My dentist, and a good one at that! Highly recommended…read more Dr. Mike Lorman works with Dr. Derario in what appears to be a healthy practice that draws its clients to some extent from Bear Stearns (I do not work there). I find the hygiene people to be friendly and the doctor to be knowledgeable, and also looking out for your best interests. Now the story of the missing star. I took a star off since I hear these stories about dentists who make the experience a lot of fun by providing special equipment to watch video and such like. Granted, my dentist's office is very clean and organized, but it has none of that fun stuff :(

This dental office is located on the 43rd floor, so one has to use the elevators that up to the…read more44th floor. Every time I visit, I have to take a photograph at the front desk and sign in which is a safety precaution. I believe Dr. DeRario is a great dentist. Unfortunately, being that he has two locations, he sees people on specific days. My general feelings for this place is satisfaction, even though sometimes I have fear of dentists overall. I guess most of the time, I leave with a smile because there is always quick turn around. I have never had an appointment that lasted more than 45 minutes. The administrative assistants are helpful, too. They tell me about the co-pays and also work with me to make an appointment that fits best with my schedule. These ladies also send me a reminder a few days ahead to let me know that I have an appointment which I really appreciate. Most times, I do not get appointments with Dr. DeRario. Instead, I have some of dental visits with his associate whose name is Felicia who not only is thorough in cleaning my teeth but kind in assisting me with flossing and answering my questions. Oooh, and good news, there is also a bathroom available.

Not a good dentist…read more Whenever you get your teeth cleaned Dr. DiBenedetto checks your teeth after the hygienist is done. He almost always finds some "decay". He then says, "You could probably let it go until next time, but I can fix it now if you want." Psychologically you're like "I guess if I have decay I might as well get it fixed". And not being a dentist I trusted his opinion. Last time this happened I went to a different dentist to check it out. The dentist told me that while a tiny amount of decay is present it was unlikely to become a problem for a long time, if ever. The most generous way to look at his behavior is to say that he's overly cautious. The other way (which in my heart is what I believe) is that he's doing it to increase his profits. Either way, it's inappropriate. I won't be returning.

We moved to Little Silver about a year ago and needed a new dentist. Our primary doctor…read morerecommended this practice. My husband, son and me have all been treated at this practice and we are very impressed. The staff is very nice and professional and the doctors (father, Carlos, and son, Brian) are very good at what they do. My son broke a tooth as a small child. The crown never fit right and was causing the gum to erode. When he smiled you knew the tooth was a crown and I hated the way it looked. Dr. Brian repaired the gum and replaced the crown. What a difference. I personally need a good deal of dental work. Dr. Brian has been treating me and so far so good. Dr. Brian also called me after an extensive treatment to see how I was doing. I can't tell you how much I appreciated that. I also had a dental emergency and was treated by Dr. Carlos. Dr. Carlos could have done the procedure in-house but thought it would be better handled by a specialist. It was a painless and quick process and I appreciate that Dr. Carlos made the referral. I highly recommend this practice.

Never have I received such terrible service from a medical facility. At my first visit, I'm told I…read morehave all these issues with my teeth and jaw. I get completely overwhelmed and worried about my oral health, to which I'm told none of this can be fixed without extensive jaw surgery which Dr. Ally doesn't even recommend I do. What was the point of bombarding me with all of this terrible information?? Every time I've tried to ask questions about my jaw and treatment, she interrupts me and talks down to me. After that visit, they said I would continue to experience a lot of pain even after purchasing my day and night guards they made for me for $3000. They prescribed no treatment or medication for said pain I still have almost a year later from that initial May visit. I've since moved and had to give a new doctor my records. I even set up an appointment with another TMJ specialist. I requested 2 sets of dental records to Mary, who said that was fine and that she'd put that order in for me. After a week of no update from the office, I request again and again. They said no one in the office was available to make the imaging, then the machine was broken, and then they started ignoring my calls. Then, when I finally go in to pick up my 2 copies, Jeanine said I never requested 2 copies, only one. Despite Mary and Dr. Ally also being in the office, they did not relay that I had requested 2 copies MULTIPLE times. They say how "we never give patients 2 copies". After some back and forth, they start whispering, and then I'm being charged this fee of $35 for a second set of records. Why am I being charged for my own records? They lie and say I never asked for them, make me call in a bunch of times, hang up when I call them. The fact that you can't even leave a voicemail is incredibly telling. Not only is Mary incompetent at relaying information, but Jeanine is a liar and incredibly rude. It is clear that after I pay all my money, I'm no longer treated like a valued patient or even a valued customer, even though I still have all the issues I started with, except more financial burden from this dental office. P.S. This place has a completely separate name, website, and phone number, despite it being the same business: "Advanced Sleep & TMJ Center of New Jersey".

The name is totally slipping me right now, but when I came in for my last bi-yearly check up my hygienist was such a sweetheart! It's obvious that she has a passion for taking care of teeth because she's been in the business for almost 40 years and has worked at this particular practice for around 10 years. Not only did she do a great job helping clean my teeth, but she also gave me some really great tips on tooth care practices to put into place every day. I've never really felt that compelled to make the switch from a regular to an electric tooth brush, but now I think I'm convinced. Overall, this is an office that has really got their stuff together. They have a really organized appointment reminder system and send frequent text/email/call reminders during the days leading up to your appointment. They also never let you leave empty handed and always give out a really cute goodie bag with a bunch of tooth care stuff in it. My old dentist used to just hand out a toothbrush, so it's nice to get a whole assortment of things. As long as they keep taking my insurance, I'll keep on going to this office for my check-ups. No reason not to!

Dr. Silver examined my mouth, looked at the x-rays, and said I needed two root canals and no extractions. Not great, but I questioned why the other clinic hadn't detected anything six months ago when I got x-rayed. He said I was right to question what the other dentist had said; keeping my teeth is a priority of mine. In the words of Frank Zappa, "Always get a second opinion."
