“I would go back because the dentist was actually very friendly. The one thing I didn't like about their office was that their restroom was located on a different floor, but that wasn't a big deal. The assistants were pretty friendly. They did not start exactly punctually, but they kept me informed as they were going, even if they were behind on other patients. They accepted my insurance in advance. There was an intake form that they needed me to fill out in advance, and because I wasn't able to do it easily, the assistant helped me. We did a comprehensive dental exam and, unfortunately, found that there were some inflammatory parts to my gum, so I was not very happy that we needed extra cleaning that cost out of pocket. They did tell me the cost up front and did not surprise me with any additional fees. ”

They did a great job explaining how to take great care of my teeth, and I don't feel like they were trying to up-sell any services or provide unnecessary care. I really felt like I could trust their advice!
I had a great experience here! The clinic is clean and tidy, and the staff is very friendly. The doctor took the time to patiently explain the best treatment plan for me, and the teeth cleaning was incredibly thorough. I highly recommend this place!
Verified patient
was told to wait for them to confirm my insurance, after i waited for 1 hour they said that they have validated my insurance but that i would have to pay upfront in cash and re-imbursed later which is something that I have never seen in other clinics where they would only ever charge me if there is a copay
Verified patient
Dr. Babauta was great, along with the rest of the staff. Everyone was super nice; I have severe dental anxiety and they were understanding and supportive. They were also great at explaining things and helping me to understand my care, which I really appreciated. Short wait time, easy to reach/communicate with, very friendly and professional. I will be making this my permanent office and I would highly recommend it to anyone.
Verified patient
Very messy, not clean office and the staff were not nice. I spent over 3.5 hours just for a cleaning, and it felt like they didn’t know what they were doing. Hurt me with that teeth cleaning thing several time just because she was talking to other person. The doctor only spent about 20 minutes with me, very short talk even though it was my first visit. Overall, horrible experience.
Dr Baubada and his team of X-ray and Teeth cleaning assistants are so nice and made me feel completely at ease. I would definitely go back again.
Verified patient
I had a wonderful visit w/ Dr. B and his staff! They were very easy to work with, talked through all of my needs, and made me feel confident about my treatment plan!
Everyone in the office was excellent! Front desk staff are lovely, attentive, make you feel at home & smart. Hygienist was great and did a great job for my deep cleaning. He listened to me when i asked for change in methods between topical numbing cream and injection to the gum. Doctor and his assistant were great, attentive and effective during putting in my 4 fillings. Deep cleaning & filling are generally uncomfortable processes cause you need to keep your mouth open for a long time, you want to swallow, materials and injections are being put in your mouth but hygienist, dentist & dental assistant all did an amazing job. Most of them are warm & smart millennials. Highly recommend
Verified patient
It was incredible. Dr. Babauta walked me through redoing my crowns. He was very thorough. The whole team was amazing and kind. Monica, the receptionist, is the best. She always manages to work with my busy schedule.
I have some pretty bad issues with my teeth right now and the Dr was very kind about it. Even though my insurance didn't cover everything the office personnel made sure I knew what my options were. Great office.
Verified patient

Welcoming. Excellent.
My visit was excellent.
The team is very professional. I was greeted immediately by Ckoryna. Dr. Babauta was delicate and very professional. I would definitely come back and would recommend my friends and family.
Dr. B is the friendliest dentist! As someone with dental anxiety, he made sure to make me feel comfortable and took the time to explain each step of the appointment. He is very attentive to his patient's needs.
My visit with Dr. B was great, and I felt he's been the best dentist I 've seen in years! Work was excellent, painless and smooth! Both of his dental assistants were very caring, and I really enjoyed being attended by all of them!
It was great, very happy w/ type dentist. He had wonderful bedside manner and made sure I was comfortable throughout the entire visit.
An amazing experience! Very welcoming professional, & kind provider. He made my anxiety fade the moment we had a conversation. Excited to came back for treatment.
I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Babauta! Growing up I had a lot of anxiety about the dentist, but his calm and friendly demeanor made me feel comfortable and he explained everything in language I could understand. He is confident in his skills and has restored my faith in healthcare! I didn't even feel him get me numb! I cannot recommend him enough!
