Best 19 Dental Clinics and Dentists in Syracuse, NY new update 1

Jeffrey Fields we got in into our appointment within 10 minutes of arrival. The staff was friendly and efficient. Everyone was smiling. The exam by the dentist was quite short however we were glad there were no issues. Would have liked to have the cleaning done but understand being understaffed. We are hoping to get in before November which was the first available appointment.

Dillon Wright I been to the dentist a lot of times BUT this is the first time I never felt ANY pain after I left the office. Dr.matthews was and is VERY kind and gentle with EVERYONE and explains everything to u before he does it. I would go there again and I will make sure and tell everyone haw he is bc that’s the only reason why I’d go there AGAIN thanks again my teeth are GREAT.

Jeri Whowell In general the staff is very nice. Even though the building from the outside looks dilapidated the staff use state of the art equipment. The only issue Ive had is them having me return multiple times to finish a root canal with over a hour drive it can be quite annoying. Plus they have very limited staff for adults so wait times can be 8 months just for a cleaning.

Amy McCune Anna is the most caring dental hygienist my family has ever encountered. She demonstrated exceptional patience with loving kindness to our Down Syndrome daughter who is a challenging patient. Dr.Streiff and Anna thoughtfully took the extra time and put in the extra effort to examine and clean my daughter’s teeth. My daughter, my husband and myself left feeling encouraged, respected and joyful. The gentleman who checked us out is always helpful and friendly as well.This is an extraordinary dental office! Great Team Work Everyone! We are so thankful and grateful to have you as our Dental Provider.

Anna Julia I just saw Dr. Gallup today and she was wonderful. I hadnt been to the dentist in a long time just due to just life and insurance struggles and they never made me feel bad or put me down for it. She was very positive and uplifting, comfortable to speak to and very personable. I had a male dental assistant who was very sweet as well and I cant remember his name! But he was great also. I did hours of research on dentists and I left there super happy about my decision to go to James Street Dental Arts!! I will be taking my whole family here now.

laura malkoske I am so thankful that I was able to return as a patient to James Street Dental Arts. I pay one annual fee for the wellness program, the benefits definitely outweigh the cost (includes 2 dental cleanings, X-rays, emergency exam, etc.). Especially considering the incredible job that the staff does every time I come in! There is never a wait which I greatly appreciate as I have 2 jobs, so it can be a challenge scheduling appointments so I really like that my time is not spent sitting in a waiting room. Yesterday Carolyn cleaned my teeth, not only does she do an excellent job but she is so personable and nice! Truly cannot say enough kind things about the staff! Thank you for all that you do!

Ahmad Zatar I definitely have to rewrite my previous review. Initially, I had a hard time getting in touch to make an appointment as a new patient for my kids. But after experiencing this place firsthand, I regretted everything I said. What an amazing experience! My three-year-old son, who usually can’t sit still, was calmly sitting and having a blast while the doctor and nurses did their work. And remember — this is a dentist’s office! Most people dread going to the dentist, but this place completely changed my perspective. They have so many dentist doctors available, which makes scheduling easier and ensures you’re always in good hands. The nurses and doctors were incredibly patient and caring. You could genuinely feel how much they treat each child like their own family member. Now I understand why “family” is part of their name. They also have a TV hanging on top. If you have kids and are nervous about taking them to the dentist, I highly recommend bringing them here. You won’t regret it!

brittany rondeau What a great dentists office! We went today for my sons first ever visit and they were amazing with him. He loved the ocean theme and the games in the waiting area. The TV on the ceiling in the exam room was a hit as well. Friendly and efficient staff. Very happy we ended up there!

Claire Hatch This is the best pediatric dentist I’ve ever been to, all the staff is super nice! I love the environment, you get in and out so fast and even better everything is explained in detail to you so you know exactly whats going on and they’re all so good with kids HIGHLY recommend. Also how cute is all the marine life! They have an arcade for the kids and a slide

Elaine Simons My experience has always been positive. The office staff are always pleasant and helpful. Ive never had an issue or a problem with any of the procedures done in this office. Dr. Vlassis is great, always explains what he is doing and attentive to your comfort.

Paul Sitzer I had a very good first experience. He has a wonderful staff that are very attentive. He explained actually what he would be doing with my procedure. My follow up is very quick. His staff explained my costs and different ways to pay. I feel very confident with him.

Rose Marie Jones My experience was, as always, of the highest quality. I have been a patient for many years because of my implants, which require regular professional cleaning. Jody is a true professional, combining skill with a friendly approach. Dr. Vlassis checks me after every cleaning, which I find reassuring. He is always pleasant and listens carefully to any concerns I have. I cant leave the office staff out. They are all very much involved in making each visit as free of stress as possible. Their friendly, professional approach achieves this.

steve moore I had never been to Aspen before and I had an emergency visit as I had a tooth basically break off after biting into something hard! It was Friday afternoon and near closing time. I had an amazing experience. I interacted with three different people and they were all nothing short of great. They made an comfortable visit just a minor blip in my day. And to be honest I hate going to the dentist but they made it as good as humanly possible. Thanks Dewitt Aspen!!! I highly recommend them!

Russell Tarbell Had a chipped tooth and needed a place for cleanings. Everyone from start to finish was informative and efficient. Got me in and out very fast. The Dentist did a fantastic job on my tooth. Very pleased and highly recommend.

Kate Kisselstein I needed a last-minute appointment because I cracked a tooth right before the weekend. (Never chew ice!) All of the staff, from the assistants to the dentist, were so compassionate & caring, but I have to give a special shoutout to Beth, the hygienist, who was gentle in the initial assessment of my teeth & in the 3D mapping scan that needed to be done in prep for an implant. Also to Susan, the office manager, who walked me through my different payment options based on what my insurance will cover to find one I was comfortable with.

Daronda Shepard I came to this office after a Dentist I had been with for over 20 years retired. The front desk staff was welcoming and kind. The care here is phenomenal!! Dr. Santay and his team go above and beyond to provide you with the best care and treatment options. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Robin Post The staff is friendly, professional and knowledgeable about oral health. They did the most thorough exam of my teeth that I have ever had done. They also worked with me to make a plan for my future dental care .

Scott Rich From the front desk to the last exam room in this great facility are the best dental staff! Comfort and care are unequaled in my experience. Thank you Dr Santay for running an amazing practice.

emma kinev The office is really very well organized. Stage by stage the process assures the data needed will come in a right order. Great equipment for X-trays. After all is done the doctor comes to evaluate and what is not completely clear is checked again. Then the plan in my case of some corrections.

Alex Jainchill 1st experience today. Seems great so far. Especially liked someone walking me thru expected costs for the treatment plan. Doctor was very nice, seemed knowledgeable, and didn’t seem to be suggesting anything unnecessary. Glad to have found a good local dentist office.

i n I didnt manage to get pass the extremely rude receptionist to know if the dentists there are any good. But the lady I talked to on the phone was unpleasant about my case which had to do with a travel emergency. They made absolute sure I felt unwelcome and unwanted because I had to have a tooth semi-treated while out of state, and she heavily implied that they dont want to work on other dentists work, fine. So I took my business elsewhere where their receptionists were friendly and understanding, and where the dentists are more than willing to work with me. Dental offices are made with a team of people. They may come with very good dentists, but you still need sensible assistants for other tasks, and the receptionist in this office is not it.

Jessica Grenga Made an appt for 12:30 with proof that it was made and we walk in to them saying it was 12:00 and we can’t see you as our dentist is leaving at 1:00. Took no responsibility saying it was our fault when proof was given of the 12:30 appt time. But yet they say they are open until 3:00. Take responsibility and maybe there would’ve been a different outcome. Generic response from “Owner”, just a change in the name of the person writing the review. Let’s be honest, aspens are not going anywhere even if they get multiple bad reviews.

Shanna Belcamino Was told all teeth were bad and would need to be fixed in different ways, and gave me a 12.5k quote. I could not get a word in with the dentist, an older man. He just kept saying this is what you need and talking over me. Went and got an evaluation at another dentist amd was told I needed to fix 5 teeth, not all of them! Cost half the price. And much more friendly and nice at the new place. Aspen is a total scam!

Devon Espey I hate going to the dentist, but my feelings aside… the team at Aspen took great care of me. The staff members that I worked with were both friendly and helpful. I had an unexpected emergency and was able to get an appointment scheduled later that morning. I appreciated all that the team did for me.

Keith Cullen I had been struggling with confidence in regards to my smile, and I was super nervous going into a new office because of how costly dentistry could be. Dr. Lee is definitely by far the nicest and kindest and most gentle dentist I couldve ever asked for. She was super upfront about everything in regards to my teeth broke down everything for me in terms that I could understand, and made me leave the office feeling more confident with the smile I currently have. So far Ive had a cleaning, a filling, and screening for invisalign. I feel as though the costs were extremely fair and far less than I had anticipated. The staff is also extremely friendly, and I cant wait to go back just for the welcoming environment alone. I also cant stress enough how painless and gentle everything Ive had done was. Also, this business is all women owned, and in our male dominating world that was really amazing to see. If you want a place that cares about you as a patient and individual, I dont think you will find another office quite like this!

Beth Amuso Switching to Smiles by Design completely transformed my dental health and confidence. When I first visited three years ago, my dental situation was far from ideal. I had two missing canines, leaving noticeable gaps in my smile and forcing me to rely on a bulky, uncomfortable flipper/denture. Dr. Stets referred me to an oral surgeon for implants and promptly addressed all my cavities. Once my implants healed, she fit and attached my new canine teeth. I was so thrilled with the results that I decided to have her add veneers to my two front teeth, completing my smile makeover. The entire staff at this dental office is amazing—they’re incredibly friendly, accommodating, and even managed to squeeze me in for emergencies and to finish everything in time for my wedding. Their attention to detail and dedication made the entire process seamless and comfortable—I couldn’t be happier, and I would highly recommend them! (The attached photos show my teeth before, then at my wedding, and on my honeymoon!)

Jenna McDonald Absolutely love this place! I have a lot of trauma when it comes to dental care due to some bad experiences as a child and it took me almost ten years to finally get my teeth cleaned again and Im so glad I chose Smiles by Design. I feel so safe at a woman owned practice and all of the staff and Doctors are so kind and pleasant. I finally took the step to get braces at 30 years old and the entire process has been so seamless. I cant recommend them enough!!

Julie Larsen This is going to be berry good feedback… the entire team was excellent. Very cordial and patient with my daughter for her first visit to the dentist. Highly recommend!

Faith Carter Always so blessed by the staff at Berry Good. I am someone who has had teeth issues since childhood and I feel like they are super thorough and really care about me getting the best treatment for my teeth. Every year I max out on my insurance and they always work with me to set up my treatments for the following year. Not pushy at all always very understanding. So thankful I found Berry Good!

Eddie Rodriguez Big shout out to Dr. Harris and his dental assistant Kimberly. I was nervous going in to my procedure but walking in the front door everyone is so kind I was able to keep myself calm. Throughout the procedure I didn’t feel a thing. They made sure I was comfortable, the other Assistant Crystal was stopping by making sure everything was going smoothly throughout the whole process and honestly everything went great. My fears are out the window I will definitely recommend this office to family/friends. Thank you all amazing team!

A S I was a patient for 4 years. Almost every visit I had a terrible experience with the blonde receptionist. Today was the last straw. 2 pm appointment I arrived at 202 the latest. No one noticed I was in the office for a good 10-15 minutes. I was finally brought back and waited and waited. It was 245 when I had enough and asked to be rescheduled. She said I couldn’t and I said don’t even worry about I will be going somewhere else. She is the same lady that has locked the door as I was walking into my appointment 10 minutes late after confirming to another worker I was running late and I was parking I was walking into the building. I knocked and knocked and the lady I spoke to on the phone was clueless about the door being locked. The blonde receptionist locked the door and said I was too late for my appointment and forced me to reschedule my appointment….but she wouldn’t reschedule an appointment for today that I waited 45 minutes for and couldn’t wait any longer because I had to return to work.

Ashley Argese When I first started going here, I thought it was good - mainly the nice lady who cleaned my teeth. However, when I had to get some basic fillings -- they were done so poorly by the dentist that I had to go back mutilple times to get them fixed. And it was like pulling teeth to get more than a couple words from the dentist. Patients need explanations! One time I went back to get a filling fixed and the doctor said I wouldnt be charged (multiple times). But while I was there the lady at the front desk kept coming in and interrupting the appointment and trying to make him charge me. If the dentist himself says he doesnt want to charge me, WHY WOULD YOU TRY TO? Just started going to a new dentist and they are finding a lot of mistakes and told me it looked like my teeth hadnt been cleaned in years. I wanted to like it, but just not a good experience.

John Talone Decent dental care however my appointment was cancelled with less than 30 minutes notice this morning. I was called by office staff as I was walking in - maybe 5 minutes away. I was the first scheduled patient of the day. Major inconvenience and unprofessional. I will not return.

Jamie Sessler The doctor was very impersonal, did not say hello or good bye. Most importantly, he either did a bad job of checking my chart prior to seeing me or he just dgaf. They found a cavity the first time I was there but I could not afford treatment at that time. On my 6 month follow up I was ready to take care of it. He looked in my mouth for less that a minute then said I was good to go. When I asked about the cavity, he looked confused and had to look at my chart then and there. His poor technicians looked embarrassed for him. I will never go back.

amber bishop Not sure how they have so many fake five star reviews, or where their accurate one star ones have gone, but this office is a disgrace. The staff are pushy and unprofessional, you will be told you need far more work than you actually need, and the work will be done carelessly. I was left in months of pain, Dr. Richter is incompetent and repeatedly failed to inject me in the correct areas to successfully perform an adequate pain block. I was left bruised after he repeatedly tried to force on an ill fitting crown. The entire experience made me so uncomfortable that I went to another dentist who was horrified by what they had started to do to me. Upon bringing up these issues and more, the “office manager” offered me part of my money back if I “came in and signed something”. The entire practice is just predatory on people coming there expecting good care. I hope the state shuts them down. Unethical and disgusting.

Lindsey At my new patient visit I received a cleaning from the hygienist but she did not polish my teeth, even though the toothbrush and toothpaste were on her table. Then, the doctor walked in and introduced himself, sat down, poked around at my teeth, said I need two crowns...the dental assistant thanked him and he walked out the door. That was the extent of my visit. A friend of mine had a new patient visit two days before me and had the same exact experience. I will not be returning. (And I dont believe she will be either.)

Julie Daniel I am so pleased with my experience at Maplewood Denistry on Taft Rd in Liverpool. The staff is always welcoming, professional and knowledgeable. So happy I have chosen this practice!

Jill Huffstater Dr. Saini and her staff are fantastic. They understand those patients that are nervous and anxious about dentist visits and do all they can to calm them down. It took me years to get myself back to a dentist and I am so thankful I found Dr. Saini.

Liz Williams This was my first time going to see Dr. Saini and was a little nervous beforehand but soon felt very comfortable. Dr. Saini and her office staff were great! They were all kind and welcoming.

Karyn Doss Ben, my hygienist does an amazing job! I am truly grateful for Dr. Wolhandler”s care and attention during an implant process. The office staff is very kind and professional. His practice is second to none.

Marilyn Higgins First time I’d been there and everyone was very nice. The girl who took my impressions was very helpful and pleasant. And answered all of my questions and was complimentary during my wanding. Said I was doing a great job and I appreciated that very much.

Linda Bell Ben is my dental hygienist and I want to extend my appreciation for his gentle treatment of my teeth cleaning. Absolutely no discomfort with Ben. Thank you very much Ben. Linda R Bell (Patient for over 20 years)

Mary Anne Kilmer-Kneebis I am 71 yrs old. And this was the most positive experience in a dental office I have ever had. Dr Bradford is gentle and explains things. And I love my implants. The 3 I had done match my teeth perfectly, and I had no pain. Tylenol and Ice controlled it all! I recommend him and his staff highly! Mary Anne

Rebecca Mounce I recently had a consult with Dentist Brent Bradford for implants and he was very thorough with what options were available for me based on my situation. I am so impressed with him and his staff, their explanations, their equipment, their attitudes. I have a lot to think about and he wasn’t pushy at all. I’d like for him to be my full time dentist, I was so impressed!

Buffy L I went for a consultation. Everyone was very friendly. They were very informative and never made me feel rushed. I made my decision right on the spot to get implants and they even got the process going that day by getting my impressions done, instead of making me schedule it out, which was a real plus for me as I was in desperate need to get the process going. I will definitely update the review after the implants are all done. But so far I am happy and my husband will be making an appointment there too.

Erica Gough I have never felt so welcomed and comfortable at a dentist officer before now. The staff is extremely friendly and patient. They have been able to get me in quickly for every appointment. Would highly recommend.

Carmon Phillips The most pleasant dental experience I’ve ever had. Hygienist was very calming and gentle with my X-rays and cleaning. Doctor Kaltaler was very nice. Would highly recommend this practice!

Faith Emlaw I usually have dental anxiety even with just routine visits. My first visit to Liverpool dentistry yesterday was amazing! I had such a great experience with all the staff! Quick to get me back into the exam room! Everyone was so kind and helpful! The hygienist was so thorough! She made me feel at ease and comfortable! Dr. K was so helpful and nice. He explained everything so well I left hopeful and with a clear path of what to do next! The facility was so clean and updated! I am so thankful I found them, in network too!! Now I have a dependable and technology advanced dentist! Absolutely recommend!

Nancy Kieffer New patient….Visit for a broken crown. Visit was just an assessment of the situation. Will return for the actual work, but everyone was very friendly and professional. F/u visit for actual work today! Staff very friendly and the work was done really efficiently with new technology. It was a great experience.

Margo Pasternak ProSmile is the absolute best around! I love coming here and they always take such great care of my teeth and of me! I feel comfortable and at home every time I go! I highly recommend it!

Finnick Santiago My entire experience was so smooth and easy, I am so impressed with all! Definitely signed up for the Dental Savings Plan and will be returning soon to see them all.

Colleen McCarthy Dr. Grasso is awesome! He spent QUITE a bit of time with me going over my x-rays and discussing options, as well as pros and cons of each option. He recognizes and respects both my personality and my opinion/thoughts. He is thorough and kind, as well as seems to know the best specialists in the area. I intend on making him my primary dentist even though I’m coming from a couple of hours away- he is worth the trip!

Chloe Miller Love Dr. Grasso’s office! The entire staff is always lovely and very skilled at what they do. My one and only dentist for life!

Fred Stoddard Dr. Grasso and his staff were thorough, compassionate and friendly. I would not hesitate to recommend him to my friends and family members. A pleasant experience.

Lona Wood By far the best. I neglected my oral hygiene for a long time. I have never felt so comfortable at a dentist office. The hygienist i think her name is Leah or close. She is great. She inspired me to take better care of my teeth

Mary Duncan Dr. Fallon was so friendly, funny, and gentle. His assistant and the rest of the office staff were also a pleasure to talk to/work with. Can’t say enough good things about this practice.

Gini Gozzi Just as I got there 10 minutes early and sat down, they called me in. I had to have a tooth with a small chip filled. Dr. Salamino said I didnt need novacain as it was a root canal tooth with no nerve. He drilled a little and put the filling in. I didnt feel a thing! I was in by 10:00 am and out by 10:10 am. It was amazing, fast & painless! Thank you Dr. Salamino Also, the staff at the front desk and the assistant were wonderful and friendly!! I highly recommend the practice!
