What Our Patients Say About Us
My almost 3 year old had her first appointment with Dr. Joe today and it couldn’t have gone better. He was so patient and explained everything to her as he did it. Everyone who worked there was so welcoming and sweet! My daughter had so much fun and it was a great experience, she even wanted to stay and play afterwards!

Dr. Basilicato and his entire team is incredible!!! We have been bringing our girls here for years and they always take such great care of us. They provide details on their progress and make sure their yearly appointment is scheduled. They make going to the dentist a fun experience. I highly recommend!!!! 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻

It was our first dental visit and was better than expected with a 1-year-old. The staff was very nice, and they made my little one comfortable. The hygienist and the doctor explained to us in detail how to take care of the little teeth so we can have a good smile.
I recommend them.

We always receive such good service and care at Dr Joe's office! They are so good with my kids which isnt always easy with a 3 year old who doesnt want to open his mouth!
— Jennifer S.
Phenomenal first dentist experience for our 15 month old. Incredibly welcoming office and staff. They took their time getting our child comfortable and let him see/hold all of the tools they’d be using, but then worked quickly to minimize time he’d need to sit still.
— Chelsea O.
Took my daughter to the office for her first ever dental visit. She did great. The staff was kind, welcoming and understanding. They made my toddler feel great and took away any fear. She’s already looking forward to her next appointment in February. A special thank you to Ms. Karen and Dr. Joe :)

Fantastic experience every time! Dr. Joe and the staff are amazing and so helpful! I couldn't ask for a better dentist to care for my daughter's dental health!
— Anthony P.
Dr. Joe and his staff are wonderful. They eased my daughters nerves, talked her through the whole procedure and stopped whenever she needed it. We've been going there since her first dentist visit and she's 16 now. I can't recommend them enough!
— Jen C.
Great experience at this dentist. My 6 year old son had a bad tooth that must of gotten infected. It was a Saturday and I felt that he could not wait till Monday. They took us in that day and xrays confirmed infection and his tooth needing removal . Doctor and staff was very compassionate to my sons needs. I recommend
