When arriving you first experience their wonderful and helpful front end. They are knowledgeable about all aspects of insurance and dental procedures.

It is truly a pleasurable experience.'

'For a dentists office to get a 5 from me, they have to be good. Past experiences at other places have not been good so going to the dentist for me is extremely anxiety causing. I have to say going to Family Dentistry of NJ is different. When you first call, you get to speak with Dominique. Its so nice to call a place and have a person who is helpful and friendly on the other end of the phone. She takes the extra time to answer my questions and help me. Next person to see is Barbara who is the hygienist. She does an incredible job cleaning my teeth. She goes above and beyond. And last is Dr. Aiuto who is thorough and takes the time to talk with you. Would definitely recommend them.'

'The office staff is just so nice and welcoming. I was welcomed when I came in and then saw the hygienist, Barbara, who was gentle and kind. The dentist, Dr. Frank Aiuto, explained why my tooth was hurting. He actually spent time with me and treated me like a real person, not just the patient. It was a really great experience and I would definitely send my family and friends too.'
