PATIENT REVIEWS

I am currently half way through my Invisalign journey, and have had a great experience. I have suffered from jaw pain for years. While I have always believed this was due to poor dental work that changed my bite, most dentists advised me that the pain was solely due to stress and could not be remedied. During my first visit with Dr. Orlando I expressed my interest in Invisalign. Dr. Orlando carefully laid out a modest plan to address all my concerns with a focus on one issue at a time. We started with Invisalign. The first few weeks were truly uncomfortable. However, as a result of my bite being re-aligned nearly ALL of my jaw pain had subsided. This experience has been worth every penny and I am so grateful to have found Dr. Orlando.

This experience has been worth every penny and I am so grateful to have found Dr. Orlando.

I have been a patient of Dr. Orlando’s for 3 years. My daughter, Emily Yianilos recommended him. I have had the most pleasant and professional experiences at your office. Dr. Orlando has taken the time to phone me personally and I appreciate that very much. The office staff and hygienists have been extremely thoughtful and kind. Thank you all very much.

I’ve been searching for an excellent dentist for a long time: Not only one I’m comfortable with but one I can deposit my full trust in the care of my teeth. Dr. Orlando (and his team) is that Dentist. For my second visit I was scheduled to get a veneer. I fully expecting that this would span a few visits and that I would end up with a tooth that was obviously not natural, however, this office is equipped with skilled clinicians and an experienced full-time esthetic lab with custom fitting and shade that are 100% results-driven – you walk out of your visit with what you came in for; no endless follow up visits to see if the shading is right or if any other modifications need to be made. When I smile it’s impossible to tell at all which tooth is a veneer. Forget what you believe you know about veneers – This is dentistry at its best. Everyone here is transparent, you know what’s being done to your teeth, why and how, and you know what the next steps are. They help you with payment plans if needed, and the staff are professionals at what they do.  I cannot tell you how satisfied I am with my results and the experienceI.

Dr. Orlando is by far the most thorough and precise dentist I have ever had. He’s done a number of procedures for me and most recently, he placed an implant post. I put off doing this for quite some time as my previous experience with implants (with another dentist/practice) was quite uncomfortable and painful. Much to my surprise and delight, my implant experience with Dr. Orlando was painless. I couldn’t believe the difference! I left the office without having to alter my plans for the day-including the food I wanted to eat. At the risk of sounding like a cheesy salesperson; If you’re considering an implant, don’t hesitate to have Dr. O get the process going for you. You won’t regret it!

Consulted with Dr. Orlando with straightening front upper and lower teeth. He recommended invisalign which worked better than I expected.  After final trays were done he added an additional series even though I was happy with results.  That little detail made a world of difference with the bite and smile.  Expectations far and beyond exceeded.  The office staff are very professional and accommodating as well.  Will continue to visit him for routine maintenance and other issues if they arise.  Thank you Dr. Orlando and Gallery 57 Dental

Gallery 57 is super friendly, professional, and the most efficiently run medical office I have ever visited. But Dr. Orlando is the real reason I am a patient at Gallery 57. Like most other people I find the dentist to be intimidating and a bit stressful. Dr. Orlando put all my anxiety at ease. He is kind and gentle, and takes the time to explain what he is doing and why. This last visit, I had to have a crown replaced. Dr Orlando utilizes a new technology where he was able to create and install my new crown in one visit! All other dentist I have been to require two visits to accomplish this. The procedure was surprisingly painless and my crown looks amazing! I never expected this crown to look so natural, and compared to my other older crowns, this one feels so much better in my mouth! If you are looking for a dentist, call Dr Orlando!

Great experience and friendly staff! I have been going to Dr. Frank Orlando for some time now for a couple type of treatment. I had a whitening done that went very well. I also recently got a treatment plan that’s in the beginning stages of a dental implant. At first I thought this would be a very painful procedure and more invasive but to my surprise, it almost felt as if I had not done a surgical procedure. The hardest part was the numbing needle which I typically cringe whenever I know I have to get any needles :). Dr. Orlando was quick and efficient and explained every step he had to take in details so that I can have a full understanding of what is being done. I was finished in less than 2 hours and only felt slight soreness after the numbing wore off. I was also able to eat solid foods within a few hours after. The next day I was back to normal and almost forgot that I had a procedure done. This office has the most updated technology I’ve ever seen in a dental office. I look forward to the next step in my treatment and this is coming from someone that has a low tolerance to pain. Thanks to Dr. Orlando and his Staff!

After my first root canal (!), I needed a crown. The endodontist strongly recommended Dr. Orlando, who was not only a very skilled dentist, but had an onsite fabrication laboratory which enabled same-day, single appointment preparation, measurement, and application of the ceramic crown. It was quick (<2 hrs including crown fabrication), painless, convenient, and Dr. Orlando and his staff were kind and highly competent. It’s now three months later– the crown looks great and I’ve had no complications.

I was referred to Dr. Orlando by a colleague of mine, who has had a history of bad dentists – so you know when someone has had the worst, and passes along information of someone who is great, you know to take their word! Most of my life I had the same small town dentist (the same one my mother had growing up), followed by the “lovely” person who bought his practice, followed by Army Dentists – so I know my fair share of bad dentistry as well! I’ve been to Dr. Orlando twice so far – once as a new patient for a cleaning, and once for the dreaded filling (I typically despise visiting the dentist office – so much so – that I haven’t had a cleaning in nearly 5 years!) – From the very moment I walked into the office, it was warm and inviting – the team behind the desk is top notch, and the ladies all very friendly. They explained everything that I was going to be billed for when my insurance was verified, and why I had to make a payment that day (aka, my dental insurance is not as top notch as Dr. Orlando). The wait room was clean, with water and coffee readily available – music was playing and the atmosphere was relaxed, you could tell the employees enjoy their workplace. Upon entering the exam room, Dr. Orlando’s dental hygienist took great care of me. She thoroughly explained everything that was going to get done during the first visit, ensured that I was comfortable the entire time, and offered to play me any genre of music I wanted to listen to. When it came time for Dr. Orlando to come, my overwhelming sense of dread of all things dentistry began to creep up – However, I was extremely surprised! Dr. Orlando was extremely thorough, explaining in layman’s terms everything he was discovering while he was completing his exam/cleaning – yes, that’s right, as a new patient the dentist himself did my full cleaning! He was extremely personable and friendly – my dental dread and discourse faded instantly during this visit. Well, as it turned out – I would have to return at least one more time – but due to my insurance, we agreed to split the next visit into two visits, so that I could wait until the new year for benefits to kick back in, up my plan to a better one for the work needing to be done, and save myself some out of pocket costs… Dr. Orlando cares not only about his patient’s teeth – but their wallets as well! Upon my next visit – it was time for a filling. For the first time in my dental history, I have finally found a dentist that was able to numb my tooth completely prior to beginning drilling!! Normally, I feel the first part of the drilling and have to ask for more Novocaine – not this time! I was so excited about something so small, but there was no pain felt at all! For once, I am not left dreading returning to the dentist for the rest of my dental work, because I know that I am in good hands, will be taken care of, and with a competent doctor. Hands down. The best dentist I have ever been to!

This has been the most amazing dentist visit in my life! I had multiple problems in my mouth and Dr. Orlando was able to show them to me on a screen with a live video feed from a tiny camera that he put in my mouth! X-Rays may be informative to professional dentists, but for us patients seeing the teeth with our own eyes is much more convincing. What’s more impressive is that they were able to put a crown on my tooth the same day! They had a sophisticated 3-D modeling technology that was able to quickly create the crown right inside of their lab. As Dr. Orlando was performing the procedure, I was lying comfortably watching Star Wars using the special video glasses and Bose noise cancelling headphones. His assistant Diana was very friendly and helpful giving me a lot of useful information while she was performing the oral exam and while the doctor was out. Dr. Orlando told me there is a 50/50 chance of me needing the root canal in addition to putting the crown, but he still decided to try to do it without doing the root canal trying to perform the minimal invasive treatment, and guess what, the tooth feels fine after the crown was put on it and it does not hurt at all. The crown looks indistinguishable from my own teeth! It was an awesome job! I am looking forward to come back to Dr. Orlando to perform the rest of my dental treatment. I am greatly happy to have found him and that I have finally found a really great dentist!

Dr. Orlando is an exceptional dentist. I have visited several dentists in the past and it has never been a pleasant experience. Dr. Orlando is different — he took the time to answer all of my questions and made sure I was always fully comfortable. He was sincere and very diligent with his work. I look forward to returning to Dr. Orlando for all of my dental needs in the future!

Dr Orlando performed an implant on one of my bottom molars which was capped off with a crown. I truly cannot say enough about how easy and painless he made the entire process. He used a minimally invasive implant procedure which was completely painless (no joke) and the crown on top looks completely natural – I often have trouble figuring out which tooth I even had the procedure on! Recovery was quick and I could not be more pleased with the results. I highly recommend Dr. Orlando for his professionalism, warmth and expertise and will have no hesitation in returning to him in the future.

My co-worker has been raving about Dr. Orlando for years, saying that while other dentists recommended pulling out teeth, he’s always had a much more well-rounded, holistic approach, with no unnecessary extreme (and expensive!) measures. I didn’t take it seriously, but only I got to meet him! He’s the first dentist that truly gives you attention, care and expert dental work. I also love that he’s concerned about the health of your teeth and heard me out on my aesthetic wishes and concerns, without pushing anything, and gave me time to set my own priorities for dental work. I wasn’t going to do 7 fillings at once because in all reality, I was scared. I cancelled half of the fillings with the front desk, and he personally called me to ask me what my concerns were. He called me out on the stories I’d created in my head like a pro. After talking to him I felt so much more comfortable and pulled the trigger. Best decision! I got 7 fillings done with him in one sitting and it was pain-free, and my teeth look and feel better than ever. I felt that Dr. Orlando and all of his staff went above and beyond to make sure I feel comfortable, taken care of and healthy. Rock on!

Dr. Orlando is a talented and skilled dentist. I would know because I have had the following procedures: cleanings extractions, new crowns, an implant and Invaslign. All procedures were pain free and the outcome was exceptional. An implant sounds daunting and ominous. This was not a problem for me. He used state of the art technology to get the right measurements and alignment. I am needle phobic! He is so skilled that I barely felt the needle or had any anxiety about seeing it. I won’t ever go to anyone else.

Dr. Orlando has been my dentist for almost 10 years and for as long as I am in NYC, I will never go to another dentist. It is so easy to make appointments, the entire staff is friendly and conscientious, and I am always seen in a timely manner. I have also had oral multiple surgeries and always got great coordination between my oral surgeon referral and Dr. Orlando. I also had a very seamless Invisalign process with Dr. Orlando and can’t believe how much happier I am just due to the pristine condition of my teeth. I cannot recommend Dr. Orlando enough!

Amazing experience! Dr. Orlando genuinely cares about his patients and does everything in his power to make sure you receive the best care. We had a very negative experience with our previous dentist and Dr. Orlando took the time to help us in the grievance process with our insurance. In addition, the hygienists and support staff are top notch. Will not hesitate recommending all of my family, friends and colleagues to Dr. Orlando!

I’m literally thrilled that I’ve finally find a holistic dentist who accepts my insurance. Dr. Orlando is the best dentist I’ve ever had the pleasure of being a patient for. He took time to get to know me, understands my health goals. He himself is health and fitness oriented which makes me confident to have him on my team of health care providers. The office staff was phenomenal and very classy. The technicians and dental hygienists were very caring and professional.

I’ve been at Dr. Orlando’s office when their practice was in-network, out-of-network, and even in the period of time when I didn’t have any insurance at all. Doctor have high work ethics (he talked me out of having a procedures I was considering, saying that they wouldn’t have a long-lasting effect), is forthcoming when it comes to treatment options and pricing, and have a very positive attitude. Just to give you an example of attention: I once emailed the office a question during their non-business day and wasn’t expecting to get a reply until next day. Surprisingly Dr. Orlando answered from his email the same evening with a detailed response. It was my first email and I wasn’t even a client there. tl/dr: Dr. Orlando is truly amazing. P. S. As another reviewer mentioned (and I fully agree): the best dentist I ever had!

Dr Orlando is top notch! I have never liked going to the dentist until I met him. He is extremely skilled and made me want to smile again! I needed several crowns and root canals and he made them completely painless! He is very knowledgeable and explained everything as he went along the procedure. By the end of the procedure I felt like I had almost spent an hour at a spa instead of a dental office! Thanks again Dr. Orlando for being an amazing dentist!

During this unprecedented time, it is good to know that I can rely on Dr. Orlando and his wonderful staff to be there for my dental care. The office made me feel safe by screening for Covid-19 prior to my appointment. Upon arrival, I was greeted by Elia, the receptionist who was professional and friendly. I had my temperature checked and there was social distancing. Elena, my hygienist made me feel comfortable and was patient during my cleaning. If you looking for a dental office, I would definitely recommend Gallery 57 Dental.

My tooth problems bothered me day and night for the whole year. Luckily I met Dr. Orlando and we’ve achieved a milestone of the treatment before the New Year. If my tooth problem is like a sharp ice, which made me feel cold and painful, Dr. Orlando is like the Coke melting the ice, relieving the pain and solving the problem through a series of procedures using his cutting-edge knowledge, top notch techniques as well as great patience during the process. Moreover, he’s trying his best to make sure that I am comfortable with everything before the surgery, which is really impressive. Dr. Orlando is truly excellent!!!

Wonderful job (whitening, veneers, other misc work), I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Orlando and team I went to Dr. Orlando because I was feeling very self conscious about my teeth, which had multiple problems including discoloration, gaps, misalignment etc. Dr. Orlando did a robust examination and created a plan tailored to my teeth. Perhaps most importantly, there was a strong emphasis on making things fit my face and mouth. I had a whitening procedure + veneers inserted and I could not be happier with the result! I feel much more confident with my smile, and I really feel like the final results look natural and personal. Dr Orlando and team are incredibly knowledgeable and professional. I had a wonderful experience throughout, and I will be referring my friends to him should they want similar procedures (or just for a checkup!)

Hands down, best dentist I’ve ever been to. I’ve had cleanings, crowns, fillings, and an implant done and they’ve all been seamless. I’ve been to my fair share of dentists (6) over the years and none have come close to the quality of work that Dr. Orlando and Gallery57 Dental does. It’s reminiscent of the tag-lines in those old infomercials “Set it & forget it”. You come to have a procedure done with Dr. Orlando once, and it’s done right. I wouldn’t think of going anywhere else to get any dental work done.

Great dentist! Went in for tooth pain and found out I had to get a crown. I was pretty nervous, as I don’t have a very high pain tolerance when it comes to dental work. Dr Orlando numbed me up and I didn’t feel a thing the whole procedure. I also got to watch Netflix during the procedure, which really helped make the whole experience go by much faster. Staff was nice and welcoming, and office was very technologically advanced. Would go back for future dental work as the doctor/team were great.

I came to Dr. Orlando after years of inadequate service and neglect on the part of the staff at my local dental clinic.  He was surprised at the condition of my dental health given that I religiously went for my dental cleanings every six months year after year.  Dr. Orlando discovered I was suffering from bone loss and needed three molars removed. He recommended implants and I feared the thought of it.  After months of procrastinating, I agreed to start the process.  Due to the bone loss I required bone graphs. I was scheduled for the surgery two days after Christmas and I prayed a lot.  Dr. Orlando was kind, sympathetic and compassionate.  He explained every step as he went along.  He created a mold of my teeth/gum as well as digital prints to help him prepare for the post implant.   I am happy to say I did not feel a thing, aside from the pinch of the Novocain needle.  Dr. Orlando even had a post-surgery plan for a speedy healing when I went home.  I was pleasantly surprised that it all went so smoothly.

Dr. Orlando is the best dentist I could find here in New York coming from Italy. The studio is very clean and welcoming. Dr. Orlando is professional, understanding, explaining everything in detail before any intervention. The dentist who inspires confidence! I’ve been a patient for almost 5 years. I was always afraid of dentists but due to my problems I always had to go there. I was treated by him for caries, root canals and implants and I can say that the best experience was with the three implants I did all at once in just two hours. At first the idea of ​​undergoing such a delicate surgery scared me, but then I convinced myself to do it and the surgery went beyond my best expectations. I didn’t feel any pain, I didn’t have the slightest annoyance and especially after the anesthesia I didn’t have to take any medicine. It was easier than treating a simple cavity. I really didn’t expect it to be so simple and without any discomfort, even minimal. I suggest you to choose dr Orlando as your dentist, you will be more than satisfied.

Met with Dr. Orlando regarding teeth alignment and better smile. He recommended the invisalign process. After final trays were done, he recommended an additional series of trays which accented my bite and smile even further. I’m appreciative of his experience and patience to perfect my smile. In addition, the staff is professional and courteous which adds to the overall experience. I will be his client for life. Thank you. Anthony

First… I have a fear of dentists from a bad experience as a kid in Europe. I was introduced to Dr. Orlando and his team over a year ago. Now, I really look forward to my appointments (don’t leave the office without scheduling the next!). I will start with the technology… Dr. O advised me that one of my crowns needed to be replaced and I had a cavity. I immediately imagined being in pain, taking prints, having a “temp”, etc… How about having it all taken care of during one visit? Well, that’s what Dr. Orlando did… no pain, a crown that I could not distinguish from my own teeth and what cavity? Dr. O prepped the area that needed a new crown and while the “in-house” lab created my new crown, my cavity was being taken care of. The “new crown” was a perfect fit allowing just enough space to let dental floss do its job (don’t forget to floss!). I was advised to be careful not to drink a hot beverage of eat since I would still be numb. That night I dined on grilled shrimps, ate veggies and bread…. having forgotten about my new crown! Enough about the technology…. there is an amazing team supporting Dr. O and I can’t thank everyone enough for being professional, courteous and caring about patients (Elizabeth thank you for caring so much!). Finally about Dr. O.: Who gets a message from their dentist on a Sunday making sure you are OK? I did. Dr. O is amazing and truly cares about his patients. Being able to use the latest/best technology is important but having someone who truly cares is what differentiates Dr. O. Thank you Dr. O. HPuault PS: my next appointment is already scheduled!

I found myself in a situation where I unfortunately required 2 implants to be placed after not having followed up as well as I should with previous dental issues. I was very wary of the process and so avoided the issues for quite awhile until finally coming to Dr. Orlando’s office. Dr. Orlando did a fantastic job. He explained the process very clearly, the procedure was pain free and the results were amazing. I only regret not having started the process sooner as I now know how straightforward and minimally invasive this is. Having the implants placed restored my self confidence and dramatically improved my life. I would recommend him very highly to anyone in a similar situation.

After meeting several dentists in the city for a consultation for two dental implants I was referred to Dr. Orlando and his staff. The dental implants I needed were on my two front teeth. Other dentists I met with said that the procedure would not be possible unless I had a bone graft prior to the surgery. The bone graft would be an additional expense and healing process. To get the procedure done I would have to work with two dentists. One dentist would perform the surgery and the other dentist would perform the restoration. When I met with Dr. Orlando he explained to me a procedure called “minimally invasive computer guided implant placement.” With this surgery I would not need a bone graft and he would perform both the surgery and restoration. In essence he would take a pain free 3D Xray of my mouth and build a “stencil.” He would use the “stencil” he created as a guide for the surgery. Since the “stencil” was very precise he did not have to perform a bone graft and I experienced only minor pain after the surgery and felt completely recovered within 24 hours. I have heard other people mention their recovery was a lot longer. From a service stand point I can’t say enough about Dr. Orlando and his staff. I was able to schedule my surgery and follow up appointments on the weekend so it didn’t have to interfere with my work week. Dr. Orlando took the time to explain to me how the process above works. He answered all questions and concerns I had. He made me feel comfortable during the surgery and it was completed approximately an hour and a half. Dr. Orlando’s cost was similar to the other quotes I received. If you are looking to receive a top rate job with superior quality by and exceptional Doctor and staff I would recommend visiting Dr. Orlando. Other people who have had dental implants are amazed at how quick my recovery was and the technology of the “minimally invasive computer guided implant placement.” They all would prefer this implant procedure to the one they received.

Gallery 57 is super friendly, professional, and the most efficiently run medical office I have ever visited. But Dr. Orlando is the real reason I am a patient at Gallery 57. Like most other people I find the dentist to be intimidating and a bit stressful. Dr. Orlando put all my anxiety at ease. He is kind and gentle, and takes the time to explain what he is doing and why. This last visit, I had to have a crown replaced. Dr Orlando utilizes a new technology where he was able to create and install my new crown in one visit! All other dentist I have been to require two visits to accomplish this. The procedure was surprisingly painless and my crown looks amazing! I never expected this crown to look so natural, and compared to my other older crowns, this one feels so much better in my mouth! If you are looking for a dentist, call Dr Orlando!

After years of being referred from one dentist to another within a network of oral care providers, and seeing no progress towards achieving any solutions to my many oral-care issues which ranged from, ill-fitted crowns, abnormally shaped teeth, indentation of teeth at the gum lines, halitosis and cavities which were hidden from plain sight, my social life began to suffer. Frequent excuses to avoid any functions where laughter or eating, was expected to take place, became common place for me. I just did not want to open my mouth in public. I ventured out on my own, searching for a competent dentist, and soon became frustrated once again, with long drawn out periods between visits, doing drillings and probing and expensive fluoride out-of-pocket treatment, with dentists who had no time to even listen to my concerns before pushing some instrument in my month which prevented me from expressing my concerns to them in the first place. Realizing that at fifty-something, years old my life had screeched to a halt, I jumped up and took to the internet. I did eight hours of research, and reading every single review on selected dentists within a thirty- mile radius of my zip code. I graded them on the quality of reviews they had received, and their areas of specialization in dentistry. I picked Frank Orlando, D.D.S. FAGD, FICOI: Gallery 57 Dental. After making my appointment, I received my new-patient forms via email and an invitation to email him with any concerns regarding my visit which I wanted him to know. My skepticism kicked in to full gear thinking that my email was not going to be read, and this was the usual marketing ploy. I played along out of pure helplessness and desperation. I sent an email anyway. I arrived for my visit and this has been my experience from that day forward: Professional, courteous, friendly staff welcomed me: Gave me a quick tour of Gallery 57 Dr. Orlando had my email printed out and ready to discuss every line I had written (no gimmick) Clean, comfortable facility with state-of-the-art equipment One-stop shop: no referrals all over the place: EVERYTHING is done on premises Appointment time was honored. No long exhausting wait Complete and thorough examination A detailed explanation of what needed to be done to remedy all my dental problems A detailed/written treatment plan An explanation of what would be done on each visit and HOW LONG the visit would take A detailed explanation of costs (insurance and out-of-pocket) associated with each visit. Ease of making follow-up appointments Continued explanation of procedures as they are performed Every appointment runs the exact length of time the Dr. said it would have My Husband who listened attentively to my feedback after my first visit became a patient, and walked out on his second visit (within a week’s period) with a completely straight alignment (with veneers) of four crooked unsightly teeth, which all the previous dentists had told him were impossible to correct. Uneven gum line-straight. Confidence level-heightened. Happy. Dr. Frank Orlando and his team at Gallery 57 Dental are a group of professionals who treat people with care and are EXPERTS in the field. They understand that oral health affects the entire person (psychologically and physically). My husband and I have begun to laugh again. On a scale of 1-10 where 10 indicates how likely I would be to recommend Gallery 57 to friends, family, or anyone in need of dental care, I am going off the chart at a 12. Gallery 57 Dental performs Miracles on 57.
