Top Dental schools in New York, United States

Terrible experience repeatedly. Took my mother there for dentures. First appointment began after waiting to register in the lobby for 45 minute. Student told her she needed a specialist to come back another day, he wasnt able to help her. Second appointment one month later, was just a consultation and they would not be doing anything. Please come back in August as the students will be out! This was April. I will be making a complaint with NYU and the NY Education Dept.

Simona provided exceptional professionalism and kindness during my visit. As a student of dentistry, her expertise shone through in her meticulous attention to detail and thorough explanations. Her warm demeanor instantly put me at ease, making the experience not only informative but also comfortable. I highly recommend Simona to anyone seeking dental care. She truly embodies excellence in her field

This place is amazing and very underrated. I’m glad such a place is available to the general public with an affordable costs (relative to the private clinics).

The price is transparent and very reasonable, which I have to say many private clinics don’t have. You’ll be treated by student doctors under professors’ (I think, they seem to be seasoned professionals) supervision. Very friendly, patient, with good skills. My procedures and price were always explained to me beforehand. In terms of skills, I’ve been going there for ~1.5 year now, with regular checkups, cleaning, filling, one operation done, all great experience.

The only downside is, there are always quite a lot of people in the building and you’ll need to make appointment quite ahead. For new patient registration and check up, I had to wait before it was my turn. Every time after the first time, it’s all good as long as I have an appointment.

Great and affordable care. I was glad to experience the attention to detail they provided as I have had bad experiences with Dentists, trying to over charge and suggest unnecessary procedures.

Thankfully I sought out the NYU College of Dentistry, the residing supervising professor immediately caught the nature of a tooth repair I had and how it would be more harmful to try and replace it with an implant.

This immediately won me over and was also a testament to the quality of students NYU has, as she was careful to ask more than one professor for their input to make sure I wasn't put through an unneeded treatment plan.

I’m only giving it 2 stars because the some of the student dentists are nice and deserve to be recognized.The business side of NYU is terrible. I was not able to get anyone on the phone. They lied to me and said my insurance denied my claim but it turns out they didn’t put one in. I paid out of pocket for no reason.The time they give you for an appointment is not accurate. You will be waiting there 30-40 minutes after the appointment time. I already had scans of an x-ray, but they wanted to take more scans.Then they schedule me an appointment to have my tooth removed. They knew how it looked like since they had the x-rays. I get to the clinic waited past my time for them to cancel my appointment. They cancel my appointment twice. I had to wait five months for another appointment and to tell me that they the insurance denied to cover the X-ray which wasn’t true.NYU never put in a claim.

Special thanks to Dr. Mathew who took great care of my son. He was very thorough in his job and was excellent in attending to my son. My son cooperated with him without any stress or behavior issues because Mr. Mathew was so kind and gentle. My son now follows his instructions in brushing his teeth and flossing. I love to recommend NYU College of Dentistry to families who have their loved ones with I/DD.

Dr Anthony Allison is an amazing person and very excellent doctor. He is always responsive and helpful with any questions or concerns regarding your health care and needs even on the weekends. I’m so happy to have him as a doctor. He completed my crown on just two visits. I highly recommend him and NYU College of Dentistry for all your dental issues. 😊😊😊

After 2 years of cleaning, X-rays, 180, treatment, implant, crown across multiple departments and really trying my hardest to work with the staff, this place is TERRIBLE. The billing and admin is ran by incompetent people locked behind a screen. Ground floor checking / billing, 2S admin or 5th admin or office staff can only tell you what you owe but never what you are being charged for nor the details nor the treatment plans associated to it. The online portal has no information. I have signed so many “updated” treatment plans even while on the dentist chair and with treatment in progress. Bills are always very uncertain. I came in for one specific condition: one implant. It never changed but the bill and the treatment kept on changing. At the end this didn’t cost less than a regular dentist despite what is advertised.

When a complaint arises, they advise to contact the patient advocacy. The pamphlet mentioned that one can visit their office but no one is ever there. If you try calling, it will give you a voice mail and no luck to leave a voice mail. When sending a form via the contact form for each floor or service, just don’t expect an answer and if you are lucky they may call you back but if you miss the call, then good luck trying to contact them again.

Helful, fast n more efficient than before. Just need to shorten treatment days. Too many ays to do cavities plus cleaning
ect. . To get my night guard it took for wr to make n still don't have then. thanks

My review is for 8th fl dental clinic. This is a teaching facility and everything is chaotic as far as the follow up on your dental care, students have been great. The doctors teaching there have terrible way of following up on what their students are doing. I have gone thru two students , unresolved issues.
At this point i paid in full for work that was done but since 6/26/23 they made impressions of my mouth kept my prosthetics, dental technician came to my checkup took upper prostethic and said he would work on this himself to make it right. I have NOT HEARD from anyone sice june . I have even called and left more than 3 calls to patient advocate. It is now September and still nothing. Everyone here drops the ball and then kicks it to a corner and forgets about your issues.
Save yourself the headaches, go somewhere else. This story goes for two years hoping to fix my dental issues after covid shut everything down. MASSIVE MISTAKE, So story is i paid in full and have NO partial dentures.

I just want to say how amazed I am with the way you guys teach your students. My dentist DR Christina Kassar who graduated from NYC Dental, is so professional. She did my fillings for tooth #8 #9 and this is the BEST WORK I HAVE EVER GOTTEN. The experience with her was just so genuine and I couldn’t even be more thankful. She is such an underrated dentist. I love her & her work !

THE WORST. save your time and get a referral somewhere else. I’ve tried to get an appointment for a year now and apparently they are always busy. I was told about 6 months ago i was on the waitlist. Never heard from them again. Called them back to see what my status was and they told me I had missed my appointment. Never received a call or an email about this so called “appointment”.

The five stars are only for the students and attending I was a patient for 5 years I admit that the Covid epidemic lengthened my treatment, but the one thing that could’ve been better was the office staff as I’ve gotten to meet them and realize they aren’t efficient at all, and most of their jobs could be turned into a self check in computer the students do more work to interact with their patients in scheduling appointments and most of the time office workers take 20 minutes just to check you in I believe the quality of this clinic would be much higher with different people, or without the job entirely.

I’d like to give props, though to the clinic staff that helped clean and bring new dentist supplies out for the students it’s obvious that the community would not be as strong without them being there. And the office would not be able to run without them.

I was always skeptical about dentists. Especially for my children. At NYU College of Dentistry, I met one of the most amazing dentists ever. Dr. Mark is an amazing dentist, who has a great sense of humor, articulates information well, very honest and best of all he is amazing with children. As for the facility, very clean, from front desk to back of house, the staff was very helpful. I would recommend this dental office. Thank you All!

I used to see Dr her name Gloria and then all of a sudden she told me she’s leaving and another student is going to call me back to schedule appointment with me nobody call me. I tried to call back several times they tell me the same thing ' somebody’s gonna call you back and I swear this is since two years I’m trying bc I have a lot of problems in my teeth. If I can give them less than one star, I give them. Even the people answer the phone they vary mean ‘ today I called someone she told me the same thing and she doesn’t wanna even answer my question and she hangs the phone when I was still talking to her ‘ this is the worst Dentist and the woman answer the phone too

The reception staff in 5W are very kind and helpful. Always willing to help, I am very grateful to Maritza for going above and beyond for patients such as myself. Since communication in general with the department can prove to be challenging, her help and that of her collegues can prove to be invaluable to the patients there. Thank you all at the front desk for all you do.🙏

This is the best dental clinic in the city, especially that takes my specific insurance. Once you're in their system it's a lot easier to get an appointment than elsewhere, even when they're busy. The best thing is that the student doctors are able to immediately verify if procedures would be covered by your insurance, so there are never any surprises. I've had 3 of my widom teeth removed here, one which was impacted, and it was as easy and pain-free as possible. Everyone here is very friendly and takes their life and work very seriously.

I made an appointment as i had heard great things about NYU. Showed up and eventually had full scan of my teeth as I had a serious issue with missing teeth and bad previous dental work done. My Doctor, a student named Nicole seemed to be very helpful but in the end she was a zero from 1-10. She said she was graduating in 2 months and introduced me to the student who would be handling my case after that. She even gave me her cell number if I needed her. In the end I was given a generic brush off and told that they couldn’t help me with anything that I needed and they were pretty vague as to why. I understood that I had alot of issues but I just wanted some guidance. I left a fee voicemails for Dr.Nicole but she never responded back. I also had asked for my scans and pics of my mouth so I could use them at another dentist but again no response. I also called the main number and left my info for someone to follow up with me because I had an issue but the school didn’t respond either. Not living up to my expectations at all.

Update as of 8/22/2023. Nobody at the school has contacted me regarding my issue or my review. Just shows the level of concern. Leaving someone who really needed help without any options. DO NOT GO TO NYU UNLESS YOU HAVE NO OTHER CHOICE AND IF YOU HAVE NO OTHER CHOICE GOOD LUCK.

I’ve been seen here three times and it’s terrible. First, you can’t even get through the phone to schedule an appointment without waiting 30-45 mins, then when you get there the place is incredibly disorganized and the people processing your insurance have no idea what they’re doing. Once you finally see a provider, the students operate under very little supervision and most have very poor bedside manner. The doctors in charge are spread too thin and it feels like they want to get you out of there faster without actually fixing the problem. I was seen today for a dental emergency where I have consistent full pain with occasional shooting pain on my top right side. The doctor’s decided that my tooth was “sensitive to cold” when I told them it wasn’t and they missed the root of the issue. The doctor got argumentative when I advocated for myself and asked what they were going to do to stop the pain. After that, the doctor fiddled around in my mouth so roughly that I left in more pain than I went in with, with no diagnosis or understanding of what is going on. I refuse to go back, and have made an appointment with a different office. If you’re still reading, I highly recommend you visit any other doctor’s office in New York.

The doctor was great. The facility was great and so was the supervising doctor. My only dissatisfaction was that my visit was literally 10 minutes and I paid $124 for it. In 10 minutes the doctor was able to tell me I needed braces and what type. I’m having a hard time with $124 for a10 minute visit. I’m aware that if I had gone to a private dentist the cost would have been even higher, still the amount seems excessive.

This is the worst Dental University I've ever been to, they had me suffering for over 6 months, placed me on a waiting list, just to call me in after 4 months and then turn me away!!!
The most uncaring, inexperienced people in the world of medicine, if you're in PAIN, (((WARNING)))***DO NOT COME HERE***(((WARNING)))!!! And who cares if they notify their team, like are they going to change, are they going to really help people or become competent overnight....really????

Just look at the horrible reviews. Then find another dentist. The few positive reviews are obviously fake. It's not even cheap. A single implant is over 2K. But it hardly matters because Columbia Dental is totally dysfunctional. Furthermore, if you find a dentist who was trained by this school find someone educated at another dental College. I would never, ever trust a graduate from this absurdly incompetent program.

I appreciate the service being offered. All of the staff are professional. All of the students are well trained pre-professionals. All of the Licensed Dentists are experienced and able to remain at the height of their knowledge due to the residency setting, making every type of dental work possible being done 365 days per year; which reproves the professionalism of the students, staff, instructors, dentists and "client support" mechanisms. Thank you NYU. Though my treatment has yet to begin, I am sure to obtain the best care solely from my initial visit. No matter what, NYC is the best City in the U.S. due to volume of services provided and clientele serviced, making our City and its progressive residents some of the best in the world.

I was referred to NYU dentistry because other dentists would not take me as a patient due to my medical condition. I have had a great experience with the attending dentist. The facility is nice and clean. The staff is pleasant and attentive too.

they never pick up the phone!

I’m giving this place 3 stars because they were unable to help my son and referred him to a place that did not accept his insurance.
I must give Kudos to Nilsa at the front desk who showed care and compassion. She worked hard to help my son obtain his records so he could seek medical attention elsewhere. Thank you for responding to the sense of urgency.

I was at the center with an infection and lots of pain. I was told I would not be treated because the had to many patients. Go back the day and maybe I can be treated. why have an emergency if someone with an infection and lots of pain can"t have treatment? I stated making call and finally found a dentist that took care of me.

Not kind at all. They made me nervous
