First of all, I've always taken really good care of my teeth and have not had a cavity in my adult teeth to date. I visited Bagley Family Dentistry last August for a 6 month x-ray/check up/cleaning and was told after the x-rays that I not only had 2 cavities but one cavity that was in the dentin (2nd) layer of my tooth and that it should be filled right away. I was also told during the periodontal exam that I had several concerning areas along my gum line that indicated the start of periodontal disease and that this may need further treatment as well. Needless to say, I was disappointed but I had scheduled an appointment to get the cavities filled upon my departure. However, the more I thought about it, the more I started to question if this really made sense. I got in contact with my prior dentist that I definitely trusted (we had relocated to Greensboro or I wouldn't have left his practice) and asked him to look at my x-rays from my previous 6 month check up to see if he had missed any indication that a cavity had started to form, considering that the decay process of a tooth is gradual and certainly doesn't happen overnight. He assured me that he saw nothing on my previous x-rays and did not believe that I had cavities. Fast forward a year later (thanks to covid interfering with my should be spring check up) and after visiting another dental practice in Greensboro, lo and behold my x-rays taken a year later showed that I did not have any cavities in my mouth. Upon the periodontal exam, I was also told that my gum tissue was great and I had no problems or signs of periodontal disease. Not only did this happen to me, but my husband was told during his visit at Bagley Family Dentistry that he had 4 cavities with no explanation or discussion of the cavities. Then upon reviewing an insurance paper handed to him for the cost of filling the cavities, he noticed that it had 6 cavities/fillings listed. Upon questioning it with Dr.Davis, the response he got was just that yes, he had 6 cavities that needed to be filled. No explanation again or discussion as to why there were suddenly 2 additional cavities that needed to be filled. My husband also visited another dental practice in Greensboro where yet again it was confirmed that he only had 3 cavities, not 4 and not 6. Dental patient beware.

Had an awesome experience! Hadn't been to the dentist in a couple years and they made sure I got a full service that I could afford. Everyone was so nice and the office was really comfortable. Couldn't have found a better dentist in town!!

Dr. Bagley is an awesome dentist! He is always so friendly and caring! His staff members are so sweet and the teasing going on between them and Dr. Bagley makes you feel relaxed and takes your mind off the work their doing on you! I highly recommend this practice to everyone!

Dr. Bagley is amazing! I avoid the dentist at all costs. The pain became so severe that I was forced to go in. I had poor dental work done 10 years ago Dr. Bagley came in on his day off to take extra time and special techniques to ensure my comfort while he worked on my teeth so I wouldn't be in pain any longer. His staff was super friendly and nice and so accommodating it was the best experience I've ever had! Go to him and you will not be disappointed.

Like others, I was a patient of the previous dentist for years and was nervous with the change; however, Dr. Bagley is a great dentist and I am very happy. Great dentist! Great Staff!

I was a patient of the previous dentist that owned this practice for a long time. When I met Dr Bagley, I was very nervous. He had a different style from my previous dentist, but with his laid back boyish charm, he put me at ease right away. Some of his philosophies are a little different from the previous dentist but he took the time to explain why he felt the way he did, and even "googled" research for me! He's confident in what he believes and after meeting him I trust my dental care to he and his staff ( who are great!) 100%!

I am very pleased with Dr Bagley as my dentist, he's great! He has the most up to date office I have ever seen! Very thorough... He not only takes digital x rays but close up pictures of your teeth as well. Then he takes the time to show you what is going on and explains all your options for treatment. He really tries hard to work with his patients! Great job Dr Bagley! And thanks to your awesome staff too who works very well with you!

Dr. Bagley and his staff are the best! They have taken such great care of me and my family. Dr. Bagley goes above and beyond to explain all the options available if we need dental work beyond our cleanings. The staff is very helpful and knowledgeable in their respective areas of expertise. One of the most convenient things about Bagley Family Dentistry is they see patients of ALL ages. I would recommend this practice to anyone!

While Dr Bagley's staff is very friendly, professional and curtious, I don't care for Dr Bagley. During my second appointment with him, the dental hygenist looked at my new xrays and told me what she saw and what Dr Bagley might say. Dr Bagley didn't explain anything to me and just agreed with the dental hygenist. I haven't had a cavity in years, then suddenly when he takes over the practice, I have three - all which need immediate work. If I had changed my diet and didn't brush 3x a day, floss at night and rinse with Crest Pro-Health daily - I might just think that I have cavities. I'm not going back to him.
