Dawn Gayken DDS, PLLC

Went in for an infected tooth, was mistreated, infection spread,lost a tooth, months of antibiotics and steroid use,spent about 5k on denistry and 8 k on related surgery - (after insurance!) The only person I would recommend to see her would be my worst enemy! more

I had work done last February or March. Ever since then that tooth has had an infection. NOT FUN!!! Thousands of dollars was spent for WHAT, exactly? Here it is October, and all I've gained is more pain. This is a terrible dentist. more

She may have been a good dentist years back, but now she has taken on too many patients. I saw her personal for all of 2 minutes. In addition, she is the first dentist that has wanted to pull my teeth; I'm only 24 with healthy teeth. Her staff is exceptional rude. She had closed the office for a day and all the patients had to be rescheduled. When her one of her staff called to reschedule my appointment she snapped at me for the lack of communication between their office and the office of another dentist that is currently fixing my root canal. more

I went in for 3 teeth, and to this day all 3 still hurt. Even filling a simple cavity they failed at, and their numbing shots were a joke. They were definitely my first negative experience at a dentist. I thought I was paying for A SERVICE!!! To this day I'm left wondering what the heck it is that I paid for. They gained thousands of dollars, while I gained pain that never went away, and which will only become worse untiI I can scrape up the money to find another dentist that can right this office's wrongs. It's ridiculous! Also, I inquired 2 or 3 times about their cash discount.... they never got back to me. I really cannot stress this enough. Please say no to these people. No one should go through what I went through. You've been warned. Remember... I'm talking about THREE teeth that still bother me. Not one, but THREE! more

looking for a dentist you can feel comfortable with? a staff that is friendly? this is it, although I still don't ""enjoy"" the denist, I dont absolutely dread it anymore either. Dr. Gayken is knowledgable, friendly, and always makes sure you are comfortable and know whats going on. more

She is doing an invisalign case on me. She really knew how to get it right. My family loves her. Several of my friends also go see her. Her prices are not as cheap as a big franchise clinic but I guess they are average. They have been real good about telling my how much what cost. They wrote down everything I needed and how much it cost on one sheet of paper. (they were right on when they estimated insurance). I called other offices and checked her prices and she cost may be 10% more than the average dentist. Well worth it to me and the kids love to come for the free James Coney Island hot dog and fries. You'll like her. Pros: she is good, never wait, dose not hurt Cons: , she makes you pay, can't afford veneers more
