Nashville Dental Center

Believe me when I say that I am not the kind of person to post reviews ANYWHERE. But this experience needs to be shared.

I’m a touring professional, I don’t have healthcare, and I’m 25. So my finances are important to me and I’ve been aware that I’ve needed dental work for a while. Being that I’m paying out of pocket, I wanted to to avoid the overpriced Green Hills practices and I was encouraged by the reviews for the Nashville Dental Center. And I also really respect their outreach for the diverse community they’re in.

My first appointment in April had 3 fillings. The equipment was nice, the building was clean and the staff was friendly. There was one moment during the filling where an area they were drilling wasn’t completely numbed and I reacted to the pain loudly but they kept going and pushed through. That’s my only complaint from that procedure. Everything seemed like it was fixed when I left. But in the following weeks later, I had some pain when eating on one of my rear molars that got a filling. I chalked it up to “post period adjustment” that I was warned about. So I waited another few weeks.

A month and a half goes by and the pain is still there. I’ve had about 10 fillings done at a practice back home and I’ve NEVER had pain last this long and be this sharp, so I booked another appointment for them to take a look at it. They see me, and they adjust the bite position of the tooth. (Take a drill and resurface the tooth a little bit).

And again, same story... A month goes by and I still have pain. I can’t even chew on that side of my mouth because I’m worried that a piece of food will land in just the wrong spot when I bite and it will cause me to react.

So I came back today. They seat me, they took an X-ray, spend about 30 seconds in my mouth and then say, “it is my professional recommendation that you get a root canal.” So we’ve gone from a simple filling straight to root canal in the time span of 3 months...

For someone who is paying out of pocket, doesn’t neglect his teeth, and has had multiple fillings before that have NEVER ended in root canal, this whole experience is absurd to me. I’m frustrated because my tooth was “fine” before the filling and now I can’t even chew on that side of my mouth.

Don’t get me wrong, this place is wonderful for a cleaning, X-rays, etc. It’s a great building with good equipment and a more than competent staff with great integration for diverse communities. That’s why there’s two stars and not one. But don’t do any serious dental work here. You might end up with a busted tooth and a root canal recommendation.

I was very impressed by all staff being very professional and the superb sanitation of the building. I felt that the dentist listened to my needs and desires as opposed to her telling me. I’m sure I will be pleased with the end results. It’s a more lengthier process than I wanted however I feel comfortable that I won’t be dissatisfied as with previous dentists

Very professional, knowledgeable & Clean. I’ve been going for over a year now and never had an issue. Other than having to fight for a Ortho appointment because they’re always booked, I have no issues. Definitely recommend!

Awesome dentist place! been going for years and haven't went anywhere else they do it all. Great staff and Huey is polite, and professional as well as his staff.

This review is long overdue. Everyone here is very nice, many of the employees speak Spanish as well. I never waited too long after arriving at my appointments. I’ve had regular cleanings, fillings, and root canals done here and while it can be uncomfortable to go through, it was never painful to have these services performed.

Today was very good because when I left the smile was all worth it and I love how the people treat you. I was very happy thank God for that. I love how the doctor has such a great and wonderful way of talking to you to make you feel at ease I truly love having that kind of experience.

My mother is a old and faithful patient that’s never gone anywhere else. She has been a patient since 2002 back when it was a hole in the wall dentist at the old location that did great work for great prices.

However lately it’s been HELL for her to even deal with them. The past 3 YEARS they have been very UNPROFESSIONAL, from the front desk, to the dental hygienist, to the owner at times. My mother had gotten a implant done 3 YEARS AGO and they still haven’t got the RIGHT SIZE CROWN after all this time!

They would call her saying that the crown came in but every time she would go in to have it put on, it wouldn’t fit. So they would force it on which cause stress and anxiety for her and In reality the crown that they kept trying out for many different appointments was most likely the same one as before bc it looked exactly like the one that they should have sent back to the lab but probably never did. They would constantly blame the lab instead of taking ownership and making sure it got resolved in a timely manner. Also they kept saying they are waiting for the new crown but it is taking to long because of COVID. Sorry but COVID should not be an excuse especially if she’s been having to wait patiently for many months in between appointments. And then they have the nerve to call a couple days before her appointment that she’s been waiting for months to try to change the time of the appointment after she’s been waiting for 3 FREAKING YEARS TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN DONE CORRECTLY THE FIRST TIME!!!

After all the money our family spent over the years and all the people we have referred we NO longer recommended anybody going here.

I saw Dr. Burns on 2 previous visits she is a beautiful and delightful person, not only a wonderful dentist. I so enjoy my visits to Nashville DC, they are the nicest and friendliest people you could ever want to meet. My dental needs are very pleasant and professional, but also fun and enjoyable. I highly recommend Nashville DC to everyone.

I’ve only been to one appointment here at Nashville DC and let me tell you, they are lovely, highly professional, thorough, and they know how to put nervous patients like myself at ease. I’d love to recommend their services to everyone I can! Absolutely amazing dental center with a staff that cares.

Dr. Fleming is an AMAZING dentist! She's very kind, patient and puts her patients at ease. The dental techs are very professional and make you feel comfortable. I am so glad I found Dr. Fleming! Thank you for giving me back my smile!!
