UNEASY ABOUT NEW PRACTICE (Dental Care at Plainfield Crossing): After moving to Indy, I was glad to see Dental Cares $59 introductory offer that covers cleaning and X-rays. Their new facility and staff created a good first impression. However, the exam that I expected to last 30 or 45 minutes ended up being a two-hour ordeal with so many X-rays that I became worried about the amount of radiation, especially when several pictures had to be retaken. I was also concerned by all the extra procedures they tried to talk me into, including something Id never heard of: deep cleaning (the “cheapest” of the recommended procedures). The deep cleaning alone costs over $900 and requires special follow-up visits at $160. (Since then, the highest price Ive found for deep cleaning at other dental offices is $450 - half of what Dental Care charges.) Dental Care does have the latest equipment, including lasers, so maybe their fees are in line with the high-tech goodies, but Id rather save money with traditional methods and equipment, especially since reports favor the traditional method of deep cleaning.* All of my life, Ive gone to respected dentists with large established practices, but theyve never recommended any of the actions that Dental Care has. (Have my teeth deteriorated a lot since my last exam or did my former dentists - in two cities - overlook something?) The staff at Dental Care may be 100% correct in my diagnosis. However, I was taken aback by their rather pressured approach. Ive decided to get a second opinion. *I googled the term and was surprised to learn that some dental practices have been “hard selling” services like deep cleaning that may be overcharged and/or unnecessary. Deep cleaning (traditionally known as “scaling and root planing”) is a legitimate procedure - if you have gum disease.

The team at Dental Care at Plainfield Crossing is wonderful! They were very welcoming, and I had a comfortable initial appointment. The exam was one of the most thorough I have ever received, with x-rays and photos of my teeth on the tv screen in front of me to better understand my own mouth. Cheyenne, the hygienist, was very caring, and my teeth felt so great after my cleaning! Dr. Boehm has a fun, uplifting personality. Dr. Boehm and her team took very good care of me, and I look forward to my next cleaning and dental experience with them! Thank you!

I walked in with so much pain. Everyone was super nice and welcoming. The staff was amazing and gentle. Even though they couldnt take my wisdom tooth out that day. They were sure quick to get me back in as soon as possible. They help with payments and even payment plans. I would highly recommend them to any one. They dont let you leave without a smile and they make you feel like family. I love the facility, its very clean and well kept up. This is just an all out amazing experience especially for someone who hated the dentist as a child.

I find that Dr. Boehm and her assistants took time to explain all the procedures that I had completed. Her assistants explained all the pros and cons of the procedures so that I could make an independent decision on my own. I never felt there was any pressure to do anything that I didnt feel comfortable whether it be physically or financially. Her staff is also extremely helpful. Dr. Boehm has great communication with her assistants and hygienist and they work very well together. I would rate like this place 6 stars if possible !
