Nathaniel Sasson, DDS

Dr. Sasson is an amazing dentist who truly cares about his patients. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

Competent with decades of experience, explains what he is doing and why, and displays blown up images of your teeth so you can see for yourself and understand why he is doing whatever he is doing. Honest and accepts lots of insurance plans.
Makes me feel bad that I do not floss, but he’s right and I hope to reform for my own good! Nice man.

I called today on behalf of my fiancé who is in a great deal of pain. His face is swollen it hurt to the touch all signs pointed to an abscess. I called the Park Slope location and the women who answered already had her attitude on. After a brief hold I explained to her that he believed he had an abscess if the doctor had anything today. She said no He didn’t, I think it’s a emergency he can’t squeeze him in somewhere. «No, the doctor doesn’t have anything today» She said again. I’ve never worked at a dentist office but my best friend did for many years. If someone called the office and thought they may have an abscess they squeezed them in. I don’t know if this person just didn’t care, doesn’t know, or if the doctor tells the staff no exceptions. But an abscess is not something to take lightly. So thanks for nothing.
**** This happened Last year in November. Since then we have found an amazing dentist.

This is an update on my stellar review from 2010. Post Hurricane Sandy the doctor’s «other» practice in the Brighton beach/​Coney Island area was closed. Unfortunate for those patients on that side of Brooklyn but a definite plus for Park Slopers. Dr. Sass is putting all his time in on 9^th Street

I hadn’t been to the dentist in approximately 2 years, and was pretty nervous. After meeting Dr. Sasson, I felt comfortable. Dr. Sasson explains what he’s doing as he’s doing it, which I really liked. He also took the time to explain my X-​rays to me. As far as dental experiences go, this one was really good, and I will continue to use him in the future. He also had a good sense of humor, which is always a plus when you are feeling nervous. Highly recommend!

I’ve gone to many dentists in my life, and Dr. Sasson is one of the best. He’s a nice guy, down to earth, and he explains exactly what’s going on and what I should expect with my teeth. All around great experience.

I had a 10:00 appointment for this dentist last week. At 10:15 I asked the receptionist if he was running late. She said she would check. I had to ask her again and her response was (in a very rude tone) that things don’t always run on time. At 10:35 I mentioned to another woman behind the desk that perhaps I should reschedule. Her response was that I would have been next, but I could leave if I wanted to. So, I left. If someone would have just approached me and told me the dentist was running late and apologized, I would have waited. However, being rude to the customer is not the answer! If I showed up 35 minutes late and said I don’t always run on time, I am quite sure they would not have found that acceptable. In a city with this many options, I’m sure I can find a dentist who appreciates my business and has decent employees who are friendly.

Amazing dentist, great staff, great all around. My last visit was at the park slope location by appointment only and went smooth and very quick.
BUT… A few weeks ago on a monday, (my day off) my tooth was killing me so I gave it a shot and drove down to the mermaid ave clinic. Within 20 minutes I was in the dentist chair and had Dr. Sasson looking at me! He is a great guy, jokes around while performing his tasks and makes you feel very comfortable. He is very honest. He seems to be the most sincere dentist I have ever seen, as if he really really wants to get to the underlying issues you are having and will take the time to explain in detail what is going on and how to stop and/​or prevent it from happening again.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

And his partner, Dr. Lum, is also terrific. My adult children also see them and when my son needed an oral surgeon, the referral he got was excellent. Be sure to ask Dr. Sasson about why Conduit Ave. is called Conduit Ave.

Dr. Sasson is the coolest dentist I have ever met! I absolutely dread going to the dentist but I left smiling after my first visit with Dr. Sasson. I was totally nervous but he was so nice and informative my nerves were quickly put at ease. He went through my xrays with me in a way that I could understand which none of my past dentists have ever done. I’ve always been bad at keeping up with flossing but now I actually floss regularly just to make him proud. On my return visit I was glad to hear my gums had already improved. His prices are also very reasonable and I have recommended him to everyone I know! My mom even wants to drive up from Philly to see him because of how pleased I’ve been. I will never dread a visit to the dentist again. If you hate going to the dentist give Dr. Sasson a try. He made me a believer!

It had been 5 years since my last dental appointment, and despite reasonable oral hygiene I was convinced my teeth were full of cavities. My anxiety over losing my teeth finally overpowered my dread of being ritually dressed down by the dentist for not coming in sooner.
I sent to see Dr. Sasson despite having no dental insurance. 45 minutes and 60 bucks later, I came out with a clean bill of mouth health – but the guy was so nice I would’ve been happy to get cavities filled there, had I needed them. He took the time to explain what was going on, and the office, while small, had modern equipment and friendly staff. He didn’t make me feel bad for having ditched the dentist for so long, instead just treating me like an adult.
He’ll definitely have my business again.

It took me eight years to muster the courage to so see a dentist. Dr. Sasson had me comfortable immediately and the cost for X-​rays and a cleaning was at least $ 30 less than anyone else I called.

I’m as happy as anyone could really ever be with their dentist. He’s patient, his work is great, his prices are fair. I don’t have anything clever to say, except that I totally recommend Dr. Sasson highly.

I am absolutely terrified of dental work, since it requires much more Novocaine to numb my teeth than is usual… and previous dentists were not able to provide pain relief or deal with my dental problems. Dr. Sasson is caring, informative, gentle, and extremely knowledgeable and thorough, and has made it EASY for me to attend to my teeth after years of neglect. He is very creative and is able to solve problems relating to my neglect such as making sure a bridge is sturdy even if my supporting teeth are not etc. My husband and 19 year old son also go to him and feel the same way, and Dr. Lum was also wonderful when my son saw him in an emergency. Almost no wait, great staff, immaculate office with all the latest equipment and Dr. Sasson was available in a terrible emergency for me two years ago when I fell and broke two teeth that ended up in my lower lip. We will never go to anyone else…5 stars!

I’ve been going to Dr. Sasson for 5 years and I totally agree with Jodi V. Dr. Sasson is the first dentist I’ve ever had who actually explains what he’s doing to my teeth. He’s an awesome neighborhood guy and he takes the time to actually remember his patients. I’ve recommended him to pretty much every one of my friends living in Park Slope. He’s the kind of dentist that makes me want to floss so I don’t disappoint him.

Dr. Sasson is very good and very nice. He always tells me exactly what he’s doing and even shows me my x-​rays and explains them to me.
