Great Dentist Caring Staff Easy Appointments Referral-Worthy

I have been a patient at Dr Spaulding’s practice for a long time. It was thanks to doctor and his staff that I learned to take better care of my teeth. My previous dentist hygienist made me feel horrible about my teeth and hygiene. Over the years I have referred friends and Co-workers who have like the practice and staff as well. It is easy to get an appointment and they will do their best to accommodate your scheduling needs if you ask and when possible. The staff are caring and and care about me ❀️ and my adult daughters who schedule their check ups for when they come home to visit.

Great Service Passionate Staff Clean Teeth

I’ve never been to a dentistry that really seems to care about my overall oral health as much as this place. Loraine doesn’t cut any corners cleaning my teeth and I always leave feeling like she puts a lot of effort to ensure my teeth are as clean as possible (this has not been the case at other offices). She provides great instructions for maintaining clean teeth and is always passionate about what she does. Thanks Loraine and Spaulding staff for being a stand up dentistry!

Dismissive Uninterested Expensive

I first have to admit that Dr. Spaulding is clearly a knowledgeable man but the person who works the front desk and along side him during exams was much more pleasant than he was. I came in as a new patient and hoping to take care of a couple teeth that were becoming increasingly more sensitive due to the cavities they had. My mouth was in pretty bad shape and I already knew that going in. I was reminded of that fact several times throughout the short visit and he ultimately came across as dismissive and uninterested.

They have a decent energy in the office (no real rudeness of any kind) but the visit definitely felt rushed. He also told me what he was going to be doing to my teeth rather than asking me what I was able to afford to do (since I lack insurance). He insisted that I get a couple teeth removed by an oral surgeon first (who I have recently set up a consultation with under Dr. Spaulding's advice) before I could get any other work done. This is understandable if the other teeth that need removal are somehow in the way of further treatment.

I'm a college student with a limited income and I was going to be paying completely out of pocket so I was hoping to get a few teeth worked on at a time - that was never an option. His practice insisted I get them all done at once. He also insisted that the longer I wait, the worse my teeth will get - which I completely know & understand but how can I do that if I can't afford to get them done all at once? Why not help me handle the one's that were giving me immediate trouble and that I could afford to deal with at the time? After receiving this news, he left in a haste and seemed insistent that I immediately leave. I paid and left the office. It was a discouraging visit.

At this point, I have thankfully raised the money I need to fix all of my teeth at his office (several thousand dollars worth of work) but I don't think I'll be returning. Even though I'm somewhat established here, I will most likely take my business elsewhere and get established there. I've seen a lot of positive reviews on here, and that may have been the experience for most people but it definitely wasn't mine. This is the first time I've felt inclined to share a review about any service I've ever received but I felt like it needed to be shared.

Anyways, best of luck to anyone reading this.

Poor dental work Unprofessional behavior

Dr. Spaulding did root canal prep for me a year ago. A week after the prep I called the office and asked to me seen because I had pain and odor coming from the tooth in question. He prescribed me pain medication and I went on my merry way. A week later when I had my root canal done, Dr. Snider found a chunk of cotton buried under all the material used to give me a fake temporary tooth. Needless to say, when Dr. Spauldings office called for a general checkup appointment afterwards, I didn't answer my phone. I will not be going back.
