Lakeside Dental

Completely appalled!
Let me start off by saying I have been in the dental field since some of these people were in Jr. High.
This office seems to be in the habbit of billing the insurance and charging patients for expensive procedures that are NOT required.
My husband and I went to have our teeth cleaned. My husband was told he needed a Scaling and Root planing (deep cleaning). The office also tried several times to sell him a night guard, and tried to dismiss him from the room WITHOUT addressing his main concern for the visit.
I have been in the dental field for over 17 years and my husband was a patient of mine. HE DOES NOT REQUIRE A DEEP CLEANING. When I asked their reasoning for this deep cleaning, I was told he had some tea/​coffee stains on his teeth and few slight pockets on a few back teeth. And he had slight tarter on the backs of her lower front teeth. ALL OF WHICH ARE NORMAL, AND CAN BE TAKEN CARE OF IN A NORMAL CLEANING.
As for me, the hygienist came into the waiting room and started to discuss my medical forms in front of everyone in the waiting room. She said that since I can’t have x– rays today I can’t have my teeth cleaned. I said «you can’t clean my teeth WITHOUT X– rays!?» Before she even looked in my mouth she said I might need a deep cleaning.
Do your self a favor and go to another practice where they actually listen to you and don’t diagnose imaginary dental work they can bill you and insurance for. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$

I was really happy with my first experience at Lakeside Dental. My husband had been seen here first and had work done by Dr Hanson. He was happy with his experience. I thought the front office staff was friendly, the hygenist did a thorough job cleaning my teeth, then I met with Dr Jones about some old fillings in need of repair. He was able to fix two of them right then and it was a pleasant experience as far as dental work goes. Prices seemed fair. He made sure I was comfortable and everything turned out very good. I liked his personality and friendliness. He will certainly be my regular dentist going forward and I do recommend this office.

I was in the office this week for x-​rays and a check-​up. The staff was friendly and helpful. Dr Henson was great! I was even able to get a cleaning on the same day, which was not scheduled previous to my appointment. I would highly recommend Dr Henson and Lakeside Dental to others. Thank you Lakeside Dental!

My husband and I recently visited lakeside dental and saw Dr. Hanson. We were both so pleased by his level of care. He was so gentle, professional and good at what he does! My husband never ever goes to the dentist and he said he would go back! If you’re looking for a dentist who cares about your level of comfort and does a great job he’s your guy!

I started going to Lakeside Dental several years ago, shortly after they opened I believe. I loved Dr. Reyes from the first visit, and took my teenage son to her as well for some major work and deep cleaning. The staff has always been very patient and gentle, especially with folks like me who have deep «dental anxiety.» When I lost my dental insurance through layoff, they worked with me as a cash patient as well. Then I skipped going to the dentist altogether for several years while not having insurance, knowing that I could not afford anything major if it came up. Eventually, this year, I got dental insurance again — and just in time, because a crown cracked and broke halfway of. It was an expensive replacement, but thank God for insurance, and a staff member who got me in quickly to get the ball rolling. Crown was removed, problem area filled, and temporary crown made in one visit of a few hours. Got the new one in and it is doing great! Have since gone back and had a bottom replacement retainer made, and will be going back soon for a deep cleaning. Glad to be back at my home dentist!

love the friendly, yet still professional atmosphere. great, thorough docs. they explained my care and why i needed the work i needed. the assistants were friendly and the front office staff was as well. they even called me the following days after my treatment to make sure i was doing well.

Lovely office with all the latest gadgets. Very pleasant staff! I saw Dr. Leatherwood for a consultation ($ 35) that included xrays then she did a root canal and crown the next week. About as painless as a root canal can be (I have had a lot of them). She is very pleasant and an excellent dentist.
