Patient Review By Nancy T

I was in need of a root canal. I was scared and nervous!!! Both Dr. Pellicano and and the dental assistant, I forget her name, we’re FABULOUS!! Dr. Pellicano fully explained everything that he was going to do prior to beginning the procedure in addition to how long it would roughly take. The Dental Assistant was considerate and kept asking during the procedure if I was ok. When the procedure was complete, Dr. Pellicano showed me on the X-rays exactly what he did, what the after care would be and how to proceed with my general Dentist to finalize treatment. Upon checking out, the receptionist was also very helpful as far as asking for insurance information and explaining the process. I am more than happy with the Advanced Endodontic group!!!! Thank you to the entire staff for making this scary situation easier for me. I will be sure to keep you on “speed dial” and refer this group to friends and family!!!!!

Patient Review By Maria M

I called on a Friday morning in a lot of pain and was told to come right in - no waiting at all! Everyone was super nice and explained everything to me, from billing to the procedure to post treatment instructions. I experienced zero pain at all during the procedure. Highly recommend Dr. Apolito and this practice!

Patient Review

This was the 3rd office I called but the first to put me on an emergency list for the next day. They prepared me for a long wait which I was more than willing to accept but got me in about 20 mins after my arrival time. Better yet? The entire staff was incredibly pleasant and a general cleaning is more painful than the root canal. Highly recommend!

Patient Review

They work magic! Pain free kind magic. I needed a root canal that others said couldn’t be done and I that I should pull it and get an implant. This magician took one look at my X-ray and did not flinch. I received a very intricate root canal, but most importantly they saved my natural tooth!! I highly recommend!! You know they’re good when it takes 3 wks to get an appointment!! Well worth the wait!!

Patient Review By COLLEEN P

From the moment I called. I was greeted with care and concern for what my medical need was. Doreen was extremely helpful, and answered all my questions and scheduled an appointment immediately that day with Dr. IRA Zohn. Pam conducted the x-rays with ease. From the moment Dr Zohn came in to the room, he assured me everything would be pain free and I would be okay. God Bless You Dr Zohn. You are the BEST!!! Endodontist I have ever received treatment from. Your kind words and thorough explanation step by step gave me comfort in handling the surgery. I Highly recommend Advanced Endodontic Associates, PA. Ocean NJ. More physicians should provide such exemplary professional treatment. Thank you Dr Zohn Sincerely, Colleen P.

Patient Review By Maryanne K

Dr. Pellicano was terrific. He is a gentle, caring professional, who took the time to explain the procedure. I would recommend him highly. The reception people were very kind as well. My only issue is that when I checked out, I was informed that I had a balance from a prior procedure of $175. This was an unsuccessful root canal. I am not blaming anyone for that, but given the circumstances, I believe that it would have been an issue of good will to have forgiven that balance.

Patient Review By Ketav S

I had lot of pain in my tooth.I took an emergency appointment for Dr. Apolito and saw him.He took a X-ray and did couple of checks on my tooth and told me that my tooth is still not that bad that I have to go for root canal. And he was sooooo right. My pain was due to the big cavity filling done the previous week. Doctor told me that I should give at least 3 weeks to become pain free. I want to thank doctor Apolito - because of his advice I did not get the root canal done and able to save my original tooth. I really appreciate him.In future if I ever have to go for root canal I will get that done with Dr. Apolito.

Dr Zohn and Shirley were excellent. Considering I was there for a root canal, it couldn't have gone better. I would recommend Dr Zohn to everyone. His engaging personality and his unique ability to make a patient feel comfort in a time of stress is unmatched. I have been going to dentists for 60 yrs and this was by far, my best experience,

Patient Review By Phyllis McCartin M

My procedure was an emergency arranged by my dentist. Everyone was especially pleasant and supportive. Although there was some difficulty getting me anesthetized the procedure went well. The follow up went much more smoothly and was much less painful. The restoration was completed and I feel great.

Patient Review By Debra Q

I was scheduled an appointment the same day I called due to pain. My dentist referred me to this office. They were very pleasant and wanted to make me comfortable as I went through it unpleasant procedure. Although I am in pain a day later it is to be expected. They took x-rays before during and after the root canal to make sure everything was done perfectly.

My experience with the office and Dr. Pellicano was first-rate. The communication with the office was excellent. They got me in quickly for a consult and I got all of my questions answered. When I went in for the procedure I felt well cared for. There was a question about what work should be done and Dr. Pellicano was patient with me and allowed me to make a choice.

Patient Review

I had an emergency calcification root canal 2 weeks ago, which apparently is rare and challenging. I was in excruciating pain prior to having the procedure and had to wait until my permanent filling to be placed yesterday to be completely pain free. Dr. Pelicano said he had never seen a case like mine and still did an excellent job! He eased my anxiety and didn't give up. My dentist was very pleased with his work as well because he had never had a case like mine as well. Thank you so much Dr. Pelicano, I feel 100% better because of you!

Patient Review By Tom M

I felt it was necessary to post a review after my experience yesterday. My primary dentist had arranged for me to have an emergency visit to the Freehold office due to my constant pain that I was experiencing. The office staff at the desk were pleasant and accommodating. Thereafter I was fortunate to meet Dr. O. and her assistant Lauren. Following x-rays to include the 3d xray machine, together the two of them performed an emergency root canal. It was a tough procedure for me because it is difficult for me to breathe from my nose due to allergies. Several times throughout the procedure I needed to stop because of my breathing condition. In fact at one point I thought I was having an anxiety attack. Not once was Dr. O. or Lauren impatient with me knowing that my needing to stop the procedure several times only prolonged them from finishing. Instead they demonstrated comfort the entire time, repeatedly telling me that I was doing well and occasionally rubbing my arm to convince me. I must say that Lauren's bedside manner is beyond belief. She is truly an asset to your practice. The same for Dr. O. She was awesome! To think that I have never met either of them prior and for me to be treated in such a fashion was such a great feeling in a time of need. I thank both of them for their work and treating me the way they did. Amazing! Tom Manzo

I have hated the dentist since i was a child....57 now and still feel the same way. I recently had my second root canal at this practice. All I can say is wow. Clean, professional, caring and painless. If you are putting off a visit out of fear come to this practice they are great and you won't regret it.

Patient Review By Paul S

Dr. Pellicano was very attentive and very informative during my root canal treatment. He walked me thru the whole process, scans root canal and filling my tooth with a temporary filling. His staff was outstanding before during and after the procedure. I highly recommend Dr Pellicano for a root canal procedure. Thank you again.

Patient Review By Joette D

I was referred to Dr. Ira Zohn by my dentist. Dr. Zohn was thorough, patient, kind, and informative . He examined my teeth and after considering and discussing each possibility, he advised me to wait and not to have the root canal at the present time. He is a gentleman and a true professional. I appreciate his honesty and care. I will definitely be going back when necessary. My heartfelt thanks to Dr. Zohn and his staff. This office is extraordinary!

Patient Review By Ellen G

I was very nervous coming into the office for my procedure. I had only had one other root canal, and it was a complete disaster (done by another doctor). The staff was very warm and friendly and explained everything prior to it happening. Dr. Apolito walked into the room and immediately put me at ease. It was clear he had done a few of these, and told me exactly what to expect and what I would feel. He was on point! Once the Novocain took effect, I felt nothing! As much of a mess as the first root canal was, that was as good as this one was. I was slightly sore for a few hours, and then it was like it had never been done. I would HIGHLY recommend Dr. Apolito and his staff to anyone and everyone!

Wonderful experience! I was a nervous wreck for my first root canal! Dr Ostrometskaya was amazing! From the front desk, to the office manager (my friend Doreen!), to the Dr and her assistant Chelsea, every one was beyond nice and very reassuring that it would be quick and painless! I was so surprised at how quickly it was done (about 15 minutes)! I would highly recommend anyone needing an Endodontist to go here!

My experience was an emergency appointment referred by Dr. Brodsky (see separate excellent review). His office called and they said that if I could be patient, they could shoehorn me in. The staff in Freehold was very friendly and efficient. Dr. Thai was polite, caring about my pain, but straightforward and no nonsense. She was quick and sure - I’ve had several root canals, and she was by far the most efficient. No idle chitchat, no wasted moves. Best experience I could have wished for. Highly recommend.
