Steven H Young, DDS

The only thing keeping this from being a one star review is his staff was very nice and accommodating. My wife was referred to him to have something on her tongue biopsied that her primary care doctor and regular dentist thought was suspicious. Dr. Young spent more time questioning her on why someone else had filled out the patient information form. I assisted her since she has fibromyalgia and has difficulty writing sometimes. Never has this been questioned before.
He did a very brief exam, and thought the problem may be in her head due to the type of medications that she was taking in a very condescending manner. Dr. Young did not do a biopsy, but referred my wife to Tufts University Craniofacial Pain Clinic in Boston. There is no way we are going to go somewhere over an hour each way with no guarantee that they can help us, or Lord knows how much we might have to pay out of pocket for. We are hoping that our insurance will cover the $ 70 consult fee. Otherwise we would have been better off spending it up the road at Twin River. Lucky for me, I’ve already had my wisdom teeth out, but if I ever need oral surgery, I will steer clear of this guy.

The best! Have seen Dr Young twice now. Have never felt a thing while in his chair. Had 4 impacted wisdom teeth out and never batted an eyelash. Would recommend him to anyone. He is very polite and friendly. Gives you all the information you could ever need. His staff is really friendly and caring too. Best office!!! He even calls you later that night to check how your feeling. I love Dr Young!

Ok so I went into Dr Youngs office and really didn’t know what to expect because I knew I was getting a somewhat elective surgery and was told by many people and Internet sites that it was going to be a very hefty price for an implant. I have to tell you I was amazingly surprised by the pricing. I also did a ton of research amongst the community of dentist in RI and every good dentist said they would be referring me out to DR Steven Young because he is the best hands down and uses all the latest technology in all his procedures which he did and he had no problem explaining things to an inquisitive person like me. I have to say this was one of the best expierience I have ever had. No pain at all, tons of laughs, awesome staff, great prices, and to boot a personal phone call that night From Dr Young him self to see how I was doing. This place does things with finesse and has awesome follow through. Thank you so much for a great expierience and I will spread the good news to all my friends and family for many many years to come. Guys like this go very far in life/​business. JK

Dr. Young might be totally okay for somebody who has no problems with/​fears of dentists or surgery. But this is not the right guy for me.
The rates are really good if you do not have insurance, and they have a lot of availability so you can usually get an appointment in less than a week.
I was really skeptical about surgery so I decided just to go in for a consult first.
After they get all of your medical history, they sit you down in a room and show you this video that tells you all of the things that could possibly go wrong with your wisdom tooth extraction… umm, thanks for the panic attack?
The doctor came in afterward, quickly looked in my mouth, and told me that I should get all of my wisdom teeth out. I then explained some of my concerns with fear/​anxiety and he kind of brushed it off. He was very straight with me and told me that because my wisdom teeth were not impacted, an anesthetic would not be covered by insurance. Yeah… there’s no way you’re getting those teeth out of me if I’m not put under!
I made an appointment for the surgery because they offered me some anti-​anxiety meds to take before I came in for the procedure. I thought about it for a few weeks and then decided to call and cancel, and I’ll be going to get an opinion from another doctor.
Like I said, this office might totally be okay for some or even most people. I just need a little bit more reassurance and good bedside manner than the norm when it comes to doctors doing anything to my teeth.
