About Shore Haven Dentistry

Individual hygienists are named again and again for gentle, thorough cleanings, a detail that shows up throughout reviews of this practice.

Shore Haven Dentistry is a general dental practice that also offers traditional braces and TMJ treatment. Reviews return often to specific staff members singled out by name for gentle, attentive care, and to a modern office with digital X-rays and updated equipment. Dr. Gonzalez and colleagues Dr. Habibi, Dr. Odukomaiya, and Dr. Nguyen are noted for explaining treatment plans and handling anxious patients calmly, including a few reports of pain-free emergency extractions. Some reviews describe billing confusion or pressure toward add-on services, so it's worth confirming coverage details before starting treatment.

Summary of 158 patient reviews, December 2024–September 2026, updated September 2026

Shore Haven Dentistry accepts multiple insurance plans to facilitate treatment affordability. Carriers include Delta Dental, UnitedHealthcare, Aetna, MetLife, Cigna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Guardian, Assurant, Sun Life, GEHA, and UCCI. Insurance coverage varies by individual plan, so patients should verify their specific benefits before beginning treatment. The practice maintains a 4.5-star rating across 174 Google reviews, reflecting patient feedback on service quality and clinical outcomes.

I came to this practice initially for an emergency treatment for my daughter. The level of care received by this entire team has been nothing short of amazing. Since then, we have created care plans for my daughter and I to receive the smiles we’ve dreamed of. Thank you to Dr. Habibi and the entire team at the Atlantic Blvd. location for ensuring our needs are met regarding pricing, scheduling, bedside manner, and all of our dental needs! #OurFavoriteDentalTeam 🫶🏼

My visit was awesome! They did everything they could to make me feel welcomed and comfortable from registration to check out. The communication was excellent, and the staff were so friendly! Special shout out to Corianna my dental hygienist. I admitted to her that it had been almost 2 years since my last dental visit and instead of scolding me, she responded “We’re just glad you’re here now”. She was very patient and very professional with the X-rays and the cleaning - Explaining every single step along the way. I will refer all of my family and friends. Thanks again!

The experience with the dental staff and Drs. was great. I was so excited to start my dental health journey with this office until a huge billing issue appeared I can't get past. Seems to be a trend with them as many reviews list. I was told Saturday that they took my dental savings plan. The young lady said she just had to find the right code and did. I had to return a few days later as I was still having pain and was told I needed to have a comprehensive exam and X-rays for $60. I understood their point and it was fine. The young man at the front desk said they had my savings plan on file and there was nothing else to check. Not once did he say anything about self-pay or that they didn't take my savings plan. So why, when I went to schedule a very expensive gingivitis cleaning and ask why there was no discount applied, did they say ," we don't take your savings plan." You told me on Saturday you did and did not mention it at the beginning of this appointment after having all my information but now suddenly you want me to pay out of pocket for this ultra expensive cleaning? Why did your employee on Saturday have a way to take my plan but not you? I want to continue my dental care with this office, but i need this billing matter cleared up. Also, I was promised a call back to speak about this mix up i never received. Please don't leave your number at the end of this review to call as you're supposed to be calling me to resolve it as promised on the phone. The dental staff is excellent and such a vibe. i hope this can be resolved so I can continue my care with them and will adjust my review accordingly.

Great care is received here at this office. The staff is amazing! If there’s one thing that could be improved is time management. My appointment was at 8:00am. I was seen at 8:15am. The cleaning was great. However, it was determined that I had a cavity and it needed to be filled. I then waited over an hour for the assistant to begin the numb process. Needless to say …. I didn’t leave the office until after 11:00am …. That’s over 3 hours. Maybe the office needs more help, but that was insane! Again, the care received was amazing. However, the time management needs to be improved.

4 years in Jax and I’ve been looking for a great dentist. Well, I finally found her in Dr. Habibi and her team. I love the transparency and the energy they brought when I first arrived. Dr. Habibi, Ms. Nikki, and Ms. Rose are all gems, from my initial interactions with them to getting work done they are an all star team. So meticulous and precise with their work. I know with me in their care, I WILL regain the smile I once had. Thank you ladies!!!
