Let me start off by saying the moment i walked into the office, the sweetest woman named Fran greeted me and knew who i was immediately (initial visit as well). Shows that are on top of their appointments and aware of the patients walking into their office. The office is so comfortable, clean, and the atmosphere feels cozy. When i was brought into the consult room, Keisha asked me all the appropriate questions that were vital to my visit. She was super nice and once again made me feel comfortable. Dr. Ekstein is literally the nicest doctor I have ever encountered in my life. I am terrified of the dentist but he was so friendly and funny! When I explained my fears and everything, he literally said "I get it, you were traumatized." When he did a quick evaluation he explained every single thing in detail what had to be done and how. Once we were complete, I went back to the front desk where I was scheduled another appointment to follow up with more details and insurance information which was already started by the other nice woman (I do not know her name, sorry). If you are looking for a new dentist, I highly recommend Dr. Ekstein!!!! I am truly happy with my initial visit.

This Dentistry is really one you should consider. The dental hygienist named Jesse went above and beyond to cater to all of my questions. She gave me numerous options that included everything from normal upkeep of my teeth all the way to inquiries about Invisalign and the entire process. She took her time when completing my x-rays, cleaning, and my enamel density test. The front desk staff was also polite and very helpful. They greeted me when I arrived and also sent me a link where I could complete my initial paperwork before arriving for my appointment, which was extremely convenient and a time saver. Overall I can honestly say that this has been the best dentist that I have ever visited. I would highly recommend this location to anyone who is looking for a new dentist or just in the market to replace a current one that they are not happy with, trust me you will not regret it.

I went to this office as an emergency after not having gone to the dentist since 2017, and I genuinely will not go anywhere else. Every human being in the office was friendly and warm right off the opening of the door. The office environment was relaxing and positive. Simply observing the staff working together, and being pleasant and kind to one another was refreshing. I had a wonderful first impression from everyone in the office, including the doctor who examined me yesterday. Today, I had my first root canal with their endodontist and they truly could not have made it an easier experience. Both the doctor and the dental assistant were so kind, supportive, and down to earth. They really did a phenomenal job of being attentive to me and my comfortability while also letting me know exactly what they were doing along the way. They worked very well together, educated me about the procedures they were performing, and even in the way they communicated with one another, I was able to understand that these are two genuinely good human beings and they enjoy their field of work a lot as well as being good to their patients. It's one thing to be a knowledgeable and skilled doctor, but to be a good person on top of that, is everything a patient needs. Health care in general, whether it be medical or dental, is always expensive, that's the world we live in. But at this office, they had options for me. They laid everything out and made sure that I was aware of every detail. I medical code and bill for a living, and I have the background knowledge of how prices are assigned. Given that, I believe their prices were fair and the options for payment plan, etc., were given clearly and without any pressure. I don't leave reviews often, unless a practice or business has truly made an impression on me. I'm so happy that I found this office, they made this experience immensely easier and I will now continue to get all of my dental concerns resolved with their help. So, thank you to every single person that I met and spoke to at Smile Design Specialist. It's places like this, and people like this, who truly make a difference.

Great experience. Jessie the hygienists is the best. She took her time explained everything in detail listened to my concerns. Truly a professional. I can honestly say the best cleaning I had my entire life. Everyone in the office is welcoming and pleasant. Very clean, new equipment. The services and friendliness of the staff is superb. Ad someone who suffers from extreme anxiety from dentist. I'm actually looking forward to my next visit.

BEST DENTIST OFFICE!!!! I have had Medicaid for about a year and every time I got dentist work done through my insurance my teeth still never fully felt clean. I tried multiple places and the offices were always over crowded and inattentive. The appointments were rushed UNTIL i decided to contact Smile Design Specialist. I went to them when I had private insurance and they were always so attentive- they thoroughly explained every single thing as well as took their time to clean my teeth and give me a full exam- I waited little to no time for my appointment and they didn’t rush through!!!! It wasn’t a quick 10 minute cleanup and off to the next patient like the dentist I was seeing through Medicaid. Smile Design does not accept Medicaid so I paid out of pocket utilizing the special offers they give to Self-Pay patients and it was WORTH EVERY SINGLE PENNY. I will continue to pay out of pocket just because the type of service provided was unmatched- some things you really get what you pay for. I highly recommend this office. Amazing staff who truly cares

Terrible place to go for dentistry. Dr. Ekstien doesn't seem like he knows what he's doing. He would always ask me what is supposed to happen when that should be his job. The first tooth I got made for me was very yellow and clearly looked terrible and instead of being a doctor and doing his job he asked me if it looked OK. I was shocked he didn't say himself that it looked terrible and didn't match. I said what? No, that looks horrible. It took us several attempts to get the color right. I've never dealt with a dentist asking me what to do. I just wish I knew how terrible of a job he would do before I got my crown put in. He used a metal abutment instead of gold and now my tooth looks several shades darker than the rest of my teeth and the shape of tooth used doesn't match any of my other teeth. Paid way too much money for such bad job done. I highly recommend you keep looking for a different dentist.

It was my first time at the office and first impressions mean a lot to me. The office staff is very friendly and welcoming. They make you feel at home. They take their time and they explain everything thoroughly.

Prompt and caring Dentistry, Thank You Dr Ana & Dawood ✅ I highly recommend this team for everyone and their families in North Jersey
