Its the same as a dog going to the vet, if you're a dog owner you know exactly what i mean. Anyways, like any Fear/Anxiety over time under the right condition and atmosphere it dissipates. Galligan and Villa set the standard high with impeccable care for their patients and their dental needs. Once you make the cross over thru the door from the waiting room its a extremely positive atmosphere with a super friendly outgoing staff that make you their priority. Once in the room rest assured you will be getting the best, most experienced treatment that Hollywood couldn't even replicate or buy for that manner.My point is Galligan and Villa are better than any Hollywood story. 2 Galligans,Father and Son, providing the best Dental care not just acquired through a Degree but also passed down through the bonds of family. The fighting Irish Galligan's, and their longtime partner and close family friend Villa,created a extremely knowledgeable,professional,positive environment that will have you thinking if your at home or at the dentist office. The staff mirror this thus letting you go home with the best dental experience possible. Your not just treated like a patient at this dental office, your treated as family also. No more fear or anxiety for me anymore!

This review is long overdue - I became Dr. Gerskowitz's patient almost a year and a half ago. But…read morenow I am able to reflect on entire year-long-dental project. The task was enormous - at least to me it certainly had sounded overwhelming. But Dr. G's incredible patience and thoughtfulness, and the respectful manner in which he explains everything - treating you as a partner rather than simply a patient - made me choose him over two other doctors I had been considering. And I am so happy I did! Today, after many months or our collaboration I am in a very different place: medically, aesthetically, and emotionally. What's also very important to me is that Dr. Gerskowitz looks at the patient and his/her health in a integral way, which so rare at our time of infinite specialization. He is a real master. His approach is careful and intelligent, and what they call "bedside manner" is superb: once you are in his office, you immediately feel at ease. Dr. Gerskowitz is simply the best dentist I've seen in my life and one of the very best doctors of any specialization I've encountered. I just wish I found him earlier. The staff is equally great - I use this office now for my general dental maintenance and checkups. Everyone is knowledgeable and friendly. I normally go to the River Edge office, but have been to the Wayne location, too. Dr. G.'s practice is the place I recommend to my friends and family - that says it all. Thank you, Alexander, Andrey, Theresa, and everyone at AvantGarde!

The young lady dentist assigned to me was very inexperienced. She extracted the molar by chipping and hacking away where she eventually removed the molar in pieces. I ended swallowing bits of the molar. In that visit, since I had insurance , this place did anything and everything to max out as much as they could from my insurance. I was told that 25% of the bill had to be paid upfront, which was $588. That night I bled quite a bit and had tremendous discomfort. The next day my face was swollen and I had a slight fever and realized something wasn't right. I When to another Dentist to get to the bottom of why I was bleeding so much and had this puffiness and why I had all this discomfort. Was told that the reason I bled so much was because the stitching done at this Avant garde place was because it was done on one side of the gum and that the stitching should've have been done in a cross road method as opposed to one side of the gum and the grafting to cover the hole in the gum area was not there. Was also told that I also had an infection as well and was given a prescription. I ended Spending an additional $750 to correct this mess done at Avant garde. To add insult to injury, no pun intended, Avant garde wanted another$1,590. I left skid marks at Avant garde. As mentioned, it was a horrible experience. Stay away...

Someone was having a bad day and decided to take it out on me. I was not so nice with someone and may be there was a balance but I didn't now! Went to a new dentist in Elizabeth and thank g-d, I'm very satisfied, I'm not paying cash anymore and will keep my receipt. I don't have insurance, today I just paid $6500.00 for a bridge.

Before coming here, I was under the impression that all dental visits involved pain. I just had never been to a good dentist. Both doctors have pleasant dispositions and are extremely knowledgeable of their craft. They make their patients as comfortable as possible. I know this because I have referred my family to them. They all have nothing but raves about their experiences. After a cleaning with Liz, I had 2 separate people compliment me on the look of my teeth (I know that sounds a bit strange) but she is that good at making the most of your smile.

I had a very frustrating experience with Oakwood Dental on Richmond Ave in Staten Island and want…read moreto share it so other patients are aware. I started treatment with Oakwood Dental on September 11 and was referred by them for a root canal, which I had completed on December 2. After the root canal, I was told to return to Oakwood to have a crown placed about a month later. My crown appointment was scheduled for January 3, but the office canceled it and told me they were still waiting for insurance authorization. I was rescheduled again for February 5 and that appointment was also canceled for the same reason. After waiting months believing my authorization was still pending, I later spoke directly with my insurance company and was told my crown had actually been approved on February 13. When my appointment was rescheduled again for March, Oakwood informed me they no longer accept my insurance and that I would have to pay full cash price to complete the crown. This left me in a very difficult position after months of delays and multiple canceled appointments. I am now forced to find a new dentist and restart the authorization process for a crown after already completing the root canal. I hope the office improves communication and insurance coordination so other patients do not experience the same situation.
