I just had a new patient exam with Dr. Vaksman. The staff was friendly and the offices were clean and modern. But what impressed me most was how thoroughly Dr. Vaksman explained her findings and recommendations. And the fact that they have the 3-D printing tech on site to do their own same-day crowns. (Anyone who's had the experience of having their crown arrive back from the lab only to find it has a fit issue will understand what a benefit this is). The front office was also very thorough in presenting the treatment plan and how much would be covered by insurance vs. not.

Very thorough cleaning where the dentist pointed out a number of issue with my previous dental procedures. Appreciated that they were able to find a time to address my issue despite a very busy time. Only unfortunate issue was that the procedure ended up taking an hour longer than originally anticipated.

A knowledgeable staff and a doctor. Good explanation.

Good visit for basic cleaning

I’m so glad I found this dental clinic. After a pretty traumatic experience at my previous office, I honestly didn’t think I’d ever feel this comfortable in a dental chair again — but this team completely changed that for me. My teeth needed a lot of work, and everything was explained step by step with patience and clarity. I never once felt judged — only supported and respected. Chris, my hygienist, was outstanding — incredibly thorough, gentle, and surprisingly painless. He’s also very friendly and made the whole visit feel easy and relaxed. Dr. Irena Vaksman took the time to clearly explain my treatment options and answered all my questions in a way that was easy to understand. The front desk staff are warm and welcoming, and the entire team makes you feel at ease from the moment you walk in. The facility is modern, clean, and well organized. Overall, an excellent experience from start to finish. Highly recommend to anyone — especially if you’ve had dental anxiety in the past.

Best first-time dental visit I’ve ever had. Friendly staff, gentle dentist, clear explanations, and a very welcoming atmosphere. I felt comfortable the entire time. Highly recommend!

Friendly staff, very professional

Good service

I had a very good experience at Vaksman dental. They were professional and polite along with being very knowledgeable.

Loved the detailed explanations provided & that the dentist was so involved in the first visit.

I was very comfortable with the process.

Time is quick and offer same day.

The appointment was pleasant overall, though there were some longer-than-expected waiting times.

The space was clean and the staff was friendly—I’m grateful for all they do.

Friendly and professional staff. Dentist explained the procedure very well.

The dentist was great and the staff was wonderful

The receptionist was great and the lady who took x-rays and pictures was also super! Chris, the one who cleaned my teeth was also good - he made the experience pretty painless.

The doctor was through and had a great new plan for my dental journey. I did feel a little pressured by the staff to agree on things that I might not need but they weren’t too pushy as I am still planning.

Great place and amazing Dentist! Very kind and knowledgeable - explained everything to me in a timely manner. Also the assistants very sweet! A bit expensive (even with insurance), but still very helpful and professional with everything! Definitely recommend!

Thank you for the friendly service.

Great Dentist visit. Haven’t been to the dentist in over a year and the staff here made a usually nervous experience into an inviting environment. Kind, knowledgeable staff with great updated tech. Highly recommend this office 10/10!

My first visit was long but thorough. Had to take X-rays but technician was very good at her job and made the process quick and easy! Also my cleaning was done very thoroughly despite all the picking at the enamel/gums but that meant he left no plaque behind with the intensive cleaning. Finally the dentist examined everything and gave me a detailed explanation of what needs to be done and explained why. All in all, it was a wonderful experience and I know my family will appreciate their professionalism as well.

Very good experience!

The Vaksman Dental Group is a first class dental clinic. From the moment you walk in, you are treated like a valued patient.

Love the staff and dentist! Great explaining on what I need to do and what I should fix. I was there pain free.

Comprehensive first visit, Dr. Vaksman gave a detailed clinical assessment and my hygienist brought some laughter in my long day

I had a great experience! From the moment I walked in, the staff was friendly and welcoming. My appointment started right on time, and the whole process was quick, easy, and super efficient. The dentist was professional, explained everything clearly, and made sure I was comfortable the entire time. I was in and out faster than I expected, with no stress at all. Definitely one of the smoothest dental visits I’ve ever had — highly recommend!

I enjoyed my first dental appointment, the staff was friendly, and the office was extremely clean with state of the Yard equipment. I received a thorough explanation of my treatment plan. Thank you.

They were able to help with an important issue on very short notice

Great staff. Friendly, knowledgeable caring and professional. Easy parking and close to public transportation.
