I have debilitating anxiety with a phobia of choking and have a terrible time trusting anyone. I had a bad experience with a dentist where I received two implants - he was cold and not understanding of my anxiety. Although the work he did was great, the way he treated me made me feel awful. I struggled to see a dentist until my husband suggested Calamia and so far I've been for fillings and recently a crown. Today I had an apt without any anxiety meds for the first time since moving to the USA. Everyone from the receptionist to the assistant to Dr Christine Calamia who has made it a calming experience. I can't thank this practice enough for the kindness and care they've shown me.

Excellent, gentle, professional care for all your dental health and cosmetics needs. From prevention to reconstructive procedures. Dr. Vincent Calamia is a dentist genius who holistically approaches every patient, with great attention to detail and unique requirements and situation of every patient. The best results are delivered while keeping your budget in mind (and in check). Ohh, and the entire team is amazing. Friendly, attentive, very professional and efficient people. + conviently located office.

Calamia Dental is a great resource for fast and efficient dental advice and work. I have been a loyal patient for over 5 years and they are a family owned and run practice focusing on Patient comfort and access with minimal difficulty. Everything from scheduling advanced work root canal to cleaning has been a pleasure.

I was referred by Dr. Yadiera Brown another great doctor by the way. I was greeted by the receptionist who was very bright and cheery. Dr. Calamia was very thorough and gave me several options for my perceived dilemma. I have found a new dentist and will certainly share my experience.
