James M Tinnin, DDS MSD

I had the worst experience with this dentist. I don’t know if it is related but both of my parents have also had terrible experiences with the other dentist at this office. I went in for a root canal. I was told the cost and then half way through I was told that it was too far gone to get a root canal and that we would have to do something else.
Because I was not comfortable making an uninformed dental choice without someone to talk to me about cost and options while my mouth was propped open I asked to talk it over with my mother. He then told me that because we had waited so long for my mother to arrive he would no longer be able to extract the tooth. But he still charged me the same amount as he would have for the root canal.
My parents and another friend of ours all had similar problems with the other dentist saying that there was a tooth that would have to be taken out. When they went to other dentists they were told it was fine and not as bad as he had said.
In general their practices make me think that they get you in for emergency work only to force you to make an immediate decision so that you will have to come back for followup work.
