All staff were professional from the start to finish: the person making my appointment, everyone answered my questions and the doctor was knowledgeable and was able to explain things so I understood my options… Thank you!

I have been taking my 3 children here for the past few years. Until most recently, when I changed insurance companies and I asked them if I could keep my sons cleaning appointment to which they told me I would have to pay out of pocket $159 to which I agreed to and understood but then the receptionist said she would have to get approval on this. When she called me back she conveyed that the owner, Dr. Mark Pukenas (who has never seen my son) would not allow me to refuse an X-rays and I was required to get these as well this visit, so it would be a total of $350++. I then asked to speak to the manager, Nancy and explain to her as well it was not necessary at this time to get the X-rays and I had to budget for the next time. (My son has never had a cavity or issue ever). Also, keep in mind this is NOT their policy. I have personally had a cleaning here and they recommended an X-ray but I refused it and they allowed me to proceed. It’s sad that businesses see the opportunity to charge someone cash and take advantage of it. But, also that they are willing to lose 3 clients over all of this. Very disappointing.

I am a new patient there. I was in and out with a treatment plan. The staff are very kind. The office decor is niiiiice. Lol The Dentist reassured me we would be able to address my dental issues with minimal discomfort. She was very welcoming and present. I'm grateful I chose the right place.

I'll start with the receptionists Abby and Chasidy. Their warm good morning greetings, giving me good etd time for my ride pick up, scheduling my next appointment to thank you and enjoy your day said it all! As for Stacy the hygienist, she took the x-rays and cleaned my teeth. When I say impressed, she was very gentle and explained everything that was being done! Assistant Sharon and I introduced ourselves and I cracked a few jokes, and she numbed me right up preparing me for the dentist! Dentist Dr. Zahara Ayub is Simply the BEST!!! I needed a filling and I let her and Sharon know that if I was uncomfortable at all, I would put my index finger up letting them know to stop. Everything went well. 😁 Would I recommend Atlantic Smiles? ABSOLUTELY 💯 KUDOS Y'ALL 👍🏿🦷😁

They took me as an emergency yesterday. I called with jaw pain around 9:00 and they had me in before lunch. They immediately took x-rays and gave me suggestions to remedy the issue. This is not the first time they took care of me on short notice with caring and compassion. I highly recommend the practice.
