Lotus Smiles

I was looking for a new dentist and found this amazing Dental practice. It’s the best I’ve been to! Everyone is skilled, friendly, and helpful. I strongly recommend them for the best care you can get in New Jersey.

New to town, picked this dentist because of its location to the light rail. Bad choice. Don’t do it. My first visit was over-the-top. Lots of technology and cameras used as a marketing tactic to show you all the flaws with your teeth. I never had braces, but my teeth are pretty straight. The doctor immediately tried to pressure me to get Invisalign to help “improve my smile.” Immediate shame. Never ever tell a woman her smile is flawed. I remained self-conscious of my smile for a week after my cleaning. Next, he tells me I have 5 cavities. My last cleaning was 6 months prior from another dentist. I brush and floss religiously. How did I get 5 cavities in 6 months? They pressure me to set up appointments to get them filled. I set up an appointment for 2 of them and that was the worst experience I’ve ever had getting fillings. A young doctor did them and put so much stuff in my mouth I was near-choking the whole time. He would get annoyed when I asked for him to take out the block in the back of my mouth he was using to prop open my mouth. My head was titled back so far that I needed to swallow a lot but couldn’t move my tongue due to all the materials he had in my mouth at once. The numbing agents they used made me nauseous and physically ill for 24 hours. After he was done, he told me that he had to drill deeper than he expected and that my tooth might become permanently sensitive. Afterwards he showed me images of my teeth drilled. It was terrifying and stuff out of nightmares. I left shaking.

I’ve had nothing but positive experiences at Lotus smiles, the hygienists and dentists are top notch and friendly. I would recommend this office to anyone looking for a new dentist.

Horrible, horrible place for patients. They put profits over people. There are tons of other dentists in the area who will care about you as a person. I needed to reschedule my cleaning and they refused to give me another appointment that worked with my schedule until August. EVEN after I expressed concerns that I'm already overdue and this is my first time rescheduling. A woman named Marsha slammed the phone down on me when I was looking for her to help. Go somewhere else. This place is a mess and I fear it will result in dangerous implications for your health - both mental and physical

Didn’t have the best experience here as I had tooth pain for several months following my filling. Renee, the office manager, was really helpful in getting me in to be re-evaluated without any additional fees. Ended up going elsewhere for the additional work I needed done but did appreciate her help and their willingness to make the situation right
