I went to Dr. Askari when he was at Dentistry at the Heights in Brooklyn Heights. I had gum disease and needed oral surgery to open my gums and clean at the bone, as well as a bit of bone grafting. In total there were three or four visits, since the work had to be done in quadrants. In all of these visits, Dr. Askari was very professional, calm and friendly. He made me feel at ease at all times. With regards to his execution, the pain was surprisingly minimal and much lower than the previous dentist I had (partially due to effective anesthetics, I'm sure). It has been about two years and the treatment has been pretty successful. If there is relapse, I can only blame myself for not returning for the monthly check-ups as told. If I were still in NYC, I would certainly continue going to Dr. Askari.
However, I would say that the staff at Dentistry at the Heights was wanting. As a regular matter, they were usually curt on the phone and aloof in person. Furthermore, I had insurance complications regarding a COBRA account which went back and forth, with Heights staff unhelpful, unwilling to communicate with the insurer directly, and unable to explain things in an understandable way rather than taking a hostile tone.
A dental examination that is focused on the patient's main concern, and which may potentially overlook other problems of which the patient may not be aware. Does not include x-rays.
