The best part about Dr. E & his team is they are very attentive to your needs. I had a crown done here and would recommend them for this procedure. It took two tries to get the crown right and I like a dentist who tries until both he & I are satisfied with the result. I told Dr. E something didn’t feel right after the first fitting and he bought me back in to take a look and adjust the crown to better fit me. His assistant Meghan was very professional and caring throughout the process which is what I look for when I’m getting something like this done. I am glad this was the team that took care of me.

5 stars for each and every time I have visited this office over the past 3 1/2 years. I am not an easy dental patient. I have had head trauma and tons of dental issues throughout my life. Dr. Richard Eidelson AND his amazing staff have been gems. Dr. E spends time explaining treatments & options. He is present and thoughtful. He listens. He is pragmatic & his work stands up and holds up. His staff are rock stars. I seriously have not interacted with a warmer & efficient staff ever. It’s just such a blessing to go to a place and have dental work that normally gives one so much anxiety! Can you say you look forward to going to your dentist?

I have been a patient of Dr. Eidelson for over 15 years. He is a great dentist and i recommend him to anyone looking for a new dentist. He just did my first implant and yes, I felt the sticker shock but his charges were similar to what my research said it would cost. He uses cutting edge tech, I feel confident Im getting good quality denistry and he will always fit me in if I have an emergency. He makes me laugh too!

I went in for a consultation and Dr. E was laughing and very unprofessional during my visit then kept cancelling appointments on me last minute. The only nice person was the receptionist.

Our family has been going to Dr. Eidleson for a decade. He and his staff are always professional and courteous. I’ve been there several times since the pandemic and the office and equipment have made me feel very safe. Thanks for all you do.

From top to bottom, Dr. Eidelson and his team are the best. I have been a pain to work with due to my work schedule. No matter how many times I reschedule or cancel, Dr. Eidelson never takes it personally and understands that life gets hectic. He will call you personally and discuss things with you, I have never had that before. Hes flexible, understanding, and does excellent work. Im a tough critic, so trust me hes the best.

I was looking for a new dentist and a friend recommended Dr. Eidelson. I couldnt have been more happy with my experience at his office. After the most thorough dental exam Ive ever received, I was told I had to get an extensive cleaning done but was moving out of the city within the week. Dr. Eidelson and his staff worked with my tight schedule to squeeze me in for several appointments so that I could get the care that I needed. Dr. Eidelson is honest, takes time to explain what is going on, and its clear he has your best interests at heart. Additionally, during this crazy time I felt very COVID safe in the office, as the staff is taking all the necessary precautions.

Dr. Eidelson apparently does not think his hygienist should wear a face shield. He believes it protects only the hygienist and not the patient. This is contrary to every piece of information from the CDC. He advised a procedure that no other dentist in 40 years has felt I needed. I felt he was trying to upsell me with an unnecessary procedure that is much more costly than a routine cleaning.

Honestly, I choose this place based on its proximity to my house, but it’s awesome. A nice, very clean office with a super friendly, proficient staff. I had some crown work done by Dr Eidelson and his work was meticulous! He and his staff are compassionate and very helpful. I would highly recommend this location to anyone looking for a dentist!

I started going to Dr. Eidelson 10 years ago with a dental emergency. He was able to see me right away. Great teeth dont run in my family. Ever since my first visit Dr. Eidelson has gone above and beyond to transform my difficult teeth into something I can be confident in. With his great team of extremely competent dental assistants, hygienists, and dental surgeons he has been able to solve every issue that has arisen. This includes fillings, crowns, and implants all without changing offices. He has been so great that I got my husband to receive his gingivitis treatment in his office. I am confident that Dr. Eidelson always has my best interests in mind and he has been flexible in the past when money was tight. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

Dr Eidelson and his entire staff are AMAZING!! From my very first visit, his entire staff has been extremely welcoming and attentive. Once I started my journey with Invisalign, they have patiently explained every step along the way. Given my busy travel schedule, they have also been EXTREMELY accommodating and responsive to emails to ensure that I stay on the right path with my journey to straight teeth.At one point, I dropped trays on the floor at a friend’s house and then forgot the next set of trays at my office before a work trip. When I went in to let them know I had taken a few steps back on my trays given all of these challenges, they give me tools to sterilize the trays that I dropped and help me understand the plan to get back on track. They are such a huge blessing! I would give them ten stars if possible 😊

I have been a patient of Dr Eidelson’s for the past 4 years. Recently, I had a crown placed. There were multiple complications afterwards. Dr Eidelson never gave up and continued to work with me in order to save the tooth and get the crown placed permanently. I can’t thank him and his office staff enough, always accommodating to my schedule and genuinely concerned about me.

I came into this office with an open contact from sloppy dental work provided by another dentist. This office was extremely nice and accommodating. They accurately assessed the issue and fixed the open contact that was causing me pain for over a year. It was clear the entire time I was there that they were not merely concerned with conducting the procedure, but they took special care and attention to make sure the procedure was done properly. Because of Dr. Eidelson and everyone that works here, I can finally eat food comfortably on the left side of my mouth without worrying about pain surging into my gums. I highly recommend this dentist.

If I could give a zero I would. Meg is awesome however Dr Eidelman needs a few lessons on customer service. I paid $1,400 for a deposit (that none of their documentation states is not refundable) and cant get it returned! I received nothing! My FSA company has had to get involved. Hes nothing more than a pushy conman.

I just had a recent visit at Dr. Eidelsons to get a whitening and a cleaning done. It was a great experience and I didnt have to wait at all. Although Dr. Eidelson isnt in close proximity to my house, I continue to come to his office and make the commute in order to get good dental care. I feel comfortable with not only Dr. Eidelson, but his staff included. They are welcoming, and Meg is always helpful and flexible during the few times that I have needed to reschedule. I give Main Street Dental five stars because of the positive experience i continue to have. I would recommend them to any friend or family!

Review №22

I needed a new night-guard/retainer for sleep bruxism and to keep my teeth in line. The first one Dr. Eidelson had made wasnt exactly what I was looking for, so he sent off my old one (from a previous dentist) to the lab and asked them to recreate it as closely as possible. The second one was exactly what I was looking for, and he let me keep both for the price of one. He really cares about making his patients happy and went out of his way to make sure I was satisfied with the product.

Review №24

I came here on an emergency appointment based on a friends reference after I had chipped my tooth. Having never been here before, I was expecting a lot of run-around and unnecessary fees. I was pleasantly surprised to find quite the opposite. I was seen right away and they took care of my tooth so efficiently and friendly that I immediately scheduled an appointment for a cleaning. I normally cant stand the dentist but this place makes you feel comfortable and at home, like old friends. I would highly recommend this place for their excellent work and professional & friendly manner.

I had a lot of work done on my teeth over the past year and Dr. Eidelson did a fantastic job. I had two root canals on my front teeth, and two crowns on my front teeth as well. Along with teeth whitening to round it all out. This is the happiest I have ever been with my smile and my teeth.

Review №28

Best dental experience Ive ever had!The office was clean and spacious, and Dr. Eidelson was absolutely wonderful. He is very experienced and professional, and he also has a great personality. He will never push you into getting a procedure like other dentists do. I was presented with all of my options and together we determined what the best plan of action was for me. There was little to no discomfort during my procedure and I couldnt be happier with my result!Dr. Eidelson puts your needs first (including your financial needs) and makes the entire process feel relaxed and stress-free.I have been to several dental offices and this was by far the very best. Give them a try if you can!Plenty of parking too!

The professionalism of Dr. Eidelson and his staff is outstanding. I went in for a cleaning and a new crown for my implant. During these times of COVID I can tell you that all the precautions were taken by everyone on staff. From temperature taking down to wearing masks and shields, gloves, and so on. They put me at ease very quickly. I couldnt ask for a better experience! Everyone on staff is absolutely amazing. I cannot thank them enough for everything they have done for me and anyone else who walks through their doors. Thank you ALL for providing an experience that is second to none!!!!

Dr. Eidelson is always super personable and accommodating. I chipped my front tooth with my sisters Florida wedding only 2 weeks away. He was able to get me in almost immediately and went out of his way to help me and get my tooth fixed before the big event. He and his associates did a great job! Since I had previously chipped the same tooth, my insurance would not cover the new filling so he gave me a great price knowing Id have to pay out of pocket. I would highly recommend Dr. Eidelson to anyone!

Dr. Eidelson is simply the best and most caring doctor I have ever worked with!! As a wedding present, Dr. Eidelson gave my fiance and I FREE teeth whitening before our wedding. It is the small, thoughtful acts like that that Dr. Eidelson is always doing for his patients. He goes above and beyond the call of dentistry by making each patient feel like family.

Dr. Eidelson and the entire staff.. Tefta, Meg, Lisa, Lisa, Stewart are THE BEST! Growing up I have never like going to the dentist and never really like any of my past dentists until I found Dr. Eidelson. Now I actually love everyone in his office. If you want a dentist that truley cares about every one that walks in. This is the place to go! They have made my family feel that I am truly part of him family. I have beem seeing Dr. Eidelson for at least 10yrs now.

Dr. Eidelsons assistance on Saturday, August 3, 2013 was priceless. I had snapped my front tooth off at the gum line while traveling to Philadelphia for a weekend of wedding festivities. And I had business meetings in Denver the following Monday and Tuesday. I was frantic, yet knew that the likelihood of finding help was low. He certainly saved the weekend and my business meetings on Monday and Tuesday.His work was done quickly, creating a temporary tooth and bonding it in place so that I could continue with my schedule. He was willing to stay after hours on Saturday and handled the procedure without staff available. His care for my plight and his skill were equally appreciated.His temporary fix is still intact. My Dallas dentist said that Dr. Eidelson did good. The bottom line is that Dr. Eidelsons emergency help allowed me to participate in a very special set of family events on Saturday night and Sunday afternoon that I would have been hesitant to have attended. And, my client never knew I had an issue that would have distracted them at this critical time in our case.I highly recommend this kind and skilled dentist.

New to the area, I decided to try Dr. Eidelson as I was looking to straighten my teeth. I did Invisalign Express - and when my bottom teeth did not straighten to his/my satisfaction, he successfully negotiated with Invisalign on my behalf to do an additional round without incurring significant additional cost. The end result is completely straightened teeth. Also worth noting, the office staff are incredibly friendly and accommodating.

Review №39

I went to Dr. Eidelson last week very upset because my front tooth had awful brown staining ruining my perfect smile. Dr Eidelson was goofy and calmed my nerves with jokes. I in turn joked that I could coach him on his bedside manner if he would fix my tooth. He offered to talk to my mother on the phone as I explained to her what he was saying while in tears. (even though i am 27) He said he didn’t know what the answer was but he was sure he could figure it out. Sure enough, I became a patient, and a week later got a teeth cleaning better than ever before, With the use of a fancy special water pick- I was good as new!!! I will never go to the mall dentist again. Now I’m still considering the bleaching as an extra, but only because I know I can put my faith is Dr. Eidelson and co! If only he could stay at the center city location ....

Dr. Eidelson is an amazing dentist. I cant recommend him enough.First of all, hes incredibly good at his work. He responds to your particular problems and customizes his approach based on your specific needs. He has developed many innovative ways of practicing dentistry that are easier on the patient, less expensive, and just simply better than what other dentists do. I have gone to dentists who just did whatever would be the most costly treatment or they just had a one-size-fits-all approach. Dr. Eidelson thinks about whats best for you, not for him. Hes highly respected by his peers.He is also very kind and very sweet. Everyone in his office seems to get along and like each other, and you just feel very cared for when youre there. The other dentists in the office and the assistants all talk about how much they have learned and how much they like working there. He also does a lot of work for charity, and he goes to poor countries and helps people who have no access to dental care.Dr. Eidelson is also great at explaining what hes going to do and giving you the right preparation. He doesnt do too much all at once, so you get time to recover from any difficult procedures. He minimizes your pain and discomfort, so even if he has to do something serious, you get through it okay and you feel like he knows what hes doing.Most importantly for me, Dr. Eidelson knows how dental insurance works and he will do all he can to minimize your out-of-pocket costs. He once rescheduled an appointment with me because he realized it would be cheaper if I saw him a month later than we originally planned. He gave me the option of having the earlier appointment, but he explained to me that I could save a lot of money if I took the later appointment. I dont think many other dentists would do that.All of this is just to say that hes a great dentist and a great guy. He should be your dentist.

In my several visits to Dr. Eidelmans office, I have found him to be an excellent dentist who is up with the latest in dental technologies and practices. He is flexible on short notice for emergencies: chipped filling, etc. Plus, his staff is very friendly and helpful. Finally, Dr. Eidelman seems like a nice guy and is fun to talk to while at the office.

I’ve been a patient for a little over a year and I couldnt be happier with the outcome and experience of my dental work with Dr. Eidelson. My first appointment was for an unexpected breakage to my tooth. What could have been an overwhelming experience was quite the opposite. Dr. Eidelson and his staff walked me through the treatment process, what to expect, as well as, creating a comprehensive treatment plan for my overall oral care.Everyone at the office is not only friendly and sociable, but also deeply care about the quality of treatment and maintain the highest standards in the final product. (I’ve actually stopped in with my husband for his appointments, and Dr. Eidelson has checked on my teeth just to make sure that his work remains to his standards.) This is a forward thinking dental practice in both the services offered to patients, new technologies used in the exam rooms and the overall experience of the visit. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a dentist.

I was there today made an appointment with him. This about affordable is a lie unless your rich. He stated that he preferred implants they cost 10 to 30 thousand. Best solution was denture inwhich he dont like doing. Without a care. Took the blue napkin off my neck and walked away. Also 3-D xrays are 300 hundred dollars in cash. Smh. I just cried .what a waste of time.

I met Dr Edelson back in 2011 while battling breast cancer in the third stage I must mention that I did not have any dental coverage he created an affordable payment plan for me that helped me correct the problems that were going on in my mouth I am currently still a patient of Dr Edelson still without any dental coverage maintaining my oral hygiene on a very affordable payment plan that Dr Edelson has developed for me. Dr Edelson is a great dentist very honest kind and most of all empathic he is very hands on and willing to help in anyway I am so grateful to him as my dentist.

Ive had a great experience with Dr. Eidelson and his staff. It started 5 years ago when I chipped a front tooth while biking. It occurred on a Saturday and I called the office on Sunday. Dr. Eidelson was able to get me in on Monday morning. We were able to take care of the tooth immediately and I was even able to have a root canal prior to an international flight on Monday night.Since then, I had a crown put in but I managed to break the tooth under the crown. Dr. Eidelson tried to save the tooth by inserting a post but I broke that too. Finally, in the fall of 2017, we decided that it would be best to remove the tooth and put in an implant.After multiple visits and great work by the staff to keep me looking normal, I have the implant and I am very happy about it.Dr. Eidelson did all that he could to save the tooth. His staff was professional, accommodating and really focused on how my teeth looked. I travel back and forth from Boston and they always managed to get me in when needed.If you are looking for a dentist that really cares, Dr. Eidelson and his team will deliver.

Review №48

Dr. Eidelson and his team are the best. I originally went to him after a decade being out of dental care, due to a bad experience in my early twenties. Then I chipped a tooth and needed a dentist ASAP. Dr Eidelson was recommended to me by a friend and was able to squeeze me in, same day, and fixed my chipped tooth. He then came up with a treatment plan to get me caught up on 10 years of neglected dental care. That was 3 years ago. Since Dr. Eidelson and his team have straightened my teeth with invisible braces, addressed my gum disease with scaling treatment, filled my cavities, and replaced 2 crowns that were put on when I was a kid. I have never been happier or more confident with my teeth and smile (and relieved that I finally got back into dental care). A million thank yous to Dr. Eidelson and the team. Would strongly recommend to anyone who needs a dentist.

Review №49

Considering my complicated dental history, calling Dr. Eidelsons office was one of my better decisions this past year. I was born missing both of my adult lateral incisors and received a temporary fix from a local dentist who did not do much cosmetic dentistry. For roughly 11 years I had temporary filling that helped make my canines look similar to what lateral incisors should look like. While this sounds like an easy resolution, this temporary filling would stain easily, broke on multiple occasions, and had a negative impact on my level of confidence.When I was finally ready to have the teeth fixed permanently, I stumbled upon Dr. Eidelsons contact information while looking for cosmetic dentists within the Philadelphia area. Upon initial consultation in his office, I was immediately comfortable. He took the time to get to me know me, explained in detail what my options were, the timeline of the process, and answered all of my questions thoroughly. Not to mention, his staff members, including receptionists & dental hygienists, were extremely friendly and welcoming to me as a new patient. They are all extremely efficient, hardworking, and take time to get to know their patients (which to me is rare and very important as a patient).Needless to say, the work he did was phenomenal. I could not be happier with my smile and what it has done for my confidence level. I would refer him to anyone in need of dental services, cosmetic dentistry, dental procedures, etc. Dr. Eidelson and his team are great and it is guaranteed to be an enjoyable and comfortable experience!

My front teeth look better than they ever have Dr. Eidelson transformed my four upper front new crowns into a beautiful natural smile .they do not look like crowns nor do they look fake. They look like real teeth. he even changed the size and shape of my crowns to look better proportionally than my teeth wer originally .My uncle .a retired board certified dentist from ohio has said i have one of the most complex set of issues in dentistry. My uncle.who in addition to his practice gave the dental boards across the country at such schools as the univ of pa n temple univ dental schools is in awe of dr eidelsons ability to resolve all my dental problems. Dr eidelson and his staff didnt just perform the dentistry for all of my issues in one office which was incredible not to hav to go to other specialists for ea step of my case but he alone managed a treatment plan that resolved all my issues which included endodontia implants orthodontia crowns veneers bite guards as well as correcting my bite to help w my tmj.im ecstatic n cant stop smiling to show off my new teeth. I recommend him and his knowledgeable caring thorough staff to everyone

The staff is great here and goes out of the way to make you comfortable. Ive been to a few different dentists in Philadelphia because of an insurance change, but for the last year and a half have stuck with Dr. Eidelsons practice.THe office is really clean and well run and a lot more tech savvy than the last guy i went to - they use digital xrays and computer 3-d views of your mouth. The dental assistants are really thorough and take a lot of time for regular checkups and teeth cleaning - and Dr. Eidelson also takes his time and is great at explaining or answering any questions.And the best thing is they have Saturday hours - very convenient! I can highly recommend this place.

Review №53

I first came to Dr. Eidelson’s office on South Street a few years ago after visiting and researching a few other dentists in the city. He has a very warm and welcoming office with a very professional staff. They have an office on 11th & South which I normally go to but I just visited his new office on 15th and JFK which is better for me since I work at 17th and Market and can “sneak” an appointment in if need be.Dr. Eidelson is quiet possible the best dentist I have ever met. Not only is he at the top of his industry, he takes the time to make you feel comfortable and explain everything. I have an under bite and many people told me to just get orthognathic surgery to fix my smile. Dr. E worked out a treatment plan to help my smile without surgery. Also they gave me my first cleaning where I felt completely relaxed and no pain. I normally dread going to the dentist but after working with Dr. E and his staff I actually look forward to it. Dr. Eidelson has actually worked on a lot of high profile individuals as well. My mother actually flew out from Southern California to have Dr. Eidelson help her with veneers. Another important thing is that he always stands by his work.
