Fantastic experience: This was my first time going to the Smilist. My friend recommended me to go as she had a great experience here. Shout-out to Kacey my hygienist. She was incredible, very knowledgeable, great conversationalist and can definitely make someone who is scared to go more at ease with her friendliness. I've gone to other dentist and they did not explain to me in detail about treatment plan as the Smilist RVC did. Will definitely be going back!

Negative experience: I was trying to get an appointment here and I received an automated text to set up an appointment so I said OK . I filled it out, and then afterwards I discovered I had to change my appointment. Turns to find out I am ‘not found in the system’. Thank God I didn’t deal with the forms like I see someone else it is 500 of those. They also don’t have appointments on Saturdays. Ridiculous. I will find a legit place to take my services.

Fantastic experience: A most professional atmosphere, along with a compassionate as well as friendly staff. Dr Funk has a manner that sets you at ease, even while sitting in that mysterious dental chair. He's talented and makes the whole process seem almost comfortable., Thanks to all!

It's wonderful to know that our team's professionalism, compassion, and friendliness made your visit comfortable. We'll be sure to pass along your kind words to Dr. Funk and the rest of our staff.

Fantastic experience: Great dental clinic. Dr. Funk is the best dentist in Rockville Centre and perhaps the best on Long Island. He is a very skilled dentist and I had 4 implants done and he did the crown and abutment. They have a net work of oral surgeons as well. I would recommend The Smilist to everyone.
Hello, thank you so much for the positive review!
Fantastic experience: Went online to make an appointment on Wednesday. Got to see the dentist Friday morning. ( The amount of forms I had to fill out was a bit ridiculous) But at least 99% of the paperwork was done before my visit. Quick, Easy, and virtually painless the doctor extracted my upper wisdom tooth. He even gave me a pain prescription for later on which I didn’t even need. Very professional and the cost was a lot less than I expected ( No Dental Insurance) My next visit will be in a few days for two cavities that need attention. I feel very confident in the dentists abilities and highly recommend the Smilest ( reminds me of “The Old Smiler” from It’s a Mad Mad World) to anyone who needs dental work done.
We’d like to thank you for your review! We try our best to provide the highest quality dental care to all our patients and are very appreciative of your feedback!

We are incredibly grateful that you took the time out to leave us this note. Reading reviews such as this make our job wonderful!
Negative experience: If you can avoid this place at all cost please do. I’ve never dealt with a dentist that is so unprofessional and money hungry. Will constantly keep saying you owe money even when you have proof everything was paid for. I haven’t been there for a few months due to an extreme surgery. So I had to pause on any treatments that was paid for ahead of time, because they kept saying no work can be done until full payment. Following this year another $490 is due after paying well over $5,000. This is including me not having no insurance. Today I visited the office July 30th, 2025 at 11:50 AM. First when I called earlier that morning to say I would be running late the women at the front desk who answered didn’t even say “Good morning” or had any welcoming acknowledgment. Then hangs up the phone. As I get there asking the questions I needed to about be over charged the lady at the front desk acted as if she didn’t want to deal with me, so we had to talk to the other women who has been there from when i first started and who was the lady to give us the bill. She kept asking for my insurance which had nothing to do with why I keep getting over charged, and work is not being done. Then decided to go back and fourth. When I said im not giving my insurance to her and not paying anymore money because they already overcharging and it’s a lot of work that has not been done. She says “Well go to the back and get billed” very nasty attitude. I do not know her name but she is the only Hispanic women who was there with a mask on. Her behavior is so disgusting. This place is money grabbers. With front desk receptionist who are very nasty and rude. Once they get your money they are very nasty afterwards. If I wasent a person with my skin color im sure I would’ve been treated way differently.
At The Smilist Dental Rockville Centre, the goal is to provide a professional and respectful environment for all patients.We’d like to thank you for your review, and we really appreciate you bringing this issue to our attention. We are looking into this and hope to resolve it promptly and accurately.
Fantastic experience: As someone who can get very anxious going to the dentist (even with very healthy teeth) the staff was so kind and Furwa went out of her way to repeatedly ensure that I was ok. The dentist Dr Basra was also great. He did not try to pressure me into unnecessary procedures as I have encountered elsewhere. Will definitely return and recommend.
We're thrilled to hear about your positive experience at The Smilist Dental Rockville Centre. It's wonderful to know that our team, including Furwa and Dr. Basra, were able to make your visit comfortable and stress-free. We appreciate your recommendation and look forward to welcoming you back for your next visit. Thank you for your kind words.
Fantastic experience: Have been traveling from Huntington to the Smilist Rockville Center for years now and still make the trip to see their Hygienist, Roberta W. who continues to do a great job keeping my teeth in excellent condition and advise on how to continue in that direction.
We would like to thank you for your review! We hope you continue to hold our practice to these high standards in the future.

Fantastic experience: Dr Funk is a great dentist. Even though I have only been to him a few times since finding him after my former dentist retired, I can tell that he is a caring and gentle dentist. He has explained different options to me for an issue in my mouth and how it would be proper to have implants to correct my problem. I highly recommend him. Update: after 2 years + with Dr Funk, he has fitted me for one partial bridge on implants (done elsewhere) and i am now in the middle of a refurbismlhment of another partial bridge. His work is excellent and he is a caring dentist.
We're thrilled to hear about your positive experience at The Smilist Dental Rockville Centre.Your recommendation means a lot to us. Thank you for sharing your feedback!
Negative experience: Avoid this place at all cost because it will literally cost you more than what they originally tell you. I went in for a procedure and made payment on the spot only to receive a bill in the mail a month later demanding more money. Place is one big scam. Never ran into this problem ever with any other medical provider.
We want to sincerely apologize if you had a negative experience, and would like to learn more about what happened. We want to make things right. Please give us a call at 516-279-2922 or email us at [email protected].
Fantastic experience: I had a great experience with Dr. Burack and her team. I was impressed by the gentle, thorough care and clear communication throughout. The visit was smooth, painless, and expertly done. What really stood out was Dr. Burack’s calm, compassionate approach—I felt genuinely cared for every step of the way. Highly recommend if you're looking for a skilled and thoughtful dentist. I actually look forward to going back!

Negative experience: If I could give zero I would. With that said paid over 500 dollars for something they said would only take two weeks over a month and half later still not complete. Now they are talking I need to go to a specialist when none of the was discussed at last appointment. They said 500 was total cost. I still have three week to next appointment. Over two months for a max two week procedure. The front desk is some the most unfriendly people around. I guess it’s a lesson learned and $500 down the drain.
It's disheartening to hear about the confusion and delay you've experienced. We are committed to continuous improvement and your feedback is valuable in this process. We also understand the importance of a welcoming environment and will continue to work on enhancing our front desk interactions. Thank you for sharing your feedback, as we want to make this right.
Fantastic experience: I was very impressed with the work Dr. Basra did. He allowed me to put my hand up to have him stop if needed/ uncomfortable at all. I have bad sinuses so the mouth holder coupled with some water going down my throat wasn't pleasant. So he let me get a breather here and there. No pain, little bit after soreness but overall a good experience. And would recommend him to others looking for a new dentist. Staff is very friendly, and his dental assistant was very helpful as well.

Fantastic experience: The team at The Smilist in Rockville Centre is amazing. I’m 57 and must say this has been the best experience I’ve ever had. I’m frightened of dentist appointments but of course I’ve always kept up with my dentist visits but Dr Jagin and her team really made my experience a pleasant one. Thanks y’all rock
Fantastic experience: I haven’t been to the dentist in many years but Roberta made my visit, not only easy but even relaxing! Can’t wait to go back and fix all my tooth problems here. I feel much better about it now! Roberta explained everything thoroughly and even had front desk give me the costs before moving forward so there were no surprises. Very pleased with my visit.
Your feedback is greatly appreciated. Thank you for taking the time to share your review. We take great pride in giving outstanding care to every patient and we're overjoyed to receive your compliments and appreciation.
Negative experience: The experience itself went well. My problem is with the billing department. I was charged 591 dollars out of pocket for a cleaning and routine checkup, was told I’d get a refund once they charged my insurance…it’s been 4 months and my insurance was charged. I’ve called and called and called for my refund, the office manager, Jennifer, is impossible to get in contact with. She refunded a random sum of 187 dollars to me a little over a week ago, been calling to see where the remaining 400 dollars is and literally no one will get back to me. If these people owe you money, good luck with getting it back.
We understand how important clear and timely communication is, especially when it comes to financial matters. We're taking your feedback seriously and will work on improving our processes. Please accept our apologies for any inconvenience caused and rest assured, we're committed to resolving this issue.

Fantastic experience: Made an appointment for the very first time, which was extremely easy because I was able to fill the forms out on line before going in and when I got there, the staff was extremely welcoming. The Dentist who cleaned my teeth was a blessing, I felt at ease and comfortable. As she worked on the cleaning she explained everything to me and when she was done I met the Dr who went over everything that needed to be done. I left there making an appointment for my son and plans to make one for my husband. Our family has found a home here. Thank God.

Fantastic experience: The Smilist Dental, Rockville Centre was highly recommended to me by my brother. When I found out that they took my insurance, I booked an appointment. I have to say… My brother was absolutely right. Like always. The doctor was so knowledgeable and explained what was going on with the problem I was having (an abscess along my gum line) in a way that was so easy to understand. And the hygienist that performed my cleaning was fabulous. Really performed a great cleaning and without any pain. The whole staff, for that matter, were so nice and helpful! I wanted to write this review to let everyone know that if you choose this group of professionals to perform your oral care needs, you will not be disappointed.

Fantastic experience: Great and friendly service from walking in the door to walking out. Dr Funk is fast, efficient and the procedures are painless.

Fantastic experience: A first time patient at this location and my experience was outstanding from start to finish. Great Parking behind the building. The facility is super neat and clean and even had some decent music playing in the lobby. As soon as I checked in I was called into the room to begin my cleaning and X-rays. The Hygienist was extremely nice and gentle. Dr. basra was also nice and gentle. Very honest with me and was able to tell me right away what treatment I needed. Highly recommend and will be a returning patient.

Negative experience: The appointment system for the Smilist is abysmal. I make appointments 6 months in advance and for the 3rd straight time, I received a text the day before my appointment(in one instance it was a day of the appointment ) and my scheduled time is changed. This time the appointment was rescheduled by over 1 hour and 20 minutes and now during the workday. I called the office to find out why my appointment was changed on such short notice and was told that because I made an online appointment that they have to "fit me in". After a 2 minute discussion about the problems of making online appointments, I had to correct the receptionist and tell her my appointment was made in person. The personnel and dentists are all nice people and execute their jobs well but the appointment system is an abject failure and hasn't been attended to for as long as I can remember. Very disappointing as the service is important and they seem to be unconcerned with the deep flaws of their booking service.
Thank you for sharing your feedback regarding the appointment system at The Smilist Dental Rockville Centre. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you've experienced with scheduling. We understand how important timely and efficient service is to our patients, and we regret that we fell short in this area. Your comments have been noted and will be used to evaluate and improve our processes. We appreciate your patience and understanding, and we're grateful for your kind words about our team despite these challenges.
Fantastic experience: I've been with the Smilist for a number of years, and rightfully so, because I always feel right at home. Its a fine facility with a very cordial staff. I'm not familiar with the "chairside" manner of all the other dentists, but if my dentist Dr. Funk is among them, I'm certain he's in great company. I've been with him before he joined The Smilist Group, and my family and I respect him highly. One of my sons was pleased with an orthodontist he was seeing there as well. So... Try them out for yourselves. I'm always commended on my smile, so there you have it. As my husband would say, "Be TRUE to your teeth or they'll be FALSE to you!" That's most important!
We’re thrilled to hear all these kind words about our practice. We really appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback and being so open with us.
Fantastic experience: I did phase 1 of my deep cleaning this morning and my Hygienist was very professional. She explained every steps to me to ease my anxiety. I will defenitly refer my friends and my family members to Smilist Dental Rockville Center ,

Fantastic experience: I absolutely love the The Smilest @ Rockville! Everytime I go they compliment my son who is on the spectrum with his Invisalign progress and allow him to be independent.

Fantastic experience: The person who did my cleaning informed me about my teeth condictions very thoroughly. She showed me concerns as a person, not as a client. I had bad expirience with other dentists and I did not know if I would want to deal with dentists again. I am very happy with The Smailist dental
Thanks for leaving us such a wonderful rating.

Thanks for leaving us such a wonderful review. We are glad to hear your kind words about our practice, and our dedicated staff will be pleased to learn of your high praise.
Negative experience: The cleanings and overall dental work was fine. The issue was they constantly try upselling EVERYTHING. Tried getting me to buy an electric toothbrush and mouth guard every time I was there even though I needed neither. They also tried to do X-rays way more than my insurance paid and would schedule appointments earlier than six months which resulted in me having to pay out of pocket. Overall the vibe seems more focused on making money than taking care of patients.

Fantastic experience: I have had the pleasure of having Dr. Basra today for the first time. Dr Basra was very professional and friendly and made me feel comfortable. Although the initial shot to numb my gums was painful but that soon went away, and I felt no pain. He was very attentive, always asking if I'm ok. I have had other Dentist at another place that absolutely did not have this caring side of them. Dr. Basra does. If anyone gets him for the first time as their dentist, rest assured you are in caring hands. Thank you so much, Dr. Basra. I love this place Smilist in Rockville center.

Positive experience: The dental Hygienist was very professional and extremly pleasant. This was my follow up appointment as they were unable to do my cleaning on my original visit as they were booked. Unfortunately I was billed for the cleaning which I was under the impression that it was included in my original visit. Other than that it was a good experience.

Fantastic experience: I had a truly positive and professional experience with your staff. Their level of care and willingness to go above and beyond with any concerns is commendable. I had the pleasure of interacting with Pauline, and I must say she exemplifies what it means to be a caring and attentive employee. In today's world, it's often challenging to seek help from customer-facing individuals who sometimes make you feel like a bother. However, my interaction with Pauline was quite the opposite; she was exceptionally helpful. I sincerely hope that your office recognizes and values the significant contribution she makes to your team.

Fantastic experience: My check up and cleaning at Smilist office could not have been any better! The main reason why is my hygienist Furwa is the best! So very careful, concerned and gentle with her patients! Do not let her go from that office, she makes it very easy to go to the dentist office.
We would like to thank you for your review! We hope you continue to hold our practice to these high standards in the future.
Fantastic experience: I have been going to The Smilist, for a few years now, and I must say without a doubt they are the best. The office and the dental rooms are extremely clean and all of the tools that are used, are sanitized. The staff are extremely warm, inviting and are very professional. Any questions or concerns they go above and beyond to answer in a timely and efficient manner. They are extremely generous with the time they spend with you, making you feel like you are the only one there, and making sure that you leave happy and satisfied with the experience you had that day, which is so very refreshing when so many businesses out their don’t give you the level of service that goes above and beyond where you walk away so extremely pleased and happy like The Smilist gives you. I have experienced this firsthand each and every time. I want to thank the whole staff at The Smilist for all that you have done for me and my daughter, we could not have been any happier for all that you have done for us, it is very much appreciated. I also want to give a very special thank you to a truly wonderful person who always welcomed me, took the time to listen to any concerns if any that I had, and graciously and patiently answered any questions that I had, all the while making sure I was comfortable and taken care of. Her name is Furwa, and honestly I can’t say enough amazing things about her, and equally I can’t thank her enough. Furwa’s caring nature and glowing personality, makes you feel comfortable and at ease when your getting work done, She always goes above and beyond to not only make sure you had a pleasant visit, but she is the type of person that truly cares and wants you to walk out of The Smilist with a happy outlook on your day and on your life. I can’t thank Furwa enough for all that she has done for me, and I ask management to recognize Furwa for the exceptional job that she does, as well as the exceptional person that she is. All of the staff at The Smilist, are truly wonderful and caring people who go above and beyond, and I could never see myself going anywhere else. Honestly they are truly the best and way above the rest.

Fantastic experience: Coming from some really bad dental experiences, this time was a great experience. I didn't feel like I was getting wheeled and dealed as soon as i sat down. Dr. Barsa was a calming and knowledgeable Dentist, he gave me options and didn't try to give me extra work or make me feel bad for not keeping up with the work I knew i needed. The dental Asst. Carmen was wonderful! I will be going back and making this office my new dental place!

Fantastic experience: Roberta is a fabulous dental technician, who has meticulously surveyed and cleaned my mouth and teeth over the last couple of years. When I discussed the role of Covid with Roberta, she explained to me she spent two months establishing protocol for working with patients and staff. This was impressive to me! Her work, along with my dentist Dr. Arnold Funk are an unbeatable Dental Team. I highly recommend them both. The new Laser procedure has helped improve the condition of my gums. To me , this leading technology is critically important in the ongoing battle to keep my dental health on an upward path. JFP
