Detailed version: I found this dentist (Daniel Leske) via Groupon for a cleaning and x-ray set. The hygienist that cleaned my teeth was attractive and warm-hearted which was nice because I have never been comfortable at the dentist office. She did a very good job on the cleaning. Afterwards, I was sold on the dentists idea about how to prevent grinding and relax my jaw. I tried soft sports guards before but they never worked. He assured me that the device I was ordering was made in a lab and it would be much better that the ones I had been using. He SPECIFICALLY stated that he would be giving me a lab-made device, for which impressions were taken. He made a handmade temporary bite guard during that visit in his office out of a low-density plastic material. At the end of the appointment I scheduled a follow-up appointment to pickup my lab-made device and verify the fit of it. They required that I pay cash for the device before receiving it ($450ish). I felt this was a little unorthodox, however, I paid it. I now see why this is not standard practice. I went home with the temporary and started to use it at night. My jaw felt a little better by the time of my next appointment and I was looking forward to getting a professionally made device, especially after my experiences with the sports guards. At the time of my next appointment, I brought the temporary one back as requested, and he asked me how it was working, made some adjustments on it, and then said "OK, let me know if you need any further adjustments." I asked about the lab-made device and he denied ever saying anything about a lab-made device. I asked him why impressions were taken, to which his reply was "its good to see how the mouth fits together and everything aligns." I asked him if he couldnt just look in my mouth and see that? He did not reply to that, and instead walked out of the examination area. His assistant came back and told me about the appointment being over and offered to show me to the front. I feel like I should have sued the guy, but I do not have written documentation or a recording of our interactions. Their marketing team still calls me for follow up appointments and I have asked to be removed from their call list. Upon receiving the first followup call I asked them about my device and they called me back stating that "the price for a lab-made device is $650." If you want a good cleaning from good hygienist staff then go here, but dont have anything else done- this guy is a crook. I am publishing this message on multiple sites in the interest of public protection.

Dr. Leske is a very knowledgeable and experienced Dentist - helped me a ton with my TMJ. He is SO kind too. I really feel like he has my best holistic (as in whole body) health, interests at heart. He also fixed a few of my teeth that were discolored and they look great. Love this guy!
