This is a review of my first visit. I went to get my teeth cleaned and also take a look at a toothache. I decided to go here b/c of the Yelp reviews. Teeth cleaning, check up, x-rays - Only a flat $99! Sometimes when you go to a dentist, you don't really know how much they're going to charge and I was really grateful that I knew it was just a flat $99 for a checkup and not a bunch of additional small charges I have to worry about. I had two problems: 1) Tooth ache - I have some really large fillings on a molar and because they're so close to the nerve, every time I drink cold water, it hurts. I could get a root canal to get rid of the pain or he says, I can just bear it out since nothing is wrong with that tooth i.e. no root infect, no cavities. 2) Cavities under an old crown where I already had a root canal a long time ago. To fix those cavities I'd have to get a new crown (geez) since they'd have to remove the crown to get to the cavities. Dr. Le was really nice about everything. Thomas L. is right about him not trying to make money off of you. He told me the various options I had and didn't try to sell me on anything. After paying, they give you a sheet with your future treatment plans with the prices. Prices for Top of the Line Crowns: 1. Root canal & crown: $800 + $800 = $1600 2. Crown: $800 Later over the phone, I asked for some price alternatives and he told me about silver colored crowns that are $200 cheaper and also an alternative second-best porcelain crown that would be $50 cheaper.
