Dear Dr. Maniscalco,
I wanted to drop you a line to let you know what a positive experience I had with the filling you addressed for me. Not only do I not have any sensitivity in the tooth (Hopefully that = no root canal) but I also felt NOTHING during the actual procedure. That was a first in 38 years, so thank you! Looks like I chose the right dentist.

You walk in a client and walk out as family. That’s no exaggeration. Dr. Maniscalco is extremely skilled and current on the latest dental procedures and technology. The wonderful staff will make sure you don’t leave unless everything is right, you understand any next steps and insurance matters are taken care of. There is a generosity of heart and kindness expressed to everyone who enters the newly renovated office space. You don’t have to be afraid to go to the dentist anymore!

I had a traumatic experience with a dentist many years ago and have since been terrified of going to the dentist. I only went when it was an emergency situation and then only to dentists who administered anesthesia. I can count on one hand how many times in over 40 years that I sat in a dentist’s chair.

I recently had a problem with a tooth that needed to be extracted. I searched for a dentist who specialized in sedation dentistry and found Dr Maniscalco.

I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Maniscalco and his very pleasant and professional staff. From my first conversations on the phone, I was put at ease and was scheduled for a consultation a few days later. Upon arrival to his pristine office suite, I was met by a warm and welcoming staff and soothing atmosphere.

He has a very busy practice and was fully booked for longer than I could wait. I was in considerable pain and Liz, who assists Dr Maniscalco, kindly offered me her own appointment slot a few days later so I could have the work done as soon as possible.

I had the tooth extracted under conscious sedation. I had no recollection of being conscious except for a brief moment and the next thing I knew I was ready to go home.

After the extraction, Dr. Maniscalco personally called twice to check on me before my follow up visit, which was a week later, and promptly returned another call I made to him. He also gave me his private cell phone # so I could reach him directly.

The adjacent tooth was also suspicious. I had consulted with another dentist who wanted to pull both teeth and do additional extensive and expensive work. Dr. Maniscalco took a more conservative approach to wait and watch before deciding if the second tooth could be saved or needed to be extracted as well, something I hope we can avoid.

My next visit is scheduled for a cleaning which I expect to get through without any nitrous oxide or IV sedation. I hope, with the Doctor’s and his staff’s help and compassion, to overcome my fear and make regular visits in the future.

Thank you for making the dentist a pleasant experience. Tooth problems are never easy to deal with when you are in pain. You guys have been great.

The best!!!! Staten Islander worth the drive(and toll) over the bridge. Dr M and his staff are amazing!!! Shout out to Liz in billing!!!! 😊😊 The transition from the previous dentist(Dr.Taglianetti) has been spot on. Even did amazing upgrades to the facility. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

My experience with Dr. Maniscalco has been so very different. I cannot recommend him and his incredible friendly, caring staff enough. He is our dental hero!

The (dental treatment) experience is unique, both the office and staff. Staff is focused on patient care and on me, the patient. The office and treatment areas reinforce that your focus is on patient care. I experience this focus as expert knowledge and true caring, therefore I trust.

I’ve been scared of dentists my whole life and I can safely say this is the best dental experience I have ever had. All of the staff are super friendly, are very attentive and right now, they’re very conscious of all the COVID restrictions. You will feel safe and secure in knowing that you’re in very capable hands. You should definitely consider Dr Maniscalco for your next dental procedure if you need to have implants.

I have been a patient with these folks for more than 30 years for overall dental health. Recently, Dr. Maniscalco has come on board. Dr. M. is very competent and is personable. The staff is great and have been serving their patients with knowledge and kindness in all the years I have been a patient there. Would definitely recommend.

Funny, I was telling a colleague the other day about my childhood memories of dental visits when growing up in New Jersey. My parents took us to what one might call a not-so-kid-friendly dentist who gave no Novocain except for extractions!

I have been coming to this office since my son was 3 and Dr. Taglianetti was still in the office. My son is now 17. The staff is friendly and professional. They welcome you with smiles and the facility is very clean. Liz and Fran are just wonderful. Dr. Maniscalco makes you feel comfortable as he explains everything to you. I actually look forward to my appointments with them and recommend them to anyone looking for a great dentist.

Dr. Maniscalco is the best dentist you will find in NYC. He is thorough, honest and does great work. He is willing to listen to all your concerns. A true professional. His staff is also superior. Neither he nor his staff will keep you waiting for long. His practice is superb in all regards. Highly recommended.

I appreciate the personal touch, it helps. A couple of times Dr. Maniscalco followed up with me after a procedure which I thought was great customer service. Also, remembering my pre-visit meds and having them available is great.

Not only is Dr. Maniscalco a straight shooter when it comes to talking about dental work…his “bedside manner” made my procedure much less awful.  The doctor answered every question I had with precision, care…and without dumbing anything down.  I felt like I was in very good hands, and pain was definitely minimized.

Also, Liz deserves praise as well…she sat down with me and explained all the costs and the insurance stuff for a good half hour, really took her time with me.

I’m glad to find a great dentist in Bay Ridge!

Dr.Joe is one of the best, the all staff is weary friendly and the office is spotless
And they taking vary seriously COVID-19 situation
one patient In time and 15 min.break for disinfecting the room

Always a pleasure to deal with the front office, the technicians and the doctors. Responsive to any issues I might have, and always willing to work with my schedule. Patient for close to 25 years.

I am a very nervous patient. Everyone (at your office) is patient and professional in taking care of me. Thank you.

Had it not been for Dr. M’s discovery of a small adhesion in my husband’s mouth, we might now be battling cancer. He is very special to us. My root canal and crown are the best I ever had.
