Richard B. Garden, D,D,S, 555 Benfield rd, Severna Park, MD


Rating: 5 out of 5.

DR Garden is the best dentist I have ever been too. His entire staff are so polite and kind and knowledgeable. I needed 2 serious exstractions removed due to my neglect. DR Garden explained the whole procedure to me in terms that I understood and never felt that I was being scolded or talked down too. His personality is up beat and friendly, and his dental skills and knowledge are superb. I am so happy to have been recommended to DR Garden's practice. D. Calabrese, Maryland

Dr. Michael Sullivan, Gaylord, MI


Rating: 1 out of 5.

Very sad experience. Dr. Sullivan performed a root canal on my number 13 molar. The root canals of this tooth are very narrow and extended. I warned the Dr. that I had a traumatic experience with elongated tooth roots which for teeth being extracted both as an adolescent and as a young serviceman in the Navy. Both of those times the dentists had a rough time with the teeth. The procedures lasted over 4 hours for the tooth when I was a child, and two visits over 3 hours each when I was in the Navy. Dr. Sullivan assured me that he was capable, and that his skill was superior. I believed him. After his first attempt at root canals on this tooth, Dr. Sullivan sent me home telling me that there wasn’t enough time that day to finish the procedure. Mind you I’m under the influence of sedation at this time. I told Dr. Sullivan that I would rather have the tooth pulled than go through another 3 hours in the chair. Amazingly I believed him again when he told me the reason he couldn’t finish was because of scheduling. He also said that he wanted to prove to his dental assistants he could finish the job! Being as high as I was on the anesthesia I made the poor judgement call to return. Two days went by with excruciating pain in my upper jaw. I was having to take Tylenol and Advil to relieve the discomfort. I went back to Sullivan’s office, asked AGAIN if it would be better to just extract the tooth, and he said it was his opinion he could save it, and this time he could finish the job and apply the cap. So I strapped on his gas mask and knocked myself stupid only to have the “Doctor” root around, stretch my jaw and break off half of what was left of the tooth. When I came to I distinctly remembered the snap, the dental assistant saying “Oh God!”, and the good Dr. scurrying away into another operatory. What was I told this time? Of course that I’d have to come back since it was the tooth’s fault it was so damaged that it cracked, and now he had to make a new cap with his machine. Stoned on the good Dr.’s laughing gas I told him “that’s okay, mistakes happen”. What an idiot I was. The laughing gas wore off and the Tylenol Advil routine lasted a week. I went back to Beacon Dental Center, this time for the last time, to finally get the remnants of my tooth capped. This time he squirted the glue in to fill the root canals, fixed the cap on the tooth, and away I went. Fast forward 5 years and I’m in the chair of a very competent dentist. The dentist asks if I’m in any pain and I mention the constant pain I’ve had on my left sinus area. I’ve felt this pain for three years. I’m shown the current X-ray of the area and the Dentist tells me that it’s not normal. The capped tooth is great work (machine made, remember) but there is stuff in the canals of Number 13 tooth that extend into the sinus. After visits to an Ear Nose Throat MD, Oral Surgeon and Endodontist specialists, I’m scheduled to have an operation to remove the so-called saved tooth, and resultant fistula created by the extensive overfilling of the Number 13 root canals with guttapurcha, the latex based root canal filling material. Predictably I could sue and win to recover the costs of these procedures, but the good Doctor has closed his practice, and is now enrolled in a school in Detroit. The lawyer I consulted doesn’t see that my case is strong enough to show the pain I’ve been living through since I trusted Dr. Sullivan. Of course there are risks to root canals. I accepted the possibility of a dry socket, and possible infection, but was re-assured by Sullivan that he’s done thousands of these procedures with no bad outcomes. General dentists can perform root canal procedures along with other dental procedures, but often they refer patients needing endodontic treatment to a specialized practice, who works in collaboration with your dentist. An endodontist is a dentist who specializes in saving teeth. Dr. Sullivan should have not touched that tooth after I warned him of the history of my other root issues, and certainly after he saw the roots narrowness and length.

Dr. Eric B. Fisher, Old Country Rd., Plainview, NY


Rating: 2 out of 5.

This dentist performs unnecessary work such as putting caps or crowns on wisdom teeth, leaving broken files in teeth that he does root canals on and putting in fillings on teeth that don't have cavities. He has gotten very greedy and is very inappropriate. Find another dentist!

"UPDATE FOR DR. GAUKHMAN'S FAKE RESPONSE TO THE B.B.B." As Telling them that I am happy with the failed shoddy work that his assistant Vanessa did. Stating to the BBB that I am using the failed $27,000.00 rip off that they gave me, I gave a stated letter from the dentist that completed my work ,stating that the grossly failed work is in his safe keeping, at the new dentist office, but Dr. Gaukhman refused to accept it back and-to give me any of the money back, and knows it is in the possession of my new dentist,his assistant Vanessa planned the whole two failed units from 2 different labs, and did my 11 treatments totally by herself, as a unlicensed, untrained,unprofessional assistant hence the two failed attempts with 2 different labs and all planned so unprofessionally.

Dr. Murat Atli, 24000 Alicia Pkwy #18, Mission Viejo, CA


Rating: 5 out of 5.

I had not been to a Dentist in decades. Like many others I dreaded the prospect of going and luckily had no pain until it finally happened, I took a bite of food with a hidden bone inside and broke a tooth. The throbbing pain wouldn't stop so I called a friend for a referral and they could not stop, or slow down, the amount of amazing praise for Dr. Murat Atli. They went on about how "Lucky" I was and how much "Fun" I would have and that I was in for a "Great Experience". So at this point I'm thinking I've got to remember to have my friend looked at for mental health issues as soon as I get rid of the excruciating pain I was in. The tooth was so shattered it needed to be extracted piece by piece. Not normally an event one looks forward to experiencing however my friend wasn't looking so crazy as Dr. Atli's bedside manor was truly refreshing. In this age of go fast next patient, now next hurry hurry he took time to alleviate my fears and explain all that would occur and the changes since I'd last seen a Dentist. The process was truly remarkable, I did not feel shots to numb the area nor the stitches placed once removed. I felt only the pulling sensation when removing but No Pain, simply Unbelievable. Dr. Atli was Professional, Accommodating, Enlightening Caring and yes Fun. A Wicked sense of humor he definitely has. I now go out of my way to reccomend to friends, family even strangers the Amazing Dr. Atli. I've handed a business card (I keep some with me crazy as it sounds.) and even hand introduced people to this Brilliant, Talented and Very Rare Special Man on numerous occasions. I have never had a bad experience with and I Highly Recommend Dr. Murat Atli ! ! !

Dr. Peter Ickowicz, Williston Park, NY


Rating: 5 out of 5.

I am not a fan of dentists and try to find any excuse in the book to not go to my appointment because of all the lowsy union dentists out there. Dr. Ickowicz is nothing like those guys. He’s honest, straightforward, and doesn’t say I need 4 fillings done just to make a buck. I have been a patient of his for over 10 years and refuse to go to anyone else. Sure there are dentists closer to where I live but I only trust Dr. Ickowicz. Don’t even question it, make Dr. Ickowicz your dentist!
