This was my first dental implant experience and I was referred to Dr. Michael Zidile by my primary dentist. Dr. Zidile runs a truly outstanding practice - professional, skilled, knowledgeable, compassionate, respectful - efficient however I never felt rushed. All of his personable staff were a joy to be with. With his state-of-the-art technology, I was always informed, learned a lot and was reassured seeing his office was consistently Covid conscious. Dr. Zidile is a good listener, willing to explain every detail and prepared a comprehensive long-term plan for me (with pricing) which was open to revisions. He relieved all my apprehension about the procedure and amazingly! there was never pain. I was given printed material for aftercare and the doctor and his team were available by phone and email for questions every step of the way. He and his wonderful staff made an unknown and intimidating experience palatable and (almost) pleasant. I'm grateful to have met them. read more

Dr. Zidile has hands-down the worst bedside manner I ever experienced. He showed me almost zero empathy, made disrespectful assumptions about my lifestyle that were inaccurate, and botched my bone graft surgery which caused me trauma that I would not wish on anyone. Truly would not recommend anyone try to endure his carelessness about anyone's feelings. Who cares if the dental work is good if I left traumatized and then disrespected repeatedly? I have seen other doctors since him and have only now realized how poorly I was being treated. Never ever again. read more

They are so professional and the hygienist is incredible at her job. I would highly recommend if you are looking for a periodontist. read more

Dentistry is frightening - but the team at Dr Zidile makes it less so and actuality aa enjoyable as possible given that they are drilling in your head. Very communicative, kind and also there are headphones with your choice of music so that you can think about something else whilst they are bringing your mouth back to health. I appreciate them. Go there, be kind and be on time and you will be rewarded in return. Xoxoxo thanks Dr. Zidile and team . They do an excellent job and your mouth mind and soul will thank you for it ;) read more

Went to great lengths to make the procedure as painless as possible. Very excellent chairside manner.

I was fortunate not to need dental implants until I was 82. When the time came, I lucked out by choosing Dr. Zidile, who is professional, kind, is supported by a friendly staff, and did I mention he is the best periodontist in Brooklyn? read more

Excellent care. Attention to detail. State of the art equipment. Kind and caring follow up.

I first visited Dr. Michael Zidile almost 3 years ago at the behest of my general dentist. Short story: my front tooth broke off and couldn't be repaired. As you can imagine, I was very anxious. After meeting Dr. Zidile, he described all the options in detail and I elected to replace the tooth with a dental implant. I can tell you that aside from the immaculate office and friendly staff, I was impressed by his bedside manner and his patience with me (can you blame me for being a nervous wreck?). I was surprised that the procedures themselves were painless and short. I felt I was in capable hands throughout my treatment. I have recommended him to another friend who also had a pleasant experience. I recently saw him again for a routine checkup and everything looks perfect. read more

I been coming here couple times So far Michael Zidile and his stuffs really friendly and professional i highly recommend you if you looking for dental implants . read more

Dr. Zidile and staff from receptionist, the appointment person, the X-ray person were very friendly, comforting, went out of way to make sure I was comfortable, very professional yet human and down to earth. It seems that Dr. Zidile has all the excellent credentials On his wall I think NYU dental school but I'm not sure I believe I saw that on his wall. It appears they have the most up-to-date technology and equipment although I am no expert on that I've been to other dentists and I've never seen equipment like this. I also get the impression Dr. Z loves his work and makes sure all the bases are covered with his practice. Everyone there works very hard! read more

Always a great experience @ Dr Zidile's office! Professional and courteous staff, timely appointments, and very honest service. Definitely recommend!! read more

I had a serious situation. A tooth with decay and gum recession. I was referred to Dr. Zidele to get a tissue graft. Not something one looks forward to. I'd say everything about the procedure went very well. Dr. Zidele explained what I was to expect and his very kind and competent staff put me at ease. His office is cheery and spotless. He was extremely attentive during and after the procedure and followed up with appointments several times afterwards to evaluate the work. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Zidele should you be in need of his services. I feel fortunate to have found him! read more

I have had a lot of difficult work done with Dr Zidile. I have found him a good listener, caring and really excellent at what he does with the latest technologies. His staff are wonderful and really take care of me as well! I would highly recommend him! read more

Exceptional. Have always been in good hands with a tricky front tooth procedure. Dr. Z and team are great. Highly recommend.

I love this periodontist. As somebody with inherited gum disease who has visited a number of leading periodontists, I can recommend Dr Zidile as better than any other in my experience. This is in terms of his expertise, and also how he conveys information to patients, so that we can make informed choices about our gum health. Highly recommended. read more

A really outstanding practice. Extremely professional, and thorough. Highly recommended!

Cannot say enough good things about Dr. Zidile and his team! Latest expertise and technology coupled with caring, professional, courteous, and efficient staff...seriously what dentist do you know who checks in with his patient the night of the surgery to ensure all is OK?? Truly the best of the best :+) I highly recommend Dr. Zidile - you will not be disappointed! read more

Professional and caring service through the entire process of dental implants. I highly recommend Dr. Zidile and his staff.

I have nothing but praise for Doc Michael Zidile I came into the office with a severe gum problem and not a big fan of dentists. But all that changed. From when i stepped into the office until i left everything was perfect. He is professional. His work is more than perfect. His after care was great. He called made sure everything was in order. He has a hygienist who was also wonderful and did a very good job. And now when I go to for check ups I am calm and have the utmost trust in his work. Thank you doc zidile. read more

I had a receding gum on a oddly rotated tooth. Dr. Zidile and his staff took very good care of me. They took a skin graph from my upper pallet, and grafted it to my gum. The procedure was virtually painless. Very nice office. Attentive friendly staff. The Doctor is very professional and capable. I always felt well informed. I would recommend him to my friends. read more

Dr. Zidile was phenomenal! I have already begun to recommend him to family and friends. His staff was very pleasant and welcoming! I will definitely be going to him for any future procedures! read more

Took a good history and was very thorough in trying to help with a complicated issue. Professional receptionists and technicians. Nice equipment. Well-priced. On-time, courteous, and generally nice folks. read more

Dr. Zidile prescribed scaling & planing for the condition I came to him with. It seemed a bit extreme, so I sought out a second opinion. The periodontist I visited next was shocked at Dr. Zidile's recommendation. He solved my problem with a quick procedure and it healed wonderfully. Dr. Zidile's office is very "high-tech" (I was shown images of my teeth on a giant projection screen), but fancy equipment doesn't necessarily mean honest dentistry. I can't vouch for his handiwork (if you do in fact have a serious condition, perhaps he is good at the procedures he does) but before you go under the knife, I'd get a second opinion. read more

I never write reviews but I had such a good experience that felt I wanted to write about it. I found Dr. Zidile on the internet and called for a consultation. Dr. Zidile and his staff are professional, courteous and extremely helpful. The office is beautiful and state of the art. Going to the Periodontist is never a "pleasant" experience however Dr. Zidile and his staff do everything they can to make it pain and stress free. read more

I was referred to this office by my dentist. Dr Zidile is great -- he takes his time to explain things in detail and answer all my questions. His office staff is super friendly and welcoming. Highly recommended. read more

Like another reviewer here, who wrote "fancy equipment doesn't necessarily mean honest dentistry," I came away from my consult appt. feeling pretty scammed.When I made the appt., I thought it was a bit strange there was an upfront charge of $150 (I'm a regular in dental offices of many sorts and this is the first time I've seen such a charge). I asked whomever I spoke to -- a very kind woman with a pleasant voice -- whether that would be covered by insurance and if this could be checked in advance and was told they wouldn't submit the claim beforehand (why not?) but that it's usually covered by most insurances, if not in full, then usually most of it. Since I knew my dental plan is a quite good one -- it does indeed cover most things, including crowns in full, fillings and quarterly cleanings -- I decided to proceed (maybe consultation fees are a periodontist thing?). However, as it later turned out, my plan doesn't even cover a third of their consultation fee ($38 out of $150). At the end of the consult, Dr. Zidile tried to talk me into scheduling an appt. and going ahead with the procedure without waiting first for the insurance company's verdict as to how much they'd pay (which he said could take months). His argument was that I'd end up paying for it anyway in the end, as they're not likely to pay for that AND the crown my primary dentist would later need to put on the tooth afterward, since many insurances have caps (I am told mine does not). But my insurance wouldn't even pay in full for the consult, and I am out $112. Yes, dentist offices must be profitable, and you don't become a doctor purely out of goodwill (I'm not under any illusion that you shouldn't be paid for your time and expertise). But when patients are charged a large upfront fee, and then told that fee is likely to be reimbursed, we tend to trust what we are told by those who deal with these things every day. Later, I spoke to my insurance company, who informed me that Dr. Zidile is actually OUT-OF-NETWORK for my insurance plan. My insurance company further informed me that it was the doctor's obligation to tell me about this and -- as I had mentioned that I was a member of that plan over the phone with his office, THAT WAS WHEN I was assured that most insurances fully reimburse this consultation fee. I'm not arguing that these details were intentionally omitted, only that they might have, if they weren't sure whether my plan covered their consult fee or whether they even are in-network, at least checked on this for me. After recovering from the fact that I'd simply lost this money, I booked an appointment with another periodontist I found on Zocdoc, with very high reviews. When I asked, the office told me the consult didn't cost anything, and then they asked me (without my inquiring about it) what my insurance was so that they could make sure I was covered. Totally different way of operating. This dentist was excellent, and, unlike Dr. Zidile, he kept referring to my insurance, saying "Let's make sure you're covered." I then realized how strange and anomalous my experience with Dr. Zidile and his office were. As that other reviewer said, perhaps Dr. Zidile is a highly accomplished dentist, perhaps very able to perform the procedures he does. But why can't they run the insurance first before you make an appointment, and really, what's with the consultation fee? I guess the more we stand for this sort of thing, the more we endorse it becoming the way things are. Anyway, I write all of this in the hopes of saving you your time and money (or making sure you check to see that Dr. Zidile covers you before you seek his services), or in Dr. Zidile's office reading this and taking my case and future patients' interests into consideration. read more

I an really happy with Dr. Zidile's services. He is considerate and tried to make me feel as comfortable as possible. He spent a lot of time with me, going over the treatments and procedures in detail and gave helpful tips. He was clear, direct, courteous the entire time. The practice is excellent. It's quiet, clean, really well run. The Staff are wonderful and helpful. The best part is that Dr. Zidile always takes time to answer any of your questions. I highly recommend Dr. Zidile. read more

Well let me start off by saying Dr.Zidele has hands of gold. I had multiple procedures and not once did i have any pain. He explained every aspect of the procedures and what to expect afterwards. His care did not stop there after every procedure I received a call from his office or from him personally . Based on my experience I believe Dr.Zidele to be the best in his profession. read more

I have great esteem for Dr. Michael Zidile. He has taken care of my gums for quite some time now, and I feel safe that he will always give me the best possible care. He does is work with genuine passion, excellent knowledge and expertise, and he also has a lovely sense of humor, which is a precious quality to me. I feel very fortunate to have came across a doctor with such intelligence and humanity. The office and staff reflect his commitment to offer the best possible care, and I truthfully and with all my heart recommend him. read more

I had to get a molar pulled after my 10-year old root canal cracked. Dr Zidile did a great job getting it out, using all sorts of modern gadgets and medical technology to efficiently get the job done. His staff are warm and reassuring, quietly working behind the scenes to make sure everything runs smoothly. If you can, avoid ever having to have a tooth pulled, but if you must, then Dr. Zidile is definitely a good choice of a doctor to do it. Next up: implant. So, more later. read more
