My experience at the clinic was great. Lina, her assistant, and Dr.Lopez took very good care of my problem. I couldn't have asked for a very professional staff and dentists and soon to be dentists. I will definitely be back again before May to see Lina for other work. She will be an amazing dentist!!!

I went in for a consultation for a dental implant. I was told that my first visit was going to be $120. Well, I gotta check up no x-rays and it was charged 150 when I questioned. They told me that the Doctor should look at my teeth. Well, that's what I went in for. Anyways, they gave me a second appointment. And then they told me that the consultation would be $120. Then I went to pay and that was charged 135, and the explanation was that my gums were examined by your Doctor to check the bone density, which I didn't agree to that. I did. N't requested that service. I just went to get one tooth extracted and then put it in an implant. And she end up taking the tooth out and putting a bone and membrane and I was giving a plastic cover with the whole sides of the whole which I have an original gapp between 2. Tooth but they gave me 2 gaps. So I didn't agree to that I wasn't shown what I was going to be paying for so I asked for my money back and Doctor Garcia. She had to leave class to come and refund me. My money and she was like very angry. I don't know. Why would you be angry? It was not a good fit from my mouth. So what should I pay for?. And I've been calling them for 2 weeks

What a waste of time and money it was to have treatment at NSU odontology clinic for six months. Came out with my teeth in worse shape and over $2,000 poorer. Bureaucratic and out of touch with patients, this place was a big disappointment. Stay away, no matter if it sounds cheaper at first. You will end up spending hours on a chair with far in between appointment to accomplish very little. Take my advice.

While the actual dental staff is great and deserve 5 Stars! Unfortunately, the administrative staff are not as efficient, it is a teaching institute and comprehensive. They book appointments and dont enter in system, they cancel appointments without notification. The staff do not have the qualifications to do their job, especially the supervisor. I cannot wait until my son completes this process, referred for the comprehensive services and its been frustrating. Bottom Line, do not trust a word you are told, not for time frames, appointments, not for accurate treatment planning, make sure you keep every piece of paper and request a written time frame, plan appointments ahead of time. Again, the students have been amazing, the process has been grueling, the office staff/management deficient.

Friend tried for two years to get dental work done. Over that time friend went through multiple dental students assigned to her. Issues arose and has been in pain for the last couple of months. Because of the ongoing issues and wait times to get in and the minimum two hours of being there we were force to go to a regular dentist two times to try to fix what seems like shabby work. I’ve called to speak to an administrator, left messages never got a response. Couple of days ago I received a call where the representative asked about the issue. Explained to her and she promised to inform the manager. Still no call back. Would not recommend going this route at all.

My personal experiences at Nova dental were always very good. It is absolutely true that you need 3 to 4 hours for each appointment, and even for a simple cleaning it usually takes two visits. This is definitely not the place for someone short on time. This is the place for people who can give their time for excellent and affordable dental care.

I needed a root canal and crown really bad. I went to my regular dentist and was told that would cost over $6000. So I called nova and got scheduled. My student dentist was wonderful. The procedure ended up being a small fraction of that cost. Pretty much got my entire mouth done for the price my regular dentist quoted me at. Throughout treatment the student dentist, Marc, educated me about my issues. After completing my entire treatment plan I was referred to the orthodontist upstairs. I put $500 down payment and got the metal braces because they were $2000 less than Invisalign braces. I agreed that I would pay $240(roughly) a month. The student orthodontist, Beau, was great. After 5 months of treatment I had to reschedule 2 appointments due to a family emergency and then the “Great Flood of Fort Lauderdale”. Not knowing that the $240 payment was going to stack up for each appointment rescheduled. The appointments seemed to only be available on a monthly basis to top it off. I call to reschedule, then the office staff calls me back to inform me that on this visit I will have to pay about $700 just to be adjusted!!! In total after two years of treatment I will have paid almost $800

If you want great dental care at a great price, this is the place to go. Your treatment will require multiple visits, so if you don't have the time, don't go. I had a receding gum line and was quoted $5,000 for gum restoration surgery from a regular periodontist. I made an appointment with NOVA and had the surgery done for $850. You first have an evaluation appointment to see if they can even assist you. Then you go for more appointments to plan the treatment strategy. Since they are residents, they take pictures to use in their classes as part of the learning experience. The director of the periodontal office assisted my resident on all procedures. I always felt comfortable with the treatment they provided. The students and staff want to make sure they provide the best solution for the patient. They are not worried about making money. The facility is clean. The valet parking is complimentary and required. You check in on the first floor and they direct you to your department. I had the cell phone for my resident dentist and she always responded quickly when I contacted her with questions.
