Peggy N. from Bronx, NY (Source: Yelp)

My daughter went to Dr. Li, and I can’t begin to tell you how accommodating her front desk team and assistant were to us. They followed all proper COVID protocols, and the establishment was clean and quiet, and no wait. My daughter explained her past experiences with another traumatic dentist, and to top it all off; the dentist misdiagnosed my daughter the caused her fear of going back. Dr. Li took a thorough review of my daughter’s dental and medical history and shared step by step what the visit will entail. She talked my daughter through every part of the visit, and we were delighted. Dr. Li’s bedside manners are unlike any dentist I have ever encountered – she’s professional and personable at the same time. I even recommended my eldest son take her on as his dentist, and he has an appointment tomorrow. The whole family will be going to Dr. Li.

Dr. Wen Li is a wonderful dentist! She is a great listener and makes sure to address any concerns. She knows what she is doing and has a strong network of skilled specialist she is connected to. I have been going here for years and was so grateful to be back after 2020 pandemic life, knowing I was going to be in good hands.

I’m very happy I went to Dr. Wen Li- Cavallos office. The staff are extremely friendly, its neat and clean I felt comfortable. They gave me a through cleaning and my teeth felt a lot better. I have more appointments so I am looking forward to being in their care again! Thank you!

Anna S. from Los Angeles, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

We were visiting NYC and staying at hotel down the street when my mom broke her front tooth. Called around and no one would help us. Finally called this office and they were super friendly and took us in and out my mom’s tooth back on so that we could continue with our trip. Dr. Was super nice, honest and professional. Office was clean. Would recommend.

R F. from New York, NY (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Dr. Wen Li-Cavallo was great. My cleaning was the most painless I’ve ever had; she explained that it was because she moves quickly before the nerves have time to react. She also took the time to explain my dental condition, pointing out issues but assuring me that they could be solved with self-care, rather than trying to scare me into treatment plans. I walked out with a nifty toothbrush package and a happy mouth. PROS: Weekend hours; minimal wait time; careful work; great bedside manner. CON: the entryway and office are outdated (for those who mind that sort of thing).

There are no words to describe how happy i am with the service that i have gotten from Dr Li-Cavallo and her team, from day one they have made me feel super comfortable as anyone can relate dentist trips arent always fun. Dr Li- Cavallo and her team will make you are always taken care of during your visits. I’m just glad that i found Bella Dental and i will forever be grateful that they are part of my dental makeover or like Dr Li said “dental take over” THANK YOU SO MUCH GUYS! (:

★★★★★

I absolutely Love Dr. LI and the staff. Everyone is so friendly and makes you feel so comfortable. Dr. Li knows her stuff!!!! I went in with a damaged crown from a crappy job done by a prior dentist, she not only fixed it but did it painlessly. They ensured I was covered and handled everything all I had to do was show up. I recently moved about 1.5 hours away and didn’t even think of finding a closer dentist, I would not leave Dr. Li for anything, that’s how happy I am. So glad I found Bella dental !!!

Dr. Wen Li-Cavallo is the best dentist I’ve ever seen. She is personable, professional and caring. She will make sure that you don’t feel pain. My issue is front desk. I left before because there is always one that is rude, dismissive, not friendly, and communication skills needs improving. I would rather have a child than to go to the dentist, so every detail matters.Today I spoke with Eva (front desk) every description above is what I received. Then tells me the new policy is 2 cancellations and you can no longer be a patient, thanks for the update. I wish Eva’s bedside manners was like her Boss.

Sandra K. from Brooklyn, NY (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

She is amazing. She took the time to explain what was going on and has a real gentle touch. She uses some kind of cool pain wand that helps avoid the terrible needle for numbness. I had a root canal expertly done by her and she repaired a broken half tooth. She is patient, warm and kind. Her chair side manners are just wonderful. I am recommending everyone I know to go to her. It is a warm family environment and I feel so well taken care of and I love how clean and bright her office is!

Lihong Y. from Brooklyn, NY (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Dr. Li is my long-time dentist and friend, I became her patient about 9 years ago when she was still a dental school student. She is excellent at what she does, and she is a very caring and responsible person. She accommodates patients’ needs as much as she can, and she always calls to follow up after treatments. One thing I appreciate the most is that she never overbooks, so that I never wait long or worry that she would rush on me. Highly recommend to everyone, she will take good care of your teeth!

Julie W. from Brooklyn, NY (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

After reading so many great reviews, I was so sure this place was too good to be true! If anyone is more afraid of the dentist, its me. Dr. Li Cavallo is an amazing Dentist. I was petrified to come in for my appointment, but when I got there the entire staff was so warm and friendly, I felt like I had a whole support team there with me. I’ve had really bad experiences with the Dentist and try to push off my routine visits. After this visit with Dr. Li, I actually look forward to my next cleaning without being afraid and canceling. This was my least painful dental experience ever. I will be following her where ever she goes, She is amazing!!

★★★★★

Dr. Li and her staff are incredibly attentive, kind, and professional. Kitty at the front desk is very quick and smart, she assists you almost immediately. I have been to over 10 dentists in the NYC area and Dr. Li is by far the best. She’s courteous, quick witted, and friendly. Most of all, the procedures were completely painless. Her expertise is top notch and the office is very comfortable. I finally found a dentist that I will be going to for probably the rest of my life!

Jon Y. from KNICKERBOCKER, NY (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Great service as usual, 5 stars all around. Dr. Li-Cavallo is one of the most professional, knowledgeable and patient dentist I’ve had the fortune to met. I’ve been using her for years and each time, I’ll tell myself to post a review but each time, life happens and I’ll forget so here it is. My kids come here too and each time, no issues and no complaints. Highly recommend them!

This is my story of how I found Dr. Li-Cavallo. I was stressed out and freaking out about my temporary crown that crack from biting too hard into a mango seed while I was at work. Yes, you read that right, a mango seed. I wanted to crawl under a giant rock and cry. I actually went home and cried under my giant security blank. I refused to go back to my orthodontist, who shall not be named, who did the initial crown work on me. He just lost his touch and didn’t seem to care about the quality of his work anymore. After I ran out of tears to cry I went on ZocDoc and went on an epic, dizzying quest to find a dentist who would be the right fit for me and who would take my crappy dental insurance. The cracked-tooth and puffy-eyed me eventually found Dr. Li-Cavallo’s profile. Dr. Li-Cavallo is simply AMAZING! She explained more to me about my oral health condition than any other dentist I ever visited. Apparently, my orthodontist pretty much butchered the gum tissue surrounding my problem tooth. My gum was inflamed for a year! With two visits, Dr. Li carefully treated the gum area to make sure were stabilized and good shape before she did any crown work. She is very METICULOUS about every detail! For example, the crown arrived from the dental lab (one of the top dental labs in the country, BTW), but she was not satisfied with the product and sent it back with more detailed information of what she wanted to the dental technicians. I’m glad she did! My crown is beautiful and blends in with the rest of my teeth for a natural look. I even smile a lot more now, which is . Her team at Bella Dental are also great and super nice. Ashley, Semana, Kelly, and Evelyn are all really great and nice to talk to. This dental office does not overbook patients in a day so that you’re not waiting hours for your turn. This is good because this allows the team and Dr. Li to give you a little more privacy, comfort, and attention. I actually look forward to going to the dentist now. I even referred my boyfriend to Dr. Li! If you’re looking for a dentist then look no further- I found one for you. You’re welcome.

Doctor Lee is awesome. Super nice person and a rare dentist who is not at all trying to scam you. She only gives you necessary procedures. In my case on my first visit when I was seeking a second opinion because another dentist found 6 cavities all of a sudden, she didn’t charge me extra for an additional x-ray that wasn’t covered by my insurance, but was necessary because the other x-rays from a different dentist were trash. Highly recommend her!

Erin M. from Prospect Heights, Brooklyn, NY (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

I was originally matched with Dr. Li Cavallo after calling to find a weekend appointment somewhere in the city after having lived here for over three years without a dentist visit! That was in 2009, and we’ve since moved to Brooklyn, but we still make the trek every few months and continue to recommend her to all of our friends!

Dr Li is the best dentist I’ve ever met. I have been with her for three years and kept recommending her to my friends and colleagues. I had heard so many terrible stories of seeing a dentist from my colleagues but Dr Li makes the dental procedures not appalling at all. I did two wisdom teeth extractions here and to my surprise I didn’t feel much pain and recovered soon. Her excellent skills impressed me. Dr Li and her staff are very friendly and attentive to any questions you may have. she checked on me during the dental procedure when she noticed that I may feel a bit uncomfortable, apparently I couldn’t speak at that time and I appreciate her attention to the patients. Highly recommend Dr Li to anyone who wants pleasant experience.

Jay T. from New York, NY (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Honestly the best dentist office I have ever been to. Found Bella Dental on Yelp with the stellar reviews. They are very friendly and informative about what to expect. They’re understanding/accommodating about concerns you may have such as anxiety. I had multiple wisdom teeth extractions. The procedure was quick and painless. To the negative reviews complaining about her kids running around the office obviously are not Asian lol. When you run your own business, “Bring Your Kid to Work Day” isn’t a holiday, it’s a way of life :). Tip for fellow anxiety sufferers: there is a massage place down the street that has $10 for 10 minutes. Get one beforehand to help you relax!

Sabrina L. from New York, NY (Source: Yelp)

Uhhh, I am the biggest of all chicken sh*ts when it comes to any dental work. But, Dr Li, and her staff have done an amazing job at keeping me calm. She services all of my family members, and came highly recommended. Dr. Li and her entire staff were super understanding and not irritated by my paranoia’s. Perhaps they get a kick out of it. I’m an over grown child with tattoos galore. People just don’t understand it’s not the same ! Haha Services were fast, I wasn’t waiting forever in the waiting room for my appointment – like most places. She seemed honest, gentle and understanding. I paid a little over $500 with no insurance for a consolation, 2 cavity fillings, and a cleaning. I’m not sure if that’s above or below average – but it seemed fair enough to me. I am also waiting for an Invisalign consultation which she did complimentary. Oh, and they’re even so great – they gave me headphones to use, because I forgot mine, and I hate the sound of them working on my teeth. (: I definitely recommend for people who are like me, and just absolutely hate the dentists!

Absolutely amazing. Dr. Wen Li-Cavallo really took the time to make sure I understood everything that she was saying to me. Very professional and fixed my problem efficiently. Her and the rest of the staff made me feel comfortable and welcome. I felt like I was in such good hands at all times. I would 100% recommend people to come here.

Dr Wen Li Cavallo is the best dentist. Her chairside humor and warm conversations get me through some of the toughest visits. I had an emergency root canal. The tooth was triggering migraines so I was nearly immobilized when my family brought me in. She saw me quickly and gave me a root canal that was painless. I know it sounds impossible but I left there with a smile after a root canal and a filling! She has a gentle touch. wait till you hear this! My next visit I had a bad toothache. I thought I needed a filling but she had to extract the wisdom tooth. I agreed because she is just the most comforting and experienced dentist! She numbed me and honestly it was just a few expert movements and the tooth was out!! I mean like a gnarly root tooth all the way in the back and she got that sucker out in one swift move. Now that’s skill. And she has me laughing afterwards and comforted during the process. I love her! Go to her! Your welcome in advance!!

Ana B. from Brooklyn, NY (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

I highly recommend Dr. Li-Cavallo! I had a cleaning and x-rays taken. She and her receptionist were very friendly and professional. Dr. Li-Cavallo was very thorough, and it was the least painful cleaning I think I’ve ever had! She even took the time to explain my x-rays to me. I will definitely go to her from now on!

Aaron A. from Manhattan, New York, NY (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Dr. Li truly cares about her patients and loves what she does. You are not just a faceless number or stranger here as she and all of her staff are super friendly. She looks out for you financially as well and helps you make informed decisions regarding insurance/billing. I have had routine cleanings and Invisalign done at Bella Dental with excellent results.

I am a non-resident person who lives outside the United States in Oman. I am registering specifically on Yelp to provide this review because I had such outstanding treatment from Dr. Li-Cavallo. During my vacation in the U.S. my tooth cracked while having a delicious meal at Buffalo Wild Wings restaurant in Up-State New York. On the prompting of good reviews from the Internet, I travelled all the way to China Town for an appointment with the Bella Dental and their Dentist, Dr. Li-Cavallo. I wasn’t disappointed. I am one who is really scared of dentists and has great anxiety. However, Dr Li-Cavallo made me very relaxed as she repaired the cracked tooth. Moreover, she did not use any needles with the anaesthetic, which I was thankful for. I was very happy with the service which was very affordable. I am so sad that I live outside the United States. But, if I have to do any major dental operation in the future, I will make sure I make a special trip and appointment to see Dr. Li-Cavallo. Thanks, Dr. Li-Cavallo!!!

There are surely many great dentists in New York City -but there is only one Dr. Li. Does anybody like going to the dentist? Dr. Li will change that. Yes there maybe times of discomfort, novocaine, needles and drilling, but with Dr. Li it seems less painful, why? because she is a real joy to be around. She makes you feel comfortable. She shows personal interest. She makes you feel at ease. She is gentle but yet very thorough with her work. She is constantly taking classes to keep up with industry standards, new techniques and products. She has a very kind staff. She’s not only a great physician but will become a good friend. My wife and I have been clients for over 5 years and are happy that she and her family are here in New York trying hard to keep all our smiles bright. Xiè xie Dr. Wen-Li and the Bella Dental team!

This is by far the best dental office I’ve been to! Dr. Li is super friendly and professional! The whole staff is friendly too and make you feel comfortable during your whole visit! By the way me and my Dad make special trip from Midland Park New Jersey to her office and all worth it. I will definitely recommend this place to my family and friends!

★★★★★

Probably one of the best dentists I’ve been to hands down. During my most recent visit, Dr. Li-Cavallo did her best to avoid a procedure I was a little adverse to and her patience and excellent work paid off! She really listens to her patients and is super considerate of what they’re hoping to accomplish in visiting her. She’s a great conversationalist and very personable so if going to the dentist makes you nervous her excellent bedside manner should help calm some of those worries. Overall, I’ve been very happy with the work I’ve had done so far. When my process is completed I’m definitely coming here for my general cleanings and checkups. Less I forget, her staff is amazing.

Dr. Li and her staff are phenomenal. Every visit feels very welcoming and I leave looking forward to a next appointment. First the staff preps the tools and chair. They’re all so friendly and ensures you’re comfortable for the session. Next, Dr. Li comes and states what will be done plus handles any final preparations. For example, first time I went, super sensitive gums and had numbing gel applied. Second visit onwards, she makes sure to apply ample numbing gel before a cleaning procedure. Exceptional care taking and very much appreciated. After a session, she explains what’s improved and what needs to improve for dental health. Perhaps an updated x-ray review, if applicable. Last but not least, creating an appointment at the front desk before leaving. Additionally, a very valued factor, all my appointment times rarely require waiting. If so, I hardly roll past an additional 10 minutes in waiting time. They make certain patients are seen on time. A super big plus if you experienced long waits at clinics (don’t deny, in NYC that’s standard!)

Ben Z. from New York, NY (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Dr. Li-Cavallo and staff are the most attentive, thorough and caring dental health care providers in New York City! I was worried after a few years of going to average or below average dentists in the city that there aren’t any dentists that care much anymore. Good thing I found her. She’s at a super convenient location in lower Manhattan and I get the best dental care now. Woot!

I first came to Dr. Wen 4 years ago and she’s been my dentist ever since. Before that I haven’t been to the dentist in 4 years and felt both ashamed and terrified. I sobbed uncontrollably in her waiting room because I have a major phobia of the dentist that just completely takes over. Dr. Wen and everyone on her team sat with me and shared their fears and phobias until I calmed down and felt more at ease. They were so dedicated to making me feel comfortable!! She also told me that I should never feel ashamed and that I made a big step even coming in to her office. Now at every visit, she reminds me of the amazing progress I’ve made and that my teeth have gotten so much better!! Which is music to my ears being someone who has such a fear. Dr. Wen never rushes and always takes the time to chat with me (and all her patients) explaining in detail everything she’s doing and making me feel calm and at ease. She’s so talkative and I love it so much because you literally forget you’re at the doctor! She’s funny, warm, so caring, and an excellent dentist!! I cannot recommend her enough. If you have any sort of phobias around this kind of stuff, do yourself a favor and go see her! I always have issues with my teeth, from fillings to root canals, you name it. But I know I’m in the best hands with Dr. Wen – she’s truly like an angel on earth. She will make you feel calm and comfortable and well taken care of. You may even forget you’re at the dentist!

This review will honestly not speak for how thankful I am to have found Bella dental. Doctor is the absolute best!! Not once have I left in pain or had pain after any procedure I’ve had (multiple root canals, crown, fillings, deep cleanings). I came here after not having gone to the dentist in years. 3 years later I’m almost back to being brand new. Dr. Li is one of the most incredible dentists you will find, highly recommend her and thankful for all she’s done! Not going to find anyone like her.

John B. from Arverne, Queens, NY (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

I’ve never written a review on Yelp before. But this was such a good experience. I haven’t always enjoyed dentist visits. I usually go into them with anxiety because of past bad experiences. Dr. Li-Cavallo was amazing. She was personable, attentive, genuinely interested in hearing what I had to say before she started work on me. As a result, when she started the work, I was relaxed and comfortable. She did great work as well. Very competent, very intelligent and very easy to work with. That’s the first time in my life I’ve said that about a dentist.
