When I have dental insurance, I've been coming here. I moved for a time and experienced another…read moredentist, which was totally great as well. After coming back here, I've noticed some changes. Yeah, they could update their office a bit - but if it works, it works. My issue is that, upon returning, I've had a newer dentist that doesn't have bedside manner. Very gruff, short and to the point, and not really explanatory. I can be alright with that if you're competent and good at your job. But, in the times I've been, it seems like he goes out of his way to activate my gag reflex. Yes, I have one and I warn people about it - but if you're in my mouth and then just start wriggling around, of course I'm going to gag. What was the reason for you to start doing that? And, if there is a reason, let me know - part of a gag reflex is a control thing. Also, if I've just gagged, don't ask if you can try again 10 seconds later - there's a process to gain composure and it takes time. I've worked with a bunch of dentists. The best ones operate on a consent model - "I'm going to do this now, okay?" is a very clear and powerful question. It makes the process easier and it is communicative. The hygienists here are usually pretty good. Friendly and probably trying to make up for the fact that they have someone who doesn't relate to patients well. Cleanings have been generally pretty good for me in the past few years. Quick, easy, and I'm out. I miss Dr. Burgler! Lastly, I sent in a payment a month ago yet got a reminder bill for the same payment. I'm pretty sure it's their office not processing the payment quick enough - not me having never sent a payment. So, how about a chill?

I've always been happy with Dr. Bob's - until today. Scheduling has been so difficult. I tried via…read morethe website & that doesn't work. No available appointments. Ugh!

When I arrived, I was asked if I was told at the time I made my appointment about the change with…read moremy insurance. I said no. She told me they no longer work with my insurance but they will still except me. The new way it works is that you pay in full up front with a discount and then I have to submit to my insurance for reimbursement. Then she said I was okay for that day, that they'll submit it because they are not fully switched over yet. But because of that, and I know it's because of that, I received the worse service ever from a dentist office. From time I sat in the chair until I got out, 10 minutes!!! It was rushed and incomplete for a cleaning. Didn't do half of what other hygienist do. When you leave a dentist , you can feel the difference in your teeth. Not me, only pain! It's been almost 4 hours now and still in pain! Also, no X-rays either! Even though I was not only a new patient, but when asked how long it's been since my last X-rays and that being at least 3 years, still no X-rays! I even told them I have pain like as if i have a cavity! Still nothing! Said I'm good and it's just recession! ‍ You can't tell me they're not worried about being reimbursed! I've never felt so rushed in my life!

Allentown Dental is the best. I've been coming here since around 2013, I believe. I started out…read morewith Dr. Weinman, who was my favorite dentist of all time (I have had about 12 dentists throughout my life). He had a fantastic bedside manner that put people at ease, was very gentle, and I liked that he never once tried to upsell me on procedures or treatments I didn't need. So, I was sad when I heard he was going to sell the practice, because I figured I'd never find another dentist who I liked. But then Dr. Korn came into the picture! I find her style to be very similar to Dr. Weinman. (Which makes sense, because if I am not mistaken, I believe he was her mentor?) Dr. Korn is fantastic. She takes time to answer questions, she has a gentle touch, and I trust her with pointy/loud tools in my mouth. She's done a fair bit of work on my teeth, including repairing a chip in between my two front teeth. I can hardly remember precisely where the chip was now, because it looks so natural and has held up to my (probably overly rough) flossing. There's great staff in this office, from the front desk to the hygienists. Cheryl, one of the hygienists, is wonderful. Great bedside manner, and she's also gentle. Plus, she is compassionate and nonjudgemental, which is important if you have any shame about the state of your teeth. Also, my husband has Lauren as his hygienist, and he absolutely loves the way she cleans his teeth. Bonus about this office: It is spotlessly clean and beautiful inside. Looks modern and upscale (but not pretentious), so that can help put you at ease. (You can know you're not going to be uncomfortable in some dingy old office with questionable stains on the carpet, dental chairs with weird odors, mouse droppings in the corner, and out-of-date dental equipment. I've been to a couple like that! LOL.)

It had been quite a while since I had last seen a dentist, let's just say that. I had noticed two…read moredifferent gray/dark areas on two of my lower teeth and was concerned about the little gap I could feel where the bottom of the tooth ended and where the gums began. First appointment was just an initial check-up and cleaning. The staff are all very friendly and the atmosphere is very relaxed. I was a bit nervous about my next appointment though, where the doc would get rid of that decay and fill it over. Never had a cavity in my life, now I'm 43 and it's all coming apart!! I went in for the fillings and wow, let me tell you - #1, I didn't even feel pain from the lidocaine injections given to numb you all up for the actual procedure. Just a bit of pressure. #2, I felt absolutely nothing during the actual removal work. And no, half my face wasn't out of commission nor did I drool or speak very incoherently lol. I do not have insurance, so I was pleasantly surprised by their prices. 10/10 will return as long as I live in this area!! NOT RELATED TO THE PLACE OF BUSINESS, JUST AN OBSERVATION FOR PEOPLE WITH NERVOUS HABITS---- However, I will warn any people with nervous habits that involve chewing or biting on your lips: the total numbness is going to cause you blisters the next day. I noticed myself doing it soon after the appointment and thought "OKAY you're going to have to stop doing that..." but alas, by the next day I had a weird looking sore on my lip where I bite it, pretty subconsciously, until now. Luckily that healed quick. But that's my own damn fault.

After 14 years of struggling with chronic sinus issues, cystic acne, and inflammation, a CBCT scan showed several hidden jawbone infections from where my wisdom teeth were removed.

It's been a little over 3 months since my final cavitation surgery and it has completely changed my health.

We weren't happy with that practice for many reasons, and Altman Dental was recommended to us by many families that we are friends with. He sees me and my husband and even my 9 year old! He LOVES Dr. Altman ( even more than his Pediatrician which says a lot!). I just came here to say that I always have a great experience with the front desk ladies, while I'm in the chair Dr. Altman is conversational and is humorous and informative and explains what's happening as he's doing it. Today the first step of my implant has started and I needed this tooth pulled. It was a great experience! I don't doubt that he will check on me later. If you are looking for a new practice, I highly recommend!!! I have even seen Dr. Gellert and he's wonderful too. So glad we switched years ago. You will be in great hands coming here! 5 star practice from when you walk in and see the staff, to cleanings and procedures with the dentist! Thank you Altman Dental! Carrie Tsakiris
