5 /5 Christopher Viensec: Dr. Priya Meghpara was amazing. For that matter the entire staff was very friendly, very kind, very supportive, very helpful. I highly recommend 512 Smiles. I have been to a number of dental practices and 512 Smiles is by far the best. It was very important to me to find a biomimetic dental practice. If you dont know what that is you should look it up. With two broken teeth it was very important that I find someone that wanted to take a conservative approach and save my teeth to the greatest extent possible. Dr. Priya Meghpara and I spoke the same language. We were totally in sync. Dr. Priya Meghpara was very thorough and answered all of my questions. We came up with a stepwise approach that focused on conservative treatment and not just doing a root canal and a crown which you can get almost anywhere. Just to be clear I may need a root canal for one of the two broken teeth but Dr. Priya Meghpara is it going to do all that she can, if possible, to avoid that. Thats all a reasonable person could ask. That said the only downside was the cost. 512 Smiles is not in the Cigna and work. Cigna told me that most biomimetic practices are not in their network. The bottom line is the best care comes with a cost.
I also wanted to mention how impressed I was with their use of technology. X-rays were displayed on a large screen TV. Contrast staining was used to identify decay. Pictures were taken and also displayed on the large screen TV. In addition, many practices do not have the ability to make crowns and overlays in the office. That means you have to get a temporary crown and then come back to be fitted for the final crown which some practices send out to have made. 512 Smiles is a one stop shop. They can make the crown and an overlay in the office avoiding the extra visit.
