Metro Decatur Dental

I would avoid this place at all costs. I went here because it was one of the few places my student insurance allowed, and I completely regret it; I would have been better off not going to the dentist at all that year. The dentists here are young and very inexperienced. I actually had to point out an obvious cavity to one dentist (not the dental hygienist, the dentist). Furthermore, their negligence later cost me a great deal of money and pain. A year after having a cavity filled here, my tooth abscessed and I had to get an emergency root canal. The dentist told me that they had drilled into the pulp canal of my tooth and then just tried to fill it like a regular cavity. It was a horrible, painful experience.

My husband also tried going here and his experience was no better. Two different dentists told him two completely different things, one of which cost $50 and one of which cost $500. Fortunately he decided not to have the work done there after I told him I thought they weren't very trustworthy, who knows what they would have done to his teeth.

Long story short, I would NEVER recommend this place to anyone. I wouldn't trust them to do even the most basic of procedures. Go anywhere else if you can!

Picking a dentist to make my dentures was a scary call, since I had to borrow a couple grand to make it happen...now it's over, I'm feeling contented (smug, even) having picked Dr. Simms and his technical assistant. These two gave me the red carpet treatment and a set of super-custom dentures which I've worn for about half a year and couldn't be happier with. Thank you to the whole team.
