"I am rewriting this review and it went from 5 star to 1 star. After receiving a biopsy I was asked to pay for the biopsy up front and I did and after that I submitted the claim to my health insurance and they paid for the biopsy but Cumberland Dental refused to pay me my money back. After 4 calls to their office they stated they would audit my account and I still have not received my no money and the insurance company stated they have never received a bill. Dr Lee done a great job but his staff is terrible. I will not go back here."

"Dr. James Griffith and his team were amazing! I had a lot of anxiety about getting my wisdom teeth extracted, but Dr. Griffith explained everything very well and left me with no concerns. Surgery was done in about 30-40 mins and I had no pain at all afterwards. Little to no swelling either! Healed up quickly and well! Scheduling was also a breeze, they had appointments available after my consult as soon as a couple days later and the lady who does the scheduling/insurance was very kind and helpful."

"I came to get my wisdom teeth removed and Dr. Lee, Auttie, Court, and Destiny were all an amazing team to get to work with. Everything went so smooth and I was so comfortable with all of them! And Dr. Lee has been the only person to ever get an IV in my arm first try so that was amazing😂 Will definitely recommend them for any dental work and will return for any work I need. Fantastic office!"

"Absolutely wonderful experience with my 7 year old son.. He was born with a supernumerary tooth between his two front teeth. Dr. Lee put all of my worries to ease promptly on Monday afternoon and said he may have an opening Wednesday due to my son leaving state on Saturday. His staff worked us in 8 am Wednesday morning. It's a 2 hour drive one way, but it was so totally worth it. He explained everything to my son in a way he could understand it. My son was in and out (under anesthesia) in about 1.5hr start to finish. I was also impressed with Dr. Lee's career history. Being my child, i research heavily on the doctors we chose. Dr. Lee graduated in Chicago, then moved on to be chief resident at Vanderbuilt in Nashville. He even did some amazing things in Texas. I could not recommend a better DDS or MD for any dental matter!! Very professional and accomplished individual. He seems to have great empathy for his patients. Wonderful doctor, thank you so very much to you and your nurses!!!!!! (Ps thanks for the tooth he thinks its the coolest 🤣)"
