Arbor Dental

I was new to Ann Arbor and saw the good reviews for Arbor Dental so I decided to go see them as a new patient for a routine cleaning. During my cleaning, the hygienist was extremely nice and did an excellent job during the cleaning and x-ray process. After my x-rays and cleaning, I saw the dentist. She poked around in my mouth and looked at my x-rays, then proceeded to tell me I had 10 (yes 10) cavities that needed filled. When she told me this, it seemed a bit odd as I have only had 3 cavities ever, and never more than one at a time. They then took me into a room and told me it was going to cost me $1500 after insurance for all the work I needed done. This came as a shock to me as I have never had to get this much dental work done. Since I was skeptical, I sent my x-rays to my old dentist and she proceeded to tell me she only saw one tiny cavity that could be restored with regular flossing and fluoride. After that, I decided to get another look from another local Ann Arbor dentist. I went in, he re-took my x-rays, poked around in my mouth, and told me I did not need any fillings at this time and that they would watch two small spots, but he was confident I could re-mineralize them. Needless to say, I am now extremely disappointed in my visit to Arbor Dental and will not be returning. Even though I had to spend my time and money going to get a second opinion, it saved me a lot of money (and mouth numbing) in the long run.

I came to Arbor Dental on the recommendation of a friend. My own dentist had insisted that my wisdom teeth were fine and no action was needed, but I was in pain and wanted a second opinion. My friend raved about the amazing job Arbor Dental did on a difficult wisdom tooth extraction she had. When I called Arbor Dental, the person I spoke to had some of the best customer service skills I've ever come across. I was frankly pretty panicky at the time, and she was extremely sympathetic and unbelievably knowledgeable about the situation and about the different levels of insurance offered at U of M, which there was no reason for her to know but I really appreciated it. She was able to get an appointment for me the very next business day. At this appointment, Dr. Jaffer took at look at my x-rays and my teeth and determined that all of my wisdom teeth needed to be removed immediately. I was able to have the one tooth that was already pushed through the gums removed by Dr. Iyer in the same appointment with just local anesthetic. She did an AMAZING job. I honestly felt no pain except for the slight twinge when getting injected with the local anesthetic. Then, I came back 2 weeks later for oral surgery to remove the other two wisdom teeth. I was sedated for this and it was performed by Dr. Jaffer. Everything went really smoothly. One thing I really appreciate about Dr. Jaffer is that he really listens to his patients and really cares about them. I was amazed the first time he called me personally to see how I was feeling after my extraction. He also gives you his personal cell phone number to use before or after the surgery in case of emergency (luckily I haven't needed it!). Thank you so much Dr. Jaffer, Dr. Iyer, and Arbor Dental!

I went to Arbor Dental to have my wisdom teeth removed and they were kind, helpful, and made sure I was very comfortable and informed from start to finish. Dr. Jaffer called me before and after my appointment to answer any questions and see how I was doing. I was very nervous before the procedure, but they did an absolutely excellent job! I would definitely recommend Arbor Dental to family and friends.

Dr. Jaffer and his team are great. I've been coming here for almost three years for cleanings and recently had my wisdom teeth removed. Dr. Jaffer made sure to call me the day before and day after surgery personally to make sure I was comfortable and all was well. Highly recommend.
