All 5 stars for Dr. Abante and staff very much deserved. I always receive a reminder through phone for my upcoming App. Very flexible to schedule my app. since I do get out of work late. Dr. Abante seems like he really loves his job and his patients. He guides you through the process which is helpful and makes sure your doing OK during the procedure which makes me feel more at ease. I never liked dentists until I came here. Today I went for 3 fillings which I wasn’t happy because I’m afraid of injections. The Dr. and staff answered all my questions and he numbed real good before injecting I didn’t feel anything at all !! The whole procedure was a breeze. Oh since I suffer of chapped lips the Dr. kept applying vasiline which was a plus for me. Before everything started he made sure I was real comfortable he put a cushion for my legs and Jurrasic Movie. Overall I felt SPOILED. Two thumbs up for this office.

I received service on 10÷13÷15 due to sensitivity to hot, cold and sweets. It was extremely painful and the DR seemed to not explore the idea of a cavity and simply said is was because of my gums that needed attention. I am not a dentist so I do not know enough to argue but then he worked his sales pitch and got me to spend money on filling replacements that did not need to be done. This was purely cosmetic and I am not the type to worry about that type of thing. The receptionist at the front desk was only interested in getting the money and not even getting the correct amount owed as evidence by the bill received 2 months later. When I called to inquire she simply explained that the previous amount was an estimate and that is their normal practice. I then told her to cancel any and all future appointments. First she told me I did not have any appointments but I asked her to look in January and sure enough I was there. She explain«so you won’t be a returning Patient, is that correct» I said yes and she hung up. Wow I guess they don’t need any new patients, which is exact the opposite impression I got from the Dentist himself. I would not recommend this place to anyone unless you are looking to pay for things you don’t need and enjoy a staff of people who don’t care.

Dr Abante is really amazing Doctor, he doesn’t take advantage of you in his cost and is very affordable, I been going to him for over 5 years and he is always so friendly, his wife is super sweet too,. You feel like family and know you will be taken care of

Very disappointed with this Dr Abante’s office. I was not told my filling(one tooth) was going to be more expensive & not completely covered by my insurance until after the procedure as I was walking out of the office by the receptionist. I should have been given an option to choose whether I wanted what was covered and if I was willing to pay extra. Or asked to sign some kind of consent. She also asked me if I wanted to schedule my next appt… The audacity… Nope, definitely looking for a new dentist for myself and my family.
