I HATE THE DENTIST. I have had dentists who practiced without a license, slapped me across the face for complaining about pain, lied about costs, hurt me repeatedly, tried to sell me stuff I didn't want or need, and molested children. (That last is no lie). Needless to say, it takes a lot to get me to the dentist, a lot of pain that is. I usually don't go for regular cleanings, only showing up when a cavity or wisdom tooth is bothering me too much for Advil to take care of. This year I promised myself to care more about dental health and actually use the dental benefit I've been paying for all these years, and went for a cleaning at the Dental Salon. I had four cavities. I was not surprised, it has been years since my last cleaning, but I was dreading the follow-up appointment. I had nightmares, heard the sound of the drill in my sleep, and almost didn't make the appointment. My Dentist worked fast, kept the mood light, and didn't even give me any Novocaine. He said the shot would freak me out worse than the drilling (he was right). I was done in 15 minutes and out the door. Fast, friendly, and efficient. Kudos to the Dental Salon, their Dentists, Dental Assistants, and office staff. All were professional, courteous, and took my fears and apprehensions seriously. If you like the Dentist - you'll love them, if you don't like the Dentist - give these folks a try, you won't be sorry.
Pros: Clean, contemporary office suite, easy parking or access from the Red Line
Cons: The are Dentists
