Dr. Liss and everyone at Upper East Smiles provide such a warm, reassuring environment. I was so…read morenervous about my gum graft surgery (which required tissue from both sides of my palate to thicken tissue under 5 teeth). I compared so many options in NYC, and even other states and outside the US. Two weeks after my gum graft, I feel confident that I made the best choice. I knew beforehand that the surgery wouldn't be covered by insurance, and truth be told, it wasn't cheap--but it was worth every penny for this level of care. The entire time, I knew I was in good hands. There was the option to watch Netflix or other platforms before and during the procedure, though in the end I switched to just music. (You can even choose the music if you want.) I'm so grateful to Dr. Liss, who really rooted me on and made me feel seen and cared for, and even called me that evening to see how I was feeling. I'm told this is probably the only graft I'll need, and it sounds like this investment will enable me to keep my lower front teeth another 40 years. If I need any other procedures in the future, it'll be a relief to know I can go back to Upper East Smiles. (I rarely write reviews, but the reviews made a big difference in helping me figure out where to go--I hope this review helps someone in a similar situation.)

Whole family comes here. Great service and nice people. If you need a good area dentist, I…read morerecommend.

I was in need of general dental check up/cleaning and heard about this place from my research…read more I had a pretty positive experience overall! As a pretty simple patient but new to the practice, I was in and out within an hour of my appt time. The facility was clean and much larger than expected, with good amount of seating in the waiting area. Paper work was straightforward. Felt like the dental assistant and dental hygienist were both pretty nice and very speedy with their parts. The DMD reviewed my images, did a quick exam, and then headed out. While I wish someone had prepped me what the visit was gonna look like, I have no dental complaints or major issues so it didnt bother me. I just wish they gave me an eye shield so the cleaning solution and fluids wouldn't get to my eyes. Also wish they wore badges/name tags so I could orient myself to the care team and which step/portion I was doing within the entire visit. The front desk staff were warm and polite. Kiana especially was really helpful in answering my insurance questions and with scheduling.

I prepaid $5,000 for two infected teeth to be pulled out, gum tissue, x-rays. That's 5000 out of my pocket. I've gone back 4 times asking Vanessa to refund my $2309. (which was the amount I had coming back to me) Vanessa, the bookkeeper, keeps giving me the runaround . She claims to be contacting the main office ( I have no idea where that is , I asked her for the address, she refused) . Look for another dentist Iv'e been waiting for more than 2 months without two teeth, I have called the office as well -NOTHING! Do not go unless you want to be ripped off

I typically don't write reviews--good or bad--but I feel incredibly dissatisfied and disappointed…read morewith my experience at Dr. Vasserman's office. I was recommended to this office by someone I truly trust, as I am not originally from NYC. The office itself is nice, and Corrie is typically friendly. For a basic teeth cleaning, this place is fine. However, if you need any significant dental work, I strongly urge you to reconsider. In 2022, my teeth had shifted due to Invisalign, and I wanted to have my front tooth (tooth #8), which had a crown from a childhood injury, redone so that it aligned properly. I initially considered finding a specialist but decided to go with Dr. Vasserman--something I deeply regret. Trust your intuition--if something feels off, it probably is. When I discussed my needs with Dr. Vasserman in April 2022, he assured me it would take only a few weeks. However, after many emails and back-and-forth conversations, I was informed that it would actually take eight weeks just for the lab in Chicago to begin my case. This was a complete contradiction to what I was initially told. When the crown finally arrived months later, I was shocked. This was supposed to be from the best of the best lab, yet the tooth looked nothing like the rest of my teeth. I don't understand why he didn't use a lab in NYC where I could have been directly involved in the process. It became increasingly clear that he didn't know what he was doing when it came to cosmetic dental work. After much back-and-forth, and clear frustration from Dr. Vasserman, we eventually landed on a tooth that was "acceptable"--but by this point, it was July. Between April and July, my temporary tooth fell out multiple times, I had to go back and forth to the office countless times, and I constantly questioned my decision to have him do the work. The worst part? Any time I called for an update or to get help, it often felt like the office was avoiding me. Calls would go unanswered, and I would have to follow up multiple times just to get basic information. The lack of communication and accountability was infuriating. Fast forward to November 2024--I started experiencing severe pain and discomfort in my front tooth. The pain was unbearable, keeping me up at night and even giving me headaches. I switched dentists due to my previous experience and didn't feel comfortable returning to Dr. Vasserman. Well, turns out my instincts were right--I now have a serious infection in the tooth. The crown wasn't even cemented properly, leaving it loose and unstable. The infection has become so severe that my tooth is now unsalvageable. I have to undergo major surgery, including tooth extraction and bone grafting, because the infection has eroded my bone. Here's the most frustrating part: I have had this tooth redone three times in my life, and never--not once--have I had an issue like this until this last procedure. The fact that I trusted a dentist who clearly lacked the skill and experience for this type of work is devastating. The moral of the story? If something feels off, trust yourself. Go to a specialist. If I had listened to my gut, I wouldn't be dealing with this nightmare now. If you only need a cleaning, this place is fine. But for any serious dental work, I cannot recommend this office and would strongly advise against going here.
