Dr. John Robert Popper

He did good work but his hygienist was way too rough and after I complained to them about her roughness, they told me I could no longer be a patient there. Also. "Dr Popper" used to give me novacaine injections in the corner of where my upper and lower jaws meet, even to try to numb teeth that were nowhere near that area. It would take longer there for the numbness to set in, and often times he'd have to give me repeat injections to that same area, to numb teeth that were in front, as if he were trying to cause pain intentionally. You be the judge. He did good work but his hygienist was way too rough and after I complained to them about her roughness, they told me I could no longer be a patient there. Also.

I absolutely recommend Dr. Popper and his staff. They make you feel like part of their family not just a patient. They have great bedside manner as well.

Both John (the dentist) and Tracy (the dental assistant) were so so nice, I was having severe tooth pain and needed an extraction and they did everything to help me. I'm so used to being judged by dental staff because I have such bad teeth, but they were very understanding and not judgemental or harsh at all. I have no insurance and it was more affordable than times I've gone to other places for the same service with insurance. The facility itself is very clean, and the receptionist was very informative and polite. I will most likely go to this dentist from now on.

Amazing doctor, definitely best dentists I've seen in my adult life. I would recommend him to everyone.

Dr. Popper is a wonderful dentist and prosthodontist. He is professional, caring, and a perfectionist. My case was certainly not an easy one and Dr. Popper has gone above and beyond to remediate my situation. He has worked tirelessly and continuously to make sure my implants fit precisely. He has worked hand in hand with the oral surgeon and the lab staff on my implants to ensure that I had the best possible outcome. He has come into the office after hours, on weekends, and on holidays to help me when I have encountered a situation with my implants. The hygienists, assistants, and all of the office staff are friendly, helpful, and professional. I would never go anywhere else. Dr. Popper is a wonderful dentist and prosthodontist.

I can’t recommend Dr. Popper enough. I ground my teeth badly and had a dentist pressure me to have $35,000 in work done saying losing my teeth was imminent. I went to another dentist for a second opinion and he sent me to Dr. Popper who said I needed the work but we could wait 3-5 years with a good guard. He had the first guard that ever stayed in at night made for me and we made it 8 years. He did the work for 75% less using zirconia (not cheap) and the results are fantastic. I told him my teeth feel 20 again! There’s a reason other dentists refer their complex cases to Dr. Popper. I can’t recommend Dr. Popper enough.

Great guy!! Very satisfied with my partial denture. He takes time with each patient. If you’re in a hurry he is NOT the one to see, but if you want an excellent result & have patience, he’s the best in the Tri Cities. His staff rocks ~ love those ladies!!!

He did good work but his hygienist was way too rough and after I complained to them about her roughness, they told me I could no longer be a patient there. Also. "Dr Popper" used to give me novacaine injections in the corner of where my upper and lower jaws meet, even to numb teeth that are nowhere near that area. It would take longer there for the numbness to set in, and often times he'd have to give me repeat injections to that same area to numb teeth that were in front. You be the judge. Does it take a rocket scientist to see what type of person he is or a few down votes from him and his staff or family members? What competent dentist would inject people in the arch of their mouth -- the most sensitive part of their mouth to numb teeth that are far away from that? It's as if he was trying to hurt me intentionally, as well as his "rough" hygienist. He's a scary creature and they can't be trusted. It's like they were trying to cause me discomfort and I'm sure they did.

I thought hard before posting this but I think it's important to future patients. 30 years ago I began searching for a way to improve my gummy smile due to medication I'd taken as an epileptic destroying my adult teeth. He was close to where I worked and fairly new, so we needed each other so to speak. Fast forward to last year when I returned to him to make me a bottom plate. I had already been wearing a top plate for 8 years and it was so well made it didn't have to be glued in and I still ate all my favorite foods including apples and almonds. I wanted to see if he could make a bottom that would allow me to keep my top and work together. He assured me that he could and he had worked small miracles with me in the 80's. I told him that due to me becoming disabled my income was nil and I needed to know how much because I'd have to borrow the money. He started saying I needed a wisdom tooth cut out on top because a denture could stimulate it to erupt. It hadn't caused it to in 8 years and I told him no, just the bottom. I went to get my extraction on the bottom and woke up with both dentures in. I removed them that night and realized he had still put in a request to the surgeon to remove it. I was upset when I showed up the next day for adjustments but didn't say much hoping it would still be ok. I was told I'd have to get a new top denture and that I should quit smoking because I stink. I left angry and cancelled my next appointment. I finally called and made another because I needed help and the follow ups were included in the original price. I couldn't afford to pay someone else for fixing the fact that I couldn't get either of them to stay in with any type of denture adhesive and certainly couldn't eat. He messed with them for a few minutes then took them in another room and came back stuck the top in with a soft filler and asked me if I wanted the bottom done and I asked, does it have to be and he said it would be $350. I said you know I don't have that. That I had discussed this with him knowing I had to borrow it. He said, "well then we are done here". I didn't want the top messed with and nothing I said about what I wanted was dismissed with a flick of his hand and being told I still stink. Now I'm still repaying the loan and neither denture works now, so I'm stuck with no money, no teeth and his advice was glue the top in and toss the bottoms if I didn't like them. I hate even leaving my house or meeting new people and stay depressed and I still stink. He has become so arrogant and He stinks too.

He has been my dentist for about 14 years now. Very professional to say the least. I have been very satisfied with him. He is very good and goes above and beyond to help. If there is any problems, he is very aggressive to resolve your situation. I have had a lot of work done from him and I have been very pleased with his work!

I have been seeing Dr.Popper for over 20 years as well as all my family. My sister would fly in to come see Dr. Popper from northern Kentucky . And my mother from Arkansas. Dr. Popper personal has done all my crown work from inlays to onlays to full gold crowns which was done back in 1998. And I am just now starting to replace my inlays and onlays with full porcelain growns. I do recall him casting several of these himself which says alot about his experience and his specialty. He is the only one I have trusted because of his experience with crowns and bridge work. He has also helped with my Tmj issues making a splint. That has been life changing with my headaches. I would recommend him to anyone and his staff always go above and beyond for patient care.

I never write reviews, but I’m warning you to run! My visit was for my partial to be sent off to the lab and repaired, no biggie you would think?! Since he specializes in this service...wrong! It is in worse condition now than it was, and I can’t even wear it at all now! So next week I’m going to a dentist to have his mess fixed which means more time and money on my end! He was paid in cash and once that happens he doesn’t care about his patients. He’s an arrogant, rude man. While I’m in the chair he told his assistant to tie his shoes because she wasn’t doing anything?! He also was so rough that I ended up with mouth blisters and in my 40 years that has never happened. I’ve had my partial for over 8 years with zero problems! The issue he was suppose to correct was a tooth broke off of it and when it came in the tooth needed to be filed down “some” he filed it all the way to the metal!!! And he messed up the attachment that holds in my mouth, it broke off completely after 2 days. RUN!

He's full of himself.He made my partial and my reg. dentist refused to put them in my mouth.!! There were 3 missing teeth both lower his partial had 1 tooth on one 2 on the other side why not like mold showed? Yes he's only dentist with his credentials,but I'd send no one there.He got mad because I called BC&BS about EOB didn't understand he'd been paid and I'd had no partial;which is not allowed and Dr. knew that therefore ;he was mad and wouldn't let hygienist clean my teeth next due visit and she was excellent as is the rest of his staff.He even suggested that people get $ from 401 Ks to do implants and he knew I'd been forced on social security before age 40 so what monies?? Be nice but average person can't do that and in my opinion that's his bottom line so don't insult him as he'll kick you out without proper fitting teeth.
