  • I was visiting Valley Dental as a new patient. I was given some Xrays and had some pictures taken, and Dr. Varda identified a cavity (which seemed legitimate). He also reviewed the depths of my gum pockets, and these were all 2-3mms. He then proceeded to diagnose me with periodontal disease and told me I needed a rather invasive "scaling" done, which is a 3 hour procedure and costs around $550 after Cigna insurance. I did a bit of research and discovered that 4mm and above are considered appropriate depths to prescribe the scaling procedure. I called my trusted dentist from home and he was appalled that Dr. Varda recommended this to me, stating that having reviewed my records from my last visit that unless I had taken up meth, there was no way this procedure was close to necessary,and that I may have mild amounts of gingivitis at worst. He told me that this is a way that dentists bring in a lot of money. My dentist from home explained that even in cases where patients have 4mm pockets, he recommends getting them on a flossing regiment to see if it can be reduced by the next appointment to avoid scaling. This was not even suggested to me. I just can't recommend this office.
