  Today was my first visit to Dr. Bassiri DDS for regular dental checkup and teeth cleaning. Rachel at the front desk was warm and welcoming. My dental hygienist Priscilla was meticulous in taking x-rays and digital photos of my mouth and giving my teeth the necessary teeth cleaning. My teeth feel great following my visit. Dr. Bassiri reviewed my x-rays and advised that I should get three crowns to prevent deterioration of teeth due to teeth grinding. As an uninsured dental patient, I unfortunately do not have the $5,500 quoted for three crowns -- or even $4,400 with the 20% discount offered with their annual membership. Dr Bassiri's $250 annual membership plan is very reasonably priced considering that it includes two semi-annual checkups and teeth cleanings as well as a 20% discount on recommended dental procedures. By comparison, Alexandria Old Town Dental charges $399 per year for a comparable membership plan. I plan to return in August for my semi-annual checkup and recommend this dental practice to anyone looking for a personable, friendly, trustworthy and experienced dentist in Fairfax Virginia.

  As a person who has dental related anxiety I specifically sought out this practice after their advertisement on their website of sedation dentistry. To my surprise after my teeth cleaning the dentist informed me that they DO NOT have nitrous oxide (which they say they do on the website) and that people who want it are "seeking to get high". After being persuaded by the dentist to let him at least try to fill one cavity without it and see how it went I made an appointment. The day before my appointment my anxiety already kicked it so I decided to cancel. After talking myself up for a couple weeks I called to reschedule. When I called to reschedule I asked if the dentist could write me a prescription for something to help with my anxiety before I had any dental work done. The receptionist told me that she would have to speak with the dentist and give me a call back. When she called back she explained that the dentist would not give me anything to in her own words "take the edge off" and my only option would be to have full sedation which would cost almost $800.00. I found it completely unacceptable that this was my only option considering their advertisement of working with people that have dental anxiety. I also found the language of "to take the edge off" completely inappropriate. It is not uncommon for people to have anxiety when they go to the dentist so if you are looking for a place to accommodate or be understanding without wanting to pay $800.00 for full sedation I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS OFFICE.
