Brar Dentistry

I went in on a bad tooth ache and no insurance. They got me in the same day I called, understood I’m a nervous patient. They were all very kind and gentle and even did the best they could on my cash payment.
Will be going back for more work.

Terrible place my son went to. Walked out after a 20 minute wait. They called and talked him into coming back and lowered the $ 800 deep clean to $ 200. Came back for another try and paid the $ 200. Got a bill and they insisted on the additional $ 600. They Denied ever quoting the lower price. Friends and family will not be going to an establishment/​dental practice that runs a business like that.

Please note I would give more then 2 stars for the doctors themselves, they were great for what I got done, but the terrible service I’ve dealt with just from reception and thats why this review is only 2 stars. I moved to the area a year ago and needed to get my wisdom teeth taken out. So I researched and seen all the locations are not far from my house. I’ve seen some positive reviews on here and on their website so I decided to try them out.
The 2 doctors I’ve seen were very nice. When I went in for a consultation I met with Dr. Adams and he was very polite and told me how they would extract my teeth. 2 weeks later I went in for the 2 wisdom teeth and I met Dr. Brar, he was really nice and the nurse who was with me that day was also very nice, I don’t remember her name. The procedure itself didn’t take very long at all, and my mouth is very small so one side was much much harder then the other and I have to give it to Dr. Brar that he did not get frustrated and calmly told me what was going on the whole time. It was a successful procedure in the end, except part of a filling I had on the tooth in front of the wisdom tooth fell off and he told me that it looked decayed and that I needed a crown put on it. When I went in to get my stiches removed, they were very pushy about setting up a time to get that crown done which I didn’t like. When I went to my regular dentist for his opinion he said I would not need a crown put on it and that I could just get it re-​filled. So I saved a lot of money by getting his opinion.
I got this procedure done in October and before I left that day they gave me some random amount to pay for the procedure. So I did that and she said the paperwork would be put through to my insurance. Well half way through November I received a bill for the full amount of the procedure when it still has not gone through my insurance. I called and asked about it and a lady told me not to worry about the bill and that they were putting it through insurance that week. It is now the end of December and I have received yet another bill with late fees and the full amount being charged AGAIN. It still has not gone through my insurance and when I called today she said they had a glitch and that she was putting it through insurance today. It just seems like they don’t know what their doing at the reception desk, and its frustrating when you know you have an outstanding bill hanging over your head.

This started in 2012: Dr Brar is a rip-​off artist — overcharged me for two crowns which I had to — conveniently — finance with them for 2 years.
My new dentist was absolutely amazed that Brar had put a crown on my last molar, as there wasn’t a tooth below it to engage. The second crown fell off. That tooth was so decayed under the crown that it had to be pulled, oh and guess what? The chronic pain in that tooth stopped. 3 years ago I requested antibiotics because it felt inflamed and they refused to prescribe any because there was «NO REASON».
Do not go there (this one was the West Dundee/​Sleepy Hollow location). Awful staff.

What a rip off. I have never felt so scammed in my life. Don’t fall for it, read the reviews and take note, all these people want is your money and they will lie, cheat and steal to get it. Sonja told me my services would cost $ 1,000 and I was charged $ 2,450. When I refused to pay the overage they threatened to send me to collections, they called my work, they basically made my life miserable until I had to pay even though I know I was cheated. I have NOTHING good to say about these people.

I went in with high hopes for this place. They said I needed fillings and possibly a root canal. They were very pushy about getting me in for this root canal. I decided to not have the root canal done.
A year later, I went to another dentist amd no root canal needed not even a filing in that physicist tooth. They would have charged me $ 800. Not to mention that I didn’t need all the filings that said I needed.

I am so happy with Dr Brar! I went looking for a dentist that could help me and at the same time can afford. I researched for several months. I have to admit I’m a big baby when it comes to a dentist. I read the reviews that were for Dr. Brar’s dentistry. If you look, the reviews for all dentists are bad. Two of my co-​workers swore that Dr. Brar is gentle and affordable. I was able to see his work 1^st hand. I decided to go with this dentistry. Great choice. I already got a root canal and 2 posts for my implants. I was put out and woke up with no pain. After soup and a nap I hardly needed anything for pain. By the next day I felt great! Can’t wait to get my crowns on. I don’t feel like a toothless bus driver anymore! I liked Dr. Brar so much that I made this office my regular place for dental work. I’m coming from Bloomingdale so that should say it all! Next time you are searching you won’t be sorry. Oh yeah, Sonia who runs the office helped me to be able to afford permanent teeth. I’m very grateful.

Stay away. You all have been warned!!! This place told my brother he had so many cavities, and will need many fillings, and root canal. That raised a red flag. Decided to check another place out, and it was not bad as this dentist described. Stay away from this shop and Sonia. They are there to take your money and keep you in pain.

I agree with the bad the reviews. Stay away. On my first visit, I litterally heard Sonia say «We can charge up to $ 1200 because that’s what the insurance covers». I was not sure if they were talking about my insurance but just hearing that I felt was wrong. After they charged 1,100 for a deep cleaning and xrays, I returned because I had a tooth ache. After more xrays they instantly told me I had an infection and needed an implant. They gave me antibiotics and charged me another $ 220. I was given an estimate of 5,000 — 8,000 for the implant, depending on what my insurance covered and I was told to come back for the first phase. My husband insisted I get a second opinion, which I did and I was told not only did I not need an implant but I did not even need a root canal (which is what I thought I needed). I’m never going back.

I agree with so many of these bad reviews.
Sonya is THEWorst. I, like a previous review, had 2 crowns put in. Followed by months of pain. Back to that Brar office several times and told you need root canals. Then I got the bill… They have several locations, but the new one on Randall isn’t listed with insurance and Sonya outright refused to work with insurance. Dr Adams is full of himself about how ge went to Emirates to work on shiek or something– full of himself.
Billing was way over priced from what Sonia ’ guestimated’ the cost would be.
I ended up at a much better place where 2 root canals were done, with current Drs not believing the level of infection and stuff that came erupting out… How could Brar not figure out that crowns do not go on inflamed tissue area like that?
Never go
Trust the bad reviews

Beware this office tried to double charge me by $ 2000.00. I will never return to these frauds again!

I have a dentist now. Anyone that knows me knows that I — like many people, have avoided going to the dentist because of my fear about, well, everything at the dentist. I was kind of forced to go recently because I literally broke one of my teeth. I chose them because they offered sedation and — let’s just say, I am so glad that I went. Because I haven’t been to the dentist in so long I needed a lot of restorative work. Is it expensive? Yes. But I don’t know any dental work… and I’ve been to enough dentists in the past to know that they all charge about the same. And really– do you want to lowball it when you are talking about your health? Really– when people have tooth or gum problems you hear them being in agony– if saving a few hundred bucks or even several thousand would put me in that place in the future, no thank you. Suffice it to say, I am very happy with Brar dentistry. The people there are used to dealing with freaks like me that are terrified of everything. They do numbing WELL. They explain everything and make flexible payment arrangements. I had 4 root canals, a deep cleaning, a tooth fixed and several fillings in the course of one month… yea, not my wildest dreams but… I did not have pain during the procedures (here’s a hint– bring your headphones/​ipod– makes a world of difference to tune out the noises!!) and only what I’d call discomfort after the procedures– nothing Advil wouldn’t help.
Highly recommend them. Tell them Kelly sent you. ;-)
