    I brought my 6 year old daughter here who had a cavity and could not get in her regular pediatric…read moredentist to fill it. They said it would be fine to bring her in. We got there and were brought in the room. Dr. Walenjus arrived in the room and before I could ask questions he shot her mouth with novacane. My daughter has never experienced that and she was crying out in pain. There was no communication with me about when he would start or what to expect. He started to use tools that looked fit for an adult. She was in pain but not given the opportunity to raise her hand for a break or anything. There was SUCH a lack of care, gentleness, empathy or parental respect that it left me feeling so angry but also violated. I will never, ever return here and hope that anyone reading this does not put their child or themselves through such a traumatic experience.

    Dr. Dan has been running this practice for the past 10-15 years. I've been going to the practice…read morefor about 40 years since we moved to this area. the practice has always been defined by excellence. Each dentist as they retired made sure there was a dentist taking the practice over who continued the quality and care that the practice has always been based on. Dr. Dan keeps up on all the newest techniques and equipment - some of them have greatly removed the fear of dentistry. Dr. Dan not only received kudos from the various rating services, but also from his patients. When someone I like asks for a dentist recommendation, it's always Dr. Dan. If I don't like the person so much - I'll tell them I don't know. No need to fill up the office with unpleasant people. The staff is great - no turnover, same people greet you and sincerely ask how you are when you arrive. Appointments are always on time, and emergencies are fitted in seamlessly. Great practice, great dentist.

    I can't say enough good things about Dr. Sarah at Brielle Dentistry. I had two front, highly…read morevisible veneers replaced after a terrible experience less than 10 years ago with another dentist, and I was extremely hesitant to go through the process again. From the start, Dr. Sarah was confident, calm, and reassuring. She took incredible time and care with my temporaries--they were secure, comfortable, and shaped beautifully, which immediately put me at ease. For the first time, I wasn't worried they would fall out. When it came time for the permanent veneers, we were unsure about the color at first, but Dr. Sarah said to try them in and reassured me we could redo them if needed. She was right--they were a perfect match. She even scheduled a follow-up to make sure I was completely happy. Dr. Sarah and her assistant were patient, meticulous, and truly passionate about their work. After years of stress over this process, I finally feel at ease knowing my smile is in expert hands, and I'm so grateful I found Brielle Dentistry.

    I have been debating writing this review for quite a while, since Brielle Dentistry Co seems to…read moreonly get rave reviews here and people appear to have had good experiences with them, but please consider my personal experience with them a cautionary tale. I went there for an emergency root canal, which went well, although I had to wait in the chair doing nothing for 45 minutes, before they finally started working on me, consequently making me late for work. Everyone was very nice and apologetic, but that was a bad first impression for me. They pushed the comprehensive dental exam for a later date, which I did get. They found many many issues with my teeth and gums, which really surprised me, as I practice excellent oral hygiene every day. Long story short - I moved to another state not long after this and found a dentist here, who did the exact same exam - all the bite-wing and panoramic x-rays, photos, physical exam, etc., and found only a tiny fraction of what Brielle "found." For example - Brielle told me I needed to get 2 back teeth extracted. I knew of one tooth, given what was going on, but the other tooth they wanted to extract turned out to be perfectly healthy and fine, with absolutely no need to extract, per my current dentist. Brielle also pointed out other work I needed to get done - another example: deep scaling - while the dentist I go to now found no issues whatsoever with my gums. And there were others. Needless to say, I would never to back to them.

    Small procedure, face swelled, could not reach doctor for days, had to make an emergency visit…read moreelsewhere for medication, received these responses (texts shown in pictures), paid and 2 years later (1st time hearing of this), I owe $697.40. Terrible bed side manner, rude, condescending between doctor and staff and I had to go back then...because I already paid a decent amount! Oh and to solve everything... was put on antibiotics for nearly SIX WEEKS and had multiple side effects from this. I should have charged Sage for those bills! I should have never gone back and should have taken different measures! I had so many problems and was in pain for WEEKS and lost days of work! So many regrets! I guess this was the price tag to all my extra visits for the severe infection I had...finally receiving a call back after 2 days of trying and I am told to use salt water rinse in a text, wait again and call back if the infection persists! Better be some magic salt water! Can't believe that didn't correct it all, when I was given medication for 2 weeks three times in a row back to back to back! And the doctor had the nerve to ask me "What response was I looking for?" in a text, when he finally responded. And it continues...2 YEARS LATER WHEN I THOUGHT THIS WAS ALL BEHIND ME!!!! This experience has made me fearful of ever sitting in a dentist chair again. It was an absolute nightmare. Unbelievable! GOOD JOB DEBORAH on representing your business and always saying the same thing to each customer that reviews this place badly. If everyone keeps stating the same thing...it must be our own faults! You know nothing and you were not there. You know nothing of my timeline and about the horrendous events that occurred during my visit there. You can smell the awkwardness when I walked through the door to make sure I was happy after the suffering that I was caused there so I wouldn't take other measures against this place. Say whatever you want...you don't have the facts! And in my opinion, for others that may walk through that door, this is a productive dialogue! I have nothing to lose here!
