This office is AMAZING, I went to two other dentists before finally trusting The Dental Center in Bloomfield, NJ ... Please read my entire Review, my story of my dental work and how wonderful my experience was below. Upon first arrival at "The Dental Center" in Bloomfield, NJ I was immediately greeted by a kind and knowledgeable receptionist who gave her undivided attention and was most helpful. I explained what I was there for and was introduced into the dental room where an assistant, also extremely personable and knowledgeable told me about what I was there to get done (Cleaning/X-Rays and Exam). When Dr. Carmine Corigliano, my Dentist, came into the room... the laughing began... and it wasnt because of any laughing gas. After my gentle cleaning, thorough X-Rays, and Exam, Dr. C explained I would need a root canal on one of my teeth. I was rather nervous about this because I had never had a major procedure like it before, but he took the ample time to explain everything and reassured me that he would take care of everything. The office has all of the equipment to create the post and full permanent crown there while you wait so there is no long multi-week period where you must wait for a crown to be made in a lab etc... they do everything there at the Dental Center so you can get a Root Canal, Post/Crown done in two visits! I was thrilled about that notion! To make a long story short, the availability was extremely great at the Dental Center, they have many appointments and work with your schedule so you can get the work done on your teeth when you want and as quickly as you want it done. So I got my Root Canal done, and when I say I was nervous, I was extremely nervous going in. But Dr. C had someone stay with me the entire procedure and they took the time and effort to keep me calm and happy. The root canal was Painless. Even the anesthetic, the numbing needle, was very gentle. In between getting my crown, I got two fillings done as well, they were deep and difficult fillings but they were expertly done and they look and feel great. Dr. C made sure that I was happy with everything and made sure they not only felt good but looked good as well. Dr. C made sure when I returned today for my Crown, that my fillings didnt bother me. He made sure to check with me on everything and his thoroughness is extremely important to me! So, to sum up, I am very happy with the Dental Center and Ill be going back soon for a couple more fillings, The entire staff is friendly and helpful, from the Billing Manager to each Assistant and hygienist, to the Dentists/ Doctors themselves, theyre all kind, caring, and helpful. I give their office my highest recommendation. If youre looking for a great dentist and great team of individuals working towards your dental health, look no further. The Dental Center of Bloomfield, NJ is for you!

I came in for my root canal appointment and the doctor I set my appointment with wasnt even in the office so they told me another doctor would be doing my procedure. When the doctor came in he told me what he would be doing and said he was only going to do the root canal and not put in the post which was not ok with me. When I told him this he complained about the amount of time it would take which does not make sense at all. I told them fine then we will need to reschedule the appointment for when you have TIME to complete a full root canal. When I reached the front desk the receptionist then tells me if I want to reschedule I would have to prepay because I would be taking up too much of the doctors TIME. I then explained to her that I have been a client here for some time and Ive always paid my balance in full following my completed services and never had to prepay for a procedure nor do I owe their office any amount of money. I stated that I am not paying for a service in advance which has not been completed. She then tells me with a nasty attitude "well you can just reschedule your appointment when youre ready to prepay." I left this office very upset and unfortunately dont think that I will be returning after experiencing this level of service. This office is also very highly priced and for the amount of money that I pay to have procedures done here I do not expect to be treated in such a manner. Customers should be notified when their doctor is not going to be available for their appointments. Customers should not be told that a procedure can only be halfway completed because of the amount of TIME it takes and desk staff should be trained on proper customer service etiquette for paying clients. I WOULD NOT recommend this office to anyone.

Basically turning nightmares into new smiles is what goes on in this place ! Chipped my tooth around 1pm... I was able to make an emergency appointment over the phone. Insurance info confirmed ASAP I do have to applaud the lovely ladies of reception especially Gladys who squeezed me in even as a new patient! This made me so happy because many other offices I called prior to this one, turned me away simply because I was not a "patient of record" (even with an emergency chipped tooth).. I arrived at 3pm, paperwork including wait time AND my procedure had me out in time for happy hour with an even better smile than The one I had lol !! The best part of my experience had to be DR. Carmine saving my tooth and Jennie by his side to assist. Safe to say five stars is an understatement and todays service has earned this office a new patient, cant thank them enough !! See yall in April !

The staff leaves much to be desired although front desk staff is great. They are very nice UNTIL you ask for pricing. Im often quoted one price then after services receive a huge bill. They can request a price from your insurance but you literally have to fight tooth and nail to get them to do it. The dental assistant seems incredibly annoyed.They should be retrained on customer service is there no manager ensuring this? The doctors are not going to tell on their staff although they noticed her being short tempered. Going to the dentist can be stressful some compassion would go a long way. You come in for your next appointment and they "forgot" nor their is no notes on you ever requesting your insurance estimate. So get the service perform the service and receive a huge bill in the mail, that you may not be prepared for.

I just moved to the area and found this dental office online. So far my experience with this dental office has been phenomenal! Seriously, they have the friendliest and most attentive staff. My dentist there has been Dr. Carmine Corigliano and I have nothing but great things to say about him. I had fillings done and the procedure was quick and painless. I agree with the other reviews, they really seem to genuinely care about their patients! All I can say is that Im so glad I google searched "dentist near me" and found The Dental Center.

My first appt at the Center was easy and professionally completed. The staff is and was hospitable, friendly and respectable. The Doctor was introduced to me and that also was a pleasant intro. (he is a good looking man). I highly recommend this dental center. The location is easy to get to and there is onsite parking. If you need professional care from the beginning to end of your treatments, this is the place to go.
