Honestly always a great experience when stepping in admire dental. Truthfully, the most professional dental office I have been to in Ct. They actually listen unlike other dental offices, they take there time, and are very careful and proficient with every procedure done. They give genuine advice on how to keep your teeth shinning and healthy. They have an amazing hygienist Iliana who is jus awesome! I appreciate how gentle she was durning my cleaning, even with my nerve exposed. They just have an amazing staff from front to back office wish I can give them 100/100 stars!

I've had previous cleaning from Dr.Panks and Shanty (hygienist) , they did their best possible to clean under my braces. I'm grateful for the services that I received and love the new hygienist (illana) ,she's amazing and takes her time with each cleaning of a patient. Love all the assistants and the chill environment.

Dr. Panks and his staff came through for us in an emergency when our regular dentist was on vacation. My husband broke a tooth and we called a ton of dentists and no one had any open appointments for weeks. Admire Dental took him in as his last appointment for the day and gave us a referral to an oral surgeon. Again we could not find anyone - places were trying to book him months out. We called Dr Panks back and luckily he was able to extract the tooth right at Admire Dental. He even did a follow up appointment to make sure things were healing correctly. He and his staff were kind and very professional. He even explained the implant procedure, which Admire Dental also does, to my husband. We are very impressed with whole experience! Thank you Admire Dental!

I have many issues with my teeth that need alot of work. Was told about my treatment plan and they can help but I am unsure now. Waiting for my crown so partial material applied over my filling which some of material came off couple days later. Reached out over weekends and was given Dr. Panks personal number but never got back to me at all. Sensitivity and alot of pain. Finally seen him told me material came off due to my grinding so he put more temporary material and still having pain and sensitivity because material came off again. I was very excited to get help with my teeth remaining but do not feel same as before. Still going through pain and when reached out to get something for pain was told Dr. Panks does not want to get in trouble with my insurance. So now I wait to be seen which won't be until 5 days in pain. I'm not sure if he wants to help me anymore.

This office used to be the best I loved them but after the covid outbreak they really dropped the ball. The office staff are incompetent. I was on my third time trying to make an appointment before being told they logged my appointment wrong. The first time they told me I didn't have an appointment and then I got a call that I missed my appointment. The second time they completely lost the appointment and was told the office manger would give me a call never got one. the third time today they told me they entered me in their old system and switched me to today without telling me.It's a shame because the dentist was awesome but I can't keep dealing with non sense.

I am the cosigner of Dr Panks Dhingra's student loan and he doesn't even bother talking to me now. I helped him when he was in need 12 yrs ago and now when I asked him to refinance, he's gone in hiding and does not communicate with me. Dr Panks is a fraudster & I want all his patients to know this !!

First time visiting for a cleaning & x-rays. Hygienist did not do very complete job with cleaning. No toothpaste, no polishing, no flossing, no fluoride rinse. Never been to a dentist before where after I left I needed to go brush my teeth at home. Waste of a cleaning allotment through insurance. Dentist interpreted x-rays well.
