Benk Joel R, DDS

I only had 2 teeth with anything wrong with them ever. He was very understanding and helped with my big fear of the dentist. I am not very fond of Mercury and he helped to remove some I had that had gone bad. I got the CEREC procedure (where he makes the tooth right there)) a few years. It was great to have one day visit to get my old filling taken out and my cap. Just last October. I got a tooth removed and got an implant put it.. My implant came after my root canal tooth was removed. It was painless. I plan on going back. I had always gone the way the insurance company paid and I would rather pay Dr. Benk more to do the best procedure rather than just take what the insurance covers.

Stay away. Over-​priced, seems to want to do way too much work… he also mentioned I should just take out my wisdom teeth like it was «no big deal». He tried to pitch me all this service to make my smile perfect and last… ($ 10k in procedures). Dude, I just wanted a cleaning and to deal with that pain in my tooth. I think this guy takes the dental work to the extreme and screw people over who he thinks can «afford» the service. Cavities were $ 350 a piece here and they didn’t tell me my insurance was out-​of-​network before I came in.
He also used some «scare tactics:» that other dentists would not match the quality of his work and that people «come in here all the time with horror stories from other dentists.» He was trying to convince me to pay his outrageous prices.
It felt like a car salesman trying to up-​sell me on procedures. Oh, and his «finance» guy was in there while I was having my consultation.
