Venneri Joseph P Dentist

The dentist themselves are wonderful. The office help are another story! I got 3 reminder phone calls that insisted I call them back to keep the appointment. If that weren’t enough, I got a fourth phone call asking if I was going to pay in cash because they called to get pre-​certified and were told we didn’t carry that insurance. (I had a new insurance and planned on bringing it with me to the appointment). So my children and I stopped going. If payment is all they are interested in then I need to go to another dentist. 2 years later, I get a phone message that it’s been a while and they had some openings if we would like to come in!

Everytime I come here, the dentist tries to sell me veneers. Today, she found a cavity and said, «I can go in and fix this cavity, and while I’m there, I can also…» and then she went into a medical sounding explanation of a seemingly medical procedure. But no, she was just trying to upsell me veneers again.
The lady who does the cleanings is super nice and awesome, but the doctors really need to stop upselling.

Dr. Joe is one of my top ten favorite people. I would never go to another dentist. He is by far the best!!!

Ok, I know it’s totally weird to rave about your dentist, but that is exactly what I do when I tell people about Dr. Joe and Venneri Dental. I have been a patient with them for about 2 years now, and I have not had one bad experience. On the contrary, for the first time in my life, going to the dental is actually quite pleasant, and — best of all — pain-​free! Every single person on staff is nice. They are careful and take their time while picking and digging around in your mouth. They explain everything they’re doing and actually stop if it hurts. I have two large tauri (bony tumors) in the bottom of my mouth, and in the past these have made going to the dentist — especially getting x-​rays — into an experience just shy of torture. Every hygienist I’ve encountered has been extra careful with my tauri. When I have x-​rays, they carefully place the x-​ray pads in my mouth, and sometimes will line my mouth with gauze so that the pads don’t cut up the bottom of my mouth. I cannot tell you what a huge difference just that little change has made in my experience of going to the dentist.
I finally convinced my husband to change dental practices and after his first appointment at Venneri last week, he came home and said «You weren’t kidding — nicest people ever!»
