctly - it had to be redone, and like Dr. Dutro, seemed very nonchalant about my pain.

I know this doctor: 3 years
