I've used Dr.Eckel for several years now, and until I needed something more complex, I was pleased with the service I received. He was always just fine, but his team was very friendly, and my hygienist always did a great job. However, I needed a new crown for a dental implant. Dr.Eckel looked at it and said it was a "slam dunk." But unfortunately, that was not the case. After two months, four office visits, missed work, and a pile of (refunded) cash, I left - literally - without a front tooth. On the first visit, I mentioned that I wished my teeth were a bit whiter. He said he would make the new crown a few shades whiter and that I could whiten my teeth at home while the crown was being produced. This made sense at the time, but I later discovered that the correct procedure is to whiten first and then pick out the color after whitening. Additionally, he was not particularly confident in his color selection. He kept asking what I thought, and it felt like he pushed the decision onto me. I do not work in dentistry and have little experience picking out tooth color. It felt like this decision required his expertise, and so I was a bit uncomfortable providing the amount of feedback/direction he required. This should have been a red flag... The day I was scheduled to go back to have the crown placed, they called me several hours before my appointment to tell me that it was delayed and that they needed to reschedule. I had taken paid time off from work for this appointment, and while I understand things happen, a bit of notice would have been nice so I could have gone to work/made money. When he put the first tooth in, the color was way off. It looked grey. To keep a long story short, he attempted this two more times. He was very uncomfortable/unsure which color to pick each time. Meanwhile, I secured the crown in my mouth with Polydent throughout this two-month process. This was annoying as I had to remove the tooth every time I ate and at night. I later learned that this is far from best practice. At this point, another major red flag I should have paid attention to.. He said the temporary glue did not hold because he had to file down my abutment (the implanted post that the crown is glued to) and that he might have shaved down too much... and that I might need a new one, but that he would "just have to see." He put the tooth in my mouth on the final visit and hesitated for 10-15 seconds. Finally, he handed me the mirror and asked what I thought. It was laughable how wrong the color was. I did not answer the question but instead redirected it to him. He confirmed the obvious - they did not match. At this point, I could not be without a front tooth for another two weeks to roll the dice on him, getting it right or wrong. I politely asked if maybe this tooth required more color matching skill than he was capable of. He quickly offered me a refund and sent me on my way. I appreciate the refund, but it seems like maybe he knew from the start that he could not match the color. Ultimately, if he had just admitted this earlier on, he could have saved us both the hassle. Unfortunately, I will not be able to recover/reuse the insurance-covered potion of this (they cover one crown every five years.) I called the local surgeon who did my implant surgery 15 years ago, and he recommended a cosmetic dentist in mid-town. I called the office, explained my story, and they squeezed me in the same day. His lab sends a tech with paint/stain and a setting oven on the day of placement to get the color just right (despite Dr.Eckel's repeated instance that there was no such thing as a "perfect match." Finally, I will need a new abutment, adding additional cost and time to this saga. This is a significant and unnecessary expense. Ultimately, this was no "slam dunk." Green Hills Smiles is fine if you need a quick cavity filled or a cleaning. However, anything of significance, I would highly recommend finding someone more capable.

Dr Eckel is the best. We followed him from a previous practice in Cool Springs, largely because of his personal dedication to doing great dental work. I could go to most any dentist in the Nashville area.. I chose to go to Dr Echel.

My wife and I needed a new dentist after moving to the area recently, and we had a great experience at our first visit. Extremely comfortable atmosphere with a very polite and pleasant staff.

Let me just start with I have horrible teeth so I know what I'm talking about. I'm 24 and have had 9 cavities, two root canals, two crowns and a bonding. I came here because a different dentist was fully taking advantage of my bad teeth. This place is amazing! I have been so relaxed I have almost fallen asleep on two different visits. This is an honest place that does the job well. Zero stress, fully recommend.

Being new to the Nashville area, I was fortunate to receive a recommendation for a great Dentist and Dental Practice...GREEN HILLS SMILES ... Dr Greg Eckel. From the time I entered the office and was greeted by Hanna, the Office Manager, had my visit with Dr Eckel and dental cleaning by Heather, I knew I made the right decision in finding a new Dental Practice. They are professional, personable and have a State-of-the Art Office. I was impressed; and, you will be too if you elect to be their patient. I am pleased to recommend them
