I have nothing but amazing words to say about NJ Laser dentistry! Everyone is super freindly and accomidating! As someone who does need extensive dental work done I was left very disheartened by my previous dentist. After finding Laser dentistry I got a consultation for All on four implants with Dr Andrew and he has been absolutely amazing. He answered all my questions and guided me on my options and what my best solutions are. He even gave me his personal number in case I had additional questions and he has always answered when I call. I also had a large infection and few extractions done recently by Andrew to start the process and it was painless. Forever grateful I found this dentist 🙏

The staff and everyone there are so professional, friendly and compassionate, and I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Bilow he has taken such wonderful care of me all through the years as he is doing so right now, I can’t say strongly enough that if you need any type of dental services call New Jersey laser dentistry, Dr. Bilow and he will be more than happy and able to take care of whatever you need.

I have had my fair share of terrible experiences at dentist offices, so when I was referred to NJ Laser Dentistry from a friend, I thought that anything would be better than what I've experienced and if she has had good experiences, then I should be good too. From my first visit, I felt at such ease. Today, I had a procedure that I've been putting off for awhile and I can honestly say that it was the smoothest and pain-free appointment I have ever had. I usually feel all of the things and just try to get through it, but I was completely content feeling absolutely nothing and watching HGTV until the Dr. said "you're done!" I'm finally in good hands and I saw it from check-in to the hygienists to the doctors. If you're nervous to get back in the dentist's chair, don't be. You're in great hands here.
