Unknowing and non-insured elderly patient was robbed. After close to 20 fittings it was revealed that she wanted to remove some perfectly good partials and proceeded to so do for $600.00 more for paper clip sized, sharp metal prongs which jabbed my gums and she and one of the (owners) would not fix or refund me anything. She admitted that she did not follow the surgeon's instructions to prepare an immediate denture, decided on her own to make it a permanent one. She indicated, very much along in the awful fitting process, that she wanted to sell me implants. I am in my last decade and out of $6,600.00. Can only eat chopped, soft foods. No pizza, no pretzels, salads, hard roll sub/sandwiches, and everyone's favorite, crispy bacon. Get it? My inability to chew any food for a well balanced diet, leaves me with constant pain in my mouths soft tissue, as well as irritable digestion. Getting worse as time marches on. If all you want from dental care is teeth whitening and movie-star, close-ups they may be o.k. This place ruined the beginning of the time I have left. It cannot be reversed.

I poke to them over the phone and they were very accommodating and and got me an appointment for my cleaning that was due that was only a week away. The Hygienist Jada that did my cleaning was the best I'd ever had. She didn't make me go ouch once. I'm not sure that has ever happened. The Dentist came in and introduced himself and we talked about the possible need for a Crown on a tooth that the prev dentist told me was needed. He said that it doesn't need it right away and suggested I wait until my next cleaning and we can evaluate it again then. I did get a bill for $20 a couple weeks later though, but I happily paid it. I don't mind paying a few extra $ for a good dentist. My teeth and not having pain are far more important.

Medical assistant - Felicia made me feel comfortable and at ease during the entire visit. She held my hand and coached me through my wisdom teeth extraction process and aftercare. She's an angel! Dr. Aruri - knowledgeable and pleasant. He explained to me why and how he does things. He showed me my X-ray as he made his recommendation without me asking! (none of my previous dentists did this). He removed two of my upper wisdom teeth at once using local anesthesia without any difficulty. Since I prophylactically took 800 mg ibuprofen before the extraction, I felt pretty comfortable up to 5 hours post procedure. Mild aching here and there x 2 days after but tolerable. I was able to eat/drink within 24 hours later without any complications. I highly recommend Dr. Aruri for your dental needs.

Literally not even 4 minutes passed I called them RIGHT BACK and no one answers so I called again and still no answer I left a voicemail saying I was just on the phone with someone and I am trying to take the opening for 9AM tomorrow if someone can just call me back I am experiencing alot of discomfort..... no one called me back I had my husband and mother call the line to see if it was working and still no one was picking up ... I live 5 minutes up the road from them so out of desperation I drove there to try and secure the appointment in person ... there was a sign on the door that said "be back at 12:10" so at this point it's been an hour they haven't been answering and 1210 would bring them back from a "BREAK" In two hours... I called 5 more times left another voicemail desperately asking them to please call me back and continues to call them an additional 5 more times and never heard from them ... what kind of Dentistry IGNORES people after literally hearing my desperation not even 5 minutes before deciding they were just gonna enjoy a day off ???

**DENTAL IMPLANTS FELL OUT WITHIN DAYS - Extremely Disappointed**…read more I had a terrible experience with New Haven Dental Group in Hamden. I had two dental implants placed last August, but they fell out within days. I reached out to the office immediately, only to be informed that the doctor was on vacation in Italy and that I would have to wait until his return. When I requested to see another doctor, I was told I would have to wait two weeks for the original doctor to come back. Despite making several requests to be seen sooner, I was repeatedly told that I had to wait. During this two-week period, I suffered without care, and it felt like my well-being didn't matter to them. I endured over two weeks of discomfort, including bleeding and aching gums. Eventually, after escalating my concerns to their parent company, 42 North Dental, I received a refund four months later.
