My dentist referred me to Dr. Sokoloff to have a molar pulled and implant. I was told by his…read morestaff that I needed a driver for the tooth pull. At my appointment, I learned that the reason for the driver was Dr. Sokoloff would not pull a tooth without sedation. I was reluctant to allow that (a tooth pull does NOT require sedation - a local anesthetic is what most dentists use) but I decided there must be a reason my dentist referred me to him and I followed through. I ended up with severe chronic pain in my jaw and my ear. I had nothing else happen besides him pulling my tooth and it was immediately after. Dr. Sokoloff emphatically denied that anything he did caused my pain. I went to my Primary Care Physician who examined me and concurred it was from the dental work and that she believed he had forced my mouth open too wide during anesthesia. I returned with a letter I had written, including the fact that there was no need for anesthesia in the first place, that my PCP assessed the pain from Dr. Sokoloff's rough treatment during sedation, and that I would NOT allow anesthesia for the implant so I could monitor his procedure and tell him if he was hurting me. He continued to deny it (scared of a lawsuit I'm sure) and refused to perform the implant without sedation. I wanted to find another dentist for the implant but....at that point, I realized it would be more costly to go elsewhere. I absolutely threatened him that if I woke up to jaw pain and ear ache I was suing him (not a great way to go into surgery). Fortunately, I had no pain after the implant. I suggest you have a regular dentist pull the tooth and go somewhere else for the implant. I won't go back and I absolutely do not recommend him. I think his insisting on sedation for a pulled tooth is to coverup anything that goes wrong during procedure. (Note: many oral surgeons do NOT require sedation for these procedures and without anesthesia (or the very expensive mal-practice insurance that is needed), the cost will be significantly less. Just find another oral surgeon.

If you have to get some wisdom teeth pulled, it may as well be here! Dr. Sokoloff is amazing, and…read morehis staff is so sweet and attentive. I'd never had any surgery before, and the staff here made me feel totally at ease. They play whatever music you want as you drift off, and they're joking around and being so casual, you wouldn't think you're about to have surgery. The waiting room could use an update, but whatever. Dr. Sokoloff called me the next day, and made everything feel like a total breeze. My first wisdom tooth that had to come out was an emergency, and even though they had a long wait for wisdom tooth surgeries, they were able to fit me in the next week when I told them it was infected, and how much pain I was in. 100% recommend Dr. Sokoloff to anybody!

I don't even know where to begin. Everyone was just so nice and respectful, and professional and happy to be at work! The receptionists were just lovely. The woman (I forget her name and job title, regrettably) who did my cleaning and X-rays was just a saint!! She went out of her way to calm me down and make me feel comfortable, gave helpful and encouraging advice, and just showed genuine compassion and understanding. The best part was the cleaning itself. Literally every single time I have told new dentists I have sensitive teeth. Still every single time the cleanings were downright torturous. But not here!!! I told her I had sensitive teeth, so she went out of her way to make sure it wouldn't hurt! I didn't feel a thing, except that awesome clean feeling afterward. It's been a few weeks now but I still just cannot get over how amazing the experience here was. Now I FINALLY have a dentist I can make my own permanently.

I recently had seven successful implants and one extraction done by Dr. Capuano, and the experience…read morewas truly exceptional. This was my fourth oral surgery, but my first time at this office. My previous three surgeries were at a different office. I actually liked the oral surgeon, and during our consultation, he felt confident that he could successfully place two or three implants. Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned. The first surgery was extracting five teeth, the second one was attempting to place the implants and the third was removing them after they failed. If I had remained with that office, the surgeon explained that one possible treatment was a mesh implant, but estimated it had only about a 50% chance of success. Another option was dentures, which was incredibly discouraging. The difference in the final results between these two offices is night and day. Before, my mouth was left raw, red, and incredibly painful. This time, Dr. Capuano's work was clean and stitched up beautifully. He and his entire staff were amazing, compassionate, and answered all of my questions . They turned a stressful situation into a massive success. I cannot recommend Dr. Capuano highly enough!

When my dentist Dr. Grasskemper of Bellport told me this, I was far from thrilled! He recommended Dr.Bear and I'm happy he did. From the start the office manager Mindy made me feel comfortable and relaxed. Dr.Bears assistant Yvonne did her best to try to assure me that all will be fine and talked to me to help relax me before the procedure. Dr. Bear himself was very reassuring and made sure I was as comfortable as possible during the whole procedure. To be quite honest I was expecting the worse and what I experienced was a caring comfortable experience , ( as comfortable as oral surgery can be) . Dr. Bear made sure throughout the entire procedure that I was okay and explained things along the way making me feel safe in his care. While periodontal surgery is on no ones Christmas list, if you need to have it done I highly recommend Dr. Bear and his staff. While I have more yet to be done in the future , I will now be less anxious knowing it's a caring professional staff who will do their personal best to get me through these procedures.
