Tammy & Phyllis are really sweet there, they are very kind and patient. I have had an unpleasant experience with Dr. Draper. I had a lot of fillings done, and afterwards experienced a lot of pain. They would not see me right away due to cold sores caused by the initial treatment, so I had to wait. Dr. Draper refused to write a Rx for anything for my pain, even though it is keeping me up at night, I constantly have to keep icing my face, and Im taking the maximum dosage of Tylenol and Advil, with those not touching the level of pain that I am in. I think its normal for humans to fear pain, and that is why the dentist can be dreaded - fear of pain. I think Dr. Draper is insensitive to patients in pain, and if you are scared of being in pain, you should see a different dentist - one who would be more sensitive to your quality of life and care. I asked for nitrus during the fillings, and Dr. Draper said I didnt need it, and she kept drilling away. I was visibly shaken and clearly distressed, but I was refused. The extreme stress of the visit caused cold sores, which was documented at my primary care physician. When I went back to address my pain, she wanted to adjust my bite by drilling on my teeth with no Novocaine, or nitrus, or anything. This was terrifying, so I did not do it. I left and I am just going to deal with the current pain I am, go to the ER if necessary, until I can get in with a different dentist to adjust my bite. We are going on week #3 now with extreme pain, & I can not chew any food whatsoever on the left side of my mouth. On my follow-up visit, Dr. Draper wanted to get right in working on the right side cavities after drilling to adjust my bite, before the left side was working properly, which would have left me unable to eat solid food at ALL for who knows how long. Im not sure if Dr. Draper is new at life, or dentistry, or what. Chewing food is a pretty basic necessity... I do have medicaid, and the only thing I can think of that would motivate a dentist to behave in such a way is that maybe Dr. Draper is in the habit of refusing pain and stress management to patients, to save her practice money. If this is the case, this is extremely unethical. If this is not the reason, her behavior is inhumane. I am not sure what is worse...

I have always had a great experience At East Charlotte Dental. I have a long history with this place and have been seen by many Drs . I also have 2 of my adult children now going here since they aged out of a pediatric place they started with when they were toddlers.Today I had a filling with Nitro us Oxide and was made very comfortable. Next month I will be without insurance and will have to pay in cash for a dental cleaning. I am willing to keep coming! I paid $130 for this months (January 2017) cleaning I had no x rays done 6 months ago it was $143. I was told it was bought by another company in October 2016 new pricing. Only a few of the old employees still work there. 1/24/2017

We really try to support our local dentist, BUT... the revolving door of dentists, not explaining services before they surprise-charge you for them, sending you to collections because the office management cant figure out how to submit a bill (they admitted sending us ZERO bills before sending to collections)... being a loyal customer for years and paying cash gets you nothing with these people. One dentist did the worst crown Ive ever had, then he moved to their "real" branch out in Indian Trail), although we liked Dr. Hollowell. Sadly, done here.

Its hard to find a good dentist office that truly has your best interest at heart rather than just fill a seat or sell you something. Then there are offices where theyre very friendly, but what good is that if they dont do the job right? Dr. Ross explains everything in detail and does a great job. If I have any concerns, the team goes out of their way to accommodate. Great group of people there.

Our first experience at East Charlotte Dental was for my teenaged daughters cleaning and exam. Jessica, our hygienist was excellent! She was thorough, friendly and gave personalized attention and instruction. The operatory rooms were very clean, which is extremely important. We look forward to our next visit, here!

I love this place, they really care about your dental hygiene. I moved from Ohio where my dentist failed to do xrays whoch resulted in periodontal disease. East Charlotte Dental has made sure my dental hygiene is back on track. Other perks: quick service and friendly staff.
