WARNING- Unless you want complete problem after problem- Take my advice & do not fall for this dentist Dr. Zichinno who pretends he is so caring & concerned, the front desk/office manager Jessica is his gf, they have a way if convincing you how crucial it is for you to have all this work done, only for him to never finish & screw it all up...he throws fits, the cops were there once, the dentist ripped his scrubs off to his bare chest outside to fight my fiance, who just had major back surgery (luckily for the dentist because my fiance was a boxer for over a decade before what he does now).. all because I asked him when he was going to fix & finish my work that I had paid for, btw- 2 if the many crowns I had to have the teeth extracted, my new dentist said perhaps Dr. Zicchino did not have the right equipment to get the little debris that was left in a canal & caused an infection, ins wont pay for them because crowns are meant to last atleast 3-5 yrs. He & Jessica will lie right to your face, I had my left quadrant waiting for implants for 11 months, he decides to tell me the first implant failed. News flash- it is NOT a failed implant when he screws the post in, then 2 mins later he has his asst take an impression & pull the screw right out! Thats plain dumb & common sense...a failed implant is when u go home & it cones loose weeks or months later. I woukd often hear him say to his asst "I had another failed implant this morning, I dont know whats going on!". Well I do...he's a general dentist. He acts so nice but thats what it is- an act. Its all about the $, he tells people they need all this work done when they don't. Do not cross his gf wrong, her & her sister who works there also will try 2 ruin u. I was wondering why Michele asked me for my updated info...then suddenly a fake review came up, she told me she was "in charge of getting rid of any bad reviews".. I asked her where this bad review I had written was & she couldnt answer me. There is so much more I can say, iys all going to the Board if Dentistry- the proof of phone records where they broke appts on me & told Joe Zicchino that I didnt show up, I have the beta-transcribed vm, also all the new bills with letter. Drama & bad teeth after over $10,000. Some told me its called roid rage. STAY AWAY...BAD NEWS. read more

I felt it necessary to write a review about Coastal Dental Group. A couple of weeks ago, I developed a tooth ache to my upper rear tooth. Not knowing the exact problem I called and advised of my ailment. Without hesitation, the staff being compassionate of my pain, scheduled me to come in very next business day. When I came in Dr. Joe examined my troubled area. It turned out to be a root canal that had to be done right away. Prior to performing any work on the tooth, Dr. Joe explained to me exactly what a root canal is and what needs to be done. He explained it to me in laments terms so I could understand and expect. Of course I was sore for the next couple of days, but Dr. Joe actually reached out to me to see how I was feeling and again advised the soreness was normal. To say Coastal Dental Group was professional, knowledgeable and more courteous than any other doctor's office I have been in. It is very difficult to find doctors, let alone dentists that you trust and make you feel at ease when you are not feeling well. I cannot say enough how pleased I am from top to bottom with he service at Coastal Dental Group. read more

Once again I had a fantastic experience with Dr. Joe and a new Hygienist that I had the pleasure of meeting Sam. She put me right at ease the second I met her. Sam escorted me to the chair and I told her about my back and neck and she offered a pillow for my back and neck. Sam listened to my concerns and said not to worry and she was phenomenal. What I also liked about Sam, she kept removing the excess water from my mouth every 10 seconds so I wouldn't feel like my mouth was swimming in water. Made this super comfortable. Sam really did a great job removing the tartar and was explaining everything she was going to do. Checking for cancer, how my gums were. I told Sam, that she was the best Hygienist that I have seen since my good Friend Ana in Marlboro. Then of course the great Dr. Joe came in to check the x-rays and we joked around. He asked how my son Joey was doing who recommended Coastal Dental to me a few years ago. Going to a Dentist can bring anxiety but going to see Dr. Joe and Sam is a total pleasure. I would recommend Coastal Dental to all my family and friends. read more

I hadn't been to the dentist in about 15 years before choosing Dr. Zicchino at Coastal Dental. I had been visiting several dentists in the Ocean County area for "the one". I was not a fan of these dentists after my consultations due to their attitude and lack of humanity they showed towards me. I felt like I was just a piece of meat with bad teeth! My anxiety quickly vanished after my consultation with Dr. Zicchino and his assistant. They are very professional yet down to earth and judgement-free. They treat you like a person and address your worries with true care. The equipment in the office is truly on the cutting edge of teeth technology. Not many people will say they are looking forward to going to the dentist but since my consultation I am confident and stress free to see Dr Z for all my oral work!!! read more

After neglecting some needed dental work for a few years, I responded to a mailing from Coastal Dental. After an examination I had a meeting with Dr. Joe Zicchino and Jessica during which we discussed the work needed, planned the appointments, defined the costs and set a payment plan. All work went as planned, painlessly and right on budget without any changes or surprises. Now after three months and about 8 visits I have the best teeth I have had in many years. I couldn't be more pleased. The staff at Coastal Dental are all skilled, super friendly and Dr. Joe is a real good guy. I recommend Coastal Dental to anybody who needs dental work.

When I tell you that this place saved my teeth I'm not joking. They are amazing and Dr. Joe was so kind and accommodating and the staff all across the board were SO nice. Doc would literally do anything to make sure that his patients are comfortable, and that their teeth are taken care off. This practice went out of the way to make sure I got my teeth taken care of before my insurance ended- and I hadn't been to the dentist in years prior, so there was a lot of work to be done. All I have to say is thank you so much for helping me get everything done in time- and making me so comfortable when I came in literally terrified. I'm so grateful to have found this awesome practice. read more

My daughter and I moved to the Jersey Shore 4 years ago. We tried a few dentists in the area but were not happy with any of them! I am so grateful we found Dr. Joe!! He took care of her cavities and she was very pleased. I needed extensive dental work so I made an appointment with him. OMG! I was so happy I found him and his staff!! They explained what needed to be done, took the time to answer any questions and were very patient with me. I am very impressed with their state of the art equipment, caring energy and reasonable prices. We are both so happy that we found them! God is good! :-) read more

Absolutely outstanding! Dr Joe and his team are so wonderful. As someone who needs a lot of dental work done I've always had trouble finding a dentist I loved. Dr Joe is very open, honest, upfront about cost, gives me all my options, and thoroughly explains the procedures before getting started. When I needed an implant for a front tooth Dr Joe explained everything very clearly and not once during the process did I ever feel unsure about things. Now I have a beautiful smile and you'd never be able to tell that one of my front teeth is an implant. I'll never go to anyone else! read more

I went to Coastal Dental Group for years but 3 years ago I relocated and had to switch dentists. After trying several in my area, I have decided to travel over an hour one way to continue having dental work done by Coastal Dental Group. They are the most friendliest, courteous, and professional group I have found. I will continue to go to Coastal Dental for all my dental needs and highly recommend them to everybody. You will not regret having Coastal Dental work on your teeth. read more

I have been going to Dr. Joe at Coastal Dental Group since 2016, he and his staff have always been so attentive and professional. This weekend I had an emergency (Sat) I called to leave a message to make an appointment for Monday. Within a half hour I heard back from the office and Dr Joe and Jessica met me at the office to fix my emergency and I was able to go about my weekend comfortably. The rest of the staff are all wonderful. Try them, I don't think you will be sorry! read more

My family and I have been visiting coastal dental for years and have had years of clean, quality work. The staff is always open to questions or clarification on treatment options and what they think is best for you. The office and rooms are always spotless/clutter free along with the waiting room. Necessary prescriptions are ready ASAP after a visit so that's never a worry. Can't go wrong here, I trust Coastal dental more and more with every visit! read more

I started with minimal tooth pain on a Friday night, by Saturday morning the pain was absolutely killing me. I called the emergency number for Coastal Dental and immediately Dr. Joe responded back to me. He met me at the office and I ended up needing a tooth extraction. I was always fearful of going to the dentist until I found Dr. Joe. He and his staff are wonderful and very professional. They are truly the best! Thanks again Dr. Joe. read more

I have been to Dr. Zicchino's office several times for cavities and cleanings. The office is extremely clean and updated with new equipment that I had never seen in any of my previous dentists offices. I am an apprehensive patient and my overall experience was a 10. Dr. Zicchino's staff is wonderful and professional. I have never felt more comfortable or satisfied with a dental office. read more

This dentist has major mood swings (roid rage), and easily frustrated with the work he does , dropping screws in my mouth and is only about getting your money. He had the cops at his dental practice and also at his tanning business he owns for guys watching girls getting in And out of tanning beds. I highly recommend going somewhere else . read more
