TAMPA, Fla. (October 13, 2020) Coast Dental & Orthodontics is notifying patients about a data theft investigation. The information stolen involves certain patients who received care at the Coast Dental offices in Conyers and North Druid Hills in Georgia.
During the night of August 6, 2020 into August 7, 2020, a locked moving truck containing equipment and patient records was stolen from a parking lot in Atlanta, Georgia. The police recovered the truck on or about August 8, 2020 and the truck was secured by the police and placed in an impound lot. Coast Dental placed a lock on the truck while it was in the secured impound lot until the truck could be moved from impound. On August 25, 2020, Coast Dental recovered access and possession of the truck and the items inside the truck. Coast Dental secured the contents and transferred the property to its facility in Florida. From approximately August 26 through August 28, 2020, the contents were inventoried, and upon a full investigation, it was discovered that among other equipment and property, approximately 1,700 patient records containing patient information were compromised or missing.
In an abundance of caution, on October 13, 2020, Coast started mailing letters to affected patients, notifying them of this incident and also offering access to credit monitoring services at no cost to those whose social security numbers may have been compromised. Patients whose information was involved are advised to follow the instructions in the letter to protect their data.
Patients who believe they may be affected by this incident may call (855) 252-2731 Monday - Friday between 9 a.m. and 11 p.m., and Saturday - Sunday between 11 a.m. and 8 p.m. EST., excluding major U.S. holidays.

Let me start by saying that in my nightmares, the Devil always wears a Dentist coat. I've had a lot of bad luck with dentists that I will not get into. Recently I was facing a major decision regarding my teeth. I made an appointment with Dr.Gordon and everything went smooth the first visit. They did all the x-rays, cleaned teeth and then Dr.Gordon came in, did his exam and explained to me the options I had. He answered every question I had and put me at ease, helping me make my choice easier. Well the day came and I had to get a lot of teeth extracted. He took the time to make sure I was numb and told me when I would feel pressure, etc. He kept reassuring me and kept the mood light despite my anxiety and fear. When we moved to the last two teeth to go, they were "hot", meaning very infected and the root was not getting novacaine. No matter how much novacaine I got, when he tried to pull the tooth it hurt bad. Most dentists would leave you in pain to make an appointment with an oral surgeon, not Dr.Gordon. He drilled to the root (yes it hurt for a second or two) and then injected the root directly (hurt like hell for two seconds). After that he was able to pop them out. He is the only dentist I will ever go to. His staff cleaned me up, made sure I understood the aftercare directions and provided me with what I needed till the next day (follow up appointment 24hrs later). What I went through was not easy, but Dr.Gordon made it 99.5% pain free. I've never even liked a dentist before, I love this man. He is a true professional of his craft and he cares about his patients.

I went there for a tootache they numb me and then asked me for $65 of which I did not have - they told me they couldn't fix my tooth to come back when I have $65 and the novacaine would reside in a few hours.

The worst dentist in town! Every filling I've had done by Dr. Gordon cracked and had to be replace within 3 years (yes I take care of my teeth and brush 2 times a day). The hygienist I saw recently was rude, barely spoke a word to me and was nasty. They told me since I was (admittedly 15 minutes) late for my 3:30 appointment they couldn't do anything for me and she got my chart at 4:45. I checked the time when I left and it was 4:23 (includes waiting room time and sitting in the dental chair). Unless that woman had a time machine or was psychic she was very wrong. Also the dentist was with another patient so he wouldn't have been working on me at the time. They try to gouge the price of everything they do! Dr. Gordon told me I needed braces at the age of 22. He was the only dentist I've ever seen who thought so. They are trying to take as much money as they can from patients. Do NOT go here if you value your teeth and sanity.
