That may sound young, but its never too early to start thinking about your childs oral health. More than 40% of kindergarten-age children suffer from tooth decay. Its even more common than asthma or hay fever. In fact, despite being largely preventable, tooth decay is one of the most widespread chronic childhood diseases in America, and is the number 1 cause for missed time from school. Healthy primary teeth or baby teeth is vital for proper chewing and establishing proper alignment of the adult teeth coming in correctly. Early loss of primary/baby teeth due to decay and infection will compromise your child's bite, alignment, and formation of their adult teeth.
Not sure how to care for your childs teeth? Stop by our office and ask. Were happy to help guide you on the day-to-day care for their age. Introducing them to proper oral health early will help them form good habits, get them accustomed to daily oral care and regular dental visits, and give them a healthier smile that will last a lifetime.

I have had a lot of work done at Parc Center Dental. I thought they were great until the Dental assistant Sonja significantly chipped my upper center rt tooth creating a half circle chip on the lower portion of the tooth, while trying to unsuccessfuly remove a lower right temporary cap. She said nothing and walked out of the room. I went out to the front desk and showed the chipped tooth to Cindy. She said "Show Dr. Nadi". I went back into the exam room. Ten minutes later Dr. Nadi came in and said "OH, I CAN FIX THAT." He filed the chipped tooth down without consulting with me and then filed the front left tooth down to try and match the other tooth. After numerous consults, Dr Nadi suggested to fix the damage by veneering the 2 teeth as they are shorter then what they were, not consistent in size, and are very sensative. He also suggested to cap the teeth on either side as they do not perfectly align with the two front teeth. He said. "It would not look right to just veneer the two front teeth". After many consults he agreed to not charge me for veneering the two teeth. I agreed to pay $1,000 to cap the other two teeth. I scheduled an appointment to begin the work. At the appointment he said that he did not file down the front left tooth and that my teeth on either side had recently shifted. He refused to fix the problem. IT SEEMS THAT WE NOW LIVE IN A TIME THAT MANY PEOPLE THINK IT IS OK TO JUST LIE ABOUT IT, AS MONEY SEEMS TO BE WORTH MORE THEN ONE'S INTEGRITY.

They perform more services than the insurance covers, then when you're leaving they say there is no charge, but then they send you a bill for the services not covered by insurance. Make sure you know what procedures are being performed and if they are covered by your insurance before they start.

I have never had such a bad experience with a dentist in my life. The technician tortured me with X-rays until I had dry heaves and couldn't continue with them after 12. The dentist said my teeth were fine and schedule a cleaning. The manager said I owed nothing more and gave me a cleaning appointment for 3 months later. Then they billed me for most of the Xrays claiming they didn't do enough Xrays for the insurance to cover it. Do not patronize this office.

For many years, my husband and I have received exceptional dental care provided by each dentist and hygienist at Parc Center Dental Group. We are forever grateful to them for their patience, care and excellence. Deborah and Martin Stone

My experience with this office was one of a hustle. I chose this office because unfortunately it was the only location accepting my Dental insurance. I was entitled to a free cleaning with my insurance, so I made an appointment for a cleaning. I arrived to immediate X Rays, unlike any Dental practice I've been to in the past. I have good teeth, my brother is a Dentist in a different state, I know how this works. Dr did his check and I was immediately brought to an Administrator. Go figure, all of a sudden my perfect mouth needs a "deep tissue cleaning" not covered by insurance. I knew immediately I was being hustled in the very same way they handled my wife a few months prior. If you can't provide a professional, dignified service by accepting insurance plans...don't do it. I can only assume you're pushing deep tissue with every insured client whether or not it's needed. This review does not reflect the actual staff providing services, rather Administrative policies to grab whatever you can from whomever you can. It's so obvious, I can't believe I'm the first reviewer of the hustle.

My dentist retired about 2 yrs ago and I've been really nervous about finding a new place. A place with kind people and a dentist that wouldn't hurt me or try to sell me on a bunch of dental work. Well! I found it! The Dentist is very kind and did a great job...no pain at all and the ladies are sweet.
