I have not been very adamant about seeing a dentist. I recently cracked my tooth on a popcorn kernel and I knew there was an exposed nerve. I work 9-5 so I had a really hard time finding a dental practice that would take me short notice on a Saturday - and Dr. Babaev and his team were available. I was taken in almost immediately, and all my worries were put to rest. He really listened and was extremely professional and kind. I ended up needing a root canal done (have had several and my experiences have been subpar at best as an adult. This was not the case with Dr. Babaev. We decided to do this in 2 appointments. Surprisingly enough…. I walked away without any pain. Both times. Days after - no pain. He really did an excellent job. The fact I returned for the second appointment speaks volumes to me - and because of my decision to visit this office, I feel a lot more confident about treating my dental health. I can honestly say I look forward to returning. Highly recommended :)

This office was very professional and the staff were all so kind and caring. The dentist was very thorough and kind as well. I highly recommend this practice.
August 28, 2025Kayla T.Verified patient
Was a good experience for my first visit. He and his staff was very professional and made you feel comfortable. He explained every procedure step by step. Definitely switching to this office.
July 30, 2025Marjorie M.Verified patient
In and out, beautiful people. My son and I went there for the first time, and I must say, I'm thrilled with our experience. The staff was friendly, the service was efficient, and the atmosphere was welcoming. After 12 years with one dentist in the city, I was hesitant to make a change. But since I started working in Brooklyn, I needed a new dentist, and I'm so glad I found this one. The location is now very convenient for me. This is my new dental home. Dr. Ben was AWSOME
July 25, 2025Amir J.Verified patient
The Dr was so sweet and made me feel very safe. I have a history of TMJ and he really took his time to make me feel safe and comfortable. I would highly recommend
June 21, 2025Sydney S.Verified patient
Booked a first time appointment for my 1 yr old. Unfortunately, my child was scared and cried the whole time. However, Dr. Babaev and his staff were super empathetic and made the situation feel more comfortable. Will definitely return when the chance arises.

Dr. Benjamin is excellent. So patient and kind during my first visit and was able to get right to work to ensure the best plan forward. He even called the next day to check on me and see how I was healing, which is above and beyond expectations. He is a great listener and very patient, all qualities that you look for in a Doctor. The staff in the office are all friendly and provide great service. The office is very well kept and scheduling made easy.
I even booked my mother an appointment after my 2nd visit. It is very hard to find a good dentist these day (trust me, I have been searching for 4 years now!) I truly believe I have found my new dental home with the great service and options provided.
I highly recommend....
April 1, 2025La-Shaneigh C.Verified patient
I took my two young children for their first dental experience and it could not have gone more Perfect. Dr. Ben and his staff were so amazing and patient they made the kids feel at ease and even had a special treat for them after their exam. I have recommended Dr. Ben and his staff to everybody that asks for a pediatric dentist. It is the greatest dentist-experience? I have ever had and we plan on returning for years to come.
March 31, 2025Natalie G.Verified patient
I am very uncomfortable with dentists and Dr Ben made me feel at home they were playing music and he asked me what kind of music do I like so I would not be so nervous. Very patient explained everything.
March 11, 2025Donna D.Verified patient
Very friendly and welcoming staff. The Dr had great bedside manner as well and didn’t push any unnecessary treatment. Made sure I was comfortable, aware of what they were doing, and answered any questions prior to leaving.
Will definitely be back for routine checkups!
March 5, 2025David L.Verified patient
I cannot express how happy I was we chose Dr. Ben for our pediatric dentist visit for my 3 & 4 yr. Olds. He and his staff went above and beyond to make them feel safe and happy! I was curious how my 3 yr old would do but he went right up to the Dr. and even grabbed his hand! The best dental experience I have had so I will definitely be switching Dentists for the rest of the family to Dr. Ben! 10/10 with bedside manner and thoroughly explained everything so the kids would understand. I will absolutely be recommending to family and friends!
February 26, 2025Natalie G.Verified patient
Dr. Babaev and his team were very pleasant to work with and assured I was well taken care of. I arrived early and was seen with minimal wait time. Dr. Babaev was very efficient, informative, and handled my care with great skill. I am sure to return for another dental cleaning.

excellent
February 19, 2025Alan G.Verified patient
I have been petrified to go to the dentist (very serious phobia) and b/c of that, I did not go for a few years (plus had no insurance) from the second I booked my appt. The office called to verify my insurance and was also kind enough to go over my benefits. To be honest I felt very embarrassed going b/c I knew how bad my teeth were, I was afraid of being judged. I cannot express how comfortable, kind, caring, dr. Ben was. He saw how nervous I was & wanted to do anything he could to make me feel at ease (& he did!). He offered many solutions (my biggest fear was the pain), long story short dr. Ben cured my phobia & I never thought I would say this but I am actually excited for my future appts. I also want to mention the staff, so patient & supportive. Overall I wish I can give more than 5 stars, above & beyond all my expectations. If you’re looking for a new dentist, please you will have an amazing experience & wont be disappointed! Thank you, Dr. Ben & Team, I will see you soon!

Dr. Ben is the Goat !
November 26, 2024Elijah B.Verified patient
Every visit with Dr. Ben is the best! Visiting with Dr. Ben is ALWAYS fun laughs and informative lessons. He gives my questions and concerns thorough thought, while still getting a smile out of the naturally uncomfortable experience. He and the rest of the team makes it an all around pleasurable experience. I know people dread the dentist but I always look forward to seeing mine. Thank you Dr. Ben!

Dr. Ben Babaev is very knowledgeable Doctor who truly cares for the well being of his patients. Not only is Dr. Babaev knowledgeable, his bedside manner allow the patient to fully understand the procedures that are happening in great detail, making you feel at ease. Dr. Babaev has done a tooth extraction, root canal, and filling work on me, all of which was done with 0 pain. Dr. Babaev also not only explains the procedure before it happening, but will show you on the X-ray taken exactly what he is looking for and why the procedure would need to be done as well as going over alternate courses of action. I truly recommend Dr. Babaev not only because of his empathy and genuine care for the well being of his patients but also because of his true love for the field of Dentistry!

Dr. Babaev is a very knowledgeable doctor who cares deeply for the health of his patients. Not only does Dr. Babaev explain exactly what is going on but will show you it on the X-rays taken, explaining exactly what he's looking and how to treat it. He also went step by step on treatment plans and what course of action to take during my first appointment to address all dental concerns. I fully recommend Dr. Babaev because of his professional manner, empathy, and genuine love for the field he is in.

Dr. Ben was a great dentist. He took the time to get to know me, and was gentle when he did my tooth cleaning. He also spent time one care to me.

Dr. Babaev, a young, charismatic, doctor performed a much needed root canal procedure for me when I was in severe pain. I didn’t have to wait at all. His team is super sweet (and they have a great taste in music) and were very encouraging. I almost want another cavity to have a root canal done because of how comfortable it was. If you’re looking for someone that’s young and will fight to get the best treatment for you, Dr Babaev is the one.

Dr. Ben removed my wisdom tooth during my visit. He was quick, efficient & made sure I was completely comfortable before he began the removal. He made sure I was prepared for my visit by walking me through the steps of the procedure. When my tooth was removed, he instructed me on the best possible aftercare. My experience overall was great (10/10!!!) & I will be back for him to extract the rest of my remaining wisdom teeth.
More than 1 year agoAD
Dr. Babaev truly made my extraction procedure a comfortable experience. He was very patient and reassuring the whole time, which is rare in most medical experiences. I could tell he was well experienced in the administration of local anesthesia, I didn't feel a thing! Overall I highly recommend Dr. Babaev for anyone looking to have any dental work done!
