Private insurance is generally not accepted. The clinic operates Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with a lunch closure from 11:45 AM to 12:45 PM. Appointments are recommended, and language interpretation services are available to assist diverse patients.

It’s really awesome, I analyzed the tool ability of the primary dentist I received and so long as I keep a sharp eye on how the tool moves and communicate clearly, the work result is amazing. In terms of the appointment scheduling, if you’re on Medicaid like I am which is provided by WA State health care, it can be incredibly convenient if your local. Being that if you’re not local, the commute could be quite intense. For me, prolonged use of coffee and sugar and no dental check for ten years requires probably 12 appointments or so.

The ability level is primary safe for cleaning(grinding your teeth with a tool) and filling(medical grade amalgam made of metals and mercury). As for root canals, i found that they cannot perform the operation! So you’ll have to save up for that level of emergency. But I do believe if I hear right, they have a tooth removal available. You should definitely jot in your notes to fact check politely.

Just stay awake under the tool and be kind and assertive. Enjoy 🤓🙏🏾

Wait weeks for an appointment just to get an xray that somehow missed the 3 EXTREMELY obvious cavities I have, then scheduling weeks out for a cleaning that they could have done right then. I'm sure that at that point they would be able to find the cavities so they can charge insurance for yet another appointment to take care of those months later.

THIS IS A SCAM TO GET INSURANCE MONEY THROUGH EXCESSIVE UNNECESSARY APPOINTMENTS AND NEEDS TO BE SHUT DOWN IMMEDIATELY FOR INTENTIONAL MALPRACTICE AND INSURANCE FRAUD!

Staff was very polite. They accept Medicaid. The only downside is that they will only see you for one thing at a time. My daughter had several cavities that needed to be filled and they will literally only do one at a time making you go to several appointments over something that could be handled in one or two.

The reasoning is that they have to see too many patients in a day to do more than one thing at a time. However, when you have more than one thing, like cavities, it can be a real pain to get all your work done in an efficient way.

Excellent, they did a great job. Very professional, I had a tooth that was a problem they got me in soon as they could and did a good job of solving the problem. Great place for your dental care.
