Dr. Strader does good quality work and his office staff is very friendly and helpful. I like that he uses less toxic dental materials as well. This is what brought me to him when searching on the internet for a mercury free dentist. However, he uses a high tech camera and a big flat screen in front of you. He takes pictures of your teeth for you to see- very convincing. He then points out every discoloration/flaw of your teeth and tells you they need fixing of some sort. He is not conservative at all and very centered on cosmetics alone. He told me I had several cavities and needed a crown on a tooth that was already filled. I thought something was fishy that my old dentist that I have gone to for years never mentioned any of these supposed cavities. I went back to my dentist for my next cleaning and she said those spots that he told me were cavities are dicolorations that have been there for years. She has been watching them for years and they have not started to turn into cavities. She also said the filled tooth did not need a crown as the filling was in good condition- no need to mess with it. I am sure Dr. S does fine work, but he was not honest with me and used the camera to convince me that I needed unnecessary work done.

About Front Desk: Office staff was very nice and patient. However it did take them a long time to run/verify my insurance while I was sitting in the chair waiting for my dental work to begin, and he is out of network for all insurance plans. Also, office staff scheduled me for an appointment (I requested the time off work) then they called back when it was pretty close to the appointment date and said Dr. S would not be in the office.
