Overall Experience
Gentle Dental Associates seems to have a mixed bag of reviews. While some customers have had positive experiences, others have had disappointing and even traumatic experiences.
Positive Reviews
Several reviewers have praised the friendly and professional staff, stating that they are all very caring and first-rate when it comes to knowledge, skills, and abilities. Many have also mentioned that the dentists are very nice, gentle, and thorough, making them feel comfortable and confident during appointments. Some even reported having had excellent experiences with specific dentists, such as Dr. Hwang and Dr. Ron Lechner.
Negative Reviews
On the other hand, two reviewers have had very negative experiences. One reviewer's child was over-sedated with nitrous and had to be taken to the ER, and another reviewer had a painful routine cleaning due to rough handling by a dental hygienist.
Handling of Appointments
Some reviewers have expressed frustration with the handling of appointments at Gentle Dental. One reviewer tried to reschedule an appointment multiple times but was unable to get through to someone.
Recommendations
Despite the mixed reviews, many customers overall seem to have positive experiences with Gentle Dental and would recommend them. However, it's clear that there are some flaws in the way the office handles appointments and patient care.
