A year ago I decided to stop going to my previous dentist, as my insurance policy had changed and my coverage was no good there, so I switched to Able Dental, on the advice of my ex wife who has been bringing my kids there for a while. While the hygenist and Dentist are perfectly friendly nice people, they are also running the world's oldest dental scam. I take good care of my teeth, I don't often have major issues. So you can imagine my surprise when they told me I had 9 cavities. I was shocked, but thought maybe that my old dentist was just lazy or something. So I allowed them to drill the two worst, being the only ones I could afford at the moment. Whatever they did, they did very roughly and my jaw hurt for a good month afterwards. I'm not one of those people to freak out about dental work, but this was awful. I decided not to go back to them, and found another dentist instead. I had my first appointment with them last night, and guess what? No cavities! Either those 7 untreated cavities healed themselves (its a miracle!) or he was LYING about my cavities to get money! I'm beginning to wonder if the expanders Able dental fitted my daughter for a few years ago was also unnecessary. I'm going to assume they weren't because the implication that Dr. Cris made my 8 year old daughter deal with uncomfortable expanders for over a year just to make money is too sick for me to contemplate. I urge anyone going to Dr. Cris to find another dentist quickly.
I have been going to Able Dental for about 5 years now and have always received exceptional care. I am one who used to have a huge fear of the dentist because of prior bad experiences. When I explained this fear to Dr. Chris he completely understood and I have never felt any pain during a procedure and I have had 2 or 3 root canals. Dr. Chris has always treated me like a person and not just a mouth he needs to fix. Dr. Chris has always explained the reasons for his procedures and gives the possible outcomes while being very honest. The dental assistant's, hygienist, and receptionist's are very professional and friendly. The front office always greets you with a smile and acknowledges you right away when coming to an appointment. Able dental is very flexible, just recently I had a very painful tooth and they fit me in the same day and started a root canal so I could have relief of pain. They not only fit me in that day but made sure I had appointments the next 2 days to finish the root canal. The office is very clean and modern. I would highly recommend Able Dental.
