Ive been coming to the dental school as a patient for several years. I started because after studying in England for several years the dentists theyre had done a significant amount of damage to my teeth which meant a lot of restoration work back in the U.S. it started with a root canal that had to be redone that was done on England and got infected. My insurance was all used up for the year with one root canal and crown. Then they told me that another root canal was getting infected and this one also needed surgery, but my dental insurance was used up for the year and it would be months before the end of the year. But it was starting to hurt so this couldnt wait for months. Since I wouldnt be able to afford it without insurance, someone told me that it is much cheaper as a patient at the dental school at Tufts. I arranged for an appointment and became a patient and have been one for years.Due to it being a dental school, the appointments take a lot longer and are booked for 3 hour time slots (most times it may take less than that, sometimes though, it may need a little longer). Everything is double checked by a professor every step the way so no mistakes are ever made. Also being students they tend to be very cautious not to hurt you, whereas experienced dentists dont really care about your discomfort and just want to get the job finished. With a good dentist that can be a good thing as they will finish berry fast and not hurt you at all, but some dentists are not very good. This had never been an issue here.Every couple of years the student that I was assigned to graduates do a new student has to be assigned.The appointments might take longer, but the price even if they dont take your insurance cant be beat. If they do take your insurance, I would definitely use them. Im glad I found this place.

Great School, Great education- what more can you ask for? (Perhaps lower tuition but oftentimes in life, the best things need to be paid for.)

I love my school

Good medical school
