Corson Dentistry

I was excited to return to Corson after moving back after 4 years away as I had such great experiences with them in the past. Unfortunately, this visit was disappointing. Before my appointment, I had my dental records and x rays transferred from my previous dentist. I even called to confirm that Corson had received everything and to make sure they knew which x rays I was due for. The person I spoke with confirmed that they had received both my records and updated insurance information. She also explained that my insurance only covers a panoramic x ray once every 36 months. Despite this, the hygienist took me back for x rays and began taking bitewings before saying she also needed to take a panoramic x ray. I explained that my insurance would not cover another pano and told her that I had already sent one over from my previous dentist. She checked my file and immediately found the panoramic x ray, which had been taken the previous year. She then said she would have to determine whether it was “suitable for the dentist,” which seemed kind of supercilious and unnecessary for a routine cleaning when I didn’t have any dental concerns. After taking me to the exam room, the hygienist left to clean up the x ray station. When she returned, I asked if she could wipe down the headrest because there appeared to be some oil on it from the previous patient. She responded rudely, “I already wiped it” but then cleaned it for me which did remove the residue. At the checkout, I asked whether my insurance would cover the bitewing x rays and was told they would be submitted to insurance, but because my plan likely only covers them once a year, I might receive a bill for $145. I explained that I had specifically arranged to have my previous x rays sent over to avoid unnecessary imaging and had even stopped the hygienist from taking an additional pano that could have cost even more. The office person responded that they like to take their own x rays and the hygienists simply always start by taking them basically saying “she was just doing her job”. No one had taken the time to review my records although I made an effort to communicate everything in advance. Now I’m facing the possibility of an avoidable bill. It feels like Corson was using the x rays as an easy way to rack up a large sum to bill insurance and that was their intention. While waiting up front for my partner to finish their cleaning that was at the same time, my hygienist came out from the back and I heard her tell the receptionist, “she’s still here,” looking over at me. Given the interactions I had already experienced, this came across as unprofessional and made me feel uncomfortable. Another miss was the paraffin hand wax treatment I fondly remembered from previous visits was no longer offered. The one positive was that the cleaning was thorough. However, that didn’t make up for the unprofessionalism I experienced and lack of transparency on possible costs.

I decided to call Corson dental because of a dental emergency my previous dentist ignored my concerns. I was scheduled the same day, I got a new crown and even got a root canal all on the same day. Both Dr. Harry and his assistant made me feel so comfortable both checked up on me frequently during my visit. I appreciate them both and grateful Dr. Harry listened to my concerns he prevented something that could’ve gotten worse. Thank you to everyone in the office all are so nice and helpful. I will be switching my dentist to here and hope to stay with Dr. Harry.

Was referred to Corson by a friend after I had not regularly gone to the dentist for years because of prior bad experiences elsewhere. The Corson Team has helped me get on track with my teeth, taught me invaluable information around upkeep and habits to keep the cavities away, and have always been very helpful. I’ve gotten X-rays here, custom crowns and cavities filled and recently was seamlessly fitted for a sleeping guard to keep my teeth straight and healthy longer. A highlight for me is their high tech xray machines and mouth scanners so none of those painful or awkward bite/ chomp and rotate experiences with those large xray frames. I have personally recommended Corson to everyone in Denver area who asks for dentist recommends. Thank you to this Team for taking my biggest insecurity in my teeth and now making my 6 month check ins something I look forward to!

As much as the Dentist causes me anxiety and stress, this office consistently makes me feel comfortable and relaxed. They were able to squeeze me in for an urgent item and quickly put me at ease and got me in and out quickly. Thank you Corson team for all you did for me today! Shout out to Dr Harry and his assistant!

Both the receptionist and the dental assistant were warm and friendly but I really liked Dr. Harry. He put me at ease and made me feel exceedingly comfortable. I look forward to my next appointment with this talented staff.
