Dr. Gentile was highly-skilled and refreshingly pleasant to talk to. Overall, I had an excellent experience at Gentile Dental Care and wouldn't hesitate to come back!

I’ve had a phenomenal experience at Gentile Dental Care. The staff is beyond amazing. We are relatively new patients. At our recent cleaning appointment, we got the best care possible, much better than what we’d received from our former dentist. Gentile Dental Care is the best place for our dental needs.

Dr. Gentile and her staff at Gentile Dental Care are the best in Massapequa. The office staff is inviting and kind. The hygienists are highly-skilled and well-trained. I’d previously had a dentist take advantage of me by pressuring me to get services I didn’t really need. Dr. Gentile is different. I can't recommend her enough!

My elderly father lives in an assisted living facility and hasn’t worn his bottom dentures in 3 years because of how much they hurt him. Other dentists we went to couldn’t get it to fit correctly and pain-free. He isn’t ambulatory, so we needed a dentist willing to take special precautions. Dr. Gentile came to the rescue. She fixed the problem and continued to check on him. He later broke one of the front teeth of his dentures. Dr. Gentile fixed that too. She was able to take the impression and get it to the lab and repaired on the same day. She has the best bedside manner I’ve seen, and her rates are reasonable. I couldn’t recommend her more.

After getting a painful tooth infection, I needed a dentist quickly. I seared online and found Dr. Donna Gentile. Her receptionist was able to fit me in that very same day. Everyone was kind and calm. It turned out that I needed a root canal. I felt prepared for the procedure because of how thoroughly Dr. Gentile explained everything. She made sure I was comfortable before proceeding. My teeth are fantastic now. I’m thrilled to have found such an accomplished and skilled dentist.

I’ve received regular cleanings from Gentile Dental Care every six months for multiple years. Dr. Gentile is wonderful She doesn’t try to pressure you into unnecessary work. The hygienist who does my cleanings is kind and professional. She does a great job fielding questions. If I weren’t moving to another state soon, I’d be a lifelong patient at Gentile Dental Care. They care about what they do, and I trust them immensely.

I can’t say enough good things about Gentile Dental Care. I found Dr. Gentile through online reviews and have been back twice. The care is always excellent. They surpass expectations. The entire staff is extraordinarily informative when it comes to dental health. The office is clean and cozy. The decor is cool too. They are also kid-friendly. I live the panoramic x-rays. Thankfully, they were able to refer me to an oral surgeon to have my wisdom teeth removed. Go check out Dr. Gentile. You won’t regret it.

It’s difficult to go back to a dentist after you’ve had bad experiences with a previous one. In my case, I chose Dr. Gentile to help ease back into my dental work. So far the experience has been nothing short of excellent. There was a short period of time where I had different insurance, but I changed back so I could keep going to Dr. Gentile. I’m so happy with my teeth.

I found Gentile Dental Care while searching for a new dentist close to my house in Massapequa. It was evident from the first time I called that the office staff is very kind. They helped me arrange everything. On my first visit, my hygienist eased my anxiety. Dr. Gentile also saw me that day, and I was immediately impressed with how personable she is. She reviewed all my X-rays and decided I could have my wisdom teeth removed in the office at a later visit; I was grateful because I didn’t want to go to an oral surgeon. She informed me about what to expect with the surgery and was very patient. She really wanted me to be comfortable before we proceed. I know her time is valuable, so I was grateful for the personalized care. I would highly recommend Gentile Dental Care. it's a very welcoming and pleasant place to get your teeth worked on.

I’d been to the same dentist for 18 years but I moved and needed to switch practices. I consulted online reviews and chose Dr. Gentile. The receptionist was incredibly kind and was able to schedule me for an appointment two days later. After arriving for my appointment, I didn’t have to wait long at all before being called back. The staff put me at ease and talked me through every part of the process. I had to go back two weeks later for fillings, and everyone remembered me. I was so nervous that I was visibly shaking. Dr. Gentile helped me relax and made me feel like I was a lifelong patient. I couldn’t recommend her more.

Dr. Donna Gentile is a kind, meticulous dentist. The hygienists at Gentile Dental Care are excellent too. I’ve had multiple dentists in various regions of the country, and Dr. Gentile tops them all. She doesn’t try to pressure you or upsell you, which is nice.

I’m a terrible patient at times, but Dr. Gentile and her staff were so kind during my first visit. Because of my dental phobia, I was given a referral to a sedation dentist to take care of all my needs in one visit. I’m grateful Dr. Gentile recognized my needs and made the referral so that I could have my toothache resolved. I may not have had work done, but I’d recommend them because of how well they treated me when I was there.

Dr. Donna Gentile has set the bar high for other dentists in the Massapequa area. In addition, she has treated my daughter with the care and expertise one would expect from someone of her caliber. I cannot recommend Dr. Gentile and her team more highly.

After my first visit, I left feeling well informed and confident about my dental health. I received a call from Dr. Gentile after my appointment for sealants yesterday, and she made sure I was doing well. That was very unexpected; her character is extremely positive! Finding this office close to home was outstanding, and I highly recommend Gentile Dental Care!

Gentile Dental Care is very nice, clean, and comfortable; everything is brand new. seems very knowledgeable and shows interest in her patients. The hygienist was very gentle, unlike others I’ve been to. The office staff was very good at providing me an estimate for their services, so I wasn’t shocked by the total cost when checking out. I highly recommend this facility for someone seeking dental care.

I recently moved to Massapequa, so I knew I needed a new dentist. I chose Dr. Gentile because of the convenient location of her office. The staff greeted me and gave me a tour. Then I met my hygienist. She took photos of my mouth with some very high-tech equipment. I appreciated that she informed me about each step of the process. She even gave me some tips to keep my teeth and gums healthy. She explained everything about my X-rays tooth by tooth. Overall, I found her to be very helpful and pleasant. I was also very impressed with Dr. Gentile. I met with her after the hygienist was done. Overall, the experience was much better than I could have expected. They were so kind and informative. I like that they communicate through text and email to remind you of upcoming appointments. It makes things so much easier. Dental health is very important, so go see Dr. Gentile about your teeth and gums.

I have visited eight different dentists for various reasons, and Dr. Donna Gentile is the first I’ve actually respected and adored. I shattered an old crown this past weekend; the receptionist scheduled me for an appointment and told me what the price would average out to be. After the appointment, I was charged less than expected, because once he got in there, she didn’t need the build up. I loved the honesty. Dr. Gentile did a wonderful job explaining things as we went along, too. I would highly recommend her Massapequa practice.

The Gentile Dental Care dentist office has a wonderful atmosphere. The receptionist, hygienist, the office staff, and Dr. Gentile are all friendly and compassionate. I dislike going to the dental office, but they make the experience as pleasant as possible. I cannot thank you enough. I’d especially like to give a shout out to my hygienist. She was excellent!

The staff is amazing; they are caring and thorough. To anyone in the Massapequa area, I couldn’t recommend Gentile Dental Care more. I was never kept waiting, and Dr. Gentile was very kind. She also always checked to make sure I wasn’t in pain, which I never was.

I have a strong fear of dentists that stems from negative past experiences. However, once I moved to the Massapequa area, I couldn’t put off going to the dentist any longer. I needed a cavity filled. The customer service you receive is exceptional. Dr. Gentile and her staff tell you everything that is happening before it happens so that you feel more in control. They were also very compassionate. I was thankful that they’d gotten me in for a next-day appointment. What more could you ask for?

The staff is kind; the ladies at the front were personable and sincere as they welcomed me. I wish I could remember the dental assistant’s name because she was absolutely wonderful. Dr. Gentile and the assistants explained every detail of the procedure and what my options were, which made me feel respected and valued.

Dr. Gentile’s practice is great. I was looking for a new dentist, and I’m so glad I found her. The receptionists made scheduling an appointment over the phone a positive experience. I didn’t have to wait in the waiting room. Dr. Gentile is very inviting and positive, and appointment with her is great from start to finish. She gave me detailed explanations, which reduced my stress. I’d recommend her to anyone I know.

I have known Dr. Gentile for a few years since moving to the Massapequa, NY area because I came here for some other medical treatments. I live just a bit away from the Gentile Dental Care clinic, but I don’t mind the drive for the quality of care that I have received. I have plenty of experience at the dentist office. I found the quality of work and customer service very impressive that I was compelled to say something about it. I was so comfortable during my extensive work. I would recommend Dr. Gentile to anyone. I am still a work in progress, but I could not be happier.

I cannot stand dental appointments, but now that I have come to Gentile Dental Care, I can put that fear in the past. The administrative staff and dental hygienist worked together to determine which preventative procedures my insurance company would pay for; that was fantastic. The suite was clean and inviting, not sterile. I have already referred my fiancé to this amazing dental office.

I started seeing Dr. Donna Gentile a while back and not once have I had a problem. She always has concern for my well-being and comfort; for example, one time I chuckled, and they immediately pulled their hands and instruments out of my mouth because they thought they hurt me. Dr. Gentile tells you every step and helps you make an informed decision. She also cracks jokes that are never inappropriate. Overall, I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a new dentist.

Due to a lack of care from myself and other dentists in the Oyster Bay area, NY, I came to Dr. Gentile needing a lot of dental work done. She came up with a treatment plan for me and explained it completely before he did any work, wanting to make sure I understood everything. I came out of that year-long treatment plan with healthy gums and teeth, and an awesome smile. Dr. Gentile and her staff are caring and knowledgeable. I have referred a few people to her already but will continue to do so.

I was honestly very surprised by how nice everyone in the office, including Dr. Gentile, was. I thought it had to be fake, no one can be that nice, but then I came back and realized it wasn’t fake at all. They are super respectful and kind. They treat you like a human being rather than just another person to make money off of. Dr. Gentile is very knowledgeable and doesn’t make you pay for unnecessary dental work. She makes you feel like you’re at home, and she's very polite. Best dentist in Massapequa.

She is very kind, and it’s a great thing to have your dentist actually know what’s going on in your life. You’re not just another body in the chair to her. The dental hygienists and office ladies are always wonderful as well. I”m very happy with Dr. Gentile and her staff, they make going to the dentist an enjoyable experience.
