Ulery Dental & Orthodontics

The front staff was really nice, I’ll give them that much, and they were patient with me. When this place says «we cater to cowards», they mean it — they do. I was treated very gently. But that’s where the good ends with this place.
The dental staff was… we’ll just say impersonal and leave it at that. I wasn’t reassured that any of them knew what they were doing. In the end, I had teeth that needed to be extracted, and they arranged for me to come in, take off of work, and have the procedure done — only to get me under, then wake me up and say, «Sorry, we couldn’t do the work. You woke up during the procedure.» Which is funny, because I remember doing no such thing.
They ended up sending me elsewhere, with a referral in hand, and a surly «Good luck.» Nothing else. I had to find the alternate surgeon myself — if I had known I would have had to do that, I wouldn’t have bothered going to them in the first place.
I ended up going to Maryland Oral Surgery Associates in Gambrills, who treated me very professionally and with no problem.
Not only that, but Ulery tried to charge me 1243 dollars for the same surgery that only cost me 781 at MOSA.
The two stars are strictly for the front office staff — as I stated, they were very sweet and very pleasant to me. But I have absolutely no use for the dental staff — they basically wasted my time and almost made me waste my money.
Not recommended.

Went here for a routine cleaning and exam. Everyone was nice. I went on a Saturday and barely had to wait. I also had a cavity and they offered to take care of it same day. Dentist was friendly and did fast and thorough work. I’m not sure how expensive other places are… or how much my insurance took care of… but it seemed reasonable.

I was looking for a sizable dentist office near my workplace and stumbled upon Ulery Dental & Orthodontics.
I like the fact that there are several days during the week that this office closes a little later. That gives me time to come in after work. Waits aren’t extremely long, per say. You get assigned a room early, but that room might act as your waiting room.
I went for a regular checkup/​cleaning, and my experience was less than satisfactory. Though the dental assistant who did my cleaning was nice and friendly, I’ve never had a more painful cleaning. It seemed she always picked at my gums by accident. My gums bled a lot, and though that happens from time to time, it should bleed that much. In addition, after the cleaning, I had to wait quite a bit for the dentist to come check on the assistant’s work.
