Poor quality dental work and a cast of rotating trainees. Myself and my spouse received multiple crowns faulty crowns from Dr. Baawo in the years 2009-2015. I also had issues with the competence of his assistants. My wifes crown procedure removed too much material and she has had a persistent infection. She will now need an implant. I received 3 crowns from Dr. Baawo.

One broke and needed to be repaired - first by Dr. Baawo and later by another dentist. All have been painful and subject to infections. The crowns fit poorly and the tooth is exposed at the base of the crown. He had rotating staff who I deduced were part of a training program. One time a staff member removed a shield from a xray device and pointed it at my head and triggered the device. Dr. Baawo walked in and was alarmed and reprimanded the staff.

He also made errors in my dental records. When I moved to a new dentist they noted that crowns were listed on the wrong teeth. This caused problems in having the insurance company reimburse me for work on those teeth.

They stated I had cavities when I DO NOT just confirmed it with two dentist. they stated I needed a deep cleaning, Found out I do not need one that severe. they billed insurance for prophylactic cleaning which they did not do.they told me I was too far along for that and didn't do anything that day but X-rays which they billed twice. also they had a Hispanic woman with me most of the time, whom kept shrugging her shoulders to my questions. I've never had dental problems so this was scary for me. atleast have someone come in that can answer my questions in English. they were quick to come in with a bill for a deep cleaning and did not explain ANYTHING.I left lost and confused and thank God for that because a second opinion cleared up their money scheming lies. I was there 3 hours with not even a cleaning. wait time is horrible and you pay for parking. do not trust this dentist!

The ONLY reason I am giving him & his staff even 1 star is because I had to write a comment. I went there about a year ago twice, against my better judgement. I really should've trusted in the comments I read about them, but I didn't. However, what was done is done now. When I visit the first time, I had X-ray taken & two teeth pulled & something was off even then.body language; seems like he was aggravated at my reaction to the pain.in which I was reacting normal, the way anyone would react. But, I shrugged that off & decided to go back for more work done.

This time was worst! The assistant was unprofessional with me at the very beginning, the new secretary had to talk me into staying. But, I needed to stay, I really need to get my tooth fixed. I was going through alot with this particular tooth. But to get to the point, Dr. Baawo worked on the WRONG TOOTH! This was after they took x-rays, after I told him I knew nothing about the lingo or name of the work I needed, plus I told him IMMEDIATLY, after he finished.

And instead of apologising, he got mad & proceeded to tell me what I ACTUALLY needed done & tell me how much it costs. SMH! To add insult to injury, the tooth that needed work was NEXT to the actual tooth he "worked" on, and this other didn't need ANY work at all. Lol. He simply just took my money because I did pay over a $100 co-pay, not to mention insurance.

If I had sued him, I would be out of MORE money from Court & lawyer fees. So, he got off that day. But, I REALLY hope he is taking better care of people, because back then, he was a rip off.

I'd give no stars. Please DO NOT GO TO THIS OFFICE. This dentist is know for overdosing patients he sedates. His staff members have walked out in the middle of procedures because of it. If you have gone to this office you need to check with the Georgia Dental Board. He is on probation and currently under investigation. Be careful. If you know someone who has gone here please let them know. DO NOT SEEK CARE FROM THIS DENTIST. Your life could depend on it. visit the GA Dental Board website to view this information. www.

Visited Dr. Baawo because I needed a new dentist since moving to Atlanta.big mistake. He told me I had 3 cavities, borderline gingivitis and needed deep scaling, all totaling $230, plus the ridiculous $6 parking. His hygienist was trying to get me to do another treatment until I called my relative (another dentist) mid-appointment to help me understand this.

Once my relative started talking with Dr. Baawo, he started backtracking on all of his accusations of tooth decay, gingivitis, etc. Now that I'm back at my hometown dentist 6 months later, they're trying to figure out what Dr. Baawo's office was talking about.no decay or gingivitis whatsoever! This office is just trying to scam unsuspecting customers into treatments they don't need!

I've been to Dr. Baawo twice since moving to Atlanta, and both experiences left much to be desired. I originally contacted them for a cleaning and x-ray in October. I waited for about 30 minutes to actually get my x-rays done, and another 30-45 minutes to have my teeth cleaned. I was getting very annoyed as I had other obligations to handle that afternoon, and I felt like my time was not being considered.

I was also quoted for a tooth filling at $54 for my front tooth. I came back to have the work done and they charged me $185 for the same tooth! I told the receptionists, that I was quoted way less, and they said the insurance would only cover a specific type of filling and I didn't qualify for the rate I was told. I am now having to verify the costs of the filling with my health provider, as the price to me seems extraordinarily high.

The dentist Dr. Baawo, is okay, I've only experience one hygienist, but the experience was the same. They tried to up-sell me on a deep cleaning that I didn't need, they gave me a half-standard cleaning, initially and a week later my gums felt numb and my mouth was sore. The final straw was the $6 parking fee you have to pay on-top of the whole "hell" experience you often get with coming to the dentists! NOPE not this year, they can miss me. I won't be back anytime soon! 2 STARS

I went in last week (07/14) for a regular cleaning and to have him take a look at an unfinished root canal (still need my crown). The staff was extremely personable and nice. Time kind of flew by while I was there because they made me very comfortable. Dr. Baawo looks very young, but has a very old-soul feel to him, which I love. It helps to really create a calm, serene environment which is always a major plus when dealing with dentist offices. I'd recommend him to family and friends!

Dr. Al was very nice the first couple times my wife and I went in. Then he started hiring people who didn't really know what they were doing. He played terrible movies while he was working on me and did not ask about my opinion. Then he made me wait over 2 hours one time. Then after he finally finished my root canal the tooth didn't fit right so I had to wait even longer for it to be finished. THEN after 6 months the tooth fell out! I asked him to put it back in and he refused! THEN my wife went in for a cleaning and they refused to honor the coupon they sent us. WE WILL NEVER GO BACK.
