"I am not one to complain. I thought that I could trust Dr Chips. Dont let his happy go lucky demeanor fool you. I had gotten my dental implant after dealing with health issues. They were put it around Covid. Due to so many restrictions it was difficult to visit as much as I had needed. The main issue could never fully be addressed. The issue being that the dental pieces never fit in my mouth, therefore never stayed in. They would still fit me in but instead of ever fixing the issues they merely masked them. I was reassured several times that it would be taken care of. I believed him because of how much I liked him as a person. I had been to the office endlessly just to get the snap band pieces replaced. He filed the parts, toyed, and tinkered with them but again never properly fit the pieces in my mouth. I had told him of all of these issues from the start. He would pretend to address it. I said pretend because he would reassure me he knew what needed done, but then never did anything to fix the issue. He is well aware that if I sneeze, the pieces literally fly out of my mouth. Again, this was immediate. They didnt fly out of my mouth the first day but they did within a week. Just because they didnt fly out doesnt mean that they clicked in. The issue was pushed due to Covid, empty promises, and me feeling bad for both myself and Dr Tim Chips. I felt bad because this is embarrassing in ways I cannot explain. I felt bad for Dr Chips because of liking his personality. Noone wants to have to go through this. To pay a larger amount than many dentists just to continually go through terrible pain, endless driving back and forth (over an hour away, and yes he knows this), and having to miss work/school. He assured me that I would be happy with the end result. I have communication through the years of me explaining how they dont fit properly. After so much time of being assured all will work out, they then sent me a bill for bands to the dentures. Yes it had been two years since I had them done but they were never done properly. At each and every appointment I spoke of this and he said it would be fixed. The bands are meant to hold them in place better. Bands that only help with paste to keep them in. Bands and dentures that never stayed snug in my mouth for more than an hour. I can tell you never once did I say I was happy or even satisfied. His merry attitude misled me into believing he would do whats right and keep his word. I paid just under a half of a hundred grand. I never got what I paid for. Yet, they sent me a bill for bands. Which that day Im being billed for they didnt even have the right size bands. I had to have the next size (one that doesnt hold properly). Regular dentures wouldve been better. The implant posts have rubbed on the denture since day one. My gums have receded from constant pain from this rubbing. I cant cough or sneeze without both pieces literally flying out of my mouth. I look like I have a chew in my mouth 24/7. This has changed my outlook on life and self-esteem in ways I wish for noone. Its wrong. It took me a long time to finally write this. I am so embarrassed, I prefer not to tell people. The idea was that people wouldnt realize my teeth because they were meant to stay in; look and feel great. I cry everyday. I do not wish or want this to happen to you. If you like you can message me and I will send you more info, pictures, etc. Shame on Dr Chips and his practice. Oh I forgot, the post and arch he placed in my mouth wasnt even properly placed. Now my smile is crooked and teeth do not align AT ALL! Which isnt half as bad as them shooting out of my mouth but REALLY!?"

"I've only been a patient for a handful of visits but so far this dentist office has been a very good fit for me. Amanda does a thorough job cleaning and does an exceptional job making sure you're comfortable. I feel like I've been a patient much longer than I have been only because I feel like they have such a vested interest in my well-being and they're always so kind. I was nervous to learn I needed my first root canal a couple weeks ago. They got me in later that week to have it done and it was super painless and a smooth finish. I recommend them for your teeth needs!"

"I just saw a commercial for chips dental. So they have the money to make commercials but they can't finish a root canal and leave holes in the patients teeth. Also, the father is experienced. However, his son can't do an implant if his life depended on it. They fall out of your mouth. So do yourself a favor and don't ever get an implant from the son unless you want them to fall out of your mouth. They don't treat their patients like family. They belittle them and treat them like garbage."

"Drs John and Tim are great at making you feel like you are part of the family. From the moment I was first in contact with Lisa at the North Hills office, I felt like I was meeting a friend and that's how I have felt with just about everyone else there. Chips is also connected to some of the finest specialists in town, so if you need advanced care, you'll always be in good hands!"

"I have been going to Chips Dental for years now. I cannot say enough good things about the staff and the doctors. They make me feel right at home and are so friendly an informative. I do have a fear of the dentist and in the past have always had a hard time getting through even the easiest appointment until I started at Chips Dental. They make me feel at ease and do everything they can to calm down the anxiety I felt during an appointment. I do their sedation dentistry for any appointments that involve more in depth treatment and I will say that along with the staff's ability to help a patient feel comfortable and relaxed during any visit is the best experience I have ever had at a dentist office. Thank you so much for every time I have been in there!"
