Dr. Minert and his team are amazing. From cleaning teeth to doing crowns, you feel like you're the most important person there. I love Christian music and they can turn on Christian music for the room you are in, so Mercy Me was my friend in the room!

My wife worked for a office in Caldwell for 30 years before this corporation bought it when Dr Clendenon owned it. These dentists are a corporation that owns 4 practices and brings in Dentists straight out of school with no experience at all. They are all about money. Dr. Minert was my Dentist at the time. He did Invisaline on my teeth and a bridge. That was full price because we had insurance so my wife wasn't able to take advantage of the discount for dental because she stayed working for them for a year. Dr.Minert when doing my bridge while still in ivisaline (braces) he took a xray of the bridge to see if it was okay,but failed to tell me the two top teeth that had cavities. It was a bite wing he took that shows all upper and lower teeth. Even though I was paying cash for all appointments over 7000.00. But never told me I had cavities on the upper teeth that he clearly if was a good dentist would see them. As a dentist you don't see just the bottom of a xray but the whole. Bite wing xray that shows upper and lower. Needless to say I had one tooth removed and maybe another removed from his negligence 5 months later. Don't ever go to any of the offices. They are a scam and only care about money not your well being. I asked him to reimburse me and nothing at all. He is unprofessional at all costs! Not to mention he charged me 500.00 for final Invisiline trays one month before having to loose two teeth and can't be used. He said he would reimburse me and make it right for the cost of the extractions at another office and the cost for the trays but never got a check or any a apology at all. Then dismissed me from the practice when asking to make it right. Sending a review to to the board also!

Went to this dentist based on reviews, At the my appointment I was met by "Hanna" the dental hygienist. After taking me on a tour of the practice (nice) we went into her room. "Hanna" explained what she was going to do and what to expect. I immediately asked if everything was going to be covered by my insurance? She replied "don't worry, we will bill your insurance company for you." Not what I asked! After taking my dental x-rays she told me now I am "going to do a 3-D of my mouth." I again asked if this procedure was covered by my insurance and again "Hanna" said "it should be, we do them all the time." Afterwards the dentist came in and reviewed the x-ray and 3-D images with me. He asked what brought me in today and I responded "a check-up and a cleaning." I also mentioned some "food traps" by my left side molars. My medical history included Squamous Cell Cancer of my throat which included a total radical neck and radiation therapy. Due to the radiation, there was integrity loss of my tissue which added to the "food traps". He pointed out a small cavity on a right molar, but never suggested I schedule a follow-up to take care of it. He did mention I should consider having my "silver fillings" replaced with composite material. He then asked the hygienist how my exam was going and was informed she had just started it. She then proceeded to measure the depth of my gums which was "6-5-6" back towards my molars and points to periodontitis. She said she was going to talk to the dentist as she was "on the fence" about doing a regular cleaning. After a few minutes she returned and said she and the dentist agreed on a "deep cleaning" which would include anesthetics (e.g. lidocaine). I told her that I have had cleaning without anesthetics and we can proceed. She commented "I only have 17 minutes left on this appointment" and that she would have to reschedule me. She was informed that I was leaving on Thursday (7/21/23) morning and would not retuning until the end of September. She brought the dentist in, and I explained that I only wanted a basic cleaning and my timeframe did not allow me to reschedule. "Hanna" then asked me if I would be willing to go another office location which was "5 minutes away" as they said they could fit me in for my cleaning. Upon agreeing i stopped by the "check out desk" and asked what I owned and she responded "we will bill your insurance company." With in 5 minutes I was at the other office and informed them I was sent to have my teeth cleaned. With in a few minutes I was brought back my a hygienist. She informed my that she only 90 mins to do my cleaning. When I asked why she said "deep cleaning" normally takes two visits. When I asked if my insurance it covered it and how much out of pocket it was going to cost me? She told me to hang on and left the room. She returned shortly with another lady who explained that the cost was about $1,000. She stated that they bill in "quadrants" and that it costs $259 per quadrant. When I asked how much my insurance would cover "she said I don't know" and when I asked how my out of pocket it was going to cost. She immediately stated "If you are going to be rude than you can leave." WHICH I DID. Upon reaching my house I called my insurance company and asked some questions: 1) the 3-D films ARE NOT considered basic services and therefore ARE NOT COVERED. 2) the dental clinic should have put in a pre-authorization for the "deep cleaning" and they would have known my out-of-pocket expenses. Interestingly, a line from Ted Lasso is one that people should be aware of; he points out that people often make assumptions about other people and nobody asks what they do. You see, I had spent 36 years in Emergency Medicine as a Physician Assistant (PA) as a practitioner and educator. Additional I have a PhD in Psychology. My career introduced me to a young lady 35 years ago working as an ER Tech who is now a CEO of a Health System and my wife. A formal complaint of ethics and providing false information for financial gain to the State.

I was the type of patient that needed to have a blue chill pill to have my teeth cleaned!!!! I needed some bridge work and Boise dentistry was recommended and I can tell everyone that needs dental work to go to him as he is a gentle giant and his staff is like a family and treat you that way. Just awesome!!!
