This is what it says on his computer site Hello my name is Dan C. Paik. I have been working as a general dentist for more than 22 years. I designed my office to provide state of the art dentistry. I have been a long term advocate of advanced dental technology. I practiced dentistry for a total of 14 years in Las Vegas, prior to that I practiced for 8 years in California's San Fernando Valley It was here in Las Vegas that I realized the trememdous need for providing quality dental care. I graduated from USC Dental School in 1987 I am an experienced, well trained doctor. I am here to serve you as my patient. My mission is to strive to improve my techniques and treatment through continuing education, new equiptment, and the latest materials I utilize advanced technology to improve the quality of my care. I know that no two smiles are alike, and customize treatment to meet your needs.
What he doesn't say is that all permanent work is done by an unnamed laboratory. I saw a man come to the front reception desk and pick up a half filled gallon plastic bag half full with dentures every time I was there; he was taking them to the unnamed lab for the fitting procedure. None of the dentures were individually wrapped all of them just bouncing around together. I asked Doctor Paik if I could see the model he was fitting the teeth to and he said he didn't have one that the lab had it as they had to break it into small pieces to make the dentures.
The final time I saw Dr. Paik, again, the dentures did not fit and no smile whatsoever. He put some temorary filler in and on them and stuck them in my mouth and even though they hurt and did not meet together properly; he threw up his hands and said that's it!
I said WHAT and again he threw up his hands and said THAT'S IT! I am through! AND WALKED AWAY!
I have not seen or heard from him again.*” ...Show less »
