Review content:
I have the worst dental insurance on the planet. My ""plan"" dentists include an elderly man who yelled at me in Bulgarian until finally the janitor stepped in and convinced him I only spoke English (then he yelled at me for that), and a basement office with visible dirt on the floor and equipment, including flecks of blood and spit from the previous patient in the sink ... or maybe the previous year's worth of patients...I was so traumatized, I paid over $4,000 in cash for dental work this summer, because I figured no decent dentists would join my dental HMO. Then, out of money and having cancelled the family vacation to fund a root canal, I searched again, widening the zip code range. IMAGINE MY JOY when I entered the sleek, professional, up to date, modern, exceptionally clean, friendly, compassionate, affordable confines of the Dental Salon. I am still reeling from the shock that they actually honor my plan, and I have already had the pleasure of some excellent, painless new dental work and a very affordable whitening scheduled for next month. Parking is tricky, but there's a paid lot for the building. Seriously... even if you are far from the neighborhood, it is worth the trip. They will also individualize your treatment based on whether you have specific fears or preferences, and they have very accessible financing options if you don't have insurance. It's a collaborative and respectful practice... and it's also MERCURY FREE, which even today is still hard to find in this area. Visiting the Dental Salon feels more like a trip to a down to earth, welcoming, non-snobby luxury spa.
Pros: everything
Cons: parking
