Consistently excellent experience throughout the practice. I cannot emphasize enough the importance today of having a positive professional experience throughout the practice. This is not what I am experiencing in other offices where I get glasses or had dentistry. From booking an appointment, checking in, cleaning, having work done, billing, and any other ways you interact, you will be glad this is your dentist. Gentle, compassionate, and conservative. A+++

Sweet Staff and Professional! I had a major issue going on with my gum/tooth and needed someone ASAP. Luckily they were taking new patients and had an opening the same day. I have huge fear of dentist so my anxiety was thru the roof, started crying and everything. Tina one of the assistants was kind, compassionate , and super understanding and calmed me down. Then Dr.Papa came in and blew me away with her kindness and professionalism. I ADORE her and Tina and they took their time with me and also was patient. They did AMAZING work and I am beyond happy. Can't wait to see them again, definitely restored my faith in dentists. Thank you!!!

Dr. Papa has been my dentist for 30+ years, and now he is my 6 year old daughter's dentist - and she LOVES going to see him! She actually asks me to "not make her wait 6 more months for her next appointment."

I had a very good experience right from the moment walking into a friendly & welcoming staff. My previous dentist retired after 40 years going to him & I was nervous about my appointment since I broke a tooth & didn't know what to expect. Dr David Papa & his assistant were wonderful & put me at right at ease . He immediately fixed my tooth without any discomfort what so ever . I then had a fantastic hygienist who also was friendly gentle , thorough & explained what she was doing. She advised me what I could do to help with problem areas until my 6 month follow up . I would highly recommend this office . Thank you for a great experience .

Let me tell you about the best dentist in America. Doctor Papa is the man, and he and his staff are the best I've experienced. I ground my front four top teeth down to nothing and had been putting getting it fixed off due to stigma and confidence issues. So one day I called (my parents are lifelong clients of his predecessor Dr. DiSiena) and explained my situation to the receptionist. Half hour later, Dr. Papa called to consult with me and made me feel sooooooo much better about my situation. Nearly three months later, I have beautiful new pearly whites on my top teeth, and was ecstatic about every part of it. No stigma, so weird looks, just patient centered care. Mary, a hygienist, was instrumental in this process. She's so personable, and talked with me when Papa was drilling, poking and prodding, and it distracted me enough to get through a pretty tough process very easily. Highly recommended. They don't hound you for payment, they really work with you and your insurance to get the best deals, etc. If you need a new dentist, call them. You won't be disappointed!!!
