Every day I wake up I look in the mirror and am reminded why I no longer go to South Street Family dental. I went to this dentist with a small chip on my front tooth - not even an 1/8th inch off a corner. I also was having a cavity filled, and after being pumped up with drugs, they convinced me to have my front tooth replaced with a crown instead of getting a little bit of bonding like I have had in the past. I thought doctors were supposed to be on their patient's side, but boy was I wrong. I had to go back 4 separate times, with a different dentist 3 times, and 3 separate crowns that they had to order. While this was going on, one of the dentists actually left their office because he didn't agree with the underhandedness of the place. The last time I was there the dentist was frustrated and put me in so much pain that I was unable to drive myself home. I never knew that I could experience so much pain before just from dental work. After going to another dentist, he said that a crown was never necessary and he has heard of them doing that to other patients. In addition, the whole cancer screening thing that they tell you is part of the checkup - well, the additional money tacked on when I went to check out was a surprise to me. Come to find out, you don't need to have that screening done with the fancy liquid they trick you into getting - my new dentist just uses his eyes and training to do it. Long story short, the amount of money I have spent and the amount of pain that was forced onto me was absolutely horrible. Do not trust them unless you like being in pain and paying for it. I don't normally leave reviews, but if I can help just 1 person avoid a fraction of the pain and money that I have lost to this unscrupulous dentist, then it may make me feel a little better. If you want to experience this anyway, I would say go to a used car lot, buy the most expensive car, and them have him kick you in your head. That would have made me feel better.
