Negative experience: Worst experience ever!!! Jennifer Davila the Office manager at Central Ave dental of valley stream is either incompetent and or a scammer. I suspect fraudulent activity by this office. When Jennifer said good luck on getting reimbursed I thought it meant from insurance company. But, to my surprise, Jennifer also put in a claim for reimbursement from insurance company. In which they received and cashed the check from insurance company. So they have a total of two payments and I’m still getting excuses for me not getting reimbursement from Central Ave Dental. I WOULD not and Will not recommend any of my friends, family and co- workers at the fire department to participate with this dental practice.
Negative experience: Crown to root canal real quick, painful infection after, and somehow they think upselling an implant for my missing tooth is okay— don't claim l'm not in your records like you tell others.
Negative experience: The dentist was rushed and unfocused, which caused a bad infection and a swollen face for a week-coming back was a total nightmare they trying to make excuses from what happened to my infection. Felt the focus was more on payment than on my dental health. ♀️➡️♀️➡️♀️➡️♀️➡️
Fantastic experience: Great experience at Central Avenue Dental. Checked in and was seen expeditiously. Vanessa was gentle and took care of my cleaning. Would recommend going back to Vanessa for any future checkups.

Fantastic experience: Wow! This dental office is so awesome!! They do a very thorough and detailed exam. They did not make me feel uncomfortable at all while dealing with my teeth and treatment plan. The technology is so up to date and the office itself is very beautiful. The staff at the front desk is so sweet and welcoming. Sebastian and my dental hygienist Kareene (beautiful lady in the pic) were so great!! They took their time with my xrays and cleaning. Kareene gave me great advice and recommendations for my dental health and kept me comfortable throughout the cleaning process! Dr. Espinosa was also a very wonderful person! She did a very good job with my fillings and was very gentle. Im so happy she got rid of the stains from having braces when i was younger!! Her care and all the staff, is what makes this dentist office worth going to! Thanks for the great experience!!! See you all soon !! Xoxo

Fantastic experience: OMG, I’m sooo happy I selected this practice for my dental care. First off, the place is impeccable with the decor and cleanliness. I was seen within 10-15 mins after check-in. The staff is TOP NOTCH as they ALL were friendly, patient and knowledgeable. I was taken care of by Nadine, Vanessa and Dr. Igor (owner). I left feeling confident that my oral care was in the best of hands.

Negative experience: Went in for braces a couple years ago, I told the dentist I had jaw locking issues and had a overbite, now that I’m educated a little more I had a class 2 bite and my jaw was misaligned. Dentists should know these things though. Instead of referring me to an actual ortho. This new graduate dentist pressured me into getting Invisalign. I was about 19 and didn’t know, but I also knew myself and I wasn’t going to put Invisalign in everyday especially if it’s painful, so I trusted him and low behold, I wasted $6000. He knew I wasn’t wearing them bc you can tell my teeth weren’t right. Please people know the difference between an orthodontist and a general dentist, and don’t let these people take your money while being lazy when it comes to your teeth.
Hello, we value every feedback to always maintain highest quality of care. Upon conducting an investigation into the matter, we couldn't find any patient having the treatment you have described. However, objectively speaking patient compliance is very important whether treatment is done by orthodontist or general dentist. Hope everything works out for you. We wish you well.
Fantastic experience: The staff were very couteus & informative. Dr Espinosa was great & and appreciates all her expertise & she is a fantastic dentist. She explained everything & does make me as a patient feel at ease . I have more work to be done & I am grateful to have Dr Espinosa as my dentist . The new hygenist Denise is great , really caring , kind & does great work . She is very informative about taking care of my teeth . The new office looks Fantastic .

Negative experience: Today before going to Central Ave Dental I called to schedule an appointment and asked how much the bill will be, the receptionist stated $50 same as my last visit and that I can come in at 2:00 pm, I agreed and showed up at 1:24 pm. Same receptionist checked me in andI asked should I pay now or after, she said after. They took me in, sat me down, put the tissue around my neck and have me waited for a good 10 mns, which I knew they were going to send someone to talk to me about money. The $50 went to $250, a manger came in to explain the same thing, I said why didn't the receptionist mentioned it when I specifically asked how much will everything cost before scheduling any appointments. The $250 went to $71, then when the Doctor did the procedure, she was advising me what to work on my next visit, I quickly said "I used to love coming here, I referred friends, but sorry after todays experience, I no longer want to be a patient at Central Avenue Dental" Doctor wanted to go and find out why her patient was unhappy, I said "please don't bother the damage is already done. When I went to the receptionist, she said "$96.00" I said call the manager lady out here which is it? $50, $250, $71, or $96 she went to the back spoke with the Doctor and said $71. I paid the $71 and will NEVER return to Central Avenue Dental, very disappointed. The receptionist should have looked at everything when she pulled up my name.
Hello Dorothy, we are very sorry there was so much confusion about the copay you had to pay. Sometimes copay can change if something additional was done in addition. That should've been discussed with you prior continuation of treatment. Our apologies for that. I would welcome you to call the office at 5168870020 and discuss the matter with me personally to remedy the situation. We try to be as transparent as possible and provide highest quality care in clean and friendly atmosphere. Please let me know if I can be of service.
Dr Igor Ilyabayev DDS
Positive experience: Front desk staff needs to gain clarity as to what patient needs are before booking appointments. I don’t need to feel as though this is a financial consultation when leaving or upsold on any service.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. Our team works hard to schedule visits based on the information provided at the time of booking, and we are always looking for ways to improve how we communicate with those seeking care.
While we strive to complete as much treatment as possible in our office, there are times when a referral to a specialist is necassary to ensure the highest level of care.
Regarding treatment discussions, our goal is never to upsell services, but rather to ensure patients are fully informed about their oral health and any recommended care. We do our best to explain all options and any associated costs transparently, so patients can make the decisions that are right for them.
We appreciate your perspective and will use it to continue improving our communication and patient experience. If you’d like to speak with us directly, we welcome the opportunity to connect further.

Fantastic experience: Ritchie, Denise, Dr. Espinosa were amazing! They made my experience one that I would love to have again. I walked in and met Ritchie, he brought the light into the room. I got 2 fillings today and it was very nerve racking. When I tell you, Denise was the person I needed to calm me down. He was a God sent! And my doctor, you can tell she was caring and extremely detailed. The place is being run like a champ. I highly recommend! Best of luck
