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.
I had such a great experience at Riccobene! Aury + Nikki in the front were both so kind and helpful. I have a lot of nerves when it comes to the dentist, and they both made me feel welcomed and calm. Chris, my hygienist, was very friendly and thorough. Dr. Farhan was great as well, and talked me through the whole process and treatment. Both of them were very knowledgeable and helpful! I highly recommend the whole team :)
The hygienist and the doctor are top-notch. Excellent patient care, cheerful atmosphere, and the entire staff is very friendly.
I had an excellent experience at Riccobene Associates. From the moment I walked in, I felt comfortable and well cared for. The staff were welcoming and professional, making sure I was at ease every step of the way. The dentist was thorough, gentle, and took the time to explain everything in detail. It’s clear they prioritize their patients’ comfort and well-being. I highly recommend this office for anyone seeking quality dental care!
Riccobene is my favorite dentist to visit routinely! Though there are many offices, I have frequented the Garner location for years. The staff is somehow always consistently kind, patient, helpful and it is kept clean. [...] Always a five-star experience for me!
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!!
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!
Great place. Dr. Smigiel pulled 2 teeth and didn’t feel a thing. Made a temporary bridge that looks great. Aimee is the greatest dental assistant. Returned to get fitted for a bridge. Wore the temp bridge for 4 weeks. The permanent bridge was put in yesterday. It looks and feels great. Dr. Smigiel did a great job.
I had been awake all night the night before with a toothache, and I called in this morning to see if I could get an appointment, and they took me in. The doctor looked at it and determined it needed to be extracted. She was pleasant and had it out before I knew it. Everyone was so nice.
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.
Great service, very friendly and understanding. No judgment at all. They even take kids, that's my next step is get my kids scheduled when I go back tomorrow. Awesome place
My kids and I have been going to Riccobene ever since we moved here in 2018. We've always been well taken care of. Everyone has been personable and understanding when I have to bring our baby to my appointments. The dental hygienists have always done an awesome job with each of us. The dentist is also thorough with his exam at the end. My kids love going to the dentist. Probably because they know they'll get little toys at the end for being helpful during the appointments.
Our family is new to the area, and today was my first visit to Riccobene Associates Dentistry. It was an absolute pleasure. My hygienist and Doctor were professional, kind, and attentive. I am so thankful for landing on their doorstep. A million thank yous.
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 Associates!
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.
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.
My family and I are extremely satisfied with our decision to choose Riccobene Dentistry! The staff is remarkably friendly and kind! What a great experience!
Always receive great care. Always able to get appointments quickly when necessary. Very attentive and detailed and make sure everything is expertly and carefully done, and always willing to answer questions and explain treatments fully.
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!
This was by far the BEST experience I have ever had going to the dentist! The staff was incredible - Emily could not have been kinder and more helpful during my booking and check-in - and Carin - my hygienist was exceptional! She was thorough, friendly, and put every bit of my anxiety to rest. Dr. Adam Smigiel (and Stella of course!) made the whole experience a joy and I left feeling amazed and grateful to find my new dentist!
When I tell you this office is the best in the area, I am not exaggerating. My family and I just transferred here in the spring due to the lack of standard care at another facility, and Riccobene has far exceeded our expectations. Kind staff, check. Convenient location, check. Efficient and high level of care during the procedure, double check. If you’re tired of waiting months to get into your dentist's office only to forget you scheduled 6 months down the road, then you really need to do yourself a favor and give this office a call.
Today was my first visit here and I absolutely love them! Everyone from the front desk person, hygienist and Dentist are extremely friendly and kind. Jamie was my hygienist and she was amazing. She explained everything she was doing and talked me there every step. She made me feel so comfortable. This will definitely be my new dental office.
Just moved to area so needed a dentist. Found one close to home and made appointment. Wow, my experience was fantastic. Everyone was friendly, professional and happy to meet me! It was the absolute best experience I ever had in a dental chair! Would recommend them to anyone!
I called for an appointment on Tuesday because I had a toothache coming on. I got an appointment for Thursday. Very fast, in my opinion. Got a full checkup and cleaning. Everyone was very nice. I felt like a VIP. Thank you.
I moved to Charlotte fairly recently and have been to Riccobene Ballantyne for my past 2 cleanings. The staff is so kind and welcoming. Kelly was my hygienist on my most recent visit and she made the whole experience very comfortable and left my teeth feeling great. Dr. Ge is very clear about what treatment is needed and why. I am very happy about my choice of dentist in Charlotte.
This was my first visit to Riccobene in Greensboro, NC. I went for a routine exam, cleaning, and X-rays, and Nicole, my hygienist, is the best!! I can honestly say this is the best teeth cleaning I've ever had! Excellent experience. Doctor and receptionist are super too!
Going to the dentist is something I never look forward to, to be honest, but I must say I had an exceptional experience here. Everyone made me feel so comfortable, so welcoming. Everything was Amazing before I walked in. I was kind of nervous, but once I got in from the front desk to the dental assistant, she was soo nice and very knowledgeable!! made me feel really comfortable, which was greatly appreciated, thank you. The dentist was amazing, never felt anything at all!!!. He was very professional and knew exactly what he was doing. Thank you again, Y’all really made my experience exceptional
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.
Great experience today. 1st time visiting with Riccobene. Good and thorough dental examination with multiple specialists, including the Dentist. Left with respect and admiration, and looking forward to the dental work they will do on me.
I was so nervous to have my wisdom teeth pulled but the team here was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. They were able to give me peace of mind both before and after my procedure. They were also fast and flexible with my schedule.
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.
Amazing experience. I have a lot of anxiety about going to the dentist, but they have done such a great job of making me feel comfortable and taking care of me well. Excellent service, and they are the nicest people.
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.
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.
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!
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!
My family and I have been beyond satisfied coming to Riccobene for over 5 years. Everyone is always super helpful, courteous and professional. They must treat their employees just as well as they treat customers because everyone is always so nice!!!!
Great experience and wonderful staff! It was my first time here, and I called in and needed an appointment ASAP. Nikki was so helpful and kind to squeeze me in their schedule the same day. Que and Dr. Farhan were very knowledgeable, accommodating and addressed all medical needs, with appropriate bed side manner. Everyone is very welcoming and friendly - thanks y’all!
I'm new to the area and was recommended to the office by a friend, and I had a great experience! The staff was so friendly and helpful! I would recommend this office to anyone.
I’ve been coming here for years now (about 5) and have had great experience each time. Very pleasant front desk, dental assistants, and dentist (and anyone else I missed) have all been wonderful. They also don’t seem to recommend work that doesn’t need to be done, but only what is needed. I drive here from Gastonia just to keep coming here!
I took my very elderly mother, who has Alzheimer's, to Riccobene. She had a loose tooth, and I also wanted to get a general assessment of her dental well-being. The dentists were AMAZING, in spite of the MANY challenges she presented. I am so appreciative of their excellent care and good advice for us moving forward. The office was clean and everyone was friendly. THANK YOU!
I’ve received outstanding care from Riccobene Associates! The entire staff is friendly, welcoming, and truly makes you feel comfortable from the moment you walk in. The dentists are honest and take the time to explain every step of your treatment, never pushing unnecessary procedures. It’s refreshing to find a dental office that genuinely cares about their patients and provides such high-quality, trustworthy care. Highly recommend!
The team at Wake Forest Riccobene has been very welcoming to me and my family of 5. The doctor is professional, caring, thoughtful, and has a good sense of humor. His assistants explain everything so well. We have seen both hygienists and even some temps when they were out on vacation, and had nothing but a pleasant experience. The office is very cozy; it's not a huge office, which I like. Don't hesitate to give them a try!!!
First off, I am a little nervous going to the dentist but was right away put at ease by Ms. Aury at the front desk. Such a pleasure to check in with and talk to. Wait time was very short, about 5 minutes and Ms. Giselle called me back. Never experienced a first appointment as pleasant as this. Professional but not overly so, provided the human part of the evaluation too. She totally eased all of my apprehension. Then Dr. Farhan did his exam. He listened to my concerns then explained everything to me and suggested a plan of attack. This was the best first appointment experience at a dentist I have ever had. Think I have found my permanent dentist… Wish I could give the whole office ten stars
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.
The dentist, dental techs, and staff are incredibly helpful and great at their job. They have provided great care, and I humbly appreciate their service to the community. Thank you for taking care of our mouth stones.
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.
What a great dental experience! Staff were all very helpful and friendly, and made sure to be aware of my time and comfort level throughout the entire process. Would strongly recommend!
Deliah rocks! So kind and sweet! Dr Melissa is awesome too, professional, and genuine. it is so nice to feel welcomed at the orthodontist!
I had the most wonderful experience at Riccobene Ass. Family Dentistry on yesterday! I've always had dental anxiety because every one that I've visited, always did something wrong, but here, was totally different. My dental hygienist made me feel comfortable and she was very gentle while working on me. She told me everything that she was doing to me from start to finish and listened to my concerns. My dentist was the same - he eased my fears and made me eager to come back for further work that needs to be done so that I can comfortably smile again! Thank you so very much for being professional, caring and understanding!
When I tell you I've NEVER had a better team of dentistry people I mean it! I can't stop telling people everywhere how compassionate Dr Farhan and his assistant Que were. I'm 62 and still have anxiety at the dentist. But they really did a great job in explaining everything. Also the front desk, Ms Nikki is marvelous! she helped me with everything! This is a Family of people who are Ginuwine. Kudos again🙌🏽💯🥰
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!
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!!!!!
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.
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.
We are so happy to have found a GREAT dentist's office! They were able to accommodate my whole family in one afternoon, within a week of first calling. Everyone at the office was so kind and friendly, as if we had known each other for years. I could not recommend this office more! 5+ stars!
I always have a good experience at the Garner Riccobene office. The check-in is always quick and the staff is friendly and efficient. The dentists and hygienists are thorough and don’t try to “upsell” you on unnecessary work. Including X-rays, I was in and out in 30 minutes for my last six month checkup. Checking out is just as quick and efficient. Five star service.
The doctor and her staff are amazing. They were so patient and accommodating with us and our 3-year-old triplets on their first "big kids" dental visit. Thank you for making the dentist a pleasant experience for them.
I cannot say enough great things about Dr. Papio and her incredible team! From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and cared for by everyone in the office. Dr. Papio’s expertise with Invisalign was clear from the start, and I couldn’t be happier with my results – my smile has never looked better!
Going to Riccobene associates was a excellent experience all staff members was so down to earth I wouldn't mind telling everyone to come to them. Since moving down here from New York we haven't found a dentist office that was friendly and reasonable on prices so I'm glad me and my family found this office. Thank you
They are very attentive, efficient. Their dentist are very nice and kind. My daughter had a great experience.
Today was my first visit to this dentist. It was a wonderful experience. I get very anxious when I go to the dentist but the staff there made me feel comfortable. The dentist and dental hygienist were both very gentle. The office was very clean. Staff were very friendly and professional. They explained everything before doing it, which was very important to me, and it helped me to feel more relaxed.
Today was the first visit for my parents, and the service of the entire staff was absolutely amazing. Everyone was extremely helpful and patient with my parents, making for a pleasant experience for them both. I’m glad that we chose this practice for their dental health needs.
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
Wonderful experience. I had not been to a dentist in a long time and was very anxious about going today. The dentist & staff were just so genuinely caring. The dentist took a great deal of time with me, explaining possible treatment plans. I felt so much better! Would highly recommend!!
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!
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!
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.
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!!
Wonderful service, kind staff, and they’re quick and efficient. I was very pleased with my first visit. I would 10/10 recommend this dentistry to friends and family. I was able to get my consultation visit in and cleaning before the end of the year. Thank goodness they were able to fit me in. I am extremely grateful!
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!
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!
First off, I have high anxiety going to the dentist. The staff at Riccobene put me at ease. They were very kind, supportive and patient. Would highly recommend them. Actually, looking forward to my next appointment!
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.
Having recently relocated from Nashville, I needed to find a new dentist and was recommended to Riccobene Associates by a colleague. I am certainly glad that I took them up on the suggestion. Highly recommended!!!
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!
Both my dental hygienist and the doctor did an amazing job. They were very friendly, and you could tell that they genuinely cared about you. Plus, I love the clean and modern new facility.
I had a great experience getting ALL four of my wisdom teeth removed. Though I was nervous about the surgery, the dentists made me very feel comfortable and at peace. The procedure went by quick and was painless.
5/5 stars. This was my first time to the dentist in years, So naturally I was nervous; however, the staff was so friendly and well coordinated I felt so comfortable immediately. I can tell they enjoy working there and as someone who has anxiety about every little detail they put my mind at ease.
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!
This was my first visit… from the receptionist who was lovely to the X-ray technician another enjoyable person to the doctor, who listened to me to the hygienist, again was lovely. I felt very comfortable and welcomed to this grand group.
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've been to many establishments in my lifetime, and I am here to tell you that Riccobene Associates Family Dentistry has to customer service. I've been here twice on behalf of my son. As I sit in the waiting area, the receptionist greets every single person as if this is her home. I haven't seen this type of treatment in years! Keep up the great work
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!
Everyone was friendly and helpful they explained everything to me. And has top-notch. equipment.
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!
I cannot say enough good things about my first visit with Riccobene Dentistry! They really go above and beyond! They took time to explain each and every step in my cleaning and all the what’s and why’s! I’ve never experienced such a thorough dental cleaning in all my life!
The practice is great… The workers in there are great, you know, everybody is so nice and so helpful. I love it there, and I love the way the DENTIST talks to you while he’s doing what he’s doing because it helps to let you know what’s going on.
The staff at the University location is incredibly friendly and welcoming, making me feel at ease from the moment I walk in. Everyone in the office, from the front desk to the hygienists, is genuinely caring and attentive. I truly appreciate them for making my children feel comfortable and at ease during their first visit.
I had to have three small fillings today. It was painless, performed very professionally, the dentist explained everything to me during the procedure, and it did not take a long time. I was very pleased.
A cracked tooth with its jagged edges took me to the University Executive Park Riccobene Associates Family Dentistry office. They were able to fit me in the same day, and I received the most excellent care! Smooth tooth filled and completed with no pain, I am so grateful to the dentists who made my visit as quick and comfortable as possible!! Even the office manager was very attentive and helpful! Thank you so much for your kindness and care!!
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.
The facility is brand new, beautiful, clean, and very high tech. I am looking forward to going back for my follow up! Convenient location close to 77 and in network with my insurance.
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!
As someone with severe dental anxiety, I have never felt more comfortable at a dental office. The entire staff was incredibly helpful and compassionate. Everyone took their time to explain what they were going to do, what they recommended going forward and gave me time to ask questions.
My son Bryce has been a patient with Brush and Floss Orthodontics for almost 4 months now & we absolutely love it. The staff is very friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient. I will definitely recommend Dr. Bassham and staff to friends and family in the Cary area for their braces!
From the first call to the office to the appointment, everyone was very helpful and quick to help me get the results I needed. They were very good at letting me know about each step and the process. Definitely my new dentist office.
I took my son for a routine consultation, and I really like this place, from the receptionist to the end of the consultation with the dentist, we were very well received and very well attended by the staff.
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.
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.
