Completely disappointed in this practice. We've been going there for nearly 7 years with our 3…read morechildren and the level of care and compassion has completely gone downhill in the past few months. I did notice there were staff changes, and I know that can be difficult sometimes, but the overall care of Dr. Wing has been horrible. My 5 year old went in in January and was told he needed fillings. The Dr. did attempt to do them but my son was less than enthusiastic. In the end, we decided we'd wait a few months to try again, since they were not bad. I called today to have him seen and the dentist blatantly refused to see him citing that the "tooth was too decayed for him to do." Unbeknownst to me, Dr. Wing is not just a dentist, but also a psychic. Considering he hasn't seen my son in months and back when he did, he said the cavities weren't bad and we could wait until his June cleaning to address them again, I'm failing to see how he can see inside his mouth, over a phone, from 2 towns away. I spoke with the new receptionist again, asking if I was hearing her correctly: That my child's pediatric dentist is refusing to see my child and HELP him, while he's in pain. I heard correctly. I highly do NOT recommend this practice and I will be taking my children to a new practice that actually cares.

Just visited Dr Guida today for gum surgery over one front tooth. I was anxious and thought this…read moreprocedure would for sure be painful. I was shocked to say the least. No pain at all was felt or even discomfort while he injected the Novocain or while he did the surgery. I also appreciated the kindness of the front desk staff as well as Shannon the dental hygienist. The communication between Dr Guida and Shannon during the procedure did not go unnoticed. It was so nice to hear the Dr thanking her for things and her acknowledging his kindness. I would highly recommend anyone to not delay having a surgical procedure because of fear or anxiety, Dr. Guida is so gentle, kind and extremely professional. He even personally called me moments ago to follow-up on me.

The only way to describe the hygienist is ham fisted. Two different hygienists. Two painful experiences. Not just my gums either my jaw hurts also. You have to ask for the gum numbing agent they won't voluntarily give it to you. However, the numbing won't help with the way they go about the cleaning. My bottom lip hurts from all the pressure she put on it while cleaning my front teeth.

I had an 11 am appointment with this provider - by 12:15 pm, I still hadn't been seen, with no…read moreexplanation provided as for why there was a delay. Meanwhile, people who arrived after I did were seen before me. They also tried to get me to sign up for "laughing gas" for my surgery - something my state-provided insurance wouldn't cover, so I would have been obligated to pay them out of pocket. This was not what we had agreed upon prior to the appointment. In fact, they didn't seem to notice or care that I was there until I walked out the door and back to my car, at which point the nurse who followed me told me I hadn't been treated differently than anyone else - good to know - if you want to be ignored and waste your time, then by all means, go here...otherwise, go elsewhere!

I am so shocked to read the first review. I literally had…read morethe exact opposite experience here. I needed an implant done on my tooth due to an injury which is a multi step process and I am so afraid to ever go to a dentist, generally I shake like a leaf and even the sound of the drill makes me want to hyperventilate. The Dr and his entire staff was so nice and calming, talking me through the process. He cracked jokes with me while his nurse held my hand and endured what can only be described as digging my nails in her hand until I was calm. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

I am in the process of finding out if there is any legal ramifications for this practice of not recognizing the Ct. State and Federal FMLA laws and our Union contract for disability insurance.

I need a lot of dental work because of my medical history. In a few short months Dr Grillo has done 5 crowns for me. I love that he's quick, painless and really smart. He has an onsite lab so I left with permanent crowns every time - NO temps needed here! But my best experience of all was last night and this morning. I broke a crown in my front top last night (Thursday). Their office is closed Fridaysvabd it's Labor Day weekend. I called the office Thursday after hours, pressed "0" for emergencies and Dr Zack Grillo picked right up. Long story short, we met at his office Friday morning and 2 hours later I had a new, beautiful crown and am ready for the holiday weekend. Can't say enough about Dr Grillo's skill, tact and professionalism. Great practice all round including ing front desk, hygienist and the dentists here. I'd give 6 or 7 stars but 5 is the limit!!
