Our family has been with Dr. Dean for 26 years. The staff are all kind and thorough and Dr. Zarikoff is clear with his assessment and need for treatment (or not), gentle and never rushed. If you are fearful of dentists, this is the place to go.

I haven't seen a dentist in over 22 years, I am terrified by the whole process, but to the awesome Dr. Zarikoff, I praise him and his very gentle, caring, down to earth manner, as well as all his technicians. I will only go to his dentist, felt comfortable and informed on everything that was being done to my mouth.

Dr Zarikoff is a gem - it's really hard to find a good dentist! He has a very pleasant manner, is professional, and provides appropriate treatment that doesn't have his pocketbook directly in mind. I trust the advice he offers, and I trust his work. The staff are great, very friendly and accommodating. I would recommend his office in a heartbeat.
