Nova Dental Center

I came in for a routine cleaning which was with the hygienist. The dentist did not exam my teeth. In the past, when I’ve visited other practices, I’ve always seen the dentist; but in this case, the dentist didn’t make an appearance which made me feel shortchanged and nervous that something had been missed. I’m annoyed because now I have to find another place where I’ll actually see a dentist and have another routine check.
And the photo is not helpful because I’m assuming that’s of the dentist who I didn’t actually see.

Excellent staff, patient dentists and up-​front billing practices. Can’t ask for more in a dental office, truly.

This place rocks my world. I have been coming here for more than 6 years and it has always been a great experience. The only thing that is sometimes difficult is booking cleaning appointments because they fill up months in advance so if you ever need to reschedule it might be difficult. I try to always schedule mine asap and not reschedule. Other than that, the office is super nice, the people are super nice. They know exactly what my insurance covers and how to code things properly. The dentists are extremely professional and will take time to explain things to you so that you understand. Gold star to them. Will keep coming back for a long time.

I have had a lot of work done on my teeth over the years. I haven’t found a better dental practice. They build crowns in the office. Which is amazing. as most dentist still send molds out to be made. My front tooth chipped on the weekend when the office was closed. I called Dr Lidia hysterically and she opened her practice just for me on the day of her son’s bday party. You can’t ask for a better dentist.

My last time here. Was shocked to pay a fee of $ 128 only for x ray and cleaning. They explained that they are in a different group — which they should told me earlier.

I moved to US 2 years ago and my first experience with a dentist was really bad (no explanation of what they do, very high fee for more that I was supposed to get), then a friend of mine advise me to go to Nova Dental. I have been very happy by the professional work of the doctor Traina. When you go to the dentist you have to trust your doctor and they totally understood it at Nova Dental. I would recommend them to anyone who ask me for.

I was cheated, too (I see other reviews have had the same problem with them). After my employer switched dental insurance, I checked with Nova to see if I was still covered. They told me I was covered 100% for my appointment, only to be hit with a $ 170 bill for a cleaning and x-​rays. That was my last time going there.
Today, one of my fillings from two years ago fell out from flossing! When I called Nova for them to repair an obviously bad filling job they told me if it fell out within a year I would be covered, but I would have to pay full price now.
Going to a health professional should not feel like the same experience as an auto body shop. Go somewhere else.

I have been coming to this practice for 2 ½ years and am very happy with the service. The administrative staff is friendly (you are greeted by name) and efficient. The professional staff is knowledgeable, caring, thorough and puts patients at ease. They have not once tried to push any services on me or make me believe if I did not do something now I would regret it later. Definitely no «fear factor» tactics used at this practice. I suggest anyone looking for a dentist give consideration to Nova Dental Center.

The thought of going to the dentist gives me a panic attack, but going to Nova Dental completely changed me! The office is friendly and inviting. The hygentist I had was great! She was gentle and took it slowly. The dentist came in and was very approachable and friendly. They have a really cool system that takes video pictures of each of your teeth and it allows you to see everything. Will be going back to visit again!

I am a nightmare for any dentist! I am difficult to please, terribly frightened and become a person I don’t like when merely thinking about the dentist! I have been going to Nova Dental Center for several years and can’t imagine going anywhere else!!!
The doctor is incredibly patient and kind — doing everything and anything to keep me relaxed and calm! Not to mention performing outstanding work (I have a partial, a crown and a filling).
You won’t find a better doctor or staff in Hudson County!!!

Nova Dental actually makes me like going to the dentist and believe me that’s not an easy task as I’m petrified of needles, drills, etc!!! The hygentists are always so sweet and actually take the time to talk to you and calm your fears. I’ve had Dr. Fields both times I’ve been, including for a recent root canal, and she talked me through the entire process and was amazing. I highly recommend Nova Dental!

Superb dentists, very gentle and thorough! Hygienist is a little chatty but other than that I have no complaints. Super friendly as well!

A couple of my friends raved about Nova Dental when I asked for referrals and I have to say I have been really impressed. They fit me in for an emergency appointment for a loose vaneer on the same day, even though I was not a registered patient. The receptionist was really friendly and the dentist did a great job. The practice is clean and nicely decorated and the equipment looked modern, so it was an easy decision to try this as my new dentist, having just moved to Hoboken.
When I arrived for my first check up they had already done the due diligence with my insurance and told me what X-​rays etc I was covered for and what I had already exceeded my quota on, so I had no horrible surprises with the bill.
The hygienest did a great job cleaning my teeth, while Dr Simeonova made me feel at ease and patiently answered my many questions. I have spent many hours in a dentist chair for cosmetic and root canal treatment and I felt confident that Dr Simeonova keeps up with the latest development and equipment.
They gave me a breakdown of various treatment plans (I always require work on my teeth) and how much my insurance covered. Unlike other dentists I have been to, I felt that Dr Simeonova gave me the pro’s and cons of my various options without pushing me to the most expensive or unnecessary treatments.
Unfortunately the practice temporarily closed for a couple of week’s because of damage from hurricane Sandy. Despite dealing with rebuilding the practice the dentist still took the time to take my emergency call and recommend an alternative dentist until they reopen in December. Sometimes I feel like I am quick to write a negative review so I had to take the time to post my positive experience!

My daughter has been going to Nova for the past two years. I love the hygenist that takes care of her. My daughter has been examined by three different dentists during this time, all of whom are personable and really take the time to explain things. Although we moved out of the area, I still take her to see these wonderful people.
I scheduled today’s appointment with the receptionist two months ago. We had a conversation at that time and I informed her that my daughter and I are unable to schedule an appointment before 1:45 pm. She said okay, just get here as soon as you can. She did not call the day before to confirm the appointment.
Well, today we were ten minutes late due to transportation problems. We have never been late before. When we got to the office, the receptionist said that my daughter cannot be seen. She further went on to say that her appointment was at 1:30 pm and said that a pediatric cleaning takes ½ hour. I find her to be incredibly unprofessional by blaming me for her scheduling error. If what she is said is true, then even if I did show up with my daughter at 1:45 pm, she would have been turned away anyway.
So, yes, I find the receptionist extremely unprofessional for blaming me for her scheduling mistake. She has ruined our experience. We’ve moved on…

The receptionist is incredibly rude. I never write reviews on Unilocal but she was honestly so gross the three times I spoke to her and the one time I went there in person.

I love going to Nova dental, they really make it a point to get to know their patients and make you feel right at home. They are friendly, honest, and never try to sell you on unnessesary procedures as some places do. Last year when the big snow storm came they stayed open several hours later than normal for several days to make up for all the appointments that they had to cancel. Not many places would do that. I’ve been coming here for a year and a half now and even if I move to Brooklyn this summer, I will trek it over to Hoboken to come here.

I love Nova Dental. I’ve been here for both cleanings and fillings. Every experience that I’ve had has been great. Everyone is very friendly and does everything to make you feel comfortable. I just had a cleaning by Marlena and she was fantastic! Highly recommend her as a hygienist.

Had a great experience here (as far as dentist visits go.) Booking an appointment was very easy. The place is super clean with modern equipment. My dentist was very nice and definitely did his best to make sure I was as comfortable and pain-​free as possible. Hadn’t been to a dentist for a cleaning in awhile but there was no chastising or lecturing. I’m now flossing obsessively and will be back in six months to keep these pearly whites :)

I originally went in for a cleaning and it went fine. They found a cavity and when I went back to get it filled, it was like I walked into a completely different office.
The dentist had no interest in hearing that I was deathly afraid of needles. The novocaine didn’t numb the entire area and they did nothing when I could feel the drilling in my tooth. After I got home and the numbness wore off, I realized it felt like they filed my tooth with a nail file. It was not smooth like other fillings I’ve had and it felt sandy and rough. They ended up cutting the area under my tooth where the gum meets my cheek and I now have 2 infected cuts that are really painful.
I was also suppose to get fitted for a night guard, but they forgot to do it. I decided that if they didn’t remember, I was going to go elsewhere to get it done.
I recommend just a cleaning here. If you need any work done, keep looking. They rushed the job and I wouldn’t go back.
Update — less than a month later, the poor job they did filling a cavity really showed. They left an air pocket under the filling and my entire tooth cracked and shattered at the base. Less than thrilled about this.
Update — I went to Lucas Dental down on Bloomfield to fix this — they were AMAZING. They squeezed me in and did an entire cleaning and check up before fixing my botched filling. They had to drill out the remnants of the filling and completely redo the job.

The best dentist I’ve ever been to. Their number 1 priority is making you feel comfortable, welcome and pain free. I won’t go anywhere else.
