Generally does a great job with my teeth and I have had a lot of reasons to have my teeth worked on. It is a rather expensive practice. The only thing I would complain about is their billing practices. They will give you a estimate for work that needs to be done...sometimes but not all the time. They expect you to pay up front what they estimate your insurance won't pay but only sometimes do you get an itemization. Much of the time it is just a credit card receipt for your share. If they have to bill you, the bill is almost unintelligible. If they overcharge you, it takes them months to figure it out. I have complained about this but to no avail. Sometimes I swear I will find another dentist but I like the quality of the service and work they do here.

The office itself is nice enough but it's big, impersonal and everyone seems to be in a hurry. I rarely saw the same dental hygienist twice and Dr. Tabb rushes from one patient to another. She always seems to find something wrong and reasons to boost the bill. After going there for about a year and spending a fortune, I had enough. Avoid.

There are several options to lighten your not-so-pearly whites. Some methods are completely DIY, some are DIY with help from a dentist, and some are performed while in a dentist’s chair.

Throughout recorded history, tooth decay (dental caries) has probably caused more pain than any other infectious disease.

A Summary of Dental Treatment Options

Despite substantial progress in the prevention of caries and gum disease, most Americans’ mouths still bear witness to their ravages. The usual procedures for repairing and replacing teeth have not changed in many years but progress continues on most fronts.

Gum Disease Prevention and Treatment

As more and more teeth withstand the threat of caries, a second type of threat must be confronted: periodontal disease, the disease of the gums, bone, and supporting structures around the teeth.
