Unfortunately Dr. Tuft performed two fillings for me which turned out to be of very poor quality - leaving rotting underneath her fillings. The first bad procedure was brought to light by constant ongoing pain following the filling. I went back to Dr. Tuft and the problem was treated by sanding down the filling. After the pain spread up my face and towards the ear and i suffered some face swelling she eventually figured out that i needed a root canal. This bad filling caused 4 months of discomfort. After this episode i never went back to Dr. Tuft. The second rotten filling was discovered three months later by another dentist - who thankfully managed to remove the filling, clean out underneath (very deep into the tooth) and save me from another root canal. I do not recommend this dentist. One mistake might be forgiveable (although it turned into a very painful and expensive mistake). Two mistakes suggest better steer clear.
