Dentists

Dr.Kavanaugh is a fantastic Orthodontist. This will be my daughter’s third and last pair of braces. Apparently her former orthodontists in the other states we lived in failed to address the fact that her chin was growing inwards. In a matter of weeks her whole face looks so much better from the new set he placed on her. This office is so friendly and it feels like family and not some sleazy sales center like other offices we’ve been to. The front desk ladies and dental hygienists are all very genuine and helpful.

Absolutely love this place. My daughter had her first dentist appointment today and they were amazing.

They are a smaller practice and give great service. We would not go anywhere else.

Had a great experience at this dentist office, they are fabulous! :)

Great dentist

I wouldn't trust the dentist as far as I could throw him. Chris the hygienist was great and she supposedly has about 40 years of experience. I was supposed to have an oral exam and cleaning done the same day, but the exam wasn't done on that day because the doctor was 30 miles away. Chris seemed competent, doing a thorough job of cleaning at the first appointment, however she called me a few days later saying she must've written my social security number down wrong, and at that point I had a gut instinct the office was mismanaged. When I went today, the other hygienist couldn't find my chart and the dentist had to advise her of where it might be. Chris was supposed to check ahead of time if my bitewings were done a year ago to make sure the insurance covered the ones at today's visit, but no one checked, and the dentist made up the excuse that he was on hold for an hour with the insurance company. I suggested he contact my previous dentist to verify, and he made another excuse. I flat out told him I wasn't going to pay for anything not covered by insurance and he agreed to absorb the cost. While taking the x-rays he bumped his arm into the part that holds the x-ray in place, apologizing. When the x-rays came back minutes later he poked around in my mouth, finding things that were wrong, even though none of it was mentioned by my previous dentist only 6 months previously. I think the worst part was when he took dental floss and jabbed it into the base of my lower crown repeatedly, saying I had a 1/3 gap, and he left the dental floss in between my teeth, saying it should come out easily but because it doesn't, there's a problem. I ended up having to take my wet fingers, trying to wind the ends around, and got the dental floss out myself. He said the crown needed replacing, even though no other dental professional recently said anything about it. And, if I really needed that crown replaced, he wouldn't have told me, "Ok, everything's fine, we're done"...he would have asked me for a time to come in to have the work done. I'm on the phone now with my dental insurance filing a formal complaint against this office and should hear back within 30 days. I trust Chris as a hygienist, but when the dentist asked me today if I had a fear of dentistry work, I thought to myself that the only fear I have is his competency as a dentist. I have no trust in him. I don't know if it's just in St Charles County or Missouri or the entire US, but I'm sick of the dental community giving itself a bad name by con-artists that just make up things that are wrong with your mouth just so they can rake in more money for themselves. I've read reviews on a few other dentists in this area, and they're not pretty, verifying what I'm saying that these dentists are out to make money at the expense of individuals that have no clue that the dental work didn't need to be performed in the first place.

Very good experience. Would recommend to others!

Excellent honest service! Honesty is key this is the first dentist that I van truley trust. Dr. Hoppin and Kelly are first class!!

Fast, efficient, modern tools, and I hardly ever have to wait. What more could you ask for?
