Anillo, Juan A DDS

The staff is friendly, the office is extremely clean and everyone is very professional. I came in for a cleaning and the pain was minimal; they really know how to make you feel comfortable. I will be coming back for my next cleaning.

I have been going to Dr. Anillo dentistry for a long time without any complaints. I actually referred many people to his office. However, during my last visit, I had a cavity extracted and my tooth was drilled so much that it looks horrendous. One side looks shorter than the other. The bonding actually had a black dot that I now have permanently on my tooth. The job was done in less than 15 minutes, without much pause. The doctor even discussed his need for a vacation, which further highlighted his desire to be anywhere but in the dentist chair. Everyone has their days and I am not claiming doctors should be perfect, but this is what happens when an office grows too quickly too fast and the job is done in a mediocre fashion. «There will always be more patients, even if one has left the door with a shorter tooth!»

On the referral of a friend, I went to this dentist. Met Dr. Anillo on my first visit– which was an emergency and he made time to see me anyway– a major plus. He was super nice and polite. Wait time wasn’t bad at all. I was seen within 20 minutes. The receptionist was nice as well. Would recommend.

Will never go to this place again. Went in for wisdom teeth extraction. I was told I needed an x-​ray ($ 189), and everyone was polite on my first visit. After paying for the x-​ray, I made the earliest appointment they could give because «the doctor was going out of town». On the day of the surgery, I called and was told my appointment had mistakenly not been entered on the system. I insisted I was in pain and needed it done before the doctor left town so since I refused to reschedule, they VERY RUDELY asked me to come in. I was told the doctor was backed up an hour and a half and they suggested I go to a «real» oral surgeon because my case was delicate but I decided to wait. For the next thirty minutes, the receptionist proceeded to tell me all these horrible tragic scenarios that could happen to me during my surgery because I chose not to visit a real «surgeon». How does a «professional» begin to give you a death wish on a surgery you’re about to have just because they overbooked themselves and now will be late to their vacation??? This place won’t last very long.

I’m surprised this place has no reviews, as they’ve been around forever. Then again, I’ve been a patient for over a decade and am just now writing one, so maybe I cool it on the criticism.
I first came across this practice by fate, and by fate, I mean that it was the closest one to where I was living. I was 17, on the cusp of adulthood and figured I needed to start acting like a grown up. Apparently I believed that this entailed finding a dentist & going by myself (… and paying for it as a dependent on my parents’ insurance. Ah, the good old days!). Luckily, I got it right on the first try, and didn’t need to kiss many frogs to find my prince dentist (because that would be disgusting & probably really bad for my dental hygiene).
Through the years, this practice has expanded, but fortunately not their egos. They are always very courteous. From the desk staff, to the dental staff, all the way up to Dr. Manny. He actually pulled out 2 of my wisdom teeth without me even realizing it. Wait, dont freak out! I went there for that reason, I just didn’t FEEL like my teeth were getting pulled as he was doing it. (I’ve never seen the other dentist but I’m sure he’s just as wonderful. It’s probably part of their DNA). Many of the people working there have been there for years. Some at least for the 12 years I’ve been going. This tells me one very important thing, that they enjoy working there, which is usually a result of great management and creates wonderful customer service.
As far as dental hygenists go, Frances is boss. She once caught a mistake from my orthodontist that was causing my teeth to move out of place, something he hadn’t caught. Another time she suggested that I ask my orthodontist to put a permanent retainer on my top teeth so they’d stay put. Thanks to that, my teeth are still straight when everyone else I know who has had braces, complains that they’ve shifted. She is a perfectionist, (in a good way) and is always kind and in a good mood.
Throughout the years I have moved around a lot. This location has always been very far for me but I continue to go because you just can’t find service like this anywhere else. Whenever anyone mentions the word «dentist», I spring up like a ninja and recommend them. I’ve sent several people over there and they’ve all been happy as well.
I’m one of those weirdos that has always loved going to the dentist. I didn’t inherit that phobia that most people seem to have but I’m sure that if I had a bad experience, that would quickly change. Fortunately these guys have my back so it’s all good.
