Surely the most intimidating thing about moving into a new area is to find new service providers,…read morewith the most insurmountable task of all, finding a dentist that you feel comfortable with. I'm happy to share that I have found that very dentist. I take good care of my teeth and typically go in for routine cleanings every six months and rarely have cavities. But when I do have the occasional problems that pop up every 3 or 4 years, they are significant and costly. Normally I get ahead of things before they become an issue but with my big move and a pretty intense past 10 months or so, I had gone an entire year without a cleaning or exam. And then an old crown popped off when I was flossing, reminding me that I better get my ass to the dentist. I searched for a dentist on Yelp and was finding that barely any are reviewed around these parts! And then I found Mel Mel Dental with what appeared to be a very sincere 5 star review, so I took a chance. In all my years of going to dentists, I find my experience here to be the best of all. I rarely if ever, have to wait. There's a family-like atmosphere amongst the staff that makes one feel immediately comfortable. If you look at their website, they give a bio on everyone from reception to hygienists to Dr. Suditu himself. So cool! I actually look forward to seeing the staff and Theresa, the dental assistant, is particularly great to talk to. She makes you feel immediately comfortable as if you're about to share a bottle of wine rather than get dental work done. Finally, a note on painless dentistry. Dr. Suditu is particularly careful to explain exactly what is going on from anesthesia (he expertly administers the shot so that you barely feel it) to the procedure itself. Similarly, he explains your options and takes insurance coverage into consideration. These are all the things that can cause stress in a patient. Now, if only I can find a doctor that I like even half as much...

I've been going to Dr. Chris since maybe 2007 or so and have always had a good experience. In the…read morepast they sometimes hired other dentists who weren't as good, but has mostly been Dr. Chris (and on rare occassion his dad who still chips in now and then) for the past decade. Some of the lower reviews are about front of the office staff, which I vaguely recall being a bit gruff, 10+ years ago but everyone the past few years have been lovely. I have had two root canals (hey I'm 40 such is life) and one was done excellently by Dr. Chris during 2020 in COVID. He did a great job relieving the pain I had been in for a few months. Anyway, highly recommend this practice 10 out of 10 for the last decade or so.

My family and I have been coming to this dental office for over 7 years, and the consistency of…read morecare has been outstanding. There was a time when I didn't have dental insurance and needed a crown replaced--Dr. Chris went above and beyond to help me, offering a fair and reasonable solution without compromising quality. His kindness, honesty, and steady professionalism truly set him apart. As someone who gets a little anxious in the dental chair, I can honestly say Dr. Chris has earned my full trust. He's gentle, patient, and takes the time to explain everything in a way that puts you at ease. I've recommended this office to friends and family, and I'll continue to do so for years to come. It's rare to find a dentist who's not only skilled but genuinely cares--this office checks every box!

Just a year later, when Dr. Jo was in college, his professor told him he needed ten more credits to receive his degree. He was informed he had to pass an oral-oral exam. In a dreamlike state, Dr. Jo simply yawned, showed the bite of his wisdom, and then graduated with a GPA of 4.0penwide. Besides the minor accomplishment of perhaps being the nicest person to ever live, Dr. Jo is the best dentist I have ever known--knowledgable, clear, and precise. Dr. Jo is my incisor advisor, my molar patroller, and my pearly white knight in shining armor.

My experience was less ideal. After a failed root canal and 2 infections done at this office, and…read moremight I add it took five times to finally finish this tooth I was experiencing tremendous pain. Nothing was revealed ,A second opinion from this dentists colleague found nothing. Mind you this was close to $2000 worth of dental care. Had a retreat done in New Jersey by a specialist to the tune of about $1700. It was found that the tooth was cracked and needed to come out that was another $1700 now for the implant which was 2800$ for the stud and 2000$ for the tooth. All in all this came from a botched root canal that I had done in this office the money and pain that I have experienced will never be rectified. My advice go to a specialist if you're going to have any dental work done.....

First; the staff is wonderful Heather, Luann and all the team are so nice... Dr B Smiles is terrific.... I watched him with the children and his manner with them was wonderful. I was also surprised I was not the only senior in the practice... evidently orthodontics for the senior set is becoming more common. I chose the behind the teeth type of appliance. I had never realized how out of alignment my teeth were until shortly after the braces were put on the teeth started to move. The check up appointments went as scheduled meaning there was no wait and a 30 minute visit was just that. I also appreciated the text message reminder a few days before and again that morning. The office is cheery all the windows --- even on a gray day it is bright! . With braces I immediately had something to talk about to the cashier while waiting for my coffee. People were always surprised that I was wearing braces --- they were not visible at all It took some getting used to but I am very pleased with the final result. I Highly recommend Dr. B Smiles and his whole team. .

The focus was always on prevention - from getting my teeth back into basic good shape on my first visit, to dealing with issues like impacted molars and gum pockets.

This practice is top notch and reminds me of how dentists offices were when I was a boy. EVERYONE is friendly, welcoming and caring and Dr. Julie knows her stuff.

He reviewed the report from my endodontist that performed the root canal due to an infection in this tooth and Dr. Z said it sure was a bad infection! This crown was recently put in by another dental practice and was left untreated for months after it was sensitive to hot & cold temperatures. "Batman" said I had too much going on with my teeth and that he would not treat me. My lower jaw and gums have been hurting for a while due to impacted wisdom teeth that 2 oral surgeons are afraid to extract and other specialists misdiagnosed me with TMJ. Due to the fact that I have problems , he stated that my case is too complicated and he referred me to a specialist, which is defined as the branch of dentistry that deals with the restoration and maintenance of oral function by the replacement of missing teeth and other oral structures by artificial devices. Note that I do not have any missing teeth and that Dr. Joel Zaritski didn't even take the time to look at my in my mouth and at my teeth. I even asked, "you mean you wouldn't even do a filling out some cosmetic bonding?" NO he answered, nothing as he stood as far away from me as he could with his arms crossed! Make sure your dental work doesn't take much work or intelligence as this practice doesn't seem to want to work, think or do business with someone who needed a bit of compassion! No Magic trick performed this time "BATMAN" ... so fly away, fly away !!!
