Dr. Karen Elinor Calef

BEWARE!! Don't waste your time coming here!! Shes retiring soon and doesn't deal with ethnic teeth! Told me I would have to extract 4 prefecture healthy teeth to make room for my teeth. I got a second opinion with sometime who knew what they were doing and they said I didn't have to! Never once did this lady take an x ray or examine my teeth more then a few minutes. I was willing to do and pay whatever to have a simple healthier smile but not at the cost of healthy teeth! I maintain healthy hygiene and have a regular dentist. She told me what I had was genetic and to accept them or deal with a long 4 or more year process to achieve any results. She discouraged me the moment she even entered the room with a fake smile. Her decision was already set and because she wasn't going to be there by the end of the year, she gave up on me. I was too difficult and she kept steering me away from invisaligns. Said she didn't like how a computer would set the teeth where they needed to be and that it could take more time. As if I even complained about timing. Then she went on to attack my kids and tell me that they will inherent my teeth that I'm so disappointed in. That I need to get a jump start on my overcrowded protruding teeth. She probably assumed since I was a person of color my spouse was too and my kids were doomed to have a mouth full of not society acceptable teeth. Yes I'm an adult but my parents never took care of my teeth. I thrive to have a healthy mouth. One day a happy smile, until then I want to warn everyone about wasting your time with this car salesmen disguised as an over priced degreed labeled "orthodontist"!!
