I started going to Lucie Dental in 2023 and had great experiences at first—routine cleanings, x-rays, and even a wisdom tooth referral that went perfectly. That changed in April 2025, when I got four cavities filled by Dr. Scott Azari. Immediately after the procedure on April 15th, 2025, I felt sharp pain every time I bit down (soft or hard food) on the teeth where I got the fillings done and my second molar also looked visibly smaller than the one on the other side. I called the office (who were always polite and helpful), and they scheduled a free follow-up for May 6th, 2025. On May 6th, 2025 nearly a month later, I returned, still unable to chew on one side. The issue still wasn’t resolved after this visit, so I went back again the next day on May 7th, 2025. That’s when things got worse. Dr. Azari filed down my second molar into a point—leaving it tiny, thin, and nothing like my natural teeth. This created a gap in between the molar, which prior to all of this my teeth did not have that. When I told him it hurt and looked wrong, he brushed it off and seemed annoyed. I was told the visual of the tooth is not what I came in for, and as long as it didn’t hurt that’s what mattered. I left the office in tears with an over-filed and pointy tooth and I STILL COULD NOT EAT FROM THE PAIN. That night, while gently flossing, the filling fell out completely. I was left with a misshapen pointy molar, visual gap, and a hole in-between two teeth from the filling falling out. This entire experience has been deeply traumatic. I’ve never had dental issues before this, perfectly healthy teeth, and now my teeth are permanently altered. While I did receive a partial refund and found a new, competent dentist to repair the damage, the original shape and integrity of my natural tooth are gone and that’s something that I can never get back. Do not go to Dr. Scott Azari and please do your research on any Dentist before going to them. He filed my tooth down to nothing, and my filling fell out. No one should have to go through this.
