The doctor did not even hear my issue fully or examine my teeth. Guess, the doctor is only in interested in any aesthetic oral surgery and was trying to suggest the same to me even though I was not there for any cosmetic consultation

Dr. Poiman is the best dentist! I have been afraid of going to the dentist my entire life. Now, I look forward to it. Dr. Poiman takes great care with each everyone that comes to see him and makes sure you are comfortable during all procedures.

I've been a patient of Dr. Poiman 's for over 20 years. He is a complete professional who makes you feel comfortable in a dentist's office. Additionally, he has always been forward thinking, using the latest technologies to help his patients. I saw him today in a post-Covid-19 world. He has gone above and beyond to take the necessary steps to ensure patients and employees are safe when they come to his office for their dental needs.

The best dentist office I have been to
August 10, 2019Colleen B.Verified patient
My experience with Dr. Poiman has been exceptional. He explains everything in detail, he is a perfectionist at ever thing he does. I went for invisalign, whitening treatment and to replace a cracked cap. He offers solutions and ask you what you think. What I love about his practice is that every thing is done there. His equipment is high tech and he replaced my cap in one day, and the cap was created in his office while I waited. He matches the color percisely to your teeth. Most dentist have you wait two weeks before your cap arrives, not at his facility. My teeth never looked better. He cares about his patients and makes them feel comfortable. They are very clean everything is wrapped. The staff is amazing, helpful and friendly. I recommend him to my friends, family and co-workers. That's the honest truth.
June 28, 2019Lila M.Verified patient
One of my best dentist visits yet. I noticed some pain and was able to schedule a next day appointment.
The Dr was able to see me, and fill my cavity, promptly and painlessly.
No needles and no drill (laser instead) made this my most next-gen and most comfortable filling ever.
January 17, 2019Max G.Verified patient
It took me years in the city to find someone that I trust as much as I trust Dr. Poiman! He and his staff are so pleasant and patient, he is fair and will explain any treatment you have questions about. Would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trusted dentist in the NYC area.

Very thorough dental cleaning. I felt great afterwards. Dr. and office staff are very friendly and knowledgeable. Office is sparkly clean. I felt very comfortable. I would highly recommend.
November 16, 2018Robin Benke D.Verified patient
Dr. Poiman is very theral and professional, which is what I like about him. He cares about his patients and wants them to be happy. He makes sure that you get what you asked for. The equipment he uses is top of the line, especially for caps and tooth bonding. I have used other dentist and the material they used on my cap cracked within two years and the tooth bonding wears out quickly and it's never the right color of your teeth. I regreted not going back to him for the tooth bonding he did 6 years ago. Dr. Poiman did my cap and I didn't have to wait a week or two for my cap to arrive. He did everything in one day. The cap was made in his office and the equipment uses is top of the line. Right now he is doing my invisiline, I'm excited to see the end result. I defenetly recommend him to all my friends at the firm.

Dr. Poiman is courteous, he took his time to listen to my concerns. He never made me feel rushed even though I had lots of questions. His staff (like Nicole, for example) are great as well.
Although I have only visited him once, when his office says they are gonna send you something, or when he says he is gonna provide you with something, they are not kidding. They make it happen.
September 27, 2013Pavel S.Verified patient
David Poiman was very friendly and personable. He was the first dentist I have ever visited who examined me before the hygienist - usually the dentist makes a quick appearance at the very end and it doesn't feel very thorough. I have to say the cleaning and prodding was probably one of the most intense and sometimes painful experiences I have had although it did seem necessary and very thorough. I was there for about an hour and half including x-rays. Overall they did a fantastic job.
