This review has been a long time coming but here I am, finally doing it. I brought my son here for a cleaning and X-rays, the usual visit to ensure he was healthy. Keep in mind this was our first, last, and only visit to this place. The dentist insisted he had cavities but wouldn't let me see the X-rays, my child has never had a cavity. She kept insisting he needed braces right away, and while I understood I explained I simply can't afford it, and that's all she kept drilling me about, getting braces for my child. His teeth are not so bad they are life threatening or causing him pain. I did not feel right about this woman and her energy so I came back to Show Low to see my son's dentist since birth, he confirmed my son has NO CAVITIES! This practitioner is a crook! A scammer! Do not go here! She will ruin your teeth while robbing your bank account! BEWARE!!!!
Going to A Gentle smile was entirely pleasant. The staff are extremely courteous and knowledgeable. My mouth didn't hurt at all after my cleaning for the first time in my life. They explained to me and showed me pictures about my teeth when I asked, answered any and all questions I had. Simply marvelous. I would voluntarily go there every day just to hang out with them. Such a friendly and awesome environment. If I ever move, I would actually consider driving or flying back to see the doctor 2 times a year, that's how good he is.Go here!
I like my dentist. She is very nice, fast, and does not try to upsell me or do work that does not need to be done. When I first came here about 3 years ago, I had not been to a dentist in 10 years. She offered an annual plan $95 for radiographs and annual exam, 2 cleanings a year (at $19 or 29, I can't remember, but cheap), and 50% off all services such as fillings. The hygienist Kristen and the front desk young woman are very friendly and make me smile each time I visit. Without dental insurance, I can still get my teeth taken care of for pretty cheap.
Don't walk but run away! 1st I was told that they give a discount for cash so I paid for an X-ray and teeth cleaning. After they gave me an X-ray they said that I needed $4900 worth of dental work. And they would give me a WHOLE $100 off for paying cash. They said I needed work that I did NOT need. They also got pissed off when I said $4900 was too much, and then they gave me attitude and never did the teeth cleaning I paid for. I went to another dentist who did the work I needed for $1000. I went back and asked this place for a refund, they told me they would talk to the owner and call me back. It never happened. This place is dead as a door nail, they will be out of business soon.
Highly recommend this dentist. Second visit and still really great service. She takes the time to explain things to you. She gives her honest genuine opinion when it comes to dental hygiene; most importantly she is very careful with treating you! Front desk is efficient as well
