Scarsdale Dental Group PC

I came in for a check in because I had two broken teeth. I picked Scarsdale Dental Group because of the the positive reviews. To begin the assistant, as kind and gentle as she was, fumbled throughout the x rays etc. While she was fumbling I noticed that she took me to a room that had not been cleaned out after the patient before me. I watched the assistant put away used tools and pick up cotton balls. I didn’t see any sanitation of anything take place and as i looked around I noticed some unidentified splatters on tools and equipment. Despite of the beige décor the room was dirty and appeared unsanitary because of stains and stuff on equippment. When dentist Dr. Mobila examined me he gave me the final greeps when he used a tool that pushes air and the sides were wiping the sides of my mouth; yikes I did not see that tool receive any cleaning either. There is much more to be said but for me this was definitely the deal killer.

I had a great experience. I was in need of urgent care and they were able to provide that for me. At no point did I feel rushed or «squeezed in». The dr explained each step to me and made me feel comfortable. I will definitely be returning and would highly recommend him to friends or family.

Dr. Furnari came in on the 4^th of July when my wife needed an emergency root canal — really amazing. He’s also done a really good job on my teeth as well, and he’s sensitive to the costs and benefits of different options. The hygienists are thorough but gentle. I’m very happy with the practice.

I have been a patient of Dr. Furnari for over 15 years and have always been completely satisfied with the care, expertise and concern he has provided. I have had several different types of dental procedures done by Dr. Furnari and he and his staff have always been professional and thorough with my oral hygiene care which has included regular cleanings, cavity fillings and a few molars that have been capped. In addition, he and his office have always been very responsive to any questions. I highly recommend Dr. Furnari for anyone looking for an excellent dentist with a friendly and professional staff.

I chipped my previously bonded tooth back off today. I’m new to the Westchester area, so I called Scarsdale Dental Group and made an appointment. I was glad they were able to squeeze me in today — the only positive. I explained my condition to the dental hygienist and she seemed to understand what was going on. I brought the chipped tooth back with me to the office to hopefully get it rebonded. Last time this happened (about 8 yrs ago) the dentist was able to bond the tooth back without any complications. I asked the hygienist what to expect in terms of cost and she said they would need to do an x-​ray to determine the extent. They did the x-​ray and then the dentist came in. Unfortunately I didn’t get his name — because he never even introduced himself. I explain what happen to him and he indicated he could not bond the tooth back — that he would need to use new material. I asked him why because I’d like to know why it’s different this time around. At this point he starts to get upset, like I was questioning his judgement — he gives me short responses and stumbles over his words like it’s an argument. All I wanted was an explanation. It is after all my mouth he’s working on and it’s my money that’s paying for the procedure. He says lets just try it with the material and he shows me how he can blend the color better, etc. He leaves the room and I ask the hygienist again what to expect in terms of cost. When the dentist comes back in she asks him and he quotes a number — much much greater than the price I paid when I had this done last time. I say «ok, we can stop now» and the dentist proceeds to throw a hissy fit in the room — he shouts, «perfect» then throws the light away from my face, slams his foot into the seat lifting device and storms out of the room. I’ve never seen such disrespectful behavior from a professional like that before. It’s ok to not have great bedside manor, but at least don’t be blatantly disrespectful to your clients.
