The Dental Center at Harris Ranch

I had to have a tooth pulled and it was quite a problem. The staff was patient excellent and got it out. I was amazed at how kind they were.

Dr. Vania and his staff were outstanding…!! They heard my desperation, and squeezed me in to a late Friday (same day) appointment when no one else would. My problem was more serious than normal dentistry could fix, but they had a genuine desire to help me and fast tracked me to a specialist. I had to wait the weekend in pain but the Dr. made sure I had what was needed to make it the two long days. My wife and I will be calling Dr. Vania our family dentist from now on. 👍🏻👍🏻

Have been going to Dr. Vania since his office was in Idaho City. Dr. Vania, Liz, and his team have been great to our family. We have had several cleanings, xrays, surgeries, etc. all with good outcomes.

I’m very happy with all of the staff at Dental Center at Harris Ranch. Liz at the front desk is friendly and great. All the hygienists I’ve had have been gentle and great, as have been Dr. Vania and his associate dentist, Brandon, who examined me last week when I was there. Completely recommend these folks!

In November of 2017 Dr. Vania put in a filling for a cavity that was causing me no pain. After he put in the filling, however, it became extremely painful to chew food and the tooth was very temperature sensitive. I made a follow-up appointment and went back to Dr. Vania’s office, he looked at the filling and said that everything looked good and that the tooth would just be sensitive for a week or two. A couple of weeks later I was still in a lot of pain, so I decided to get a second opinion from another dentist. That dentist did some scans and recommended I have the filling redone. I had him do it that day because of the pain, and my tooth immediately felt better. However, it has been four months and I am still unable to chew on that side of my mouth completely pain free. I have had multiple dentist visits, and they are unsure if there is permanent damage from the first filling. I am also now paying to have the cavity filled twice. When I contacted Dr. Vania to ask if I could have the remaining fee on my account from the filling waived due to the poor quality and nearly four months of pain, he refused. He said that at my initial follow-up visit he thought my tooth may have been cracked (though he did not share this information with me at the time) and that I should have come back to his office, even though I already went back to his office once after the filling had become extremely painful and he said nothing was wrong. Dr. Vania’s staff are very friendly, and I did not have any bad experiences with him as a person or any of his employees. However, I have never had this kind of pain post dental work. I am surprised at how Dr. Vania chose to handle the situation, and frustrated at the cost I have to pay for the poor dental work. I will not be returning to his office and have found another dentist in Boise.
