I've always had a fear instilled in me of going to the dentist. I had a cavity that was bothering me for months now so I decided to go ahead and book an appointment with Dr. Aznavour since his practice was close by. He took care of my cavity without any problems that I felt nothing! He also has a terrific bedside manner and is extremely knowledgeable in what he does. Highly recommend!

I had a crown put on my front tooth to "improve my smile" since one of my front teeth was discolored. The crown fell out while I was talking with a friend three months later after absolutely no trauma. I went to Dr. Runco to have it repaired and he put the crown back in, in the wrong position, in front of all of my other teeth, and cemented the crown to the two teeth next to it "so it wouldn't fall out." It looks and feels terrible. It is now less than one week later and it is wiggling and flapping when I speak and I cannot bite down on it. I deeply regret having trusted Dr. Runco; the work he

Why would you reject treating a kid if you already gave an appointment knowing that the patient is a kid? Dr. Clinton stopped the procedure without providing any explanation to us as soon as my kid started to get scared. What do you expect a kid to react to a dental operation, such as filling? But just out of fairness, an old receptionist lady helped us find another dentist for her. Thanks to her! Other than that, Dr. Clinton wasted my and my daughter's time. That is all! I don't recommend this place to anybody.

Dr. Runco's office adds aggravation to the joy of dental work.
I booked my first appointment online through the ZocDoc. When I arrived the office had no record of my appointment and asked me to reschedule. The subsequent visit went well enough. The oral hygienist was pleasant, if not particularly thorough. Dr. Runco stopped by and said hello for a few minutes. I received the bill for this visit four months later; my dental insurance had not been billed.
This morning I arrived ten minutes early for my 10:30 am appointment. The receptionist informed me that my appointment had been at 10 AM. I showed

They are great! I love the staff and they have a policy that if it is not bothering you, they do not try to fix it. My husband was told he needs his wisdom teeth out, but then we went here and they said he does not. They do not bother him, so thank goodness we saved on the time and energy on that one!
