Gregory A. Stiver, DDS / Dental Care Center of South KC

Had an emergency issue with a bridge, when I was finally in the office after 3 days they wanted to take extra xrays that I didn't feel were necessary. Since I pay my own dental I watch what is done; but I was told they wouldn't do anything without this work being done first. Asked to see the dentist and was told it would be a long time, 2 procedures before he could look at my mouth. I left. Received a letter cancelling out doctor/patient relationship. Before this I rec'd nice phone calls after visits and had a cap and cleanings done there. It seems they assume that you will do whatever they think you need done and they always seem to be trying to sell something. I don't trust this office and don't think asking the dentist about the bottom line before we start work should be a problem.

This dentist told me that I had three cavities that didn't exist! I didn't believe him because I had only had one cavity ever and he said I had three. I took my x-rays to my previous dentist who confirmed that I had no new cavities. Also, he convinced me to get veneers on my front teeth. I paid a hefty sum for them, but one of them was defective and quickly became discolored. He told me there is "no warranty" on cosmetic work.
