Got my implant done here and it went well. Also teeth cleaning and cavity fill ins. Service is great, friendly workers, Dr. Choi is very nice and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend. Today got teeth cleaned and also she found two small cavities and did it on the same day. Did not need numbing shots phew. The entire process took less than 30 mins. Yay They call a day before to confirm your appointment. Make sure you show up to your appointment or they are losing out on business and that is not right. I showed up on time, I went in right away no wait. Wanted my fiancé to go here too but they don't take Cigna hmo plan. Ppl plan yes. read more

Only came in twice so far for a root canal and they were the best dental experiences I'd ever had. Staff is wonderful and accommodating (I came an hour late for my appointment - don't do this, but they didn't charge me a cancellation fee and still took me). Mr./Dr. Choi is very skilled and kind. Procedures were quick and painless. read more

This dentist lacks customer care and quite frankly it does not matter if your tooth is in an emergency half falling off cracked - if you are late even by a minute you will be reprimanded. If you are late even by a minute - the second time you will be expelled and you will no longer be welcome there . I was kicked out a year and a half ago. For being late twice. However my tooth needed to be extracted immediately and was in much pain - I scheduled an appt at this office since they took my insurance and over 18 months had passed. When I got there the front desk asked me if I've been there before , I replied maybe a while ago . The receptionist then tells me to not lie and said they knew I was a previous patient - despite my tooth emergency- they turned me down and said since I violated their 2 chance tardy policy they will never accept me as a patient again . I wondered why they even scheduled my appointment. I was late by 7 minutes first time and by 5 min the second time . While I was having this conversation in disbelief- i noticed that the dentist was present and listening. My tooth was in so much pain I plead humbly to her for another chance , a fresh start for a new year . she did not even respond to me. the office was completely empty also. If you would like to see a dentist with no empathy that disciplines the patients like it was high school . This is your dentist right here . She does not even give the standard 3 chances , with this dentist it's 2 strikes and you're out. read more

I went for teeth cleaning because yelp gave a rating of 4.3 at Dr. Ki Choi dentist office. Appointment was on time and most of the workers greeted me friendly. However, the hygienist, who cleaned my teeth spoke in a low tone where I made out that she said "the x-ray is okay". I did not see her face when the hygienist greeted me. She started the cleaning and clean my teeth. Then, she rubbed the white mint cleaner on my front teeth and left the room. She did not finish polish the white mint on the molars. Usually, from past experience, the dentist cleans my teeth thoroughly and polishes all the teeth. The hygienist cleaned my teeth partially and left the room without saying bye. I did not see her face. read more

I visited several times, but the customer service was not good. Inhye Choi DDS does the scaling roughly. The prices of implants and crowns are not accurate. I had an implanter procedure done last year, but it cost me $300 more. read more

Pretty great dentistry. I came in for a emergency and luckily, Dr. Choi saw me on the day I called and also accepted my insurance. The dental office is located on the second floor of a Korean Bakery. The layout of the a building is kinda weird. You gotta walk through the bakery and up the stairs to the Dentistry. There is a small parking lot out back but I wouldn't recommend parking there. Spaces are narrow and a bit difficult to maneuver in and out of. I can only imagine how many people's cars has been bumped and scuffed over the years in this lot. I recommend parking on Springfield Blvd or any side street surrounding the Dental office. There's plenty of street parking in this residential area. When I went in to see Dr Choi, she was very kind and professional. My lower gums were severely swollen for the past few days and required surgery. However the oral surgeon just finished his day. She scheduled me to come back the following day and it couldn't of gone any better. Dr. Choi numb my gums pretty good, then her staff gave me a good cleaning, then the oral surgeon came to bring me some relief to my swollen gums that looked like they were about to burst. He made a few incisions to my gums, cleaned it out and worked on it for roughly 15-20 minutes. The procedure didn't really hurt, it was just mainly the pressure he was applying on my mouth and tongue while he was working. He stitched me up well, the bleeding was very minimal. I bled for about less than a day and the swelling dramatically reduced. I went back a week later and Dr Choi removed the stitches. Verdict - a very surprisingly pleasant experience at a dentistry. I've been to numerous dental offices over the years, low end, high end, even dental offices overseas, and I can honestly say my experience at Dr Choi's office trumps them all. She acted very swiftly upon the urgency of my situation. The relief to my gums was almost immediate after taking the medication she prescribed and having the surgery done the following day. For the first time, I felt like the dentist really took care of me and for that I am thankful. I will be returning to Dr Choi's office for all future dental work from now on. read more

See all

I had a broken front tooth that I've been trying to get fixed. Other dentists that take my insurance kept horsing around and not submitting claims etc. because I guess the insurance company doesn't pay them enough to do the work. I went to Dr. Choi, desperate because my tooth is getting worse by the day and she hooked me up. Didn't have any pain or issues with Dr. Choi. I arrived at my appointment, was taken straight to the back and she took very good care of me. I am forever in her debt because I have my smile back again. I've been telling everybody about her because she was so caring and thorough with everything, which I greatly appreciate it after being given the runaround by other dentists. Thank you Dr. Choi! read more

Doctor Ki Chul Choi made a huge dental work for me - multiple crowns, implants, bone augmentation surgery. He could do everything. There was one tooth that 3 dentists suggested to remove as soon, as possible, but Dr.Ki Chul Choi told me that he will try to save it. And he did! He cut the gum, clean the teeth deep down and fix it back. I was really impressed. He is very honest with the patients, never looks for profit, as a lot of other dentist doing. He always suggested the best way to help patients. God bless golden hands of Dr. Ki Chul Choi! Tatiana Tikhonko read more

Ok, So I went to see this dentist in Dec 2020. I was having pain in my tooth that was causing headaches. I went to this dentist who first took X-rays and a cleaning. It was by far the worst cleaning I have ever had. It was so rushed. With the x-rays, cleaning and what else she did, I was in and out of there in like an hour. It was the least thorough cleaning I've ever had. Then she said I may need a root canal and she could tell where my pain was from my reaction to her cleaning and exam. The exam was even less thorough than the cleaning! She put a filling on the tooth that was hurting because she needed to submit the authorization for the root canal to my insurance. 2 months go by and I hear nothing from this office. I didn't know my root canal was approved until my insurance company sent me a letter saying it was approved. I never once got a call from the office to inform me. Then I went back, she asked how my tooth was and I told her there was no pain since my last visit, she then told me that I probably didn't need the root canal then and she would put more filling on the tooth to cover the spot that was causing me pain. she first had to clean the area, had she did the cleaning correctly the first time, she wouldn't of had to re-clean the area. When I left, while I wasn't in pain, my tooth was more sensitive again. I was not happy. She didn't even tell me if I needed anything else done based on my exam. I didn't even get the welcome kit that all dentists give you the first time you go (toothbrush, floss, information etc..). On top of that, I logged into my insurance and checked the claim she submitted from Dec. She put she did 3 fillings one in the tooth that I came in about, one in another tooth next to it (which she didn't touch) and one on the bottom(which she also did not go near). So she fraudulently claimed to my insurance that she did things that she did not. When my insurance company called to ask about this, the person on the phone pretended not to understand anything the agent was saying (they speak English in there even though they are Korean). So my insurance company couldn't get her on the phone. After I got off the phone with the insurance company, I called the office and got the machine and stated that I noticed she claimed more and that I contacted the insurance company and they are going to investigate it for fraud. Not even 2 minutes later the dentist called me back. Her explanation was that she added the extra stuff to the claim so I wouldn't have to pay a co-pay (which is BS because my insurance pays 100% preventative. I only would of had to pay 50% of the root canal). She then said if she had to adjust it, that I would need to pay them the co-pay. So she fraudulently claims things on insurance and states its to save her patients money, no, it's to line her pockets. If you are a patient of hers, I advise you to check your claims (most people do not, and I'm sure she knows that). Now my insurance company is investigating and also asked me to go to another dentist and have them confirm that she did not do what she said (it would be easy for them to tell if a filling is new or not). Probably the worst experience and Dentist I have ever gone to in my 45 years of life. For sure the worst cleaning and exam I've gotten in my 45 years of life. I don't understand how she has such high ratings (which is what made me go to her in the first place). I DO NOT recommend this dentist at all. read more

l was looking for a dentist that accepted my insurance and the google reviews were pretty good. I am extremely nervous about doctors so this was no exception. I remained very nervous during my X-Rays, after which i began crying and was consoled then. Dr Choi told me i'd have to get my one broken tooth extracted and she could get started prepping me ASAP. I being nervous, opted to wait and she suggested I see an oral surgeon due to my nervousness. I agreed, and I received a cleaning. The cleaning was good, a little painful at times but the hygienist would get 4 stars from me for being so patient with my crying and nervousness. I left and attempted to find an oral surgeon to extract my tooth ASAP, within my network, with little luck. Dr. Choi spoke to my mom on the phone reassuring that she could do the extraction if we need to get it out and that it would be okay. I agreed, and later, she went back on her word and said another doctor would be doing the procedure- an oral surgeon himself. That was scary as I gained trust in her, but proceeded to come in the next day. We waited in the waiting room for about a half hour to be told that they are not comfortable taking out the tooth, the one they almost hastily removed in the first place. We were also informed the doctor that was going to take out my tooth is in fact NOT an oral surgeon... They prescribed me an antibiotic and I was on my way. I am so disappointed in the disorganization of this practice. I could have gotten past the slightly messy offices if they weren't so sketchy when it came to giving a straight answer with confidence to me and my family. Will never return back here again, which is sad because the staff seem nice enough, just incredibly flustered and unorganized. read more

I was looking for a new dentist near my house and found Choi Dental Care (Ki Chul Choi, DDS & Inhye Choi, DDS) . I went  there for a regular checkup and cleaning. Since I didn't have any cavities or problems with my teeth, what I had was simple checkup and cleaning. A little while later, I received Explanation of Benefit-Claim Summary from my insurance company saying that I got 2 Resin-Based Composites from my visit to this dentist.  I called the dentist, and they said it was a mistake. I asked them to correct this, they said they will.  And of course I didn't go back there for my next checkup because I didn't like their so-called mistake.   It's been 7-8 months, I checked my insurance company website  and found out that wrong claim was still there.  I called my insurance company, and they said they didn't get any corrected form from the dentist.  I called the dentist, and they said there's no one who can fix this now.  Oh, did I mention that they never apologized for this at all?   Now I know for sure that it was not a mistake.  They claimed to insurance company for services that they didn't even provide.   How sleazy!  Seriously. read more

Dr. Ki Chul Choi is the best! I used to come see him as a child when I had a lot of cavities, but lately I needed a root canal and two crowns and he did it so well. My brother had his braces done by him when he was little. Dr. Choi has over 40 years of experience so of course he knows what he's doing. And when I revisited him as an adult, he still had my childhood chart!! He's awesome. I would recommend him to everyone I know. I can't trust my teeth to just any dentist, and I can trust him. I also know he went to the top school Seoul University (like Harvard) back in Korea. He's very fair in price for his work. I highly recommend him. read more

Dr. Choi, his hygienist, and the entire staff are very professional and very courteous. I never had as good a dental experience as I had with this office. I had a wisdom tooth extracted and it was complicated due to a bent root, but Dr. Choi was patient, concerned about my comfort, and he was able to complete the extraction. I also had x-rays taken and a cleaning, and both the dental assistant and the dental hygienist were thoroughly professional and very caring about my comfort. Needless to say, I will be going back; and if you live in or anywhere near Bayside, Queens, I highly recommend Dr. Choi. read more

my mother and i are both hispanic women. i was recommened choi dental by a korean co worker. i have always had great experiences with koreans so i was excited to go to this dentist office. the appointment was for my mother and mine was scheduled a few weeks after hers. we scheduled this appointment for a cleaning and xrays. my mother has felt several cavities throughout the years and this was her first time in a dentist after 12 plus years. on the day of the appointment we arrived 17 minutes late because there was a thunderstorm and i also have a 3 year old autistic toddler. when i got to the front desk i wasnt even greated by inhye choi. she just asked for my name and i told her the appointment was for my mother and gave her my mothers name. inhye choi's face immediatly changed she looked so bothered by me and told me we were 20 minutes late. i apologized to her and told her it was because of traffic, the storm and finding the location was also difficult because its behind and on the second floor of a bakery, i also asked her if the doctor would still be able to see my mother because i knew there could be a possibility the doctor couldnt due to other peoples appointments ( there was no other patient in that office at the time) . she said " i am the doctor " and didnt answer my question. right away she handed me the patient form and said " fill it out and i need the insurance card and id and is she here for a cleaning? " she spoke to me with such a nasty tone and had a bothered look. i answered her and said " yes and she feels some cavities so maybe we can make follow up appointments to treat those cavities. i didnt say anything else to her in regards to how she was treating me because i already felt bad enough we were late. after i handed her the insurance and id i sat down to fill out the form for my mother and i went back and gave it to inhye choi. a few minutes later she called my mothers name from the back of the office where the rooms were so my mom looked me confused as to where she should go because all we heard was a distant call of her name. so i told her "i guess through that door go and check" and my mother looked in through the door and i guess saw the doctor and said "yes" to me. thats when i realized ok something isnt right here. i was actually afraid the whole 15-20 minutes my mom was in there. when my mother came out i realized inhye choi had just left my moms insurance card and id on the corner of the reception desk and never told me she placed it back there. so i went up and grabbed it. the doctor came out and said " everything is good see you in 6 months " so i said "ok thank you" and i proceeded to leave. when we left the office my mother was devasted. she said inhye choi was so rough on her during the cleaning. i asked her about the cavities and my mother said " she did an xray on me and told me i had no cavities and i asked her again is she sure? because i feel them and she said there is no cavities everything is good again"we were so devasted leaving that office. we called up bell dental care right away and made an appointment.2 days later we went into bell dental care and the doctor said my mother had more than 6 cavities and that she needed the xrays from choi dental(the insurance wouldnt cover a 2nd xray 2 days later)to be able to give my mom a better diagnosis of how many cavities she has and how bad they are. choi dental sent me the xrays and my mother has a total of 3 lengthy appointments with bell dental care because of the amount of cavities and work she needs done. i cant believe this happened to us but we will never go back here. i feel discriminated and was lied too by this so called doctor inhye choi. read more

My 90 year old grandfather went to this dentist for a CLEANING. The dentist then told him that he need to have a few teeth extracted. My grandfather, being 90 and way too trusting, agreed to do whatever procedures the dentist ordered. The dentist did not check the patient's medical records, which if he had, he would have known that he was taking multi anti-coagulants, which prevent blood from clotting..which therefore caused 4 hours of bleeding after the extraction of his tooth. The dentist then went on to order dentures that are specifically designed to fit my grandfather's teeth. In the process of these visits, my grandfather's insurance changed. He showed the employees his new information, and they "forgot" to get authorization for his dentures. So.. my grandfather, who couldn't eat for days due to his missing teeth, go back to this dentist and ask for the dentures. The doctor flat out refused to give him the dentures, and demanded that my 90 year old grandfather pay in cash the ridiculous amount of money for dentures that would not fit on any other person. Obviously, due to the fact that THEIR staff messed up, they should have at least helped him temporarily until they received the insurance auth. Instead, he had to go back home without being able to eat for the next entire week. I would never, ever recommend this office to anyone. read more
