Fair Lakes Dental

by Neet Citysearch Going to the dentist used to be a chore, but since I switched to Dr. Dehyar I look forward to every visit. Dr. Dehyar and each member of his well chosen staff have created a relaxed and friendly ambience that makes me feel welcome each time I enter the office. With the use of his state of the art equipment and interesting mix of music, each cleaning and procedure has been painless and pleasant. Dr. Dehyar is not only an excellent dentist but also the most patient and considerate person I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with, which is remarkable considering the fact that I am a dentist's worst nightmare! Dr. Dehyar installed a beautiful set of veneers on my top teeth and he made a night guard for me to wear because I grind my teeth while asleep. Not only did I ignore his advice to wear the night guard, but in addition I did several stupid things with my teeth that knocked off or broke veneers. I was embarrassed to go back to Dr. Dehyar to tell him what I had done, but each time (yes, it took me a while to learn my lesson) he patiently listened to my admission of guilt without reprimand or judgment, and then worked his magic to give me back my beautiful smile. On one occasion I knocked the veneer off my front tooth the day before I had to attend a wedding. In a panic I called Dr. Dehyar’s office, and even though he was not seeing patients that day, he told me to come right in and he fixed my tooth. Once more, he gently reminded me about the importance of using my night guard, and instructed me on the proper care of my beautiful veneers. Since that time I have listened to his advice and my teeth and gums have never been as healthy and perfect as they now are! more

After getting fed up with my dentist's old equipment, questionable advice, and overpriced estimates, I decided to start asking around for alternatives. It turns out in the same building as my well-intended but dreadful dentist was Dr. Dehyar's office. Walking in for the first time was like a huge breath of fresh air -- not only is everything in the waiting area clean, new, and up to date, once taken to the back the high standards are even raised a notch. I kicked myself for sticking with the unsatisfying visits of my previous dentist (I shouldn't have to ask my new dentist to *please* take x-rays when I know I haven't had them taken in a couple years. And then why oh why did I stick with that office when they still use literal films to take x-rays a la 1985, attempt conversations with you while you've got 4 instruments in your mouth because they don't have TVs, and then ask for exorbitant rates for uncovered treatments!? Just no.) Dr. Dehyar’s office has state-of -the-art equipment, they offer you DVDs to watch while you are getting a cleaning so you don't have to sit through a one-way conversation, they show you immediately and exactly what they are looking at on your digital x-rays so you know they aren't scamming you, and they addressed my concerns adequately, aka with actual medical reasoning, rather than a shrug and a "it'll probably go away." And their estimate for my night guard was a full $200 less than that other guy's, and I now have a pain-free jaw again. It's hard to argue with that. more
