My first appointment was today and everything went smoothly. Hygienist was fantastic. Dentist explained things and answered all my questions. She was not pushy to try to get me to do this or that procedure. Definitely going back for future cleanings etc.
Was looking for a holistic provider and this is the place! Everyone is extremely professional and very kind! All of the equipment is modern and up to date. They are extremely thorough and the office is exceptionally clean and organized. I felt so comfortable during my visit as there was a tv on the ceiling! Everyone walked me through each step which was very reassuring. Will definitely be coming back! The cleanings are also extremely gentle, because they use the airflow! Amazing!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Everyone was so friendly and kind. The hygienist and Dr. Lee were very knowledgeable and gave great explanations of my issues. Best dental experience I have had in a long time!
The office was so clean. The staff was very friendly and personable. They were very informative. My second appointment has already been scheduled and I shared my experience with family members to bring them aboard as well.
If you REALLY care about your oral health, need an extraction and/or want a holistic approach here are 2 referrals where you will not be overcharged or dealt any sales pitches: Forest Drive Dentistry in Columbia,S.C & Middleburg Oral Surgery where the Dr's are PHENOMENAL. I visited Delite Dental on 12-4-25 to inquire about having an old root canal extracted, they told me that the visit would be $250.00 which included an X-ray. I informed them that I already had X-rays done and sent them in. Upon arrival everything was fine seemed very professional, the first thing that they told me once taking me back was that the Dr wanted to do a cone beam. That's basically taken from the same machine they use to take x-rays just allows a 360 view from certain angles and mainly used for patients who are getting implants. I informed them that I already had x-rays so there's no need to take more, if he wanted to take a cone beam that could be done instead of the x-ray which was included in my exam fee. At that point I could discern their sales pitch tactic. After taking the cone beam the Dr came in, we reviewed it and he really wasn't too confident about being able to get the root canal out without damaging my sinuses, he insisted that I should have all of my amalgum filings removed and worry about the root canal removal later. I informed him that the root canal removal was my top priority. He had his assistant take me back to the front and give me a treatment plan that totaled nearly $11,000. I was still on board and was actually going to start the plan. I then asked for a copy of the cone beam they took and was informed that I would need to pay an additional $250.00 for a copy of my records. So basically my exam went from $250.00 to $500.00 just that fast. I was shocked and asked why would I need to pay an additional $250.00 for a copy of my record, none of my current Dr's have ever pulled such a tactic before. The receptionist proceeds to tell me that a cone beam was not apart of the sales package. I explained that I was never told that they were running a sales promotion or package for a dental exam. I was under the impression that an initial office exam was $250.00 which would include an x-ray, but because I sent in my x-rays there was no need to do anymore and the Dr still chose to take a cone beam photo. There is really not much of a difference at all in the photos, but they refused to give me a copy unless I paid another $250.00. I told them that I would pay to have my records, but they could cancel the treatment plan because I would never return. I basically wasted my time and $500.00 thinking a so called "holistic" approach to having my root canal removed was the best way, he kept mentioning doing PF and ozone something, something, but I was never interested in an implant, I just wanted the dead tooth that was not giving me any problems removed and my jaw to heal normally, I didn't want him adding anything on top of my extraction. I went back home and consulted with my oral surgeon, I showed him the cone beam they took, he told me the X-rays I had already taken were better than the cone beam. He extracted the root canal in less than 40 minutes, the tooth never broke after having been in for over 13yrs. and he didn't puncture my sinuses. Sent me home with some instructions and prescriptions in case I have pain, I just had the tooth extracted Friday 12-12-25 and have not taken any pain meds or had any issues. The best oral surgeon I know is Dr. Taylor at Middleburg oral surgery in Columbia,SC. You need amalgam fillings removed and replaced with more healthier fillings, need to improve your smile? Go see Dr. Price at Forest Dr. Dentistry in Columbia, S.C you will not be dissapointed or overcharged and your insurance may be more than likely excepted, even if it's out of network they will still properly file it for you. I really hate when those in medical positions are more concerned with how to extract more money from clients who are not well informed rather than making their clients needs a TOP PRIORITY.
