THANKFULLY, my experience was quite the polar opposite of all the negative reviews. I didn't wait longer than 10 minutes, the office was clean, I had both my x-rays and cleaning done in ONE appointment, and I was told that I only needed ONE filling. Maybe I caught them on a good day, but everything was smooth during my visit. No evil money-hungry, inconsiderate dentist. He was the exact opposite, simply great!

Before I know it, he's talking about putting caps on my top four front teeth, three of which are pristine. Did he need new tires for his car or something? My wife, who was pregnant at the time, wanted to get her teeth cleaned without getting an X-ray. They wouldn't do it. Um, really? You really want to risk exposing a fetus to X-radiation? Or you're so incompetent that you can't clean teeth without looking at some film first? Go anywhere else--just avoid this joker.

I do and later have my insurance company call them to confirm all my details because they weren't able to accomplish that task. When I come in I asked if they got all the insurance information and if my insurance will be covering the procedure or anything that happens today . They confirm . This is important because I don't think that they process my insurance and am suspicious about fraud. The dentist decided to take an x-ray and check it out. The doctor said that he would have a TMJ expert for me to see and send me up for tomorrow. They're expert gave me a look over and told me that the only thing that would work besides a mouthguard would be Botox injections. I say that seems excessive and wondered what else would work. She says that there's nothing else that works. I asked about price and she says that a specialist will come talk to me about the price. I sat in the waiting room with an expectation to be taken care of and they forgot about me until I reminded them that I was waiting. 30 min. They made an excuse to why I was waiting. I was not entertained by their conversations about pants, their lunch options, their new diet, and where they get their nails done. The specialist was there too, enjoying the convo. 10 minutes after reminding them I've been waiting. Somebody scribbles on a piece of paper that guards cost about $400 and botox cost $1,800 and my total. I asked them what my insurance said, and they say they did not call the insurance and that takes 4 to 6 weeks for an insurance to come back. I asked them to follow through and check. Later, I get the bill... $5,600.00 (My TMJ is gone, after reading home remedies on wiki) 2,500 for each visit. (Dentist and The 20 min consultation with the specialist. ) 850.00 for guards which I did not order or receive.

Then, after…read moresitting in a waiting room for over an hour, if you want to be told to come back later that day so that the procedure can actually be done, then by all means sign in at the sheet here! Who doesn't love spending all their free time in dentists' waiting rooms?? The best part is that the receptionist will even argue that your appointment was actually an hour after you scheduled it for, just to save face. The only consolation is that two other girls in the waiting room were told the same thing. So either we collectively all forgot what time our appointments were...or the good doctor needs to update his appointment software (or retrain his staff, more likely). A bit of advice to the doc..if you're running behind schedule and are going to have a roomful of patients waiting, at least apologize for the wait when you finally do see someone. My time is just as valuable as yours.

I wish I could give 4 1/2 stars. First and foremost, this is a great office. The front desk…read morepeople always have a smile for everyone, and my average wait time is never more than 10 minutes, even when I'm early. I should begin this review by saying that I've had extensive work done here, and unfortunately a great deal of different procedures at other dentists and periodontists in NYC and Florida. Dr. Moskowitz is a dream dentist. He's as upbeat as he can be, yet he never sugarcoats the situation. He will answer endless questions, and never seems frustrated or irritated. I don't like dentists, and I am kind of a wuss when it comes to pain, but he is unfailingly gentle, and will stop and administer more anesthetic in the middle of a procedure if the patient wants it. I cannot say enough about my experience with him, and with his assistant, who also went to dental school, Dora. They are an amazing team, and I trust them completely. Why? I read some previous reviews about unnecessary work ordered, but I had all different options and price points discussed with me, and wasn't pushed toward the most expensive option. My father made the same decision to have a permanent bridge put in, and his dentist (in Florida) was not as good as Advanced Dental Care - he gets food caught under it and it irritates his gums. My bridge fits so well that I feel like it's nearly my natural teeth. They didn't rush to cement it in, but used temporary paste, until I was sure that the fit was absolutely correct. So why not 5 stars? They are EXPENSIVE. I have dental insurance, and with the insurance that they take, I'm still paying tens of thousands of dollars out of my own pocket. I know that there are less expensive dentists out there, but I've decided that the thoroughness and expertise that I have experienced here are worth the money. After all, it is your mouth, and I don't know about you, but I like eating. They make sure that they accommodate my schedule, and after hearing my dad complain about the dental work that he had done, I think it is ABSOLUTELY worth the cost.

tl;dr: this place takes advantage of economically vulnerable people and the administration is an…read moreabsolute mess. Extremely long wait after appointment time to be seen, and the administration is horribly managed. This place is terrible. I went to get my wisdom teeth removed. The consultation was standard and everything went fine. They verified that I was qualified for a loan and repayment plan but then I received a letter in the mail after my surgery saying that I did not qualify for the extended repayment plan despite being assured before my surgery that I was. They had me sign up for a plan that caused me financial stress under false pretenses. They called to reschedule my surgery twice which caused confusion with my job because I had to request time off for the surgery and then change it, twice. When I arrived for my surgery, I had to wait an hour and half to be seen by the surgeon whose assistant did not follow her instructions to x ray me while I waited, causing more of a delay. The guy before me had been waiting for two hours. The surgery itself went fine. They have very capable doctors. But so do A LOT of other dental offices. I received IV sedation and it was very fast. The big issue with this place is the management and administration. It is VERY poorly managed. They sent my scripts to the wrong pharmacy (TWICE!) and it took a few hours after my surgery to get them. Also, I requested an itemized receipt for my surgery both before and after my procedure. Was initially told hey can't give that to me until after the procedure. Then on 10/12 when I followed up I was told it would take a day to get to me. It's 10/17 and I still don't have my itemized receipt and they have not called me back. This is what I wonder: 1. I asked for an itemized receipt before my surgery and they said that they could not provide this until after the surgery because that's when they would be able to calculate the totals. 2. If that's the case why did they give me a solid price (the wording was, verbatim "the surgery will cost $2400". It was a definitive statement and not a quote) and have me sign up for a loan and repayment plan based on this amount if they can't actually calculate the totals until after the procedure? 3. Why are they unable to supply an itemized receipt when requested? Why don't they already have this information calculated and on file? Why won't they return my calls about this? Why are they being so shady about this? I am concerned that this place takes advantage of those who need dental work and who may be economically vulnerable, in a lot of pain, and who may be desperate to get this work done. I sincerely regret using Brooklyn Dental and besides my follow up, will never see them again.

There were some hiccups but in all, the hospitable service made up for it - the system was down but they found other ways to retrieve my pre-filled forms, and I waited a good 10 min to see Dr. Czarnik after my cleaning was done. Finally got out around 9:45am. The office is modern and chic and the waiting room comes with a wine cart inviting you to treat yourself (what?!) Note: the dentist you book with on ZocDoc may not be the one you'll see on your appointment, so it'd be best to confirm if you're going for a specific dentist.

I know how hard it is to find a good dentist so when I moved to NYC I asked around and decided to…read morego to the dentist most of my office was seeing, "Aesthetic Dentistry" in the West Village. This experience turned into a nightmare. I have never been afraid of dentists as I have generally had good experiences. I take very good care of my teeth, but for some reason, I suddenly needed two filler replacements and two onlays. This is the most amount of work I have ever needed. While I thought this was crazy, I went ahead with the replacements, because I was moving in 6 weeks to yet another city and my office trusted this dentist. The dentist did some of the work and then let his assistants work on my teeth. When I left I experienced quite a bit of pain. They told me to come back in for some adjustments. I was told I would be seeing a dentist. When I got there, the dentist said hello and then the assistant worked on my teeth. Again, I left and had pain. I was at the dental office every other day for a month trying to get "the adjustments" fixed so I wouldn't have pain. I have never had to get "adjustments". In my experience, dentists have gotten their work right the first time. My last experience was my final onlay. Again after the onlay was put in I had to get adjustments done cause I couldn't chew without pain. The assistant working on my tooth didn't numb me. She drilled away hitting a nerve. I screamed in pain and tears rolling down my cheeks. I kept telling her it hurt. She said, "I know. I am sorry. I am almost done." It took nearly 3 months for the nerve pain to go away from that tooth. Another tooth continues to bother me. The dentist told me he drilled close to the nerve. He then told me, in 3 months if I still have pain I will need a root canal. Well it has been 5 months. I still can't chew on the right side of my mouth. Why the "F" do I need a root canal after seeing this dentist. I didn't need one before! I didn't even have problems with my teeth before going to this dental office. This dental office also had the audacity to bill me once more after I moved. After they told me I had everything settled. Two months after I moved, they told me my insurance wouldn't cover EVERYTHING. Awesome.. since when I was there they told me my insurance company would pay up to this and this amount. I paid the hefty remaining balance. In any case, I am now in another city... still in pain with no dental insurance and deathly afraid to see another dentist (I didn't have a fear of dentists before). I never want to experience this kind of pain again, both physically and financially.

I cannot stress this enough: do not go to this dental office…read more What happened to me goes beyond a simple mistake--it shows a level of carelessness and incompetence that is honestly alarming when you're dealing with something as serious (and expensive) as dental work. A dentist at this office used 10-month-old X-rays to make a referral for a root canal... on a tooth that had already had a root canal just four months ago. That means one of two things happened: she either reviewed the wrong X-rays or failed to ask even the most basic questions about my recent dental history. Either way, that's unacceptable. Because of this, I was led to believe something was wrong with the wrong tooth. Trusting the "expert," I moved forward--only to end up getting a root canal on a completely different tooth that likely just needed a filling. Let that sink in. When I called the office to address this, the front desk staff--who are consistently unfriendly--treated me like I was inconveniencing them just by asking questions about my own care. It gets worse. The dentist called me back and initially doubled down, telling me I was wrong and insisting I had never had a root canal on that tooth. I literally had to explain, "I can feel the crown--I had this done over the summer." Only then did she finally recheck and realize she had been looking at outdated X-rays. Then came the apology. At that point, the damage was already done. Mistakes can happen--but this wasn't a small oversight. This was a chain of errors, poor communication, and dismissiveness that resulted in unnecessary dental work and significant cost. I personally know four other people who used to go here and have since left--and not because of my experience, but because of their own negative ones. This place has a pattern. You are trusting people with your health, your body, and your money. You deserve better than rushed decisions, outdated information, and a staff that treats you like a burden. Please, go somewhere else.
