He and his staff were very welcoming, kind and knowledgeable and he was able to put the prosthetic abutment on an implant that was initially started by another Oral Surgeon who was unable to remove the healing cap after an hour of working on me. I would highly recommend Dr. Barasz for any periodontic or implant work.

The warm welcome by the office staff made me feel right at home. Once in the office Dr. Barasz took the time to explain all the details of the procedure and what the process would be. After a lot of decision making I pulled the trigger and got the procedure. It was pretty invasive but Dr. Barasz made sure I was comfortable the whole time and would pause if I wasn't. The staff continued to reach out after the procedure to check in and my mouth has made some dramatic changes since. I would recommend this office to anyone who is considering Wilckodontics or tooth extractions.

I had a infected tooth that I needed extracted and when I called my dentist I was told she was away for 2 weeks . It takes a lot to impress me .

Was very impressive , great personality explained everything in great detail and what was needed in the near future . He explained options that didn't include a lot of unnecessary procedures to send his kids to Yale . Thank you

I didn't make it through the door because of our great democratic, CT Husky Insurance Program…read more Participating dentists, surgeons or other dentistry needs are not being met in our state due to low payments fir I ricedures and those are paid months late. So I get that part of this mess BUT where's the humanity??? If you have a tooth ache on an upper molar tooth which only an oral surgeon can safely pull, you're made to wait months??? There's only a handful of these in the state and the ones I called wouldn't squeeze me in because I have only 1 tooth to be extracted? So Im basically not worth the time slot because its not enough money ? I'm on pain. So what so O do pull it myself? Or wait ,in pain until June. I called CT Ortho and Maxiofacial Surgery in Meriden AND Premier n Stratford which is a good 45 minutes away from me. My daughter went through 2 weeks or more waiting for someone to help her, in pain. Unable to sleep, eat, ir work. I'm disgusted. Shame on these offices. This is what you get when you need to rely on the social service programs and services covered under the social welfare departments. We get poor quality treatment and judgemental professionals that make you feel worthless and limited options. Adding another one to the list, UCONN SCHOOL OF DENISTRY. I can't even believe this. July is the first opening. First of all I dont believe this. I asked this supervisor if she woke up with tooth pain and needed an extraction, would she be asked to wait til July? They say this information with this high pitched friendly voice , while I'm crying on the other end of the phone. Wbat in the world is going on..This is am oral surgeons office who deals mostly with patients in pain. You're also not usually a patient in a specialized area as this one unless you've had alot of oral surgery, which who needs this service often. Trust me, being on state insurance is the ladt place I want to be, but Its my only option right now. I just want voters to think twice , and for those of you who think this is what the would needs more of , how wrong you are!!

He was still heavily medicated and tripped and stumbled his way out. I had to find a wheel chair on my own from the Yale office to get my sedated child safely to the car. Against my better judgement we took our youngest there too. I fully recognize that even using best practices there can be unwanted outcomes. When I expressed my concerns first to the nurse than the doctor that my child was reporting pain and was pounding on the arm rest to get them to stop or to acknowledge them and he was shushed and told to stop moving. Certainly there are limits to medication dosages and sometimes pain can happen. That is not the problem. Its the hubris and arrogance coupled with the gaslighting from staff. The reluctance to admit a complications. That is the problem. The doctor was better about it and had a reasonable explanation for every concern though was not apologetic/sympathetic that there were compications. The nurse was the real offender. Starting by saying my child was just being emotional. Minimizing this child's concerns and acting almost put out by my asking questions respectfully. Coastal has a nursing problem.

I went to this practice for an implant. I saw Dr. Berkely and the process took close to a year…read morebefore I had my last appointment, which was to remove the healing cap to prepare to have my crown made. I had my appointment and Dr. Berkely work on me for an hour to try and remove the healing cap, which in the end he was unsuccessful at doing. During that process it started to get uncomfortable and after awhile I asked him if everything was okay and he said it was not, because he couldn't get the cap off. He continued to try and I started to get nervous, but I trusted the process, but in the end it could not be removed. When he stopped he didn't have much to say to me other than he had to check with the device rep and get back to me. Needless to say, as a result I had a lot of swelling, a large wound from an instrument, canker sores and I called the office 3 times over the next 2-3 weeks to see what next steps were and to tell them of my wound, sores and uncomfortableness. No one had answers for me and I never heard from Dr. Berkely. At 3 weeks, I got a call to have an appointment for him to try again, but I was frustrated at the lack of follow-up and had already sent at letter to the office and I declined the visit. This review is not reflective of his staff who were very kind and professional.

It's…read moreeither they will lie about issues or they will over- exaggerate an issue you are having and try to do treatments on you that you really don't need. Go get a second opinion with another dentist office before buying into what Aspen Dental says. The dental office itself does not feel very safe or comfortable. You can hear everything going on with other patients around you. Anyone can just peek in and see what's going on. This is a HIPPA law violation as patients are entitled to privacy rights. No patient should ever have to feel humiliated and embarrassed because people can overhear what's "going on with their mouths" (Because majority of the time they lie). Just not a comfortable place to be in. Dentist who did root canal on me was very nice so 2 stars for her because she was so sweet and so gentle and so understanding but other than that, please do not blindly trust what they tell you. Second opinions are important with this facility!

My experience at Aspen dental was not good at all. I went there for a fractured tooth that was…read morecausing me severe pain that woke me up at night and made it difficult to eat. I worked with my insurance company to get me in as soon as possible and Aspen obliged. When I arrived at my appointment they went right to work taking soooo many X-rays and a panorax X-ray. I told them numerous times that I was there because I had a broken tooth that was causing severe pain. They assured me that they would address that when I saw the dentist. Eventually I met with the dentist. She was very nice. She examined my mouth for about 2 minutes. Then she told me that she had reviewed my X-rays and there were a lot of teeth that needed fixing. She explained that I needed teeth removed and partial dentures and dental implants. I was devastated. I asked her again about the tooth that was causing me pain. She said that I would have to talk to the treatment plan coordinator to set that up. When I met with the treatment plan coordinator she gave me a breakdown of what needed to be done and how much it would cost. The total cost would be $38,512 ($11285.65 with insurance). I asked her about the tooth that I need to have fixed and she said that I need to contact my insurance company because they couldn't do anything about it . She said I needed to contact an Endodontist for that. So after all that, I left still in pain. I have contacted the BBB and plan on speaking with my union representative. Very disappointed.

When she was finished, Dr. Desai came into the room, introduced himself, with a big smile, and examined my teeth. I certainly felt welcomed. The experience was the best I've had at a dentist.
