Pearl. Dentistry Reimagined

Sanpriti Ireland a month ago

Over the past three years I have been receiving my dental care from Pearl, and as a result I've been able to overcome a phobia that inhibited me from seeing dentists for over a decade. Dr. Amanda Curlin met me with compassionate understanding and clarity, and she even made me feel comfortable about getting my wisdom teeth removed. She's calm, patient and extremely patient-centered. This week I went in for a cleaning and my hygienist was Taylor. She was wonderful, extremely well-informed as to current peer-reviewed research re: dental and periodontal health, and made me feel safe and heard the whole time. Very encouraging, and they both took the time to help me weigh a few dental health options that I need this year. *chef's kiss*

I had a great hygiene appointment with Saige at the College Street location. She was very thorough and personable. She makes the dentist feel stress free when going in. If you are looking for a hygienist in the Charlotte area, request Saige! As someone who has worked in the dental field, I can say that Saige and Dr. Amanda Curlin truly care about their patients and deliver the highest level of dental care. Highly recommend!

Avoid Pearl Dentistry Reimagined if you care about honesty, transparency, and basic integrity. This has been one of the most aggressively profit-driven dental offices I’ve experienced. Nearly every visit turns into a sales pitch - fluoride treatments, fillings, night guards, or something new each time. The pressure is uncomfortable and feels more like a commission-based sales environment than a healthcare setting. They also charge without clearly communicating. Fluoride was applied without proper explanation or consent, then billed afterward. The same thing happened to my wife on a separate visit, and they even used a deposit I had on file without informing me. There was no discussion, just charges. While some staff members are friendly, it’s clear they are under pressure to upsell, which creates an awkward experience for both sides. The pattern continues with treatment recommendations. I paid thousands for Invisalign, yet they still pushed a $500 night guard as if it were necessary. At nearly every visit, they “find” new fillings. At one point, they even suggested redoing a filling they had completed just a year earlier, again at my expense. After getting multiple second opinions, other dentists disagreed with most of these recommendations. The most frustrating experience involved my implant crown. Within months, it became loose while I was eating soft food. Considering the cost of the procedure - even after insurance—that’s unacceptable. When I contacted the office, they couldn’t see me for two weeks. When I finally came in, I was charged $100 just for the visit (after explaining I no longer had insurance), and $255 total for a quick fix that took about 10 minutes—something that shouldn’t have failed so soon in the first place. There was no apology or accountability, just another bill. At that point, it became clear that this office will find ways to charge you in almost any situation. I’ve never seen a medical practice so focused on maximizing revenue. What makes it worse is that people I referred here had similar experiences: constant upselling, questionable diagnoses, and feeling pressured into unnecessary treatments. I regret not taking their feedback more seriously earlier. If you’re considering major dental work like crowns or implants, I strongly recommend going elsewhere or at least getting a second opinion. These are procedures that should last, and based on my experience, this office does not stand behind their work. Do yourself a favor and choose a provider that prioritizes patient car, not one that treats you like a revenue opportunity.

I had a very disappointing experience with Pearl Dentistry Reimagined (both the N College St and S Tryon St locations). It felt like the focus was more on upselling services than actually caring about patients. I was recommended treatments that didn’t seem necessary, which made me question their intentions. There was also a lack of transparency when it came to pricing. Costs were not clearly explained upfront, and I ended up feeling confused about what I was being charged for. Communication around billing was poor, and getting clear answers was frustrating. Overall, the experience felt more like a business trying to maximize profit rather than a place focused on honest dental care. I would not recommend this office if you’re looking for straightforward and trustworthy service.

I have been going to Pearl Dentistry for about 4 years and my experience there has always been phenomenal. Regardless of the purpose of my visit (fillings, crown, cleanings) the care is amazing and better than any other dentist office I’ve been too. I’ve been worked on by a majority of the staff and every single time they are so nice and pleasant to be around. They constantly make sure you are comfortable and do their best to make the entire appointment as painless and easy as possible. The practicing dentists are a credit to their field and I’m constantly impressed with the quality of care they give. I can’t recommend them enough!
