Highly Recommended 2I’d strongly recommend getting a 2nd opinion (as many others have said) or just going to a different dentist. I had never had cavities before and she said I had 2 that needed filled during my first appointment. I trusted her and got them filled. A year later she said I had 2 more on the other side and we scheduled my filling appointment, but I had a bad feeling and went elsewhere to get a 2nd opinion. It has been 3 years since cancelling my filling appointment with Dr. Gum and going to my new dentist and I haven’t had any cavities since. Makes me wonder if I ever had any to begin with!

Love the staff and I can tell Dr. Gum really cares about providing the best care. I have never had a cavity and I am proud to say that I still to this day have never needed one. The hygienist’s are always diligent to take photos of my teeth and keep me up to date on xrays. I appreciate that everyone here is willing to answer any questions or concerns I have. The office dog is a nice touch that really helps with anxiety!

I am not the first person to leave a review like this (there is a CLEAR pattern here), but I will leave a more direct review. And for what it’s worth, I’ve never left a scathing review for any business in my life...but I believe most folks inherently trust their doctors and are at risk of being taken advantage of by Dr Gum with recommended fillings and surgical procedures that are entirely unnecessary and perhaps poorly performed. Context: For nine years before Angela Gum, I had one filling at my dentist. I brush, floss, and use antiseptic mouth wash 2x daily, and I drink more than a gallon of water per day. In three years with Angela Gum, I had six fillings, a crown, and was told that I "grinded my teeth (not true) and had me fitted for a sleep guard. (read: she charged me all sorts of money for things I didn’t actually need) Finally, at this year’s appointment, when I was nearly certain I had no cavities, I was told that I needed to come back in for three fillings, and that she wanted to see me 3x per year rather than the standard 2. This just didn’t sit right with me, so I went and got a second opinion. This new dentist did a thorough review and assured me that I needed "no active procedures" and had no cavities. To be judicious, I asked her to take the most aggressive preventive care posture possible, and asked if she’d recommend any fillings, and I was told "absolutely not." Not only that, but this second opinion dentist asked me "how long I’d had the crown" and I told her two years, as Dr. Gum put it in two years ago. TL;DR on this...she told me that the crown wasn’t placed correctly, she’d have guessed it was years older, and that we’d need to keep an eye on it. Given my own personal experience combined with other reviews I see here on Yelp, I’m confident when I am concerned for every patient of any doctor who exploits trust for profits. If you’re a patient of Dr Gum and she’s recommending any fillings, procedures, or other solutions, I’d strongly recommend you get a second opinion!

During my appointments the employees are wonderful at each level. I always love to chat up the front desk if they aren’t too busy and the hygienist and dentist always make you feel comfortable and safe during treatment. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a new dentist to see Dr. Gum and her great staff!
