Capitol Square Dental

I had a similar experience as another reviewer Kolin. I had a a number of things done, but I had the most trouble with a crown. First off, they still use temporary crowns and mine did not fit and constantly fell out. Second they lost the impression and I had to wear the temporary for weeks. Thirdly when they finally installed the crown, some of the cement was imbedded in my gums which cause an inflation and infection. I am now scheduling surgery to correct.
The staff was nice, but mostly fresh out of hygienist school. I got the impression the dentist was competent, but distracted and rushed through the work.

Dr. Safavian is the best dentist ever. Honestly, he genuinely cares about his patients and is not in the industry to take your money. I have had 2 crowns and numerous fillings here and he is always up front and honest about costs. I highly recommend Capital Square Dental! Come check it out yourself

The staff is friendly. The dentist is friendly.
I had to go back in multiple times for fixes to problems.
6 months later I can’t eat on the right side of my mouth. The filling was done, Regrinded. Removed and redone again. Now I’m still in pain.
Chairs in the office are all essentially in the same room, so you hear everything happening in the other chairs, people talking about their denture problems etc. etc. They also hear everything you are saying. At times the dentist will bounce back and forth between chairs mid procedure or discussion, there’s only ever one dentist.
I don’t want to be overtly critical, it could be that this is normal and I’d experience this everywhere. But I have to say, my confidence level is such that I don’t feel comfortable continuing on with them, So I can’t give it anything more than a 2.
Update: After a visit with another dentist I had recommended to me, there were about 7 spots where my fillings were too high and had to be fixed, one of my fillings was cracked in half, there was residue in between my teeth that cannot be removed without redoing the two cavities there which makes it difficult to floss, and the way two fillings were shaped opposite of one another means the filling there will be prone to breaking. The new dentist said he can remove these and redo them properly if It continues to break. At this point I’m comfortable saying no one should go here. Also, when my new dentist numbed me to redo the broken filling i was shocked that it didn’t hurt at all, never felt it, at capitol it was agonizingly painful which they assured me was «normal». The new dentist said that if you go slower it shouldn’t hurt at all…

All I can say about these guys is … I wish I had more dental problems so I could come here more often. Capitol Square Dental gives proper homage to dentistry in the most unlikely of places, downtown Columbus. It’s absolutely worth the trip.

I have been going to Capital Square Dental for about 7 years now. The dentist is phenomenal. He is personable, funny, honest with me regarding any procedures, and is always very gentle when I am getting a filling. I have to admit, I even would come back for check ups when I moved away to Chicago during this time. I refuse to go to any other dental office. (Thank God I moved back to Columbus last summer, the hike to get a good cleaning was getting annoying.)
The entire staff at Capital Square Dental is a delight. The office manager is open, funny, and a pleasure to deal with as well. I will never go to another dental office again! The office dynamic is great, and they all make an unpleasant experience (dental work in general), into a fun time!

I’ve always been a good boy when it comes to my teeth. I floss, brush, and use Crest Pro Health twice a day. I’ve had two cavities in my whole life. I LIVE for dental visits!
Nothing beats the experience of Perfect Smile Dental Spa in Chicago. The lobby with it’s video games, treats and beverages. It’s ambiance with the fountains, and sound machines. The massages, the paraffin waxes, the entertainment-​while-​you-​get-​your-​mouth-​worked-​on options. And of course great dental care.
But here, I found a friendly office manager, a friendly hygienist, and a friendly dentist. I realized that less is truly more. No ads for Invisalign. No upsells. Just a great experience, and a doctor who I immediately felt comfortable with and was happy to answer my questions.
It gets my highest rating for it’s «back to basics» way of doing things. Very refreshing indeed!
