Report
Inconsiderate and Rude. I was there for over an hour in a waiting room before Dr. Jaffer came in and told me they were too busy to have a hygienist see me and I would have to come back for a cleaning. What? Why didn't they tell me when I got there? Why didn't anyone call me and tell me not to come? How is this acceptable? I was trying to find a dentist that accepted my new insurance but I would rather pay out of pocket for a cleaning elsewhere than come back to an office that does not value my time. This is an extremely busy week and I happily would have rescheduled if anyone had the courtesy to call me.

I have nothing but positive things to say about Arbor Dental, and about Dr. Jaffer in particular, having been a patient of his since 2012. The staff are friendly, the hygienists are thorough but gentle, Dr. Jaffer and his colleagues are adept and committed to providing personalized care, and the facilities are clean and up-to-date. If you're looking for a new dentist, I highly recommend Arbor Dental!

Money hungry, unorganized terrible dental office. They quote you a price, ridiculously overcharge what you are expected to pay, took 3 months to finally order the bite guard they pushed on me. I had to do three impressions because the dental hygentist didn't take the Impressions correctly. I have to call them multiple times to ask if my $600 plus bite guard was in. They sent me another patients bill attached to mine (no I'm NOT joking) itemized and all.
They fixed a chip on my tooth and it chipped a few months later and they refused to fix it without me paying $350 again. Did I mention I have insurance but they maxed it out on first visit? Just a terrible place don't go here.

I went here for a few years, until a dentist there took a brief look at an x-ray and told me I needed a root canal. I had my doubts about the accuracy of that diagnosis, so I saw two other dentists at different practices to get other opinions. They both said my tooth was fine, and that I had an infection in my gums, not the tooth. I did not go back to Arbor Dental. I got treatment for the gum infection from a new dentist and years later, my tooth is still fine. If I had listened to the dentist at Arbor Dental, I would have had an unnecessary root canal and had to pay for a new crown.
