This was by far the best dental experience I’ve had. As someone with dental anxiety, I can say this was the most comfortable experience I’ve had in going to the dentist, thanks to the staff and doctors!
I have always been a regular at the dentist, but this is by far the best dentist I have ever been to! They are SO caring and helpful, talk you through everything, and actually care about you as a patient. I recommend them to everyone!
The hygienist and the doctor are top-notch. Excellent patient care, cheerful atmosphere, and the entire staff is very friendly.
I had to go to the dentist to get some teeth removed. I was very nervous, but they were very accommodating and helped me relax. Everybody was great. The doctor was excellent. I would recommend them to anyone.
I can always count on ALL the staff!! They listen...they care!! Treated like a family member for regular check-ups (cleanings). Definitely in my corner when there's an issue, resulting in timely quality treatment I can trust. Thank you, Team!
Always a pleasant experience! Dr. Alston is very nice and seems very knowledgeable. I trust brush and floss orthodontics with my son's care. The office is always clean and all the dental assistance and front desk staff are polite and friendly. Everything always operates in a timely manner and we're never had to wait more than 5 minutes to be called to the back. The staff is very accommodating with any requests we have with scheduling appointments or any care related questions. Would certainly recommend.
Great initial consultation. Mandi was great with my kids. Dr. Bassham was clear in her explanations and pictures.
This is the best dentist I’ve been to. Everyone I’ve seen has been super nice and even my daughter who is anxious about everything has always had a great experience here. We’ve always felt comfortable and they don’t try to get you to do unnecessary things. I’d definitely recommend them!
My dental hygienist made me feel comfortable the entire time she cleaned my teeth! She also engaged in conversation, which really calmed me down. She answered all of my questions during my visit and even got me scheduled quickly to get my cavity filled. The front desk staff is also very nice and attentive!
I can’t say enough great things about the doctor and their assistant! From the moment you walk in, the office feels bright, welcoming, and impeccably clean. The entire team is friendly, professional, and truly makes you feel at ease. Dr. Marone has such a kind, calming manner and takes the time to explain everything clearly, making sure you feel comfortable with each step of your care.
The staff is absolutely wonderful. They are very nice and take their time with you. My daughter had a bad experience at her previous dentist, and when I explained that to them. They were very understanding and very gentle. I appreciate them and highly recommend this office.
This was my first time going to Riccobene Associates Family Dentistry. It was super clean, and everyone was super friendly! I loved my dental hygienist; she is fantastic! The dentist was very kind and very professional! If you're looking for the best dentist, please don't look any further! You’re in the right place!
Very nice dental practice, everyone I came in contact with was friendly and professional. New to area here, was recommended by a friend, great choice. Extremely thorough service, feels good to know you’re taken care of. Here’s to years of continued service!
The team they have working together here is the best!! They always make you feel right at home and super comfortable. It makes going to the dentist easy for my kids, because we always get smiles and kindness from their team 😊
While doctor's visits are not at the top of my list of favorite things, both the staff, dental hygienists, and dentist at this office are wonderful. I had an insurance mess up, and they worked with me to do what they could on their end to check daily, reschedule appointments, and check in with me for status updates. In what was a frustrating situation that was completely out of my hands, they made me feel like they would work with me to find a resolution.
I had an excellent experience at this dentist's office. The customer service was outstanding—friendly and efficient from start to finish. I was able to get a same-day appointment to have a crown repaired, and the work was done with impressive professionalism. It’s such a relief to have a trusted dentist here in New Bern, NC. Highly recommended!
I've been going to this location for several years now, wife and kids as well. Always been happy.
Very professional staff, I went today for my first time wisdom tooth extraction and everything went well, they really care about you. I was scared so they made sure I felt well relaxed before the surgery. Everything was nice, strongly recommend.
I was made comfortable due to an injury the staff itself they’re very friendly professional and each time I get my braces tightened & The orthodontist is outstanding and each of the hygienist that I have had his pleasure of Working with are excellent you are doing a fantastic job.
Everyone is so nice. Service is great In and out!
My appointment at Riccobene Assoc. Family Dentistry was extremely good today. Everyone was very friendly, caring, helpful, and professional, and much more. I was seen quickly and then on my way home.
First visit today as a new patient, and I couldn't be more pleased! I was in the waiting room for less than two minutes. The staff was friendly, and my Dentist was very attentive and carefully reviewed my care options. I highly recommend Riccobene and Associates!
This branch welcomes you so that you feel like family. The ladies are phenomenal. My hygienist was very thorough and explained how to improve my flossing technique.
My mom has early-stage dementia, so there’s an internal anxiety associated with doctors' offices. The Riccobene staff was exceptional in comforting my mom throughout her dental procedure. Special thanks to the assistant who provided Mom a blanket, chapstick, and assistance to the restroom. I am her caretaker, but it’s nice to have others who care as well. Thank you all!
Our family had a the BEST experience at the dentist today! Our hygienist, Brooke, was absolutely amazing—gentle, thorough, and made us all feel incredibly comfortable and beautiful cleaned us up. Gina at the front desk was just as fantastic—welcoming, kind, and so helpful. The entire team was kind, patient, and made us feel comfortable from start to finish. Highly recommend!
This was the first time my two year old went to the dentist and I was looking for some place special and we found it here. From the time we opened the door I knew she would love it. It was just so colorful and bright and everyone was so welcoming. The staff was friendly and tried to make her feel so comfortable from the start. The staff was really knowledgeable and overall it was a great first time. She loved it and is looking forward to going back to the dentist. Thank you so much!!!
Receptionist was welcoming a plus! She knew her stuff concerning insurance. The hygienist was friendly, and when she stepped away, she indicated she would be right back, preparing another patient. The dentist is excellent seen her before, and it’s always genuine. I am a Medical Office Manager, and my experience with Riccobene Dentistry is outstanding. This was an emergency appointment got me right in the same day. Thank you for all you do, it’s noticed!
Everyone who works here is Amazing! I have been taking my kids here, and I haven't had one bad experience. Their staff and team are incredible. Keep up the great work!
The office was super clean, the staff were friendly and made both my toddlers' first dental experience amazing! Above and beyond care.
Best place to go for friendliness, professionalism, and expertise. Our dentist was the only dentist who discovered that my tooth was cracked and that a cavity needed refilling! The problem was solved as to why I had such terrible jaw and ear pain. No other places were able to figure it out! I’m so grateful!
I went in for a deep cleaning and fillings with sedation, and it was the most amazing experience I've ever had at a dentist. The staff was incredibly kind, reassuring me every step of the way and making sure I understood what to expect after the sedation. The entire process was quick and easy. If you have dental anxiety, this is definitely the place to go! 10/10 experience.
New location is very nice with state of the art equipment. Very thorough cleaning with suggestions on keeping up on flossing. Dental examination was also meticulous and focused on a few areas to keep an eye on. Excellent staff.
My favorite dental office hands down!! Recently moved to the area and the staff has been friendly, welcoming and beyond helpful when it comes my family’s dental needs. The hygienists provides attentive care and sensitivity with the services they provide and the dentists are beyond informative with providing educational support and a relaxed atmosphere. We will continue our care here in great hands.
Very professional and friendly staff, it was a pleasure having these ladies assisting me with this process. I have anxiety going to the dentist period but, the ladies made me forget all of my worries. Thanks for a pleasant experience.
Brenda was so helpful. She reached out to another of their clinics just to make sure I was able to be treated as quickly as possible. So grateful for the service she provided.
I’ve been going to Dr. Jakubek’s office for almost a decade now. His team is friendly and always ready for each appointment. And he does amazing work! I had him replace some crowns I got when I was younger and they looked much better than what I had. I highly recommend him for your dental needs.
My 9 yo daughter got her braces removed today. We had wonderful experience with Dr Bassham for past 1+ years. Initially we were worried to put my daughter on braces at small age. Dr Bassham gentle, caring and friendly approach to children made my daughter very comfortable. Recommend Dr Bassham for any orthodontist needs. She is very knowledgeable and explain treatment information to parents in detail. We have taken many adhoc appointments when teeth were bothering and they took care of it immediately . Front office associates and assisting staffs were very friendly as well.
My hygienist is amazing! Great energy, very gentle. She listens to your sensitivities and never causes pain. Bedside manner on point! She is such a lovely person. I request her every time because I went from anxiety-ridden tension to relaxed and comfortable with her. She is healing my trauma with dentistry. Such a pleasant experience every time. This beautiful soul needs a raise for sure. She goes above and beyond.
All the staff at Riccobene Associates Family Dentistry that I’ve worked with have been very friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. Questions I’ve had have been answered thoroughly, including follow-up messages and ensuring that my coverage is being utilized accurately. I’ve been impressed with their efforts to make sure that I am getting the most out of my benefits. The dental hygienists I’ve interacted with so far are truly good at what they do. They check and make sure that you’re comfortable, that you understand what’s happening, are friendly and extremely skilled. The dentist and orthodontist I’ve worked with at Riccobene are also fantastic. I had a root canal, and I couldn’t imagine it being a better experience. Top-notch care.
The dentist and assistant were excellent and very patient due to my deafness. They were compassionate enough to communicate via texting. I could have requested an interpreter like last time, but I decided not to since it was only cleaning teeth.
As always, Riccobene hits it out of the ballpark! My orthodontics a bit less painful when the staff are so wonderful and feel like friends! Go Dr. Papio, Lynn, Jenn and Delia! THANK YOU!
For the past year+, Ive been working with Dr.Morgan on the orthodontist side, and she's been absolutely WONDERFUL!!! She's caring, gentle, a perfectionist, and everything you'd want in a orthodontist! Highly recommend and going to miss her after this Invisalign journey
Everyone from the receptionist to the doctor was extremely friendly and professional. The office was clean and bright. The doctor provided helpful feedback on the health status of my teeth and care I might consider going forward.
I was referred to Riccobene Denistry by a friend, and they were Awesome. I was going on vacation soon and needed to get in quickly ( I had just moved here and didn’t have a dentist yet). I called and got an appointment in a day. Everyone was extremely professional and friendly. They were very knowledgeable and provided several recommendations for my care. I will be going back for treatment, and I highly recommend them.
I had such a wonderful experience today! As someone who definitely does NOT like to go to the dentist, I will say today was very pleasant. Check in was fast and every person involved in my care was pleasant and efficient. I would definitely recommend this facility to anyone looking for a low stress dental visit. -Julie G.r 5 year old daughter here for almost 2 years. Every experience has been absolutely incredible. We had an appointment today and the receptionist was chatting with my daughter like they’ve been friends forever, she loved it! Our hygienist was gentle, explained everything she was doing, and was so friendly. My little had x-rays today and the x-ray tech explained every single step to her. The dentist came in and was friendly, quick, and efficient. I highly recommend them!
Everyone in this office is lovely to work with. They are understanding and do their best to meet your needs. They are friendly, funny, and easy-going, while remaining completely professional!
We’ve had an excellent experience with Riccobene Orthodontics in Selma for my son’s treatment. The staff is incredibly friendly and professional, always making us feel comfortable and informed throughout the entire process. They take the time to explain each step of the treatment and ensure my son’s braces are adjusted correctly. The office is welcoming and efficient, and we always feel like a priority. I’m so grateful for the care my son has received, and we’re excited to see his progress!
First visit was awesome. Nikki and staff makes check in process smooth and very comfortable. They are the sweetest. Any questions ask and you will get a response with a nice attitude. Brenda the dental hygienist was very nice and sweet. Dr. Farhan also is a nice and sweet. They make a dentist visit more relaxing. If I can give 10 stars I will.
Completely impressed and Thankful! Yesterday afternoon, my crown fell out.I recently moved to a new state and hadn’t selected a dental office. I called Riccobene in a panic. They were able to get me in this morning! They were all very nice and easy to work with. The doctor was professional, friendly, and able to reset my crown. I am completely thrilled! Thank you!
I haven’t seen a dentist in over 10 years. To say I was nervous about going to one is an understatement. I had a tooth break about a year ago and was terrified to get it fixed. Everyone I encountered in this establishment went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable. After hearing I needed a root canal, I was even more scared. I did not need to be. Everyone was so kind and made me feel extremely comfortable. My dental fears may be gone. Thank you so much.
I had an excellent first visit for dentures. Dr. Riccobene went above and beyond to get my imprints correct. My mouth is small and he adjusted the trays. I definitely recommend him and his staff. They were friendly, professional and kind.
I've not been real good at coming in as I should ,but the office welcomed me back with a smile. They were more than happy to explain everything I needed to know, asked if I had questions, and spent extra time with me to get a new crown in place.
Just had my first visit to Riccobene Associates in Wake Forest, and they went above and beyond in my opinion. I had scheduled a cleaning, and the dental hygienist was thorough in her examination and, as a new patient, thankfully asked how long ago I enrolled in my dental insurance before she performed the cleaning. When I said we switched dental insurance 5 months ago, she double-checked with the office manager on my insurance coverage. The office manager was caring and polite, and informed me that my insurance would not cover a cleaning until after the first six months of coverage. She let me schedule a cleaning for one month later instead. This shows me that they care about not just their patients' dental health but also saving them money when they can. I, for one, really appreciated that. I will be back.
Nikki was absolutely the best she was patient and kind and went out of her way to help with my first visit and a crown that came off this am. Dr Farhan was the best dentist I’ve ever went to. He explained in detail everything and he suggested a treatment plan and Nikki explained the treatment plan he made for me and I am delighted at this decision. You will not be disappointed with this Dental Office; call and make an appointment today!
Cearena was so kind and patient. She also squeezed us in to get two of my kids appointment in one day. Dr Patel was so sweet and thorough. Great experience.
Great experience and customer service!!! I had to go in for an emergency with a broken tooth, and they switched things around to accommodate me immediately...
The best dentist I have visited in a long time is highly recommended. Everyone was extremely friendly, especially the workers at the front desk and the dental hygienist I saw. Had wonderful conversations with everyone!
We always have a positive experience at Riccobene Dentistry. Today we were seen by Dr Patel the orthodontist, she was extremely kind and patient with us. Cearena the treatment coordinator was simply excellent. She worked with us despite the tightness of the schedule (we showed up a little late), she patiently explained our options and she had a huge hug for me and my daughter when we seemed a little overwhelmed. I highly recommend this practice. They are definitely all about helping their patients.
The very best care from every staff member. Attention & listening. Old school values still work & technical competency & clinical skill are the best. Trust is earned.
Everyone I encountered today was very friendly and very efficient and very thorough. I would recommend this dental practice to everyone!
Very impressed with the entire experience. I’ve been a patient with Riccobene for a couple of years, but was going to their Porters Neck location. I loved them and was worried about starting over at a new location. Today was my first experience in Clayto,n which was terrific. Loved my hygienist and the doctor. The entire staff was awesome. Highly recommend this location!
Riccobene Associates Family Dentistry has been fantastic! Everyone is so nice and the feeling I get every-time I go is a family feeling! The work and professionalism used to take care of my teeth has been nothing short of amazing. I am so happy to have found Riccobene. Thanks for everything!
The service and Dental treatment at Riccobene & Associates is second to none. The staff is very friendly and Linda my dental hygienist did an AMAZING job with my cleaning. I highly recommend this Dentistry
I took my daughter here today after dealing with another pediatric dentist who was unable to treat my daughter due to her high anxiety, and WOW, it was a difference of night and day. They are amazing. They were so good with my daughter that they were able to build rapport and make her feel relaxed. I am so happy and wish I had taken my kids here before. I highly recommend this pediatric dentistry for their professionalism and the care they provide.
Great experience staff is very friendly and Knowledgeable. They went out of their way to make sure that I had a pleasant experience. I'm so grateful for choosing Riccobene Associates for my dental needs. The office is very neat, clean and relaxing. I recommend anyone who is looking for a dentist to choose this one.
My care was excellent , warm, friendly, caring and precise. I enjoyed… yes ENJOYED… my time at this dentist completely.
Dr Morgan is thorough, kind, and the epitome of everything a great dentist should be. We are grateful for her patience and gentle way with both of our children. We won’t be going anywhere else so long as she is here!
Very courteous and professional, very clean establishment and my dental hygienist is the absolute best around! I definitely would recommend!
The staff is so friendly! From the front desk to the hygienist and dentist, I felt very welcomed. Had my first visit recently, and always a nice bonus when that included a cleaning and not just exam/xrays. Looking forward to my next cleaning!
Today was my daughter's first time coming to the dentist, and she was extremely nervous. The staff was very nice and polite. They kept us informed during the visit. They work great with kids. My daughter was so happy with her appointment. This is by far one of the best experiences I have had in a while!
Here at the Selma Brush and Floss Orthodontics. They are awesome. So friendly, and they are being very specific about my teeth straighten process. Come on down, get a consultation if you’re considering braces. Wonderful staff.
First visit, everyone was very friendly, the [hygenist] was very good and patient. The doctor was very informative and explained a possible plan for future dental care.
My visit was the best dentist I have ever had. I felt VERY taken care of. All associates of the dentist's office were kind and very attentive. It showed me how I HAVE NOT been taken care of by past dentists. I have told my whole family about Riccobene!!!
It was a smooth and relaxing appt. I was told every detail before it happened as well as the cost. I appreciated the entire visit.
I’ve had a consistently great experience with Riccobene Associates Family Dentistry. The staff is professional, friendly, and genuinely caring. They take the time to explain everything clearly and make sure you’re comfortable during every visit. The office is always clean and welcoming, and their care programs are thoughtful and focused on long-term health. I truly feel like I’m in good hands every time I go. Highly recommend!
I was met by friendly staff who explained every treatment recommended, ran my insurance for them, and set appointment dates. The dentist was professional and thorough. AND I appreciated the parking pass in the adjacent lot.
After years of ducking the dentist I finally decided to go, I was nervous because who knows what they are going to tell me and that sharp hook tool makes me uneasy lol. The staff was so warm and inviting and the dental assistant really helped me relax and not worry. Fast forward to 6 months after my first visit my gums are healthy and teeth looking better than ever. Best dentist office ever!!!
Dr. Morgan is amazing! She is very informative, and emphatic. My daughters teeth look outstanding! The ladies that assist her are also awesome. Overall we had a great experience in her care.
Best Cleaning I’ve had in a long time!!! My hygienist was very thorough, and you can tell she took pride in what she did and how her work was. My teeth felt amazing after and still do. I had a very enjoyable time at my appointment. I also came to them for a previous filling that had cracked, and now I had a hole in my tooth. The dentist was amazing! The office was able to schedule me sooner than later. I also couldn’t have asked for a better Dentist! He was knowledgeable, and you can tell he was a perfectionist who took pride in great work. I was in good hands. My tooth feels amazing and is back to being normal. I won’t be seeing anyone else. Great staff, very helpful, polite, and professional. Thank you so much to everyone there!
Normally, I don’t do too many of these, but to the ladies that helped my daughter Raina today…you truly are amazing. This is never an easy day for parents with a special needs children who are terrified of the dentist for no reason. We appreciate you more than you know.
This was my family's and my first visit to this office. We will definitely be making this office our home office. The entire staff was amazing. Very helpful, friendly, knowledgeable, and straight to the point about what services we needed and didn’t overwhelm us with a lot of unnecessary services that my prior dentist's office listed for us.
The front desk staff was efficient, gracious, and greeted me by name and eye contact. I found that all staff members were the same as above. They continuously asked if I was comfortable and asked if the procedures were causing pain. This was a great experience for me as I am “dentist phobic”.
From making the initial call to the office visit to the staff, this was an amazing experience and I don’t say that lightly because I hate going to the dentist! The staff was friendly. The place was clean. They were extremely understanding, no judgment Zone no shaming, no guilt. …Highly recommend!
I highly recommend Riccobene Associates Family Dentistry. We have been going to this office since relocating to the area. We were very pleased to find a dentist's office that was as good as what we were used to. I recently visited for my regular cleaning which included x-rays. Darby was my hygienist. Darby gave me what felt like the most thorough cleaning that I can remember, but she was so precise and gentle that I could have taken a nap but for the need to be awake to spit every once and a while. She even encouraged me to re-start the wearing of my retainer. Great job Darby, my teeth are as bright as ever.
Very nice staff and office, Kelly was very nice and informative. She really put me at ease. The dentist was very kind also. The ladies at the desk were very friendly. Everything about my initial visit has been awesome!
Excellent customer service; very clean facility; knowledgeable staff; positive experience. Chris was my hygienist and I really enjoyed him. He is clearly an expert in his field but also was very gentle and calming in his work. Dr. Farhan was also a pleasure to work with; he took his time explaining my dental status. He was also patient in allowing me to ask questions. And finally, I don't remember the front desk staff members' names but they were SO NICE and welcoming! I recommend this practice!
Recently had a dental emergency and was having a lot of pain with a crown not fitting quite right and the office staff got me in less than 24 hours after I called and the dentist adjusted my crown in no time and I was feeling better in less than an hour. [...] If you need any work done, absolutely give them a call. You'll have an amazing experience from the incredibly kind ladies at the front desk to the talented dental staff.
They truly just want to help you feel confident about your smile and dental health. I have horrible anxiety when it comes to dentist offices, but I felt comfortable the whole time. Staff is super nice and facility is clean. Highly recommend!!
This was my first visit to Riccobene, and I was pleased with my visit. The place is spotless, the staff were accommodating, and my exam was very comprehensive. Afterward, I had no discomfort, and my teeth felt great.
I have been going here for a couple of years. They are always very nice and welcoming. They work as a team and are very good. Always nice to go there.
It was my first time here, and it was great, just from the front desk to dental assistance and the dentist, everyone was really professional and took great care of me, and I'm looking forward to continuing with Riccobene to get that confident smile back.
I’ve been a patient at Riccobene for three years now, and I couldn’t be happier with the care I’ve received. My kids also come here, and they always feel comfortable and well-cared for. The dental hygienists and dentists are incredibly skilled and compassionate, making each visit a pleasant experience. The front desk staff is always welcoming and efficient, ensuring that appointments and follow-ups are handled smoothly. I highly recommend Riccobene to anyone looking for a top-notch dental office.
I scheduled a cleaning at 8 am on each of my last 2 birthdays. The whole staff came in, sang happy birthday, presented me with a card and a cookie with a candle in it. Great way to start my birthday!
Every aspect of my experience with Riccobene Garner has exceeded my expectations. I was in really bad shape when I started with them, but they fixed all my problems with sedation dentistry. That was 09-2022. I go back every 6 months, and today was one of them. I was again good to go. Thank you to all the great folks who take care of me!!!!!
I just had the best dentist experience! I went for my teeth cleaning and exam with w/X-rays, and everyone who worked there was so nice and friendly. The front desk woman, the hygienist assistant, the hygienist, and the Dentist were absolutely amazing!! Going to the dentist usually isn’t a good experience for me, but this time it was, and I felt so comfortable throughout the whole thing. I highly recommend and will 100% be coming back!
Beautiful, clean & professional facility. I was treated with such great care. They do excellent work.
The hygienists were amazing! Friendly and thorough. This was our 1st visit. The office was taking excellent precautions. We felt safe. They gave excellent follow up suggestions. So happy we found Jakubek Dentistry.
I have had a couple of chips on my front tooth that have been bothering me for a few years. I’ve been told by a couple of other dentists that the chips could only be reshaped, but not filled, which I did not want because I wanted my natural tooth shape. The doctor fixed everything so perfectly and made it look exactly like my natural tooth. He respected my wishes not to shave down my natural tooth and talked me through every step. He is extremely patient, professional, and artistic with the tooth compositing. I am so happy and can’t believe how good my teeth look. His assistant was also so patient and warm. I’m very happy and highly recommend!!
I had a dental issue while traveling, I call them on a Monday morning and was able to be seen that afternoon. Everyone was great and understanding of my needs. They took care of my issue on the same day. I appreciate everyone involved and would highly recommend going to see them if you’re in need of dental care. They will take care of you. Thank you!
I contacted Riccobene Family Dentistry Sept 4, 2025, regarding a toothache I was experiencing. They were very accommodating and scheduled me for an appointment the very next day, which I truly appreciated. Upon arrival, the staff greeted me warmly and made me feel comfortable right away. The check-in process was smooth and efficient, and I didn’t have to wait long before being seen.
