I saw her on Monday and was able to get in for x-rays and initial images by Wednesday. Within 48 hours of having the initial work up done I ended up having an emergency root canal. Dr. Lucas failed to inform me that she could see that I had a problem with my front tooth -- you could clearly see it via a shadow in the x-rays. She said because I hadn't complained about the tooth she's didn't ask me about it - not bothering to ask about something visible is poor dental practice. Also, dentist also saw me in person like she had promised to ensure everything was good before the Invisalign trays were ordered. Under no circumstances did my dentist or endodontist advise continuing with Invisalign. Dr. Lucas clearly should have caught this issue but instead was quick to take my money. I was asked to pay $400 for x-rays and was told that I would be reimbursed any amount of money that the insurance paid out. After reaching out to the clinic on three occasions without any response, I can conclude that this office has double dipped, charging me and billing my dental insurance plan. There are so many choices of Invisalign providers and dentists. I would strongly recommend doing your research and possibly looking elsewhere before making an investment to get dental work done with this clinic.

I was looking desperately for emergency care in the same day but I believe since it was already near noon all the other dentists were booked or closed for the day! I remembered that my lady had gotten her filling done here and she was very pleased so I called to see if they could do it. After some back and forth I They actually had an appointment for me 10am on 2/25/25!! I hadn't spoke to the doctor yet it was just the receptionist that booked my appointment! I got there at like 9:40 am and did all the paperwork and one of the doctors named John greeted me and escorted me to the operating room/ office . He was super polite and got everything set up and ready for the other doctor.. Doctor Wang!

John & Dr. Wang The Dynamic Duo of the Dental industry!! It was like the perfect system as they did all the dental care then used their state of the art 3d printing computer/machines to scan my mouth and teeth, to construct my new crown that matches and fits perfectly! I was there for about 2.5 hours and got it all done and looks amazing ! I could not believe John and Dr. Wang got it done so easily and rapidly! Thank you guys for your accurate and speedy work! I will definitely be returning to Nova Dental for the flawless work you guys Dr. (Wang and John) have done!

I went in for my annual cleaning, and the entire visit went smoothly. A special shoutout to Ed, who was incredibly personable and took the time to educate me throughout the appointment. His professionalism and friendly demeanor made the experience even better.

Every visit feels like a sales pitch where they try to upsell you on additional services and procedures. Going here honestly feels more like being pressured at an auto repair shop than being at a dentist's office. I continued going mainly because it was convenient and close by, despite consistently leaving frustrated after appointments. The final straw was when I had to cancel an appointment because of a family emergency, and months later they informed me I owed a $50 cancellation fee before they would see me. I paid it because I was already there for my cleaning, but I knew at that moment I would never return. What really pushed this over the edge was that just a few weeks later, my partner had an appointment there and the office called the same day to cancel because one of the dentists had a medical emergency. Apparently emergencies are understandable when it affects them, but not when it affects patients. To make matters worse, they recently sent an email announcing they now require deposits to book appointments because of patient cancellations. I have never encountered another dental office in Jersey City doing this. There are plenty of other dentists in the area that treat patients with more respect and have policies that don't feel so hypocritical. The only reason this isn't a one-star review is because they once gave me a free electronic toothbrush during a promotion. Thanks for that, at least.

TrueCare Dental also tried using high-pressure sales tactics on me, including the scam artist dentist challenging me by saying demeaning stuff like, "Well, if you can't afford it..." Fortunately I am not easily pressured. Went to two different dentists after to get second and third opinions, both of whom said I don't need any part of my mouth deep-cleaned (let alone a full mouth deep cleaning) and I do not need invisalign. I also only need one filling, not the six or seven TrueCare Dental insisted I needed. TrueCare Dental is a scam shop. Avoid at all costs.

I called earlier in the day for emergency visit due to excruciating pain, the man I spoke to who I…read morethink was the doctor told me I would be going to the right place bec they specialize in gum issues/periodontist. I know it was the dr , bec when i arrived the only one there was a nice lady who took care of the front/assistant and the male doctor.The dentist was very informative but pushed on dentures /implants. I went in as emergency patient for pain in my gums . I know i need a lot of dental work thats needed to be done.But the pain wasnt really taken care of until the end of the visit when i asked him what about the pain, what can he or i do for relief? He hesitated at first to give me prescription then gave me a script for antibiotics bec I asked for a solution to solve my emergency visit . The whole time I was there the visit consisted of just talking about treatment plans and the outrageous prices. And he cannot really do anything right there and then not even a dental cleaning.,and if i need a cleaning to relieve the pain I have to make an appointment bec his hygienist wil be the one to do it and if i do the implants, it's also another person who will do some parts of it. The deep cleaning will cost me thousands and implants to about $50k.The whole time nothing was done but do a scan of my teeth, which i agreed to do thinking he can do something to releive the pain after seeing the scan right that time which cost me almost $400 added to the $145 for the emergency visit fee where it was more like just a consultation. Almost $600 out of my pocket with no solution to my pain. I also wasnt to crazy about the lay out of the dental exam area..they are only divided by "glass" partitions and no doors..you can see & hear the doctor/patient is doing & discussing ... breaking patient confidentiality/hippa . And vice versa the others can also hear and see whats going on with my visit. The patients that left before and after me ,i can tell were disappointed too leaving bec all i heard from their discussions were the high prices for procedures and they just left right after within minutes the dr talked to them . Im going to go to other dentists for second opinion. The only thing good i got out of the emergency visit was a scan of my teeth , and know what my future options may be even though I felt he kept trying to push for implants. I work for doctors and when theres an emergency the doctors try to solve the issues first either by doing a procedure or give meds to help the patient instantly...then talk about future treatment plans without it being the main focus. Why tell me im going to the right place bec they deal with gum pain when the dr couldn't do anything and if i didn't ask for meds, i would have left the office with nothing to help relieve it. The only thing I liked about the visit was the nice assistant, she made me feel less anxious being in the dentist office and the dentist was upfront what the treatments options are. Im just disappointed that he couldn't do anything to relieve the pain without me asking for meds at the end and mainly just talk about expensive treatments! Why accept emergency patients and not do anything to help relieve the pain. I should have just went to hospital ER where they would have probably given me meds to help with pain right away.

I'm sharing this painful experience not just to protect my rights, but to advocate for transparency…read moreand accountability in the dental community--for the sake of future patients. On June 3, 2025, I underwent LANAP surgery at this clinic for teeth #11 and #31, referred by Dr. Andrew Andrawis. Unfortunately, the experience left me with more harm than healing. No proper imaging was conducted prior to surgery--only two low-resolution X-rays of tooth #31 were taken on the same day. Tooth #11, which was also treated, had no imaging at all. What I did not know at the time was that the surgeon, Dr. Marina Mishriky, is Dr. Andrawis's spouse--a relationship that was never disclosed. I was not given alternative treatment options, nor was I informed about existing bone loss or the potential need for bone grafting. I paid $2,382.32 out of pocket for a surgery I was told was "less invasive" and "just as effective." Over the following weeks, my symptoms worsened--severe swelling, pain, and infection. Despite repeated phone calls between June 9 and June 23, I received no meaningful follow-up. My concerns were dismissed by staff. When I finally reached someone, I was told no doctors were available until days later. I ended up in the emergency room at 1:00 AM and received IV pain treatment. Later that morning, I was treated by another provider, Dr. Nancy Kim, who had to perform an emergency flap surgery. She documented serumal black calculus, active infection, and 5mm of bone loss--evidence that the original LANAP procedure had failed to clean the area and possibly worsened the condition. To make things worse, when I requested my records, I found inaccurate and misleading clinical notes, including false claims that I declined follow-up care. My request for corrections was denied. When I asked for transparency, I was met with condescension and dismissive responses like "we're not worried about formal complaints." This is not just about poor service. It is about violations of basic medical ethics--undisclosed relationships, lack of informed consent, neglect of follow-up care, and resistance to record correction. Patients deserve better. Dental practices like this one should be subject to greater oversight. I am still recovering physically and emotionally from this experience. I hope no other patient has to go through what I did.
