The Smilist Dental Smithtown 269 East Main Street, Smithtown, NY 11787

"Please do yourself a favor and do your homework before you get anything done here. I was blatantly lied to about how much something would be covered by insurance. Was told it wouldn’t be over $400 and it ended costing me double that. Very sketchy how easily they are willing to lie about the cost. It would have been fine if Will not be going back, found a much more honest place in centereach that didn’t lie to my face about the worst case scenario out of pocket cost."

"Practice was able to squeeze me in on very short notice. Once I arrived, I was in a chair within 5 minutes. Tammy, the hygienist, was incredibly gentle with me. Hadn’t been to see Dr Arena in a while and she had a lot of work to do with the cleaning. She was great. Then Dr. Arena came in and he was his usual affable and professional self. He is always informative and sets all expectations. Experience was top notch -especially for someone like me who hates going to the dentist."

"This is the first time to this dental practice, and I was very impressed with the doctor and his work. Dr Sishta was very good. I’m very impressed with his work and how he made my temporary look excellent. I will continue with this doctor for my dental work and highly recommend him. Not only is he a good dentist, but a nice person as well"

"Tammy is the best dental hygienist ever. Very thorough, professional, friendly and considerate. Highly recommend her. I was a long time patient of Dr. McLaughlin who recently retired from this practice, 45 years without a cavity. Last two visits have been with other doctors who were very professional and thorough. I would recommend you give this practice a chance."

"Dr. Arena is amazing ! My Dad visiting from overseas had a Dental Emergency! I went to the office not knowing they were closing soon - words can not express the compassion and kindness the staff was ! especially Dr. Arena & his assistant. They took my Dad in and took care of his emergency. ! Forever grateful! They could have said NO sorry we are closing or just made me an appointment for the following day . Nope ! They went beyond and made my dad feel comfortable and addressed the issue . Thank You ! Thank You !"
