I visited Bayonne Smiles Center for the first time and had a great experience. The receptionist was…read morefriendly and my wait time was less than 10 minutes. I had already filled out the forms online so that saved a lot of time. First, I had x-rays taken and cleaning done by Gina who was very friendly and competent. Then, Dr Espinoza who was also very polite and friendly did the check up and recommendations. The office is in a quieter area of Bayonne so there was no problem finding street parking being that I'm a resident. Make sure you have a resident pass. If you're visiting from another town I would suggest parking on Broadway (metered parking). I'll keep going to Bayonne Smiles for my regular check up and treatment and will update my review afterwards.

I have been a patient more than 10 years and love that he has the same staff he had when I started! Beverly is sweet and funny, and Maria treats you like family. Dr alter has Sunday hours in the early morning, and that's so convenient for kids who play sports. Dr alter is really gentle and caring and checks on your comfort throughout your procedure. I have had no issues with his work, which include 2 implants, bonding on my front teeth and 3 recent cavities. He also changed some old silver fillings to white at my request. My only negative is that sometimes street parking is tough, but there is a public lot behind the school about a block away.

I am extremely happy to have found this dental office…read more The receptionist, Beverly is very welcoming, warm, kind, and helpful. Kathleen, the dental hygienist is very knowledgeable and helps you learn how to properly take care of your teeth and gums. She also gives the ABSOLUTE BEST teeth cleanings!

They keep you informed the whole way through and really listen to your concerns. They are very thorough and very caring. Also, this office is exceptionally clean. I would definitely recommend them to anyone needing dental care!

Their website (or ad) states they accept emergency visits and my insurance, yet they refused to treat him because they couldn't verify my insurance on the weekend. Instead of helping relieve his pain or offer a reasonable solution, they told me we'd have to pay $450-$600 out of pocket, with no guarantee of reimbursement. They showed no real concern for the urgency of husbands situation or the pain he was in. If you're in severe pain and expecting actual emergency care--as advertised--be warned.

I also spent 2 years in a hospital with AML Leukemia when I was a younger man so I'm extremely grateful for Dr's like Iwona who go that extra step to listen , understand your not a #, and really care.

I have been pricked ,prodded, biopsied , my whole life like a lab rat. If you are in need of a Dentist and don't see this angel here on earth there is something wrong with you, maybe you should be searching for a Psychologist instead. Don't let her accent fool you, this is the way all Medical professionals should be. Kind, courteous, concerned and caring. As a matter of fact as I am writing this , the Dr. herself just called to see how I was..with COVID happening you can't get a Dr. to answer the phone or give you the time of day, this woman just called me! She stressed if I needed anything to call including nights , Saturdays and Sundays! Who does that anymore! The Dr's son was her assistant and what a tremendous young man! Doc you should be as proud of him as you are of your practice which is by far THE BEST in my experience...and what you shared about what you had to do when you came to this beautiful country , to go to Dental School ( NYU I believe was one of the many degrees I saw on your wall) working jobs and how you pass those places now and smile, well you should, because you are not only the best Dentist/Surgeon I have had the pleasure of being treated by, you are truly a beautiful soul and a blessing to this stubborn SOB ! I believe there are no coincidences in life and God has a plan for us all. He nailed it when he chose you to be a Doctor! Thank you and God bless. If you want to be treated well and cared for by a genuine person you'd be crazy not to go meet the best Dentist around. Thanks Doc!

She paid him up front in cash. The crown fell off. He then charged her more to redo it. Nice right? The bridge he made was not done properly and will not fit. She cannot wear it. When she told him, he refused to do anything. He shrugged his shoulder and walked out of the room. This guy got his dds from a cracker jack box. He has zero compassion, zero care about folks, and is a terrible human being at best. I wish I was there to see him try to shrug at her and dismiss her. I'd bet he'd not have been as smug and arrogant with a man in his face. But ..karma is coming buddy. Treat elderly people on fixed income like trash. Your parents might st be very proud. Trashbag.

At this place the dentist i saw was too talkative and over friendly. I mean come on, i see you 2 times a year and no one enjoys going to the dentist....why do you need to converse so much.

This place is a total joke. The office was fully aware what company I had as my dental insurer. I…read morewas told they would accept my insurance by an unnamed secretary. An appointment was scheduled but my pain increased. I called the office and left a message asking if they could possibly fit me in earlier. The doctor himself called me late in the evening to confirm that I could come in on an earlier date. He assured me that they would work on me that day. I arrived slightly early to complete the lengthy paperwork. The paperwork stipulated who I had for insurance once again. For some bizarre reason the doctor asked me if I was employed full time. Obviously if he had read the forms I had just submitted he would have seen I was unemployed. A woman who barely spoke English took my x-rays. She told me she doesn't handle the insurance paperwork the person that does that will be coming in later in the week and I need to call her for the approval of the work. No work was done on the day despite the fact that a few days earlier the doctor himself called me assuring me that I will be relieved of pain on my first visit. I was told to call to speak to the receptionist to confirm that they had gotten approval for my root canal from my insurance company. I must have called 20 times to leave messages and to speak to an individual named Kayla. Each and every time I was given another more ridiculous excuse including... that the person that usually handles their insurance is on vacation for two weeks and they have no way of reaching her. This means that nobody, and I mean absolutely nobody who has insurance would be able to get confirmation from their insurance company within this two week time frame. Stupidity like that would grind any dental practice to a complete halt. Obviously they were lying to me. Even my insurance company couldn't get ahold of whomever is supposed to handle insurance for this office. There's a dental portal that the information could have been quickly and easily submitted through for emergency service. Apparently nobody at this office is aware of that. They're unprofessionalism and complete stupidity setback my root canal 2 months. Thank God I found a much more competent office in a neighboring town to do my root canal. Oh, by the way they did take my x-rays exposing me to unneeded radiation and charging my dental insurance company for this. Why the hell would you take a person's x-rays without actually following through for them to get the root canal? These people are complete idiots. Avoid this office at all possible costs. Go anywhere! I mean literally anywhere but this place unless you want to waste your time and needlessly linger in agony.
