“Professional, perfectionist, and patient!”

Dr O transformed my mouth from the beast to the beauty. My teeth were broken, decayed, loose and horrific looking. Dr O was able to save a lot of teeth. I had many extractions and several root canals. Dr O's calm and reassuring manner helped me get over my fear of dentists. Today....I CAN SMILE!

“Fenominal Dentist”

I brought my mother to Bellmore Family Dental because her bridge came out. Dr. Oglesby was very thorough in explaining what treatment my mother needed. He was able to give us options on treatment and made sure that my mother was not in pain during the procedure. She had a brand new bridge placed in 2 weeks and has been very comfortable. He made sure that the fit was correct with a follow up visit. i will be bringing her back for future visits. the staff is very knowledgeable and nice.

“The staff was very professional, thorough, and made me feel comfortable”

When I first called around to find a new dentist I was very stressed out. I needed a lot of work in my mouth and I knew it was a big decision on who I was going to let work on me to get my smile and confidence back. Amy was so sweet and caring as to attend to my needs and I was immediately at ease with her. Dr. O was so compassionate to my needs and present all my options that were available to me and not for one minute did I feel pressure to make a decision on the major work that I needed to have done. I had a bridge that was failing my lower canines were coming forward there were gaps and my teeth were yellow. I agreed to have 20 veneers done and I was thrilled with the results and I now have my confidence back and I can smile once again without constantly worrying about how my teeth look.

“Made a potentially painful and extensive process a breeze and painless.”

Dr. Oglesby was very professional in all aspects of the job. I was afraid that I would need much more extensive and expensive procedures.. Got away with nothing more than a very deep filling = and didn't even feel a thing.

Dr. L. owns the practice. He cares for his patients as to not cause them any discomfort. He will also inform his patients if they need to see another doctor in the practice if further treatment is necessary that he doesn't feel he should do.

“A Wonderful Dental Experience”

I love going to this dentist office because they are very professional and friendly. They explain everything to you and only tell you to do the things you need to do. They are very understanding and their office is very clean. The staff is very kind and helpful. I had a lot of dental work done at this office and I can't imagine going anywhere else. I also had invisalign done at this office. They explained everything step by step and there was no pressure to do anything. I love my teeth and so many people give me compliments. If you were thinking of getting it I would go to Dr. Efron and make an appointment. He was amazing! He always made feel comfortable and he was very thorough. What is the best , is that I didn't have to go to a different office. Dr. Efron is my dentist and he did the invisalign. It was a win win all around!

“Amazing work!”

I came in to have a cap put on a tooth, but while speaking with Dr. Efron I mentioned I may want to pursue an implant on the tooth behind it. Dr. Hofer came in soon after and advised me he could not only extract the tooth but insert the implant the same day. Minutes later he was working on my extraction. I was amazed at how he was able to numb the area enough that I essentially only felt pressure in the area. He does wonderful work, and I would recommend him to anyone considering coming to Bellmore Family Dental.

“Excellent Dentist!”

I came to Dr. M a year ago seeking nicer teeth. Clean, professional office. Meeting Liz, office manager made me feel comfortable and felt confident to move forward. Dr M is direct and honest from the beginning, and just the best. Teeth cleanings, healthy gums a must and in the interum teeth are being made, meticulous in his craft going the extra mile for perfection. I love them all, I'd never go anywhere else. Thank you Doc for what I'm waiting a lifetime to happen. That's my dentist!

I have never had a dentist so concerned to make sure I was comfortable and aware that I was in good hands. Very knowledgeable and fair. After getting work done I never have any pain or discomfort.

I am extremely pleased with the excellent dental care my five children and I receive at Bell Family Dental. Dr. O
has been preparing me for the possibility of getting upper dentures. He compatiently explains each step at every visit. I never mind keeping a dental appointment because of the caring staff. Dr. O takes such pride in his dental work. My 17 year old daughter, had extensive root canals under the care of Dr. O . The crowns that she received
give my daughter a beautiful smile.

“Happy smile ”

Dr. Oglesby re did my veneers on my front tooth that I originally had done at another dentist. He prepped and temped my front teeth and the temps looked great so i wasn't embarrassed to walk in temps until my veneers came in. Once my veneers came in he was super meticulous about the way they looked with my smile. I loved them right away and was so happy with the result. Dr. O was wonderful and made me feel extremely comfortable. I would definitely recommend him at bellmore family dental.

“Dr. O is truly one of a kind!!”

When I met Dr. O I could tell I have finally found the dentist I've been looking for since in my early 20's/ As a 59 year old woman I have always had bad teeth & always hated the look of my teeth. Dr. O realized so many things that were bothering me that I didn't realize were a result of my teeth! I was grinding my teeth so bad that my jaws were killing me by the end of the day - the snap in denture for my bottom teeth made my gums so irritable I wanted to rip it out by 5:00pm!!.

Dr. O explained how and why!! For almost 40 years I feel I have found my "Prince of a Dentist". I say this because Dr. O is very caring and understanding with his patients. He made me feel like he was going to do everything in his power "no matter what" to "make me smile again". How ironic is that?

Dr. O also explains and gives you choices with ever appointment and procedure that is being done. I would recommend Dr. O to anyone male-female-young-old etc. If you want to go to a dentist to fix your teeth or maintain your oral health - go to Bellmore Family Dental - see Dr. Chris Oglesby - meet the very professional & knowledgeable staff who help in any way they can. You know that that say "You're only as good as your co-workers and staff! So make the call - you will not be sorry. I'm not!

PS - They have the nicest hand soap in the bathroom - always! It's the little touches that show you how the picture comes together!

“My dental experience”

I had to have a front crown put in and was very nervous about it matching color and size wise. I was considering having both front teeth done to ensure it would match but Dr. Joe gave me his honest opinion that we could make it happen without having to do both. He was absolutely right. Not only was the color perfect the size was exactly the same. I couldn't be happier with the results. Now instead of hiding behind a half smile I can be me again and smile from my eyes.
