I brought my son to Dr. M. today for the first visit because he was the only dentist I could find that could get a new patient in the same day rather than 2 months out. I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the entire experience. The staff made my 9 year old comfortable, and explained everything they did. Dr. M. also mentioned a cavity my son had that his previous dentist wanted to fill: Dr. M. said not to fill it because it was so small and in a baby tooth. This saved me the cost of the filling. I appreciate that he wasn't just out to find billable expenses. However, the cost of the initial visit was quite high; the sealant cost was not included in the list of costs when I made the appointment. Dr. M also recommended that I have my son seen by an orthodontist now, which his previous dentist did not recommend. He was able to give me 5 referrals to pediatric orthodontists, which was nice.
The only complaint I have is that the front desk staff was not very welcoming when we came in. I had to attract their attention to my initial presence, and again when I had completed the papers. But all in all, I was pleased with my experience here, and will take my younger son and probably myself to Dr. M for our cleanings as well.
