Pope Dental was great! So professional, and my appointment was quick and easy to set up. Their website is also very impressive. I was able to fill out all of my first-time paperwork ahead of time. So the office visit went just that much more smoothly.

I've been a patient of Pope Dental since the late Eighties and been very pleased with their service! Here's a example why, a short time ago I was flossing my teeth and a crown suddenly came off. I immediately called Pope Dental and they were able to see me within a half hour! Dr Mojica resealed my crown and thankfully, I was in and out in minutes! Thank you Dr Pope, Dr Mojica and entire staff for your great service over all these years! Raymond Cannata

STAY AWAY !!! Patient care and patient time is not a priority at this practice. My appointment was changed 3 times on my last visit due to doctor not being available, and they attempted to change my next appointment again due to doctor not being available. One would think they would honor their commitment, as the patients do, once the appointment is made, but no such luck!

The receptionist is extremely rude. I tried to book an appointment as a new patient and she very rudely insisted I must have a ssn to have insurance and that my insurance would never let me have an account without one . Well I do have insurance and my visa is in process . I decided to look elsewhere . You should take that receptionist off the phone she's awful

I had a very pleasant experience with Dr. Mojica and Julie. No waiting, got right in. Dr. Mojica did a good job of explaining why my previously installed "Onlays" had popped off (from another dentist) and had the prescription for reinstalling and keeping them in place.

I have been a patient of Dr. Pope since 2013. I was starting a new job at MetLife after not finding work for years, and I woke to find my dog ate my dental appliance that I used for a missing front tooth. I called Pope Dental and they were able to put a temporary fix that day allowing me to start my first day of work with out stress! My recent appointment to have my teeth cleaned by David who used an ultrasonic dental hygiene tool. I did not have any pain with my cleaning! Thank you!

It's my first visit here for an intake assessment for a major problem (i.e., implant) that will require a lot of work in the coming months. The staff (Dr. Pope, Serena & Julie) was friendly, engaging & efficient. Front end perceptions: + I especially like their use of technical outreach to complete the battery of patient forms, + their offering of internal insurance options on the spot--a welcomed surprise since I did not come with third-party dental insurance, + they had obtained my dental records from my previous dentist that jump-started my in processing, + they offer a one-shop, comprehensive set of services, + Dr Pope is involved in the local community. Off to a good start. Larry S.

My family and I have been seeing Dr. Scott Pope for most of our dental care over the past 10 years or longer. Using state-of-the-art technology along with his top-notch technical expertise and skills / dexterity, Dr. Pope performs procedures efficiently and with the utmost care and comfort to his patients, not to mention providing superior outcomes for work related to fillings, crown restorations, chipped tooth repair, etc. Based on my family's protracted experience under the practice, I find Pope Dental to be reliable, honest and trustworthy. Pope Dental's staff have also been very professional, accommodating, caring and respectful. During my last visits, the dental hygienist (Amanda) and dental assistants (Serena and Lisa) have all been great. Finally, Dr. Pope's referrals (endodontist, oral surgeon) also have been outstanding, with practices that are in keeping with, or surpassing Pope Dental's proclivity for superior service, quality and excellence.

I love the staff at Pope Dental. I see Dr. Mojica as my dentist and David, as my dental hygienist. They are always gentle, friendly, and take their time to answer any questions or concerns. The front office staff is helpful and friendly as well. The wait time is generally less than 5 minutes too. Overall, I get excited to go to the dentist because I know it's going to be a positive experience.
