So I need to make an emergency appointment for tomorrow and wondering if anybody has a great local dentist recommend? I need someone who can squeeze me in ASAP and since I'm not insured won't try to take advantage.

Thanks in advance!

    No idea on how easy it will be to get in, but Robert Rosenkranz on 3rd St near 8th Ave is a great dentist with a great staff. I never thought I'd have such strong opinions on a dentist, but I love this place. If they can't get you in, they might be able to give you good recommendations on who else to call.

    Thanks! My internet snooping brought his name up along with great reviews. Nice to see him endorsed here as well. I got in first thing in the morning the day after I posted this. He's awesome!

    I wish I had heard about him earlier!

    Can you guys recommend a good oral surgeon? I think I may need to get my wisdom teeth removed and the place my dentist sent me to gave me a Jan 10th appointment just for an evaluation. I don't think I can wait that long.

    Looking for a very gentle, caring dr, like the one described above.

    Thanks!

    For an oral surgeon, I highly recommend Dr. John McIntyre - he's over at One Hansen Place

    Also want to give a shout out to the Dental Spa of NY on 5th Avenue for general dentistry.

    Can someone suggest an oral surgeon who takes United Healthcare Community Plan?

    I went elsewhere for my wisdom teeth but now I need something else done. Dr. McIntyre apparently doesn't accept it. I need someone really gentle, please! Thank you!

    Rosenkranz might have an oral surgeon. Is that who does root canals? If so, he had the guy come into his office to do it and I was happy with everything (as much as you can be about a root canal).

    You can call to ask and if they don't have one, ask who they send patients to.

    Another vote here for Dr. Rosenkranz! I too had a root canal Chez Rosenkranz, DDS, and the person he brought in to do it was really good (all things considered).

    Love Dr. Rosenkranz. Has been my dentist for the last 4 years. He is very friendly and fair.

    Had a root canal there and it was a big fail. Forgot the Dr. that performed it but it wasn't Rosenkranz. I needed to have it pulled a little less than a year after it was done. Oh well!

    For an Oral surgeon I would recommend Paul Baker at 805 Union Street. He was patient, super sweet, explained everything and even called me later that evening to see how I was feeling. I never felt a thing...as an aside...I got novocaine and the laughing gas....best thing EVER!!

    My wife uses Garden Dental Arts Clinton Hill and thinks they do a fine job. They might have an opening during the week.
