I chipped a tooth over the weekend and called my regular dentist, they weren't able to fit my in for a week. I searched for another dentist and found Dr. Rockson's office and am glad I did! He was able to fit me in the same day and took the time to answer all my questions.

Less then a day after I chipped the tooth and nobody can tell thanks to Dr. Rockson! The staff are very friendly and they were extremely safe with their COVID practices. Will definitely be returning!

I went there recently and they said I had 12 cavities. I typically have maybe 1 when I go for checkups so I was very surprised and disbelieving. I did not get any filled because I wanted a second opinion.

I just went and got another check up at another dentist and was told I have 3 small cavities. I would not recommend this dentist as I think they either don't know how to recognize cavities, or are running an insurance scam.

Stay away! A few years ago I went to Dr Rockson for teeth whitening. I had to schedule a regular appointment before to ensure my teeth can handle the whitening procedure. At that appointment he said I had one small cavity that would need to be filled before whitening. I thought it was a little odd because I went to my regular dentist weeks prior and I was ok.

I gave him the go ahead to fill the cavity and that was my biggest mistake! As soon as I left his office I was in so much pain. I called back to let them know and was seen the next day to “fix it”. The pain persisted so I got it check by a different dentist and was told I had to get a root canal because the filling was too close to my nerve. I dont understand how a small cavity (his exact words) lead me to getting a root canal.

A few months later, i contacted his office to get copies of my scans and receipts and noticed I was over charged. I know mistakes happen but Im sure If I didnt notice, I would not have received my money back. I would highly suggest others to stay away from place!

Dr Rockson is the best dentist I've found in the area. He does good work, has never tried the sleazy upsells, and has a nice office with pleasant staff. I recommend him highly. I've had other dentists do bad work that he ended up fixing for me.
