I have been looking for a dentist for about 2 years since my forget dentist retired (I was with that office for 25 years). I had my cleaning and had to come back for a filling and crown. Both visits were amazing. Not only is the staff friendly and knowledgeable, but this office has amazing state of the art equipment. I think I’ve finally found a new dentist!

This place is a money pit.
After having a rough experience with Invisalign with a different dentist, I was looking for someone to bond 2 of my teeth and give me a retainer. My first appointment was pleasant, but felt rushed and the staff seemed uninterested in my case. Months later, I decided to go through with the bonding, as I was desperate for my teeth to be fixed. The dentist, Josh, did a great job with my bonds. My problem is with the retainers. During my first appointment, the staff told me to get a permanent retainer for an increased price, which I denied. I stated that I wanted a simple

Truly a 5 star experience, every time I go there I feel as I'm going to the most prestigious dentist office in NY because that truly is what it is! It doesn't look or feel like your typical dentist office- it's SO much nicer! If you aren't used to having calming dental visits, try South Shore Aesthetic Dentistry! After not having gone to the dentist in upwards of 10 years due to not having dental insurance I had a good bit of work that needed to be done and every appointment was smooth and seamless, the doctors are so friendly and the staff is sweet as well.
