Professional service with a gentle touch

by Jgc35 at Citysearch

Having not gone to a dentist for a number of years, I was recommended to visit Dr. Teichman and I'm glad I did. From start to finish I was totally satisfied with all the work I had done which was extensive (had 2 crowns/root cana/inlay and a lot of gum work done as well as Zoom whitening). If you are afraid of pain, during my whole entire time I visited not one time I felt any (I know some of you don't visit dentists for that reason). When working on my mouth Dr. Teichman was always concerned about if I felt any pain which was comforting. All equipment he uses are state of the art, office is clean. He and his staff all professional, and very friendly, and his hygenist Denise is excellent at what she does. I"M glad I took the advice because I have found my full time dentist.

Comprehensive Dental Treatment

by goyanks1 at Citysearch

As a patient of Dr. Teichman for over 12 years, I can say that he and his office have successfully diagnosed and treated every dental concern that I have had, from basic "repair and maintenance" to the complexity of a root canal.

From a purely clinical standpoint, a visit to this office is exactly what a patient would want--current technology in terms of equipment and knowledge, spot-on diagnosis, and efficient, pain-free execution of necessary work. The office also provides a comfortable physical environment, and as a pleasant bonus, a friendly, concerned staff.

For a number of years after a friend in the neighborhood recommended Dr. Teichman, most of my visits were for cleaning and check-ups. Denise is a highly skilled hygienist, and a pleasant, positive person who clearly cares about her work and her patients. She has also administered the Zoom cleaning, which was well worth it. Recently, as my "pre-teichman" crowns have been wearing out, more extensive work has been required. All necessary work is performed quickly and efficiently by Dr. Teichman. In addition, his willingness to explain his diagnoses and any options available is always appreciated. This extra concern for the patient is pretty rare these days in medicine. Many professionals don't seem to want to take the time to explain or listen. Finally, on the administrative side, Sophia always will happily answer questions about billings and insurance benefits, and accommodate one's schedule for visits. This is an office which has everything a patient could want or need in dental care.

• Pros: technology, execution, comfort

I highly recommend Dr. Teichman because of his excellent, modern approach to dentistry. I have been going to him for many years now and feel that his practice continues to maintain the highest standards. This is because he is highly skilled and very current. He works with his patients and provides the best dental care anywhere.

Caring, Careful, Proficient!

by Emily Sachar at Citysearch

Dr. Teichman has been our family's dentist for 20 years. He is no drill-and-fill dentist but rather the sort of man who remembers where my children are in school, why I want to get rid of the wrinkles over my lip and cares about my wallet as much as my mouth. He has the latest equipment, the latest training and a wonderful, organized staff that does not make errors. Dr. T himself is an amazing human being with a fascinating personal story -- ask him -- and the sort of clinician who looks beyond the superficial to find the true story of your teeth, your mouth. I have turned to him for root canals, teeth whitening and all the basics. His hygienists are also fantastic (and hats off to Sophia, the office manager!). Afraid of the dentist? This is the practice to visit. Park Slope is lucky to have such a fine man and a fine dentist in its midst!

• Pros: Most thorough dentist I've ever seen

Cutting Edge Dentistry Park Slope, Brooklyn

by DrJTav at Citysearch

I had to search for a dentist nine years ago after my dentist of many years retired. I have a good friend who recommended that I see Dr. Teichman. I had always complimented my friend on his unique killer smile.

At my friends suggestion I contacted Dr. T's office and was sen for a check up and consultation. Truth be told I had always wanted to improve my smile. Dr. T took care of me and recommended some subtle interventions that would improve my overall dental health and appearance.

I followed his advice, as I was impressed with his knowledge. I could see that his office was equipped with cutting edge technology and equipment. Over the past nine years I have developed a relationship with Dr. T and his staff. They are all courteous and professional.

Today I went to the office. As I was seated in the examination room, the dental assistant greeted me. When I said "Hello", the assistant spontaneously said to me. "Your teeth look so nice, so white!" I was taken by her comment, as it confirmed that Dr. T had done a great job in improving my general looks and overall dental health. The two reasons why I sought out his care initially. It felt great to get that feedback. I am still smiling. Thanks Dr.T, you are the best!!

• Pros: State of the Art Office, Professional Knowledgeable Staff
• Cons: None

Best Dentist I Know

by jmk67 at Citysearch

I am so glad I went to Dr. Teichman. My smile was something I had always been self-conscious of and Dr. Teichman totally changed that. He completely made over my smile and I feel like a new person.

Dr. Teichman was recommended to me by a couple of friends who were already patients and I am so happy I found him. Dr. Teichman is a great dentist, really talented and can make anyone feel comfortable. He takes the time to make sure you are relaxed and understand the treatment he recommends.

I was very much at ease and even more so impressed with his work. Dr. Teichman made me laminates and I can't even begin to tell you how happy I am with the results. My smile now looks and feels completely natural.

Dr. Teichman’s office is also really nice. His staff was very friendly and attentive and you can watch tv on a flat screen while you are having work done. Really nice added touch!

I highly recommend Dr. Teichman to anyone. You will be so happy you went!

• Pros: really talented, great work, close to subway

The best dentist I know.

by johnconti at Citysearch

I have been a patient of "Dr.Teichman"for almost 40 years.He is quite simply the best.He is extremely efficient and thorough in the art and science of dentristy. When you have work done by him you can take relief in knowing that the job was done to perfection.He is also very gentle and has a great "bedside manner".He also has an exellent staff,most notably being Denise,his dental hygienist who I have been a patient of for 22 years.Denise,like Dr.Teichman is also simply the best-extremely thorough and very carring.When she gets done cleaning your teeth,you feel like a new person.Also,you will never meet a nicer person than she.The office manager,Sophia,I also have nothing but praice for.She is efficient and courteous and it is always a pleasure to be greeted by her worm smile which makes you feel welcome as soon as you come in.I am indeed fortunate to be a patient of Dr.Teichman and his exceptional staff.

Most Gentle Denist I Know!

by ms1228 at Citysearch

Thank goodness I found Dr. Teichman! For years I have had to drag my daughter to the dentist. She had a bad experience with a dentist a few years ago (wisdom teeth pulled, not enough novacaine) and has a genuine fear of the dentist. I arrived at Dr. Teichman's office through a recommendation from one of my friends who takes her kids there. He was worth the trip! I live in Manhattan and would have traveled twice the distance after seeing how patient he was with my daughter. Dr. Teichman explained everything very carefully to my daughter and spoke to her directly which I think helped (rather than talk to me "the mom"). He was very thorough, knowledgeable and is a great dentist.

When my daughter and I left Dr.Teichman's office, my daughter said that while going to the dentist is not exactly a party, she wants Dr. Teichman to be her dentist from now on. She said Dr. Teichman "made her feel better."

I hightly recommend Dr. Teichman to anyone with children or if you have a fear of dentists. He is a great dentist and I think can calm anyone down! I'm not surprised he has all of these great reviews!

• Pros: great with kids, great dentist, friendly staff

Best Dentist I have ever had.

by TDietrich at Citysearch

I have been a client of Dr. Teichman's for 8 years. I am 40 yoa and have never had a better Dentist. Teichman's style is direct, clear AND compassionate...which I have never experienced in another professional of his caliber. He has provided me with most of the dental services that anyone could require from serious to simple and has always worked with me in identifying options, i.e., weighing cost within my budget and my health and cosmetic goals. While I, frankly, found his office a bit cold on my first two visits (different receptionist at the time) having developed a relationship with them, I always feel welcome and that they are genuinely happy to see me, since. Dr. Teichman is happy and committed to being a great Dentist. He is truly engaged in his work and art. I am confident in him and relaxed with him, which is an awful lot to expect from a dental visit.

I feel privileged to have found him. In fact, I am moving out of the country soon and have every intention to visit him regularly. Also, I must mention Sophia (receptionist) and Sandra (technician) contribute to a great team!

• Pros: Highest quality service in Park Slope community. Excellent!
• Cons: None
