PATIENT REVIEWS

Check out what some of our happy patients are saying about us:

★★★★★

Dr. Messer’s dental office is very professional and caring. Other than having someone’s hand in your mouth, it seems like going to see friends. My wife had to go for sleep apnea device and the dentist told her what a great job her dentist is doing and complemented him on his work. Excellent care, friendly office staff and top shelf dentistry.

I have been going to Dr. Messer for several years. I have been pleased with the dental care I have received. He is friendly, easy going and very knowledgeable. He explains things well. The office is always neat and clean. Whenever a dental issue arose they always fit me in for an appointment. He does not accept my insurance but they submit to my insurance company for me. I would recommend Dr. Messer.

★★★★★

Professional and Painless I required dental services on October 12, 2015. After an exam and X-ray the current condition of my teeth was explained and all corrective possibilities were thoroughly explained and evaluated. We agreed on the treatment that would best suit my situation and the services were were performed professionally and painlessly. I left in good condition and with my problem handled. I was very happy when I left the office.

“I hate needles. Dr, Messer is not a dentist, he is an artist. He transformed my smile from something I had suppressed for 50 years (truly) to something I now confidently display, in fact, some people say ‘give us a break with the smile’ or they call me ‘smiley’. I had never known Dr. Messer but he acquired the practice from a very well respected, trusted, and now retired DDS in Randolph (shout out to Dr. Gershenhorn). Dr. Messer and his staff are truly amazing. I don’t fancy dentists but he can determine, very quickly, the state of your situation and what has to be done. If you need work, Painless (truly) Messer is your dentist.

I cannot say enough about how wonderful Dr. Messer is!! He and his staff create an environment where you feel like part of their family. They ask about family members, they chat about what’s going on in their lives and ask about mine, and there is an all around feeling of warmth. That notwithstanding, Dr. Messer and his staff are true professionals, each being very skilled in his/her area of expertise. The office uses all of the most up-to-date digital equipment which helps Dr. Messer make accurate diagnoses. He’s an excellent dentist, and I think the world of him. I would definitely recommend him and have often.

★★★★★

Dr. Messer is one of the most knowledgeable Dentists I have ever been to. He was recommended by a friend who knew I needed help with teeth that were never corrected in my 60 years. My bite was off, I did not know… Dr. Messer not only recognized what the problem was but explained the issue and the plan in layman terms. Finally, it all made sense, and not one dentist ever took the time to educate me on the bite. He did not have to do that, he could have just put crown after crown on like all the others, but he knows that ultimately there is a logical reason why something is not working and the patient deserves to hear the truth and the best plan for the future. His practice allows you to come in and relax and learn what the best approach is first, then we sat in a friendly meeting in his conference room that goes through the suggested steps digitally. It was very simple this way! When you approach people with kindness and respect and are humble and passionate about your craft you win people over. From Laura, Ashleigh, Joann, Elaine and Dr. Messer, his entire team are just terrific, reliable, responsible and very kind. Truly a great practice, clean, warm and inviting to help fix, restore and make you look better. Eric Epstein

I have been using Dr. Messer for several years, and have found him to be an excellent dentist. He is prompt and congenial. His explanations are thorough and clear, and his diagnostic acumen and therapeutic skills are extraordinary. (And he is painless, as well)! His staff is courteous and friendly and tend to have a calming effect upon his patients. His office is immaculate, and his equipment is state of the art. I would be remiss if I did not also give due praise to Elaine, his hygienist. She is also highly skilled, knowledgeable, and extremely thorough. Very highly recommended!!

★★★★★

Dr Messer and everyone on his staff are highly qualified, true professionals. If you are new to the area or considering a change from your current Professional I highly recommend making an appointment to see Dr Messer. His office has all state-of-art equipment to address many areas of dental health. From experience I find Dr Messer to be extremely thorough. He makes sure his patient is satisfied beyond his own satisfaction with the services he performs.

★★★★★

Dr. Messer and his staff are wonderful! Each person is warm as well as professional. Laura goes out of her way to schedule appointments within your availability, to let you know of any changes, to check insurance benefits, etc. Dr. Messer couldn’t be nicer. He offers state of the art dental care all while making the visit as comfortable as possible.

A friend referred me to Dr. Messer. I had a hard time parting from my dentist, but needed to due to insurance change. I was able to get an appointment last minute, the receptionist was excellent (just as excellent in person) and made it an easy phone call. The dental hygienist Esther did a great cleaning and was very friendly. Dr. Messer was just as fantastic as the rest of his staff, he was friendly and thorough. I would recommend Dr. Messer to anyone living in area.

Have been going to this dental practice for well over 20 years. Was concerned when my original dentist retired and Dr. Messer took over the practice. However, after my first appointment I can say my concerns were no longer there. He is friendly, courteous, professional, and an excellent dentist. His staff is the best. Will go out of their way to work around your schedule. Cannot be happier that I remained a patient. My entire family also goes to Dr. Messer. They also praise him and staff. If you are looking for an excellent dental practice this is the place to go.

Who knew the best dentist would be in New Jersey? Great dental care and an incredible staff all around. I would highly recommend a visit to Dr. Messer and his team to anyone, especially those who have had bad experiences in the past with other dentist or are just generally reluctant to go. They make you feel comfortable, provide service in a timely manner, explain everything very carefully, show you everything they do, and are experts in general & cosmetic dentistry!

I’ve been going to Dr. Messer and his team for several years and am extremely happy with them. I always feel that they are dedicated to giving me the best care possible and explain everything as we go along. The entire staff is professional and caring. I wouldn’t dream of going anywhere else!

★★★★★

I have been a patient here for over 40 years. First with Dr. Gershenhorn until he retired and now with Dr. Messer. The transition was seamless. Myself and my family have always received top notch care. Elaine the hygienist is very thorough and personable. I’ve known her for years. Laura at the front desk is also very sweet. Follow Dr Messer’s advice and care and you won’t have any dental problems. Highly recommended.

★★★★★

I’ve gone to Dr. Messer’s office for as long as I can remember, and it really feels like home to me! You could not ask for a nicer office, full of professionalism and warmth. They even sent me a handwritten birthday card with a lottery ticket in it this year. Even though I go to law school across the country and will be working in the city, I always travel home to go to Dr. Messer’s office – it is very much worth it. I strongly recommend you book an appointment!

★★★★★

I am an MD physician who learned something valuable from my dentist, Dr. Phil Messer.   And that is how to give a local anesthetic, when needed, as close to painlessly as can be.  He patiently topicalizes, uses a minuscule gauge, and with distraction and kindness  injects very slowly. I am adopting his technique in my practice.

James M. from Punta Gorda, FL (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Dr. Messer and his staff have always been professionally and caring with all my dental needs. Most recently they installed two crowns, both done on the same day. I needed a quick turn around due to traveling conflicts, he and his team turned them around within the time frame required. The new crowns fit very well as did the temporaries. I would not hesitate to recommend this office to any of my family or friends. The office also does very well at time allotments and scheduling and I’ve never waited past my appointment time.

Several months ago, during my Invisalign treatments, I talked with Dr. Messer about the general condition of my “silver fillings”. I knew from my x-rays there were areas in need of attention (e.g. cracks in the fillings). No surprise since the fillings and “caps” were over 30 years old. Dr. Messer and I laughed about the “museum” in my mouth. I made an appointment to conference with him so I could have a better understanding of what could be done. Using the x-rays, Dr. Messer pointed out areas of concern and in excellent layman’s terms explained all possible options of correction. He patiently answered all my questions and assured me nothing was urgent. I asked about what might be under my old crowns, he was honest in letting me know he could not positively know until he actually took an old crown off. There was no pressure to do anything. After much thinking, I decided to begin fixing my “museum”. After my Invisalign, at my pace, Dr. Messer has over many months, made my teeth and mouth healthy. He has given me new crowns and the “cracked silver fillings” are fixed. He did find some small cavities which I never knew about and took care of them. Dr. Messer has the skill and up-to-date knowledge to give me healthy teeth which should last me for the rest of my life. We are now in the final phase of completion and I couldn’t be more appreciative or grateful. Thank you to Dr. Messer, his assistant Ashley and the entire Team at Dr. Messer’s! I have been a patient of Dr. Messer’s for several years after my dentist retired. He takes care of my 95 year old mother, husband, several friends and me with the most gentle hands and up-to-date knowledge. Recently, I somehow cracked my Invisalign retainer. No worries, Dr. Messer is making me a new one. Every visit is 5 stars! Over time, Dr. Messer has given me healthy teeth and a great smile! Dr. Messer & his warm staff put patients at ease, provide excellent dental care & an enjoyable visit!

Great practice! I travel from Hoboken to continue seeing Dr. Messer because I can’t find anyone who compares! Dr. Messer is very easy to work with and extremely knowledgeable and understanding. Laura (the receptionist) is always eager to help and does a tremendous job with scheduling and fitting me in when needed. Esther, my dental hygienist, makes for one of the most pleasant teeth cleaning experiences I’ve ever had! She’s extremely gentle and cognizant of my comfort – while still making sure I leave feeling extra clean! Overall, this is a great team!

Whenever you visit Dr. Messer, everyone from Laura (who greets you when you arrive) to Ashley (who makes sure you are comfortable during your procedure) to Elaine (who is an excellent Dental Hygienist) to Dr. Messer are always pleasant, cheerful and glad to see you. Your scheduled appointment is on time and as painless as possible and they are aware that your time is important to you. Great group and although a dental visit is not high on anyone’s list, they make the visit as pleasant as possible. I am a long time patient (as is my Granddaughter) and we are very pleased.

Going to the dentist has always been a source of anxiety resulting in serious procrastination. When I could no longer put it off, my research led me to Dr. Messer. After several years and procedures , including invisalign, I am very happy to say that I am a new person with a new mouth. I am so grateful to Dr. Messer and his entire staff for making what I use to dread, a very competent and comfortable experience.
