Editorial review from Citysearch 1/3/2013

The worst treatment of my life!!!!\r no respect with schedule and NO RESPECT with price....\r she cancelled in the last minute or she was 30-45 min late.\r they gave me a price... during the treatment it changed to 1500 plus! and in the end I had to pay 600 dollars more!!!! a\r she wanted to do a rough canal but I'm not sure if it was necessary.... and as I was still feeling pain she wanted to do another one... I went to another dentist and he just adjusted my bite and that was the problem....\r so think twice before go in this lady.... I regret all the money that I had to pay... more

Despite how pretty the waiting room 6/11/2012

Despite how pretty the waiting room looks, BEWARE of high pressure sales tactics, billing discrepencies, misinformation, unwanted work done while you are in the chair for something completely different, a different staff everytime you visit, etc. etc. VIVA SMILES and Dr. Gomes are a SCAM! RUN AWAY, QUICKLY!!! more

Please beware of Dr. Ruth Gomes. I 5/31/2012

Please beware of Dr. Ruth Gomes. I spent two years in her care but had to find another oral surgeon to remove and replace her work. I spent thousands in insurance and out of pocket. Review all public records, ask other dentists what they know of her. I tried to put a review on her web site but couldn't. All you will see are the gloating reviews and not the ones that seem to give rise to reasonable concerns a patient should see. If I could give zero stars, I would... more

I would caution anyone against doing business here. 1/20/2012

I signed a financial agreement with this office for planned work, which I was told could be cancelled at anytime. I asked to cancel, and asked them to refund only the unused portion of the money to the finance company so I wouldn't have to make payments on services I didn't receive. The finance company just needs a fax from the dental office, but its been months and they haven't returned the unused money. The standard business practice is to return the unused portion, and the finance company has confirmed this, but Viva Smiles is not returning the unused money. It's quite a lot of money. All of my requests have been made courteously, I wouldn't recommend this business to anyone. If I could rate it with a negative 5 stars, I would have done that. more

I am not satisfied with their service 11/12/2010

I did not get the quality of services they claimed. Be careful, they are good at advertising rather than services. If you don't have a super insurance, don't go there. more

My Favorite Dentist. 3/12/2010

Everybody who has tended to me did so in such a fashion, that I have zero concerns or complaints. Going to the dentist has never been high on my list of things that I like to do, but so far, my visits have truly been relatively stress free. Thank you VIVA SMILES Pros: Dentists who really care, nice assistants. Cons: This isn't the most efficient office. more

Very impressive. 2/22/2010

I was very impressed with the quality of service I received. It was more thorough than what my regular physician would ask. The staff was outstanding in every way. Pros: Great work Cons: They are booked pretty far out...but it's worth it. more

Outstanding service! 2/16/2010

The staff provided me with outstanding service from the time I walked in to the time I walked out. I?ve been from one dentist to the next trying to get help with my issues with TMJ and this experience alone has been the best. I immediately started telling my friends to come there from now on. I loved it! more

Outrageously expensive and hidden costs 1/22/2010

My children have TWO dental insurance policies, I have paid hundreds if not over 1000$ in ""copay"" to have cleanings, a few fillings and 2 crowns done, but because the incompent billing department didn't bill the insurance companies properly and timely, they sent me a bill, totally out of the blue with NO prior discussion saying I owed them over $3000! Pros: fabulous massage chairs, good work Cons: misleading about costs and wait 2 years to bill more

My new dentist 10/23/2009

I went to this dentist recently and loved it! I haven't been to the dentist in years and finally decided it was time. I tried Dr. O'Brien and will never go anywhere else again! He was fast and did an excellent job. He also put me at ease and didn't make any cracks when my 6'6 260 lb. body hung over the dental chair. Thank you!!! Pros: Kind, FAST more

Very Professional 9/14/2009

I really loved my dental hygienst. She explained everything to me in detail and even included pictures. I am so amazed with the care I received. She really took the fear out of going to the dentist. Everyone was so professional and provided me with outstanding service. Well Done! more
