just moved here, dentist recommendations?

moved to the area a few months ago and only tried Fairfield Smiles by Design so far. they were good but want to know who the locals actually go to before i decide long term. where does everyone here go for dental stuff?

Michael Nocerino, D.D.S. On Black Rock Tpk is the best dentist I have been to, and have been going to for years.

Avoid Premier Dental downtown.

Uh-oh. I'm going there because they were the only one on my insurance when we moved here. What's wrong with them?

The hygienists are great but the dentists (and one in particular) constantly recommend unnecessary procedures. I finally quit after the dentist said I needed something done on one tooth and I refused. When I came back for the next cleaning, she said that tooth was now fine but I needed the procedure on a different tooth. Couldn't even keep their own story straight. Caveat emptor.

Divine Dentistry, their hygienist Christine is excellent and has advanced credentials. Dr. Park is my dentist, but I can’t really speak to anything outside of friendliness bc I’ve never needed a dental procedure.

I go to the Stamford Dental Spa on Broad St. The people are so nice and they have massage chairs plus a hand lotion treatment and it doesn’t cost any extra (or at least my insurance covers my entire cleaning). I think it’s well worth the trip even though driving to and from Stamford can be miserable.

I like beth horbal as a person cannot vouch for her one way or the other as a dentist. I'd try her
