"I wish I could write a positive review because Dr. Gignac always had a kind and welcoming demeanor, but this office is a complete scam. Every other checkup he would tell me I needed Invisalign, and to do it there because my insurance might cover it (even though I never had dental insurance and they had my information on file?), then the next appointment he would tell me that my teeth were perfect and nothing needed to be done. This went back and forth a few times. The final straw was about 2 years ago, when I was charged $1000 to fix a very very small chip in my front tooth in less than 20 minutes, and HE RANDOMLY STARTED DRILLING ONE OF MY BACK TEETH WHILE I COULDN'T SPEAK OR PROTEST! He only told me after that I had a "warning sign" of a cavity. I did not ask for this, I have had one cavity in a baby tooth in my entire life, and HE PERFORMED THIS PROCEDURE WITHOUT EVEN ASKING ME! HE DRILLED INTO MY TEETH WHILE I COULDN'T SPEAK WITHOUT EVEN TELLING ME WHAT HE WAS DOING UNTIL HE WAS DONE! This dentist is a disgrace, a manipulator, and a scam artist; don't let his demeanor fool you. I switched my dentist immediately after this appointment and have never had a problem since. DO NOT STAY WITH A DENTIST WHO STARTS TO DRILL INTO RANDOM PARTS OF YOUR MOUTH THAT YOU DID NOT MAKE AN APPOINTMENT FOR! ESPECIALLY IF THEY DON'T EVEN ALLOW YOU TO SAY ANYTHING AND STICK YOU WITH A $1000 BILL! The job he did on my chipped tooth wasn't even good. It was rough, bumpy, and incomplete; I had to go to another dentist to have it fixed because I did not trust him to finish the job well or to start drilling into other areas of my mouth that I did not make my appointment for. I had a much worse chipped tooth repaired in 2002 by my pediatric dentist and it is still completely unblemished and unnoticeable after all of this time. I just had another SEVERELY chipped tooth and my new dentist explained exactly what was going to happen and how much it would cost (<$500 without insurance) before the short procedure. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME AND MONEY ON THIS SCAMMING DENTIST! PUSH HIS HANDS AWAY IF HE STARTS DRILLING INTO RANDOM PARTS OF YOUR MOUTH!"

I hadn't been to a dentist in over 8 years. This was mainly because I disliked my previous dentists and anytime I went, I was guilted for not going annually. I visited Dr. Gignac's office this afternoon, expecting a similar response, and was pleasantly surprised. His hygienist was friendly and knowledgeable. She discussed with me one optional procedure that could detect oral cancer instead of assuming I'd want to have it done / pay for it, and when I declined the option, I wasn't met with guilt or anger. Dr. Gignac was very nice and to the point. He isn't trying to gauge you for money. I will absolutely be going to this office from here on out every 6 month to a year.

THIS IS A FRIENDLY AND PROFESSIONAL OFFICE. YOU WILL LOVE THE DENTIST AND ALL THE HYGIENISTS. ITS A PLEASANT, COMFY OFFICE WITH MUSIC TO MAKE IT NICER. YOU ALWAYS WALK AWAY WITH FREEBIES AND YOU FEEL LIKE THEY WANT YOU TO COME BACK!

I have been going to this dentist for 22 years, I would never go to anyone else. He is very concerned about my comfort and really cares about not only my teeth but my family too. Great dentist.
