Here is my Google review:

Quality Poor to fair

What a disappointment !!! Ruined my perfectly happy and healthy tooth while trying to place a crown on it! Painful experience,I don`t recommend to anyone! I would definitely stay away!!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is the story:

I was looking for a new dentist since I moved Seattle and found Ryan Fox DDS PLLC. I made an appointment and visited the office to get dental exam. During the exam Ryan Fox DDS PLLC suggested that I should get a crown on one of my tooth that was treated with a filling about twenty years ago. Tooth was fine but he was able to convince me that crown would increase the life of the tooth...I didnt question his opinion and let him to place a crown on it. During the crown preparation operation he gave me two options stating the following:

"there are two choices here...1- place a crown and 2-extract the tooth"

I was shocked since I was sitting on the dental operation room expecting to get a crown and absolutely did not understand why he was giving me an option to extract my tooth? I wanted to get a crown, and let him know what my decision was : CROWN!. He stepped out the room and came back 1 minute later and stated that he must extract the tooth!

Here is my summary, you can always go there and find out by yourself!

Bad dentist? YOU BET!

Lied to me? %100

Charged to me for the service that I did not receive? YES

Made and attempt to correct the situation? NO

Does he care about his patients? ABSOLUTELY NOT (based on my experience with him)

I suggest that you find a dentist who knows his stuff well ( if you don't want to loose a tooth! like I did.... )
I absolutely do not recommend!
