I trusted this dentist, thinking he really wanted to help me, and that the end result would be so gratifying and worth every dollar. After agreeing to his plan, spending over $10,000.000 over the two year period it involved, we finally came down to the very last step of affixing the teeth onto the implants placed into my jawbone, and he says to me, "sorry, but you need to find another dentist". When asked why, he simply replied,"because I decided not to complete this, and I no longer am your dentist". I was astounded and could not believe what I was hearing, nor could I understand why. The advertisement states, 'dental implants from start to finish' and is an outright lie and false advertisement as I so well found out. I left that day with three implanted steel rods surgically placed into my jaw, and no teeth to cover them. I was completely horrified and could not believe this could happen. I finally found a dentist that had made a special made denture that fits over the implants, costing me $8,000.000 in itself. Otherwise, to complete the implants would cost me $18,000.00, which I could not afford. So this whole procedure with the two needed surgeries and two year healing periods was all for nothing and a complete waste of money as the
implants are there for no reason whatsoever. I also had suffered nerve damage after one surgery, leaving my bottom lip always numb. I had spoke to various lawyers, but the majority would only deal with such a case if there was a death involved. The one lawyer who stated he would take the case held onto my x-rays and file for a long time, without accomplishing anything, until the statue of limitations finally ran out.

Upon finding a new dentist, turns out Dr. Gagne would repeatedly call him wanting to discuss my case and get his opinion, so I believe that he did not follow through because he was unsure of what to do.  All I know is he never offered me any refund, and left me in a horrible state of mind. I can not believe that someone can honestly do this to another, and get away with it. All of my savings went to him, as well as all the time needed, all for nothing. I truly hope this does not happen to another, and I can honestly state you can not believe anything that you read. His advertisement is completely untrue.

Though he does offer greatly reduced prices, you pay for the incompleted work tenfold. I thought of him as such a nice and caring person, yet a nice and caring person would never have done this to another.
