Fast Braces - DO NOT GET THEM

ORIGINAL POST

I've had these braces on for over three years now....

I've had these braces on for over three years now. I initially went to my Dentist requesting an implant to be put in and she recommended me getting braces first to ensure the implant does not adjust. She told me FastBraces was my best option and I would have them on for about a year. IT'S BEEN 3 YEARS! She will not move my appointments any closer (6-8) weeks and I have brackets that were never put on that she refuses to do without charging me additional fees. I would never recommend FastBraces or Dr. Tongela Williams in Clinton, Maryland for anyone! I sincerely wish I would've gone the traditional route because it seems as though these braces are now a permanent fixture. I have no end date and the treatment is not even remotely aggressive. I am beyond disappointed.

Wait times are ridiculous! There is constant turnover of staff in the office and I cannot wait to see another professional.

Thank you for sharing this experience and helping people. You spent a lot ($5K) on "FastBraces" that are anything but fast and the time it's taken (3 years) vs. the timeframe promised (1 year) with no end in sight and they want more $$ seems unfair. You could advise this dentist or office manager that they leave you no choice but to go to another dentist (one highly recommended) and you expect her to either pay the bill -OR- refund a significant amount of your money. (Do not tell her which dentist.) If she refuses to either assist in that -or- move this along in her office for you, I would convey you intend to take further action including filing formal complaints, etc. Of course, you don't want to do this but if she doesn't offer you some relief she leaves you no choice. Now.... I don't know what you signed in her office or what your conversations were, only you know that. But taking some type of action rather than sitting back and accepting this seems fair. The dentist may blame the slow progress on the brackets you don't want to pay for but aren't FastBraces a specific product to produce a specific outcome within a particular price range? It seems the doctor's responsibility to attach the braces and all required components at the price quoted, within the expected timeframe to produce the results expected. Seems none of that has happened? I wish you all the best and hope you are on the road to resolution soon!

I can't stand Dr. Tongela Williams, she is psycho for real. I was there last summer, her husband was divorcing her and had his truck repossessed from her at her office. She and her hoodrat staff went outside trying to fight the tow truck driver. The husband had to get a restraining order against her. So unprofessional and she is RUDE as hell

Court again? sweetie we know it is you. And we agree, the current wife is not a looker at all. We saw your pictures. And when your BMI is 30-31 you shouldn't call anyone else obese because that is the category that you are in too. And we've seen pics off you WITHOUT your weave, your braided wig etc, and you are just as bald headed. What kind of Army wife conducts herself in this manner? It's our understanding that you can't help yourself and that you have a history of this. Also new wife, I hope you know about the sidechick that works in your department. And no you aren't MISSBEAUTIFULTOANYONE. You are just as ugly and insecure on the outside too. Come on to court so we can subpoena your husband to testify that you had a BBL in June to confirm that your are leaving harassing reviews on this site, google, and every other medical website. But hey, I guess you can't turn a hoe into a housewife but the tried it.

Act like you are happy then because your behavior says otherwise. FYI, if you are on the internet calling others [RS bleep] and hoes, you really don't have an argument for harassment......MissMiserabletoUs.... :-)
