Center For Dentistry

I have been using Dr. Frank LaBatto as my dentist for many years. His office is easy to get to, clean and up to date. He has performed a number of procedures on me over the years and I am very satisfied with his work. His staff is helpful and efficient. He has worked on my daugther as well as my mother who had some work done at 95 yrs. old and was very happy with the results. I would recommend Dr. LaBatto with no reservations whatsoever.

I had an amazing experience at Center for Dentistry. I was extremely scared of the dentist until I saw Dr. Labatto. Dr. Labatto goes by appointment only, so you don't even have to wait to go in the room! He makes you feel very comfortable and he's a very understanding person. If you are someone who does not like to go to the dentist I highly recommend Center for Dentistry!!!!!

I saw Dr. La Batto for over a year and a half. He kept pressuring me to have a permanent bridge put in to replace my temporary bridge - cost: ~$20,000 - a procedure that my previous dentist and periodontist in California had recommended against. He then performed deep cleanings three times, charging me approximately $175 per quadrant, something my previous dentist and periodontist had never done so frequently. He also proscribed a daily antibiotic which he said would help my gums.

I eventually got suspicious about the repeated root cleanings and the constant pressure to get a permanent bridge and went to see a Manhattan periodontist for a second opinion. In short, he recommended against everything Dr. La Batto had suggested, even telling me to discontinue the daily antibiotic because it was doing me no good. The periodontist had his hygienist do a complete root cleaning for half of what La Batto had charged me.

After spending thousands on treatment from Dr. La Batto, I have no intention of returning to his care. He has a great sense of humor and he makes you feel at ease, but I am reluctant to trust the health of my teeth and gums to him.
