I cannot recommend Dr. Patrick Pecora and his team at Always Smiles enough! I came to him in absolute despair as an emergency patient with a complex dental issue. Because of past issues with prevous dentists, I also have extreme dental anxiety. The day before, a different dentist told me my situation was 'hopeless' and and she couldn't help me and I left her office discouraged.
Dr. Pecora was recommended to me (Thank you, Tad), and he had a different attitude! I had a great first impression of him almost immediately. He has a calm and friendly dental chairside manner--he listened to my situation, calmed my nerves, and refused to give up on me. He spent time thinking completely out of the box to engineer a solution. Even when the first couple of things he tried didn't work out, he kept patiently trying until he found a solution.
I was able to walk out of his office with my smile intact. Best of all, he charged me a completely fair price even though my insurance was his out-of-network.
If you have a complicated dental issue or suffer from severe dental anxiety or want a dentist that "thinks out of the box", please do yourself a favor and see Dr. Pecora! read more
