Get a second opinion. I was told I had gingivitis. I did not after a second checkup with a different dentist. I feel I was quoted a lot of money for unnecessarily work. Happy with my second choice. My choice. I am 66 yrs. young.
Dr. Donna Smolinski has been my dentist for over ten years. I am thankful for her knowledge and caring attitude after every visit. I have what I call a very "difficult mouth." Dr. Smoliniski has always been able to adapt to how to treat everything from fillings, root canals, bridges, crowns, and implants for me. The entire staff are excellent in their positions, kind and efficient. I appreciate how diligent everyone as always been to make sure each space is spotless. I am always cold in medical spaces and a blanket is at the ready for my appointments. I never thought I'd have a dentist that I call by her first name and a dental space that is mostly run by solar power!
if you are a skittish type person with the thoughts of going to the Dentist this is your place to be they all are absolutely phenomenal. Dr. Donna and her assistants are the greatest and the ambiance of the building is so relaxing you won't hardly know a thing is being done . I'm 71 years old and this is by far not my first dentist I've been to but NOW this is the only one for me I'm completely satisfied with my Surgery(Painless) and complete set of new Dentures . Thank you Dr.Donna I have enjoyed my visits. Big Mike 3/18/20
Please get other estimates before you have any work done by this dentist. I recently had upper dentures put in by this dentist. I looked around and got estimates for the work. Prices ranged from $4500 to $6000. I chose her her price was $6000. She told me that was the price for everything. All check-ups, any problems and a permanent denture. Well right from the beginning I had a problem. When she pulled all my teeth, she left a small part of a bone or tooth in my gums. I complained 3 times over the year. She kept telling me it would adjust. Well it never did. Now however she wants $2000 to fix that. Plus she wants another $2100 for the permanent denture. I said that was part of what I paid for. She said I sis not understand the contract. I said you misled me. My wife heard the same thing that all that was covered in the price. I went with the highest price thinking I was going to get the best service and equipment. Instead I ran into a con-artist. It is a shame. Little does she know I speak with about 300 to 400 seniors per week in my line work. Believe me they will know who not to go to for dental work.
While a snowbird in Florida last week I broke a tooth. Dr. Smolinski was able to see me the next day! The tooth could not be saved, so she made the time to extract it, do a bone graft, and also fill a cavity on the next tooth over. She was extremely professional, explained everything in advance very carefully including various options, how each would affect the outcome, and what pricing would be entailed. She was very gentle and careful to make sure I had no pain during the lengthy procedure I needed. I was very impressed with her friendliness and skill. I would highly recommend her to anyone.
