PATIENT REVIEWS

Going to the dentist is not first on anyone’s list as a way to spend a few hours. Given that it’s not an enjoyable thing, the folks at Advanced Dentistry of Blakeney do their best to make it as painless and pleasant as possible. The offices in Blakeney are incredibly modern, offering flat screen televisions in each chair that the hygienist will set to whatever channel you want to watch. I go to see Dr. Betancourt, and his hygienist is very pleasant and helpful. Recently I had been too long between visits, and instead of just causing me incredible pain during my teeth cleaning, she instead did surface cleaning for the first visit and then offered to let me come in one week later – if I agreed to floss consistently for the next week – before she went into the gum area. According to her the regular flossing (I’m iffy at best, I must confess) “toughens” up the gums and after a week of doing it, her second foray into my mouth would be much less agonizing than it would have been had she done it all in one visit. I also like that they take a lot of time to talk to me about any questions I have. When I last visited, I had questions about some medications I was taking that had caused me mouth pain. While Dr. Betancourt had never heard of such a side effect, he gave me things to “Google” and promised me he’d look into it as well before my next visit. Also, I’ve learned a lot from my hygienist about my dental health and genetic predisposition to tartar, etc. She explained to me some interesting things, which helped me understand why my brother always had cavities, and yet I have very few – but I really have to floss and watch tartar buildup. Learning the mechanics behind this kind of stuff really helps me understand what I need to do to keep my teeth healthy – as she says, “everybody’s different”. So, the long and short of it is this: I hate going to the dentist, but Advanced Dentistry of Blakeney really helps turn that around, as much as you possibly can, when I still have to sit in a dental chair and have someone poke and prod at my mouth.

It doesn’t surprise me that this office has a rare 5 star rating which is so hard to do. I was there today and have been going there for about 11 years or so and they are always so amazing the staff along with Dr. Betancourt and his partner are so nice and make going to the dentist not so scary anymore and trust me,,, I’ve had them do it all to me. Many thanks to them also for fitting me in on short notice. yall are the best!

After many years of neglicting the proper care of my teeth, I went to Advanced Dentistry of Blakeney. They created a plan that took my budget, my schedule, and my personal comfort into account. After many months, I am able to smile for that picture again. When I am in the dentist chair, the Hygentist and Doctor’s make my time and my comfort their highest priority. I am so pleased with them, I moved my kids from their pediatric dentist to Advanced Dentistry of Blakeney. My kids like the switch as well.

Still going to Advanced Dentistry of Blakeney and don’t plan on making any changes. Great staff, always friendly and I’ve even had to reschedule a few times and they’ve accommodated me (with plenty of notice). Dr. Betancourt has always been fantastic and I’d highly recommend Dr. Betancourt and his staff.

The staff and service at Advanced Dentistry at Blakeney are second to none. Dr. Pinnix and Dr. Betancourt are extremely professional and courteous. In addition, the staff are incredibly competent and friendly. I have been going to them for years along with my children. And though this is my first review of any organization, I felt compelled to post this A+ grade of their practice. The motto in their front office reads “Quality is never an accident. It is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, intelligent direction, and skillful execution.” I completely concur that they live up to this very high standard.

Dr Betancourt and his team are great! Love the fact that they can 3D print a crown out as you wait, so no need for a temporary and a second appt. my husband decided to give them a try after listening to me say how much I liked Dr Betancourt and After his first appt he told me he was so glad he went. Just a great overall experience!

Great experience! Dr. Pinnix & Dr. Betancourt teamed up for my implants & crowns. My expectations were exceeded! The entire team (doctors, assistants, receptionists) was truly caring & concerned. I would highly recommend Advanced Dentistry Of Blackeney to anyone seeking first class dental care

I have been going to Advanced Dentistry of Blakeney for over 7 years and have always received the best care and professional advice there. They are an amazing and super professional team of dentists and staff. They discuss every procedure in detail and provide different options where appropriate. Every appointment is professionally handled and pain free. Would never consider going anywhere else. By far the best dental office that I have ever been to.

My entire family are patients (my wife and I, her parents, our children and grandchildren), so we have a broader, more comprehensive view than most. The dentists and hygienists are terrific: competent, capable, courteous, personable, totally professional. The office staff goes above and beyond, and tries to accommodate any special needs for the elderly, younger children, etc. In my opinion they and among the finest I have ever experienced, and strongly recommend them for all your dental needs.

I recently moved to the area and brought my fear of dentistry with me. I asked around for recommendations of a dentist Who would work with fearful patients because I knew I needed work after avoiding the dentist for years. After receiving several tecommendations for Dr Bettencourt I scheduled my consultation. My total experience from that time forward was nothing but reassuring and wonderful. Dr Bettencourt and his staff eased my fears and provided the guidance and tools I needed to get through 2 root canals with crowns, an extraction and deep gum cleaning. They were all great and I would highly recommend them to anyone that is searching for a dental practice. They truly made the experience a positive one for me.

As always, my experience at Advanced Dentistry of Blakeney was excellent. This is going on 10 years of being a customer, and I can honestly say that I have had nothing but the very best care from everyone involved. My dental hygienist is Amber, and she makes every visit comfortable and professional. Couldn’t be happier as a client – thank you

I have an unrealistic fear of Dentists, not so much fear of pain, but fear of the unknown, of costs, procedures, and mainly embarrassment, because I had put off going to the dentist for so long, until I had no option due to pain from a broken tooth. I no longer have dental insurance so fear of cost was a very real fear. I explained this when I called for an appointment, they were very understanding and were able to give me the exact cost and what they would do on the first visit. The day of the appointment, the staff was, helpful and friendly, there was very little wait time, and minimal pain, they were able to give me several treatment options, with clear costs. In other words most my fears and pain were taken care of by a kind and professional staff and I will not be afraid to make my next appointment.

I recently had a cap replacement performed by Dr. Betancourt. I was really impressed. This procedure normally requires multiple appointments involving creating a mould to send out to a lab, inserting a temporary cap, removing the temporary and insering the permanent cap etc. Well at Advanced Dentistry this procedure is all completed in one visit. They have the capability to manufacture the permanent cap at the office using state of art technology . This leads to an exceptionally well fitting cap not to mention a huge savings in your time.

5/5 experience. Dr. Betancourt explained everything that needs to be done and even did some extra work putting a temporary filling to my tooth until it will be fixed. Also they only charged me for a CT, even though they took some x-rays too.

Dr. Betancourt and his staff are a class act; not only the highest level of professionalism, but also taking the time to make a patient feel comfortable, informed and well cared for. Hard to believe I have been looking forward to my visits there! I can only recommend Advanced Dentistry in good conscience.

What a great experience I had at Advanced Dentistry of Blakeney! Having had the same dentist for the past 30 years, I was very skeptical about finding a new one who could live up to the care my previous dentist provided. I could not have been happier with my care! Everyone at Advanced Dentistry was so welcoming and kind. I had the most thorough exam I’ve ever had and Dr. Betancourt was absolutely wonderful! He is every bit as good as my previous dentist and I will definitely be a long term patient here.

I cannot heap enough praise on this dental practice! For no good reason I have high anxiety when visiting the dentist and have never ever received such good care and understanding as I have had at this facility! They literally work at making my anxiety go away and at the end I always leave wondering why I was so nervous in the first place! I highly recommend!!!!

As a patient of Advanced Dentistry of Blakeney for many years, I encourage all who are looking for a new provider for their dental issues to consider Advanced Dentistry of Blakeney. All of our family members are patients, including our 96 year old mother. Their professionalism, knowledge, courtesy, and kindness are so appreciated.

My wife and I were referred to Advanced Dentistry of Blakeney about 18 months ago – they are all GREAT!! It is a Professional Atmosphere YET Very Friendly!! It is a Beautiful Office with Comfortable Dental Chairs and TV’s you can actually watch – the Attention to Detail shows thru the Whole Office and Staff !!

Wow! Had an amazing smile transformation thanks to Doctors Betancourt and Pinnix. I had an issue with 2 older implants and didn’t think much could be done. I was a complicated case to say the least! They worked out a solution and my smile (and ablitity to chew properly) was fully restored! I’m very grateful and highly recommend them!

I have had terrible after terrible experience at the dentist. I was able to trust my dentist I went to since I grew up, but when I moved up to charlotte I had 2 massive bad experiences even with sedation. Here was my last resort and let me say I love Dr.Bentacourt he takes such good care of me he understands my fear and doesn’t make me feel bad about that fear. The staff is amazing and I will always continue to go to this place I love it and recommend it to anyone!!

I trust Dr. Betancourt’s practice after having been a patient with all kinds of issues (even an emergency). Highly recommended if someone is looking for best practices in the field as well as honesty. Dr. Betancourt went above and beyond all expectations on one occasion after I came to him with a problem created by poor treatment in another local practice!

Fantastic staff and wonderful Dentist. This was by far the best dentist experience I have ever had. Everyone works as a team here and they really care about their patients. I’ve never met such a personable dentist. He took the time to sit down with me to understand my goals and my background. I cannot say enough about how wonderful my experience was. This is the first time in my life where I actually can’t wait to go back to the Dentist. Love these guys!!!!!!

My children and I have been going to AdvNced Dentistry for 12 years. They have taken care of each of our individual needs and are great at explaining and showing what exactly is going on with our teeth. They take an interest in you and how you are doing. They never push you to have anything extra done to your teeth and if something needs to be repaired, they show you and explain why. We have been very happy with Advanced Dentistry.

I wanted to take the time to review Advanced Dentistry of Blakeney…I’ve been to a few dentists in my life, but none as wonderful as Drs. Betancourt and Pinnix…and their wonderful staff. What is so needed in any doctor’s office is compassion…you’ll find it at Advanced Dentistry…and their professionalism is above the rest…thank you!!

Our entire family goes to Advanced Dentistry and we are very please with the Dentists, medical and administrative staff. We have had a wide variety of services provided from basic cleaning & checkups to crowns and braces. We have always been pleased with the care and service we are provided. I would highly recommend to anyone to go to Advanced Dentistry of Blakeney.
