About True Dental Care

Ceiling-mounted TVs, a spa-like office, and a separate pediatric play area make this Jersey City practice notably comfortable for anxious patients and young kids.

True Dental Care is a general dental practice in Jersey City that also offers early orthodontic treatment. Reviews describe a modern, spotless office with ceiling-mounted TVs for watching Netflix during cleanings, plus a separate pediatric space with a play and prize area that many parents say keeps young children excited to visit. Dr. Yaz and Dr. Olivia Pan are frequently mentioned for calm, thorough explanations, including one case where a headache complaint led to a CT scan that caught a mass. Some reviews raise concerns about billing and scheduling that are worth noting alongside the largely positive feedback.

Summary of 201 patient reviews, August 2024–September 2026, updated September 2026

True Dental Care serves children, teens, and adults seeking orthodontic care in Jersey City, New Jersey.

The practice offers early treatment protocols designed to address developmental concerns in younger patients, along with comprehensive orthodontic services for older age groups. The team includes Dr. Daniel Cohen, Dr. Mila Cohen, Dr. Yazan Alkhawam, Dr. Scott Kamenitz, and Dr. Elyse Kerschner, all board-certified by the American Board of Orthodontics. Treatment planning incorporates digital impressions using intraoral scanning technology, which eliminates the need for traditional molds. This approach allows the orthodontists to capture precise diagnostic records and discuss treatment options with patients in real time. True Dental Care accommodates varied schedules with evening and weekend hours. Patients can initiate appointments through the practice's online booking system. The practice has received a 4.9 rating across 1,153 Google reviews, reflecting patient feedback on care quality and service delivery. Board certification from the American Board of Orthodontics requires orthodontists to complete additional examinations and case presentations beyond standard specialty training. This credential applies to all five orthodontists at the practice. Early treatment evaluation is particularly relevant for children exhibiting crowding, bite discrepancies, or jaw growth concerns before all permanent teeth have erupted. True Dental Care provides orthodontic services to families throughout Jersey City and surrounding communities in New Jersey. Individual treatment needs vary, and in-person consultation determines appropriate timing and modalities for each patient.

I had a great experience in the office! I hadn't been in a while, so I had nerves, but they made me feel completely comfortable - especially my hygienist Akshay. They had great technology and really insightful comments about my dental plan. Would definitely recommend!

Patient-focused, transparent care in a clean facility with friendly and helpful staff. After some questionable experiences with other offices in Jersey City, I was happy to receive a pleasant experience here. Special shoutout to Dr. Yaz and Raisa for taking care of my fillings🙂

Avoid this practice. I scheduled a routine cleaning in December 2025 but True Dental refused to perform it. They used high-pressure shame and fear tactics to claim my mouth was in terrible shape, presenting a shocking $2,976 treatment plan for a deep cleaning, fillings for cavities, wisdom teeth extractions, and a crown. True Dental even falsely claimed my insurance would deny a standard cleaning because I needed a deep cleaning instead. My insurance provider later confirmed that they would never deny a routine cleaning. I have visited a dentist every six months for most of my adult life. To verify True Dental's extreme claims, I recently saw a new dentist in Jersey City. The result? No deep cleaning needed, no active cavities, no wisdom teeth issues, and no crown. They simply performed my routine cleaning, completely matching the baseline my previous dentists have found for years. True Dental relied on shame and fear tactics and assumed I wouldn't verify their claims with my insurer or another professional. Dental work should be a last resort to preserve healthy teeth, not a tool to maximize profit. Shame on this practice for treating patients like revenue targets.

Great service! Before I came in my experience with dentists was always slow and painful. Which is what kept me from going to the dentist as regularly as I should. But at True Dental they exceeded my expectations. It was soooo quick. So comfortable and not painful at all. 100% recommend

Nice clean pleasant environment with a staff that makes you feel very comfortable. I have not had the best experience with dentists, but all that has changed with True Dental Care. Dr Victor is fast, efficient and made everything absolutely painless. Couldn't recommend them more. If you're hesitant about going to the dentist...go here!
