Midwest Dental - General dentist in Saint Louis, MO

Summer is the time for outdoor sports and you can protect your teeth, cheeks, gums and lips with a low-cost mouth guard. It could save you from a knocked out or chipped tooth, and it will prevent you from grinding your teeth during the big game.

No really, just dont. Weve all seen someone open a bottle with their teeth. An amazing feat? Nope, but a great way to cause micro fractures in your teeth. Using your teeth to rip open potato chip bags or to crush ice are also no nos.

The short answer is no. You most likely cannot sunburn your teeth. Shwew! Your lips on the other hand can sunburn. In fact, your lips might be the most susceptible to sunburn. Its important not to rely on regular sunscreen to protect your lips, choose a lip balm with a minimum of SPF 15. It is designed for your lips, and it will stick better. And just like with sunscreen, remember to reapply it every couple hours.

There are lots of reasons to smile all summer long. Evidence suggests that smiling reduces stress and helps your heart. So show those teeth! Brush twice a day, floss daily and smile big. You'll feel better when you do.

Definitely a brand new dentist, with very little experience. Would not go back.

My family has been going to Smile Station/Midwest Dental for over 18 years. I never thought I could adore a dentist more than Dr. Emery, but Dr. Kodesia is even better. I have had some pretty extreme work done recently and Dr. Kodesia picked right up where Dr. Emery left off and with even better results. Emma and Q (staff) are a joy and I look forward to seeing them. They remember my anxiety about dental work and always make me feel comfortable. The front desk staff and back end office staff are equally as inviting. I guarantee there are extenuating circumstances in the couple of negative reviews. I have never seen them show any negative behavior.

I have had numerous negative encounters with the staff of Midwest Dental and since the new dentist has taken over the practice. The dentist and the staff working in the treatment area were fantastic....but the office staff behind the counter...HORRIBLE! This includes the office manager who is less than desired! I was told an amount for a crown and then after I received the crown I received a bill for over $700! I was told a price and I had paid that up front. The office staff told me that insurance didn't pay as much as they thought....this is supposed to be verified BEFORE the treatment! Secondly, I was brought in for a filling due to a cracked tooth and I was also getting fitted for a bite guard. I was told a price and received a print out of my treatment plan. I spoke with the person behind the counter on the day I was scheduling to have the procedure and she told me that I could have the total added to my already large bill and payment plan from their FIRST mistake. I am on a monthly plan with them for $50 a month, which I pay more if I am able. On the date of service the office manager checked me out and said here is the total. The total was around $500 and she expected me to pay for it right there! I told her I was on a payment plan due to the other mistake they made and that I was told this amount could be added to it. She tells me that is not correct and they want payment on the date of service. WOW! Get your facts straight! I do not have over $500 to just hand you. She said, "well I have to get paid too"! Not ok! I have ALWAYS paid my bills on time and will pay the $50 or more a month. She then gave me until September to have it paid off. I told her again that I will pay at least $50/month but I could not set up the payment plan for more. She gave me a nasty look and mumbled something under her breath. The office manager needs to learn compassion and how to speak to clients. She is unprofessional and should not be allowed to interact with clients. I WILL NOT recommend ANYONE go there! They love to upcharge for services AFTER they have been completed. FYI...they have a high review due to Dr. Emery who was wonderful! He has since left the practice.

I'm the world's biggest baby when it comes to dental work. But Dr. Kodesia and her staff are fabulous! She is so caring and gentle. She constantly asks me if I'm doing ok. And she does great work too. The entire staff is very nice, thoughtful and helpful. I'm very pleased with this Midwest Dental office.

Such a great dental experience. From cleaning to filling it was pain free and easy. As an anxious dentist goer I truly recommend them!!!

Although I have not been a patient of Dr. Kodesia for very long, I have had to go in multiple times in the last two months for a few different issues. I have been so pleased with her kind nature and attention to detail; her concern for my well-being and in alleviating my pain has been wonderful. Not only does she do an excellent job, but so does her staff. One person mentioned to me how much she enjoys working with Dr. Kodesia, and it's evident in the fact that this is a pretty terrific team with great energy. I'm thrilled with the care and service I'm receiving from this office!

High quality dental care, with dentist consistently asking if I was okay during procedure (I was although she responded to me just taking deep breaths) and checking in with assistant on appropriateness of color of filing resin being used. All staff including dentist very very courteous throughout. Appointment started on time.

I was able to get a convenient appointment that worked with my busy schedule. The office hours and front desk were very understanding. I was overdue for a cleaning and check-up and the hygienist and dentist didn't make feel guilty about it. I was anxious about going in, but the dental team made me feel so comfortable and relaxed. The hygienist was very friendly and so gentle! Dr. Kodesia was very knowledgeable and caring - she answered all of my questions and was very personable. She made me feel well cared for! The office was very clean and up-to-date. I really liked the floor-to-ceiling windows in the rooms! I will definitely be going back for my dental care! Great experience!

Really had a great experience with Dr. Kodesia and team today. Everyone was really easy going and really made a dentist experience enjoyable (I even laughed a few times). The whole staff kept me informed and updated on everything that was going on and made sure I understood next steps. They were very transparent on pricing so there were no surprises at the end of the visit.

Everyone was extremely friendly, professional, and respectful of your time. They explained what they were doing and how they were going to do it. They made you feel relaxed while they were doing their job. Jessica, my dental hygienist, was very friendly and efficient. She took all of the X-rays in a timely manner and then was very efficient and gentle while doing an excellent job of cleaning my teeth. When Dr. Kodedesia came in to exam my teeth after the cleaning she was very friendly and professional. She did a very thorough job of examining the gums and teeth. She made a couple of excellent observations and recommendations to improve my overall oral health. After I was finished the Office manager explained the bill and what some of the recommendations would cost in the future. As I don't have dental insurance she was able to suggest a dental insurance policy to help cover some future cost. HIGHLY recommend this office and a BIG thank you to the excellent staff for a stess free visit!
