Plainsboro Dental Arts LLC

I called after hours with a dental emergency. Received a call back from a dentist just minutes later. She reviewed my situation in depth. Was very thorough & made sure I'd be comfortable over night until the next morning. In the office the next day, again, she was extremely thorough & caring. A great experience!

I have been coming here from Edison NJ for over 25 years. The front desk is excellent and professional and their hygienists are top notch. I do miss the consistency of having Dr Patterson there but the rotation of 4 dentists does take a little getting used to. Nevertheless they do coordinate well with my periodontal team in Edison and have no issues currently.

Happy to be back with this group. My family and I went here for a couple years and insurance changed again so we had to change dentists. The latest insurance change made Plainsboro in network again and I am so happy to be back.

My cleaning exam went well and everyone was pleasant. It has been about 18 months since my last cleaning, Covid lockdown, and upon arrival the front desk staff was welcoming but new to me. The previous front desk staff that I am familiar with were not present. As I mentioned, the cleaning went well, very professional. I will say that the process appeared rushed and the staff seemed more on auto pilot rather than their usual relaxed mode. Several issues were found and to me it seemed that the conversation on what will be done was discussed primarily between the staff and it felt that I, the patient, was left out of the plan. Upon asking questions the answers I received were very quick and very little discussion took place as to what the patient wanted. It seemed the even my concerns were dismissed rather quickly. This in not the correct way, in my opinion, to handle an expensive and somewhat painful program to a patient who has had many terrible experiences as a youth with a dentist that I swear was sadistic.nnAll of my visits that I interacted with Dr. Paterson were much more relaxed and understanding of the patients anxiety. Dr. Patterson was much calmer and took the correct time to explain everything and would solicit my questions and he would always have the correct answers. This last experience was definitely not what I expected, so much so I plan on looking for another practice that better fits my personality.

I went for a cleaning. The waiting room was not crowded and I was admitted almost instantly. The hygienist was courteous and professional. The doctor was attentive to my needs.
