Rego Park Dental Care

5 star without a doubt. The hardest and most important thing to look for in a doctor is honesty, and truthfully speaking, that’s one of the hardest quality to find nowadays. Especially in the States. Many health care providers are in for the money, they will either push medication or procedures that might not be absolutely necessary, or straight up tell you you have more problem/​illness than you actually do.
I’m very glad I was able to find Dr. Kim. Him and his staff, from the front desk administrator, to the dental assistant, were all very amicable and kind. He was informative and direct. Most importantly, he was honest. At my first visit, the assistant took several x rays and then Dr. Kim gave me a very thorough update since I haven’t seen a dentist for almost 5 years. I had to come because I knew there was a cavity that is severe. He informed me what procedure is required and approximately how much it will cost. Initially, I was told it will cost up to $ 2000 but he then informed me that I could seek other clinics, or a specialized dentist for a more affordable price. Dr. Kim even offer me to seek affordable dental plan ($ 15/​month) that can reduce the procedure significantly (~$ 600-​$ 800). From that I can tell he is not in it for the money. He did not try to hustle me to get the root canal done at his clinic, and offered me other affordable options.
In short, if you have the insurance that they accept, you should not have doubt to visit his clinic. He does a good work and is informative, and honest. Thanks Dr. Kim.

Dr. Kim stands out among all the other dentists in Queens. Great person, a lot of experience, and very patient to all my questions /​concerns. I always had it in my head that cleaning was painful, but not with Dr. Kim. Also, the front desk was amazing. Sweet lady that makes booking an appointment easy and pleasant. Great job guys!

It was a pleasure meeting Dr. Kim I had the most thorough Dental cleaning ever. He has a pleasant personality and when asK a questions takes times to explain. I don’t usually like to go to the Dentist because almost always is a painful experience, but Dr. Kim is an exception to the rule.
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK FOLKS.

I have no idea what Michael’s thing is, since I never had a problem even remotely to what (s)he had.
These guys are really really awesome. Each person there is extremely nice, patient, and willing to answer all questions you have. They sometimes don’t talk too clearly when wearing their mask but that is too be expected, and they know that too so they often times repeat what they have to say a few times.
It is very clean there, and the dentists are quick with their job. Not quick meaning they gloss over the details or just want to get it over with, but they know that your time is not free and you don’t want to sit there for a few hours for a checkup.
All of them have a good sense of humor, and you can actually joke with them. They smile and say hello when you show up, very warm atmosphere and I can’t say a single bad thing about them. You know how you dread going to the dentist with the anticipation of «Oh god oh god I should have brushed my teeth more. Oh god my bad breath might cause them to just run away. It is going to cost a few grand because I drank too much soda and now have more cavities than I can count both on my toes and fingers!»? Well, you go here and they won’t give you a massive lecture (maybe a small one if they feel you are right on the edge of caring about your teeth to give you a bump), they won’t sit there going «Oh, another one of THESE people», and they aren’t one of those «Ok, so you need to get this tooth, this tooth, and this tooth ripped out. I have today free, so I am ready, just let me get anesthetic» with you sitting there wide eyed, meaning they don’t over prescribe.
The one area I feel they can improve is the new main dentist quickly ran through what he was going to do and I didn’t understand exactly what was being done. I trust them so I didn’t ask, even though I should have, but I do feel that is one area he could improve on. He is a really nice guy though, no qualms about him. Another area they can improve is when explaining, let them go more into detail. For example, they found a cavity? Tell us the size, how deep it is, throw some more complicated words at you, what would happen if it would be left un treated, meaning how long till the cavity can get so deep that it gets to your roots (?) and you need to get rid of your tooth or get a root canal. Most probably don’t care about this, but it might cause more patients to realize that it can’t just be left alone because there are real risks involved in having something go untreated.
All in all, all the dentists there, and even the students, are very awesome people. Kind, have a good sense of humor, are well informed, know what they are doing from what I saw, don’t rush to get you out of the door, and are there to genuinely help you. The receptionist is really nice too though! Any questions you can ask her and she will know, you can talk with her while waiting for the dentist to be ready and she will talk back instead of sitting behind a glass panel pretending not to hear you while surfing facebook or the news or playing minesweeper. This is a really cool place, and I can’t recommend it enough. It also isn’t expensive! If they accept my garbage dental insurance, chances are they accept yours as well. Their chairs in the waiting room are ok though, not that you will be waiting for a while if you show up on time.

Dr. Kim is very friendly. He explains detailed. He is a very good dentist. My wife and I just did a scaling. From our experience, Dr. Kim was the best one yet. I had a very good experience with Dr. Kim
