Was really scared about going to the dentist for a long time, but Oakwood Dental in Staten Island has made me feel completely comfortable even though I'm still a bit nervous.

Been going to Nicole for my cleanings at Oakwood Dental in Staten Island for over five years now, and she's absolutely amazing. She's always so thorough and gentle, plus she makes sure I'm comfortable and know what's going on. Dr. Kamil and Dr. Lehal are excellent too—I actually enjoy my visits here! If you're looking for a dentist in Staten Island, I highly recommend this place for their pediatric dentistry and general care.
Hi John, thank you for your loyalty over the years at Oakwood Dental in Staten Island. We're thrilled Nicole and our doctors have made your visits positive. We appreciate your recommendation and look forward to continuing your care with our pediatric dentistry and other services.
Excellent overall experience, but I was disappointed they didn't have any "no cavity" (etc) stickers, nor any freebies (toothbrush, toothpaste etc.)

Honestly, my visit to Oakwood Dental on Richmond Ave in Staten Island was fantastic. I showed up early and was waiting outside, but the receptionist heard me and actually opened the door to let me in right away—such a nice gesture that made me feel truly welcome from the start. Ms. Nicole treated me with so much professionalism and courtesy during my teeth cleaning, and everyone there was just super kind and polite. Couldn't be happier with how it went, and I'd definitely tell other people in Staten Island to check them out for dental care.

Update: Just as I thought, I got sick a few days later. This place in Staten Island doesn't follow proper hygiene, and I bet I'm not the only one it's happened to—I'm just speaking up. Initial review: First time ever that my mouth felt dirtier after a cleaning. Reason: The guy who let me in also did my x-rays without changing his gloves from touching the door. Really disappointed with the emergency dental care here.
We're sorry to hear about your experience at Oakwood Dental in Staten Island. We take hygiene seriously and will review our protocols to ensure this doesn't happen again. Thank you for bringing this to our attention regarding your emergency dental care visit.

Had an excellent visit with Dr. Ruggeri at Oakwood Dental in Staten Island. Everyone's super welcoming and nice, plus the office is extremely clean and professional. Dr. Ruggeri was very clear and precise with my root canal treatment—I've been going here for years and always get treated kindly and professionally. Definitely a top choice for endodontics in Staten Island.
Hi Kathy, thank you for your review of Oakwood Dental in Staten Island. We're delighted Dr. Ruggeri and our team have provided consistent care over the years, especially with your root canal. We appreciate your trust and look forward to seeing you again!
Got treated with so much kindness and professionalism by Nicole and Samantha at Oakwood Dental in Staten Island today. They made me feel so at ease that I'm actually planning to come back for a deep cleaning—that's how much trust I have in them. As someone who's always scared of dentistry, I've had nothing but great experiences here in Staten Island.
Hello Deborah, thanks for your kind words about Nicole and Samantha at Oakwood Dental in Staten Island. We're glad we could help with your dental fears and look forward to your deep cleaning visit. Appreciate you taking the time to share this!
I could not be more thankful for Gina, Dr Simi & all the staff at Oakwood Dental Arts by the mall!!
1 day before my bachelorette weekend, I woke up in extreme pain and was so scared I would need a extraction or root canal. I had no insurance (mine started the week after) due to my new job. I was so scared my weekend would be ruined in bed - crying in pain.
Gina got me an emergency appointment the same day, I came in and was shocked how beautiful and clean it is. The paperwork was online and quick. I didn’t even sit down before I was called in. Dr Simi, she is a breath of fresh air. Young, smart, empathetic, and understood my situation with not having insurance and the fact my party was the next day !
Thankfully I just needed a filling. She was so gentle I didnt even feel the shot 🤣 now that’s great !!! I was nervous about the payment but I was instantly relieved, they charge very reasonable.
Do not hesitate go to Oakwood. Anyone who has something “negative” is the problem 🤣✌🏼✌🏼✌🏼
Hi Caitlin!
We hope you really enjoyed your bachelorette weekend?! We are delighted to hear you had a positive experience at our practice with Gina, Dr Simi and the entire team. We are grateful for your kind review, thank you.
Best of luck with your new job too!
Been a patient for many years at both the New Jersey and Staten Island locations, and my whole family loves it here at the Richmond Ave spot in Staten Island. Dr. Kamil is wonderful, patient, and kind—he did amazing work on my fillings and night guard. When my daughter had a wisdom teeth emergency, they took her right in. Gina at the front desk is so personable and helpful, and Nicole, Gianna, and Emma are gentle hygienists. Wonderful staff, clean office, and always on time for orthodontics and more.
Hi Claudia, thank you for your kind words about our Richmond Ave location in Staten Island. We're glad Dr. Kamil and our team, including Gina and the hygienists, have cared for your family with orthodontics and emergencies. We appreciate your loyalty and look forward to many more visits!
Got excellent service at Oakwood Dental in Staten Island—warm greeting from the staff and no wait at all. I broke a tooth with a wire sticking out from an old crown, and the dentist removed it immediately, then explained my options clearly. Very satisfied with the emergency dental care I received and would recommend this practice in Staten Island.

Hi Sabrina. We appreciate this so much! Thank you for your thorough review.
Called the make an emergency appointment, within 2 days I was in with Dr Z. Very nice man! Will definitely be switching over to them to be my new dentist. Staff is super friendly.
