If your child is on the spectrum and you are looking for a great dentist, look no further. My son has autism and he has never had a bad experience with A Twinkle Dentist. Everyone on staff is kind and patient and extremely professional. My son looks forward to his dentist visits and is now able to sit in the chair alone and tolerate an exam and cleaning. My family feel extremely lucky that we found A Twinkle Dentist and we highly recommended them.

My children LOVE coming here. Its weird I never thought my kids would be so excited to go get their teeth clean. From the moment you walk into the office you are greeted by the reception staff. My children love the books, movies that are being played in the waiting area and my son enjoys the video games he can play before going in to see the Dentist. I recommend this place to anyone who has young kids. They do an exceptional job.

This is the best pediatric dentist!!!! Both my kids enjoy coming to the Twinkle Dentist. They look forward to each visit and love the movie, books and video games in the waiting room. Dr. Agrait and staff are very kind and patient with them and ensure they get an overall great experience.

There was a time I truly enjoyed coming here with the kids but times have changed. The doctor is great with them but its the front end staff thats really soured me on coming back. I understand about cancellation policies and their adherence but theres a way to speak to your clients (because thats what we are) without becoming confrontational or condescending. A simple phrase or empathetic behavior would have gone a long way.

I have 2 sons who have been going to Twinkle Dentist for at least 2 years. They have never been afraid to go and sit in the dentist chair to have their teeth cleaned. My youngest is 3 1/2. The staff is very friendly and the office is geared toward kids. It set up in a relaxing way to put the child at ease.I would recommend this dentist to any parent looking for a kind, gentle and caring dentist.

We love love love it here ! My daughter was so traumatized by her initial dental visits that it was hard to get her to go. We found Twinkle Dentistry and the energy here is amazing ! The staff is so welcoming and calming that my daughter is comfortable stepping in on her own and there are no longer any tears ! The dentist is incredible , she takes time to explain everything and makes your child feel comfortable. Definitely recommend this place !

I absolutely love this place! Kids feel at ease, staff is extremely friendly. Office is cute and very kid friendly. I am happy my kids are getting a good dental experience this early on. If they take your insurance look no further.

My twins absolutely love this place ,they look forward to each visit. The staff is super friendly and the environment is perfect for kids. Finding places that are a perfect fit for my child with special needs is always a challenge,  its so refreshing to be able to find someone like Dr.Agrait  who is  kind, patient, gentle and loving. I am so thankful to have found her. I would highly recommend Twinkle dentist for everyone who has a child. This place has encouraged my children to be independent and made every visit a pleasant one.

There are very few dentists in the city that specialize in making children comfortable. Dr. Agrait is a leader in her field, proactive and caring. Her staff is dedicated, professional and a huge help to busy parents. The offices are designed to put children at ease. My daughter has been treated very well and her treatment has included orthodontics. I highly recommend this practice.

We have been bringing our 3 kids to Twinkle Dentist for 8 years now. From the first visit, to the most recent, each one has been beyond pleasant.Our kids do not dread going, in fact, they pretty much look forward to it. From the receptionist to the dental assistant to the doctor herself, every point of contact a the office is warm and puts the kids at ease.Two of our kids have braces ( oldest ones are off now) and that experience is very stressful and time consuming, but again, they do a great job at working with our schedule to accommodate us, and make sure we get the best results.We recommend Twinkle to our friends all the time! Going to the dentist does not have to be a laborious, dreaded task. It can be safe, welcoming and fun for kids and painless for parents as well. :)

We were patients at another dental office. My daughter was so afraid that she refused to go back without throwing a tantrum. We were referred by our pediatrician and this place is the best. Comfortable for adults and very kid friendly. My daughter is so excited about going to the dentist, she wants to go on a regular basis. The staff is great and friendly. I wish going to the dentist was this much fun when I was growing up.

This dental office is absolutely amazing! I love the staff and Doctor Agrait. They take great care in making sure my daughter is calm and relaxed before performing any dental service. My daughter tends to overreact when going to any doctors office and at A Twinkle Dentist they put her at ease. The staff are respectful, courteous and super friendly. I have been coming to this office since 2009 and would not consider going to any other dental office. If I could give A Twinkle Dentist 10 Stars I would. Definitely would recommend to any child who has fears of doctors.

I was referred to Twinkle by my dentist and I have to say that it is such a pleasure to take my son there. The entire team is so caring with my 4 year old son and he is always happy to go back there, even though he has had extensive work done, which would be uncomfortable even for an adult. I think what is most important is that they let the children touch the equipment and that helps them get over their fear and they feel like the learnt and achieved something when we leave, and of course the balloon or toy that the kids get to take home helps too.

We have been patients for 7 years and Dr. Agrait and her team are always amazing, passionate about children and skilled in their care. Her ability to prevent and correct both dental and orthodontic issues for both of our sons is second to none. She saved our oldest sons teeth from a horrible dental disaster and didnt miss a beat. The service is personable and super child friendly from the time you walk in the door until you leave. The kids are always excited to see her, as am I, and we wouldnt go anywhere else.

Review №16

As a child, I did not enjoy visiting the dentist. My 9 year old daughter however...This is because of the warm and welcoming environment that Dr. Agrait and her team have created here at Twinkle Dentist. My daughter goes in on her own to see the the doctor while I sit comfortably and watch a kids movie playing on the projector. Yesterday it was The Little Rascals ;) Before I know it, shes done and we are ready to go.Extremely happy with Dr. Agrait and her team.

My kids LOVE it here. The waiting room is calming and fun, the dentist is so good with very small children, no trauma involved at all. My 3 year old holds the assistants hand and goes back all by herself. There is a ton of positive reinforcement along the way and my children are motivated to not only take care of their teeth, but return for their twice-yearly check ups. THANKS TWINKLE DENTIST! I always recommend you when people ask.~Glass Family

My son (4 years old ) started to go to Twinkle about 2 years ago and since then is getting better and easy to take him. The staff is very friendly and professional and the dentist is excellent. The atmosphere is appropriate for kids making all the process easy for them. I highly recommend.

My two boys have been going to Twinkle Dentist for over 5 years now, and they both actually look forward to their biannual visits! The doctor and entire office staff are fantastic, the toothpaste flavor selections are a huge hit, movies in the chair, and a calm waiting room with movies and video games. Sometimes it hard to get them to leave! Sure its a little different when it visits are to have cavities filled versus a regular cleaning - they dont look forward to that, but Twinkle Dentist makes it as comfortable and smoothas possible. I highly highly recommend them to anyone looking for high quality dental care for their kids!!

We have been coming to Dr. Agrait for years. She is the consummate professional, excellent with children, and we trust her with our childrens dental health completely. The office is immaculate, the staff courteous, and we couldnt be more pleased with the Twinkle Dentist dental practice. 5 stars.

We have been going to Twinkle for two years, and both my daughters have had great experiences. The staff is always really nice, patient and attentive, and Dr. Egrait is sweet and gentle. I am grateful that they associate the dentist with fun, despite having to have some cavities filled.

Ive been taking Luna - 7 and Fritz -10 to Twinkle Dentist since 2011 for basic preventative care and cleaning and now for ortho. My kids actually look forward to their appointment. Even when my son had teeth pulled it went easily and painlessly for all of us. They love Dr Agrait and everyone in the office is professional, friendly, courteous and top notch. The office is kid friendly and theres never a prolonged wait. I highly recommend Twinkle Dentist for your family.

Review №23

Visiting a Dentists office is a scary experience as an adult. Imagine as a parent taking your little one for a visit! Twinkle Dental really makes the entire experience a friendly and non threatening one.You are greeted by friendly front desk personnel and then you enter into a very kid friendly environment. Comfortable chairs, TV monitors where your child gets to choose the movie as well as their favorite flavor for cleaning!I think that what makes it the best experience of all is a wonderful, warm hearted dentist, Dr Agrait! She sits down and explains the entire process. You are able to ask questions about the visuals she uses. Something that is more and more lacking in Healthcare today. Everything is a computer now!I highly recommend this office for young and big kids as well!The only thing missing is an adult dental facility as friendly and welcoming as they are!

I get super excited about taking my daughter to see Dr. Amille and staff. My daughter has been going there from the time she was 4 years old and she now is 7. Our experience at Twinkle Dentist has been professional and friendly. I recommend them to everyone because they are just THAT GREAT!

My kids have been going to this practice for several years with great results. Previously they got a lot of cavities. When we switched practices, Dr. Agrait managed their needs expertly and worked proactively to avoid additional cavities. She is efficient, child-centered and communicative with the parents. Her staff is friendly and supportive. I highly recommend!

Review №29

My twins have been coming here for the pass 5 years and they refuse to go to another dental office. We moved to New Jersey and they still rather come to New York than sit in a new dentist chair. The atomosphere is very comfortable and welcoming and CLEAN. My 7 year old children arent afraid to go sit in the chair to be seen. Dr. Agrait and her staff are exceptional when it comes to pediatric dentistry and because of this service I will continue to come here until they are to old to be seen.

Dr. Agrait and all of her staff were simply wonderful with my autistic 6 year-old daughter. We were referred to her by another practice for a number of serious cavities. Dr. Agrait explained the entire procedure carefully and thoroughly, including the use of sedation. I was thinking to myself, theres no way my daughter is going to lie there while having multiple cavities filled with just nitrous oxide! Through kindness, patience, and compassion on the part of the dentist and her staff, my daughter did great! In addition, the cavity prevention regimen they recommended meant no cavities at the next 6 month visit. I highly recommend Twinkle Dentist to anybody, but especially parents of special needs kids for their sensitivity and understanding!

Both of my kids (3 and 4) cant stop talking about their sparkly teeth. Dr. Emille M. Agrait and her team are friendly, happy, and not only help kids feel comfortable but over-joyed to visit the dentist. From the waiting room to the toothpaste flavors this dental office has children and families at the heart of its practice. I cant recommend Twinkle Dentist enough!

Review №33

I started going to Twinkle Dentist since my fist loose tooth. I now have had braces for 10-11 months(?) and I as well as others are amazed with the work that has been done. When someone asks me, Who is your orthodontist? The first thing I answer is, My dentist is my orthodontist people then will tell me that that is extremely convenient and then tell me my teeth look good. Another thing I love is that they have SOOO many flavors of toothpaste and vitamins and for kids this matters. I remember growing up reading books that called going to the dentist a nightmare this confused me a lot, because I actually like going to the dentist. So those book characters might want to consider coming to Twinkle Dentist.-Written by Stephanie P. {a current patient}

My 5 y/o daughter loves going to see Dr. Agrait! Believe it or not, she looks forward to her dentist visit every 6 months. Not only does she love Dr. Agrait (who is quick to engage her and keep her entertained), she loves the office (the facility is really nice and very accommodating to kids) and the staff (very friendly, patient, positive and good energy). I have heard her tell her school mates her dentist is her friend 😍. Overall and amazing experience and I couldnt recommend her more.

My girls have been coming here for over 5 years. The office is clean and modern and very kid friendly. Emily at the front desk is the sweetest and most helpful receptionist. Dr. Agrait is fantastic with kids and has a pleasant bedside manner. She is very thorough and doesnt try to force extra services unnecessarily. I used to travel from New Jersey for appointments (she has Saturday appointments once a month) before I moved back to NY. Thats how much I love this place. Dr. Agrait employees the best people and it shows in how they treat their patients. The only downside is that my current insurance (its subpar) isnt accepted but they do accept most (good) insurance.

My two sons, ages 6 and 4, have been seeing Twinkle Dentist Dr. Emille Agrait since their first teeth. Super kid-friendly waiting room – fun décor, calming low lighting, books, a film projector. Clean, bright, kid-equipped exam rooms - kid’s choice for toothpaste flavor, fluoride flavor, AND which movie to watch during the cleaning. The highlight, Dr. Agrait and her staff. They treat the kids with great respect, explain everything that is going to happen, and answer all their questions (and separately address all parent concerns). My boys LOVE going to the NYC dentist. We have lived in Charlotte, NC for years but we still squeeze in a trip to Dr. Agrait when we are in NYC. (And yes, that sounds precious and crazy, but it’s near the entrance to Central Park, only a small detour on a walk through the city, well worth the effort to have boys excited about dental cleaning.) Oh, consider foregoing a balloon prize. Yes, the toothbrush weighs it down. But 8th Ave gusts claimed several. Finally, a financial note, our insurance covers the full visit in NYC while we pay some out of pocket in Charlotte. Essentially, in NYC, we pay less for more... pediatric dentistry.

My daughter is 5 1/2 years old and loves Twinkle. Since the first visit she never was scared or nervous. Emille and her girls are the best. The practice is such a joy and their facility is up to date and very cheerful.My daughter had a problem with her teeth. Her two bottom adult teeth were coming out meanwhile her baby teeth were still in place. Dr. Emille removed the two baby teeth and the adult teeth are already in their place. She made my daughter feel very comfortable and never scared. Like I already said shes the best!Jacqueline Conigliaro

My daughter has been going to Dr. Agrait at A Twinkle Dentist since she was three. She had a lot of cavities at that time and had been terrified by a couple of other experiences with pediatric dentists, but Dr. Agrait and her assistant Lina were fun and made her feel comfortable and were able to take care of it all. And they did very good work to boot.Weve been taking our daughter to Dr. Agrait ever since, with lots of routine check ups, a couple of years of managing a paletal expander, and now a retainer, and my daughter actually looks forward to going to the dentist, and always has!I cant recommend her enough.

My daughters love Dr. Agrait and her team. Emily, the receptionist greets us with a smile and we always share a good laugh when we visit. Dr. Agrait is gentle and kind to my daughters when they show up for their 6 month cleanings and always leave happy. Dr. Agrait always explains in easy to understand terms everything she is doing and what to expect with their growing and changing teeth. My kids love her and cant wait to go back. Also, Brenda, the dental assistant is very kind and is always willing to do everything to make sure they are comfortable. I wish I had a dentist like Dr. Agrait growing up.

I have never met such a kind and gentle dentist as Dr Agrait. She and her staff are the epitome of professionalism and just what a child needs to feel at easeThat, and the fact that the office is beyond child friendly (think Wiis, books, bean bag chairs and movies) will ensure that Dr Agrait will be our dentist for the years to come.
