I visited this dentist and was told that I had many cavities and needed my wisdom teeth removed. I was referred to the only oral sureon that they deal with which was Dr. Won. Dr. Won inevitably severed the nerve in my mouth, and I no longer can feel on one side of my chin. I believe that both dentists take advantage of the Medicaid patients that they help. I have sincfe reported the incident to the Dental Board, and I would suggest anyone who has had a bad experience with either one of these dentists to do the same. No one will ever no that they are not good dentists if you don't let the dental society know ( the people who are trained to look into this kind of behavior). I have since seen another dentist and was told that the cavities did not exist.

The receptionist is very rude. I just tried to make an appointment for a cleaning. Somehow the whole conversation got out of hand and she ends up telling me that me and my family are not welcome at North Hills Dental anymore and hangs up on me. So far I didn't have any problems with them as far as care is concerned but I guess I'll have to look for a new dentist now....

I decided to change dentist after one treatment there. The staff (other than the receptionist who is friendly and seems to care) seemed distracted or bored. After my cleaning I was made to wait for 30 minutes for the dentist who determined after she got there that I didn't need to wait for her. Not to mention the dentist (a female) kept calling me "honey" and 'sweetie" which was very annoying. Overall I just didn't get a good feeling here and went to see another dentist at another practice and realized instantly that I wanted to be at their office and not North Hills Dental.

I do not know specifically about all of the dentists in this practice, however, I have had a dental exam by Dr. Karen Torres, Dr. Cobhams associate. I do NOT recommend Dr. Torres. She told me I needed three fillings. I went to my old dentist to pick up xrays and told my hygenist that I was going to a new dentist for fillings and I was told to get a second opinion as there was no decay in my teeth just six months prior. I went for my fillings appointment and asked Dr. Torres was she sure there was decay and she said she didn't know until she got in there to drill. I ended up leaving the office before I got my fillings to get a second opinion that same afternoon. I was told I had no decay by a very highly regarded denstist in Raleigh who has been practicing for over 40 years. Two days later I went to another dentist and was told the same thing, there is no decay in my mouth. Dr. Torres obviously is just trying to make a buck and fill people's teeth when there are no cavities. What she saw was stain on my teeth in a groove. I got a letter from the practice saying I would no longer be able to be seen at N. Hills Family Dentistry. Do not be seen by doctor Torres or you may get your teeth drilled for no reason other than to put a buck in the dentists pocket.
Pros: None worth mentioning
Cons: Digital xrays which can't be read very well when taking to another dentist, poory trained dentist(s)
