Larsen Greg DDS

This dentist was awful. He was the only dentist to accept PCN in salt lake area. I went in originally for a chipped tooth to be fixed… he did a check up and said I had four cavities… I hadn’t had cavities since I was a child. Rather than take care of them right there like my previous and now current dentist would, he scheduled me out. I came back and got the cavities done… then later that day I had problems eating, I would have pain on my right side on a molar. I went back in. He thought he needed to fix the bite on the filling from the cavity. So he filed it down. I go home, still having pain when eating, even eating mushy food and having pain. I come back, he files down my filling again. Still have lots of pain. Finally he says root canal. But he doesn’t do it then, he schedules me out again. I come back to get my root canal. Find out it isn’t covered under insurance. Well luckily I didn’t pay for it because he screwed that up big time. First of all, he got hydrochloric acid down my throat! Then said oh that tickles huh. I was choking, my throat was burning. He and his assistant just stare and don’t help me or anything. I have the stupid dental dam in my mouth and I’m coughing and spluttering and need water to rinse it out. Finally they take the dam out for me to rinse my throat. Get the procedure finished and I still have nerves in that tooth, I’m sensitive to cold and sweets and he didn’t put a crown on, not even a temporary one, and they didn’t send me home with any pain medication or antibiotics! I called my previous and now current dentist and they said they are always supposed to give antibiotics for a root canal and if I was in a lot of pain he needed to give me pain medication as well. Well this weekend I had a lot of pain from that tooth. I ended up having it pulled yesterday and had it confirmed that the root canal wasn’t done right. Do NOT let this guy near your mouth, I think he’s just wanting the money but he will ruin your teeth and cause you tons of pain!

Dr. Larsen and his staff offer the best in dental care, including root canals, crowns and assisting with implants. He is an excellent communicator and says in simple terms what is needed, if the situation calls for it. My family has used his dental office for over ten years and we all love going to the dentist, because of their caring staff and excellent dental service. He does it right the first time. Every time. He is as good as it gets.

Dr. Larsen has been my dentist for ever. Great dentist and nice guy. Very friendly staff as well.
