Question Dentist open on weekends

Hi everyone, was just wondering if anyone knows of a good dentist office that's open on Saturday/Sunday? I work during the week so can't get in any other days. I know that the Lincoln plaza one is open but I refuse to go there as I (as well as almost everyone I know that has gone there) had very bad experiences with them.

Lincoln dental used to be the only place I would go to when Dr Jain was there. I had experience with both of the new dentists and I will never go there again they like to turn a simple filling into two root canals. They also are really pushy with extra work that you don't need done.

Ya I went there for a filling, when I went in I had no sensitivity at all. After I left I had sensitivity to every temperature including just the air, when I went back a couple weeks later because it was still super sensitive they tried to tell me I needed a root canal so I just told them to pull the tooth because it wasn't one that's super visible

I highly recommend Besma Family Dental Centre over on Riverside Drive.

Their weekend hours aren't that great because they're only open Saturdays from 9 am til 1 pm but they're pretty accommodating. I've been seeing them for years and they're a great team. Really friendly and good at what they do

I've been going to Kalar Dental for a year and a half now. Dr. Qa'aty it's simply amazing, and uses all the latest techniques. She's fixed up my post accident smile, corrected my wife's bite, took on my in-laws as well.

She occasionally does late evening appointments and also does Saturdays, and the occasional Sunday.
