Busdiecker, Todd S, Dds - Beckett Ridge Oral Enhancement

Todd has sold his practice to a female dentist. They will loot you. Beware and take 1000 dollars for cleaning even with insaurance more

I went to Dr. Busdieker after I found him on my dental insurance website because I am new to the area. I made an appointment for a cleaning and x-ray. I have always had really good dental hygiene and have had great experiences with other dentists. It started off okay, the receptionists are nice and welcoming. When I went back it started with the x-rays and then the cleaning; all of that went alright except the hygienist was far from gentle. She showed me pictures of my teeth and said, ""see these cracks and wear? That's from clenching and grinding your teeth."" I told her that I don't do that and she continued to say that I do and suggested that I buy a mouth guard. The dentist came and looked at my teeth for maybe one minute told me that I needed a root canal on one of my teeth (I have no cavities or fillings so how I would have gotten an infection in my tooth is very questionable to me) he also suggested a mouth guard to wear at night from my ""grinding"" problem. They suggested I schedule the appointment for the root canal in their office straight away. I didn't. I went to an endodontist (specialist for root canals and such) and he did tests on the tooth and an x-ray and said that there is absolutely no reason to do a root canal in a perfectly healthy tooth. He also told me that small cracks in the teeth are normal and that everyone has those so he doubts that I have a grinding/ clenching problem. My personal opinion is that maybe Dr. Busdieker wanted the $$ attached to selling me a mouthguard and doing two procedures on a healthy tooth. I will never be seeing him again. more

I can't say enough good things about Dr. Busdiecker. He is the most patient, kind, dentist I've ever encountered. I've been going to him for years. I'm phobic about lying there in the chair unable to move with strange, and possibly painful or sickening procedures going on and he and his staff make me feel completely at ease and comfortable, as is possible, through the whole thing. Thank you, Dr. Busdiecker, for making a necessary evil bearable for me! Cons: I wish the office were closer to me. more

My family moved a lot when I was growing up, so I've been to a fair number of dentists. Without question, Dr. Busdiecker's office is the best I've ever visited. The comfortable environment (calming music, neat fish tanks, tasteful decorations) and truly incredible staff make it as pleasant as one could hope for when getting dental work done. Dr. Busdiecker is friendly, thorough and skilled, and he's not one to push unnecessary services on his customers. The staff clearly explained procedures and options in a way that made me feel comfortable with the services they recommended. I've gotten my regular cleanings done there, as well as several cavity fillings and a crown. When I cracked my tooth, they got me in right away for an emergency visit. When I had to get a crown for that tooth, they explained the pros and cons (cost, wear, aesthetics, effect on the procedure) of the different materials they could use to create the crown. They seem to work hard to minimize pain, maximize customer service and educate patients. \r \r If you're new to the area or even just not totally satisfied with your current dentist, I highly recommend going to Beckett Ridge Oral Enhancement. Pros: friendly staff, gentle, knowledgeable, great ambience, no pressure, early morning appts Cons: none! more
