100x better than Eastern Dental in Brick! I Was not satisfied with Eastern Dentals level of service and organization. I went to Smilist, and it’s a night and day difference. The Staff at Smilist is pleasant and friendly. My hygienist was awesome. She gave me tips no other hygienist gave me before. The doctor was pleasant and helpful. Overall, a great experience.

I wasn't happy with my dentist, so I decided to call Encore Dental in Brick, NJ. I'm so glad I found them. All front desk employees are so nice. From x-rays, and the hygienist. My dentist was great as well as the surgeon I met with. Every one is so professional. They are so up with new technology and have great ways to give you a better smile.

During one of the hardest emotional periods of my life, she helped me find the positive—and that’s something I’ll never forget. Her
